The theory °' the formation of the ordinary hailstone, or small ball of snow, is that a cloud or mass ef vapor rises into what is called the snow region of the atmos phere and is there suddenly congealed and falls to the earth; but when the stones are "as large as walnuts" and comprised of solid ice, that theory wil' not do, and the other one is that the falling rain drops are caught in the gyrations of a cyclone, carried up into freezing zone and frozen into hail, , then dropped into the rain belt or zone, and then back again—the alternate freezing and dropping causing them to , receive additional coats of ice, and thus enlarge nntil they are thrown outside the gyrations of the cyclone and fall to the earth. All this is gness work, however, and is on the par with our theories regarding earth-quakes and other things, about which we really know nothing. A MEETING of the borough members of the County Committee and the City Committee was held in Republican headquarters, over Eyth's stationary store, Monday evening, to arrange for political work dnring the coming cam paign. Meetings of all the Ward Com mittees were called for this (Thursday) evening in Headquarters. All Repub licans are urged to attend. It should be conclusively proven this fall that Butler is a Republican town. WAR NOTES. In the several engagements of last week the Japs were generally success ful; driving the Russians from their positions near Haicheng, and advanc ing their own lines toward Liao Yang, the railroad town that has been the base of the Russians for some time. The last reported engagement was at Au-shan-chan, from ten to twenty miles north of Haicheng, which wat evacuated by the Russians. At the end of the week one division of Kuroki's army was threatening Muk den and another Liao Yang, while the third seemed to have joined the armies of Nodzu and Oku, near Hai Cheng. The Russians were retreating and eon centra ting—fighting for time and reinforcements —but the climax was ex pected to come any day. army is said to number •bout 120,000 men, while the different Jap armies contain nearly double that number: and besides this one division ofKuroki s army was said to be in po sition to interfere with the retreat of the Russians should they attempt to change their base to Mukden or Har bin. Field artillery is playing a very im portant part in this war. each army has about 800 pieces but the Japs are the beet marksmen. A Jap army is said to have landed up the Liao river, to the west of the Rus sian position, and if Kuroki has headed them off to the north, as reported, then Kuropatkin must risk all in a general engagement, for he is practically sur rounded. On Monday a general advance of all the Jap armies was reported, the inten tion being to attack all the Russian po sitions from Liao Yang to Mukden, simultaneously; and on Tuesday the Russians were again reported aB retreat ing to Mukden, to eave themselves from Kuroki's flanking movement. At Port Arthur, the Japs, according to reports from Tokio had penetrated to the third line of the Russian defenses but yesterday's papers reported another repulse for them, Monday night. The prize court at Vladivostok, after due investigation,finds that the British steamship Knight Commander, which was sunk by Russian cruisers, was a lawful prize, her cargo being wholly contraband. The cargo consisted chief ly of railway materials, which the ves sel's papers showed to have been con signed through a Japanese port to Chemulpo, with the manifest purpose of using it in the construction of the Japanese military railroad from Seoul to the Yalu river. Y. P. C. U. Convention. The annual Presbyterial convention of the Young Peoples' Christian Union of the United Presbyterian church, was held last Wednesday and Thursday in the historic old Harmony church, near Harrisville.

In the afternoon S. S. Atwell spoke, his subject being "Sum ming Up the Evidence." The closing address was the convention's feature. It was delivered by Rev. C. R. Watson, secretary of the Church Board of For eign Missions. Rev. Watson, a young man, was the son of a missionary and was born in Egypt and educated in this country, graduating from the Alleghe ny Seminary with Rev. A. R. Robinson. Rev.

Littell, Zelienople. is correspond ing secretary. Pastor C. 8. Meanor dis missed the assemblage with prayer and benediction. The High Privilege of tin- Voter. (John Brisben Walker in the Cosmopol itan.) When American citizenship shall have reached its highest development, the duty of voting will no longer be a careless, perfunctory, ill-studied and hastily performed act. There will be a preparatory ceremo ny, in which the citizen will stand be fore his fellow men and, with uplifted hand, solemnly affirm that in exercising the high duties devolving upon him as a voter, he — Has studied with diligence the issues presented for decision; Has made carefnl inquiry concerning the integrity and administrative abili ties of the candidates in nomination: Will cast his vote without prejudice, without personal bias, without influence by money or promise of any personal advantage, direct or indirect; Will, in casting his vote, have regard solely and entirely to the benefit of the country at large if the vote be national, or if local, with reference to the good of the community. Eventually the voter will come to recognize that a failure to fulfil this duty earnestly, thoroughly and with highest integrity, should expose him to the contempt of his fellow citizens, and should disfranchise him from the exer cise of the high privilege of voting—and he will understand that corrupt voting brings in its train wars, panics, loss of income, and suffering in a thousand ways. If, after solemnly making this affirm ation in the presence of his fellow cit izens, the voter proceeds to the secrecy ot the voting-booth, who doubts that he will not, in nine cases out of ten, act differently from the careless, thoughtles?, ill-judging, selfish or corrupt man who today retards by his vote the destiny of our Republic? Within the past twenty years, corrup tion at the polls has increased with a rapidity that appals those who have read the history of the republics of Rome and Greece. Something must be done to rescue the average citizen from his indifference to and ignorance of the power contained in his vote. Men must be educated systematically through vil lage societies, and above all, the public schools must take up the training of the child to the importance of the func tion which he will eome day exercise as a citizen. Penalties for bribery at the polls are already severe. But in every town there must be a society whose business it is to pursue the briber and the bribed until the doors of the penitentiary close upon them. And the only legal excuse for absence from the polls should be a certificate of ill health or certified ab sence from the county. Hitherto we have neither educated our schoolchildren in the duties they will some time exercise as voters, nor surrounded the voters themselves with such safeguards as will elevate them to a comprehension of the high responsi bility entrusted to them. And if it continues to go unchecked, bribery at the polls will overthrow the Republic. Prospect. The Gallagher reunion will be held at the lite residence of Furgeson Gallagh er, dee'd, Aug. 27, 1904.
