4 THE EVE} WASHINGTON THE EVENING STAR be Permanent circulation ia: Washington three times larger than that of tw the city. 2 This world no more than the aniverse can get rom first principles. ‘The father of clas- sic poetry sang three thousand years ago of “cloud-compellers” and “cloud-compelling.” Since so many “new” things have been shown tobe mero revirals of old forgotten science may not Homer's expressions be resolved into their probably original elements and, divested of their supernatural ascriptions, be found to relate to the discoverios of a Dyrenforth or a ‘Mothousen of that elder day,who produced rain not by concussion of the air, but by using con- eussion asan agent to condense the air by a reduction of its temperatures For we are now told that the explosion does not bring rain of ‘iteelf, for the heat generated by it is as notb- ing compared with the cold produced by the suddon explosion of the gases. In those arcbaic times there may or may not have ‘eon an agricultural department with a Farmer Rusk, who spelled his name in Greek or Trojon ‘or some other outlandish fashion, at its bead. But one thing wo do know—several of those ‘old classic codgers wrote treatises on “What I Know About Farming.” In theit metaphorical Ingo may be couched a world of meaning about rain-bringing if we only bad the key to it. Let us find this key. Meantine our expe rimenters have got to the arid and remote region of Texas, where they propose to perfect their experiments. A common misunderstanding «exists on this subject. It is all nonsense to talk of creating moisture and then preeipitat- ing it. Tne conditions must be preeent or they cannot be mannfactured to order. ‘The absurdity of expecting to produce 2 fall ofrain from a dry atmosphere by tne use of explosives has been fully set forth in Tux Sr: by PN. a well-informed contributor on weather topics. The fact is, no discovery has yet been made how to make dry rain, or rain wwithont moisture, and the balloon-exploding and all the other humbug experiments in the way of attempting to produce something from nothing, or rain from a dry eky, are certain to in disappointment. $< The Lealth department is doubtless awake to the necessities at a time like this, with the sun creating so many sources of disease, of the pection of the condition of slleys The garbage cart must make frequent visits and the health officer bo around to see that it does and that a process of general cleaning and disinfection is not inter- mitted in any direction.

Washington is quite tho center of science at present and may be permanently. The American Micro- scopical society is now in session. The As- sociation of Ofcial Agricultural Chemists will Meet on the 13th and continue its sessions un- til Saturdey. The society for the Promotion of Agricultural Science will convene on the Tith and sit twodays. The conference of American Chemists, including a meeting of the Washington Chemical society, asscmbles ‘on the same dates: the Economic Entomologist on the 1gth and 19th; the great American As- sociation for the Advancement of Science on the 17th-24th, followed on the 23d-24th by the Geologicai Society of America, and on the 25th by the International Congress of Geologists, whose seseions will be prolonged until Sep- tember 1. te Yesterday's hotness was elevated. Baltimore perspired at 94 degrees inthe shade. NewYork bad her greatest 10th of August heat in twenty years. Pittsburg, Chicago, Norfolk and other places north, east, west and south of us swel- tered and smothered. The whole world went to calculating how much longer this thing could Inst. Meentime Washington, with her wide, airy streets and abundance of shade, got through, as usual, with much less suffering than cities much For some time past there have been rumors that Minister Douglass had resigned the mission to Hayti, or that he intended to resign. His resignation, therefore, is not wholly a surprise.
