In this connection it is in teresting to note that throughout the world there are forty-four thousand thunderstorms a day—three nundred and sixty thousand lightning flashes an hour. In 'the world there are three thousand stations where daily obsereatious are j made of thunderstorms.. Contrary to po -1 pillar belief, the heaviest and most fre quent thunderstorms do not occur around the Equator. The worst are in what are called the “rain belts”, that lie at some distanee on either side of that line. Java is said to be the most thundery place on earth, but even as far north as Florida and as far south ns the Trans vaal thundertsonhs are frequet and tre mendous force. In a large part of Cen tral America thunderstpms occur almost daily during half the year. I n Ethiopia the average number of thunderstorms is 25(1 a- year; on the Gold Coast, about one hundred. Italy holds, the European record with between forty and fifty yearly; Paris Ims only twenty-seven. The localities most free from thunderstorms are the regions around the Poles, where thund er is very rarely heard. Jim. Emma i.eutin of Kcwanee coun ty is Wisconsin’s first woman sheriff. THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE Sfcittrf®B£ I » , BY CHARLES P. STEWART NEA Service Writer WASHINGTON— The monkey trial hasn't alone entertained the rest of the world. It haa even puzzled some foreign governments. ) Official diplomatic reports have gone confidentially from Washing ton to several of them, it leaks out. seeking to analyse, for wondering old world statesmen's benefit, the psychology and mental slant of a people among whom so amazing a case was possible. . ,„• • • rAT the anti-evolution " pro ceedings actually have cost , America a certain amount of International prestige is the opin ion of some state department of -1 ficials who make it their business J to keep posted concerning . the country's standing abroad. _ J f If you don't befteve it, they say. look at the foreign newspapers which are beginning to come in with their stories and comments ion the Payton trial. Certainly these papers do bear out the of ficials’ contention that no coiintry ever was the, puft of such world wide ridicule as this one has been .in the last few weeks. BLSfNJSSS ANIJ TfU£ OLTLQOK. 1 Philadelphia Record. T h e closing iveejt es the seventh month of 1!)25 in its general aspects is endouraging for industry and trade. The director of the Jtnrenu of Musi ness i{e searcK, of the I’niVersity of New Vdrk. looks for \yhat he calk* “a moderate im : prdvement in business.” It j s • now oil the average somewhere between 10 and 15 I>er cent, better than it was a year ago. We must remember that a year ago business was at the bottom of the 1!)24 recession. The relatively high* level now, however, is encouraging, in that it indicates that any upturn will start from a considerably higher level than existed last summer. Most of those industries which have been declining have evidently reached’ the bottom, and the necessary readjustments have beqgi riiade to put them on a stable basis.” 1 The coal and textiles industries have their owu special difficulties. The anthracite situation shows no change in the deadlock between operators and miners, while in the .bituminous coal fields the non-union production is dis placing union coni in the market be cause so many of the ufiioin mines are shut down rather than - continue to pay $7.50 a day as a mitifizini wagge. an against $4 50 paid to the non-union miner. In the textile Aftiution there ap pear to be various honfplications. First, the Governnientx't* estimate On the cot ton crop, putting the prospective yield at 13,588,Q00 hales, gave the trade ail unexpected surprise, so that instead of 20-cent cotton as a basis of manufactur ing cost the figures arc considerably higher than a week ago. and this dis turbs the cloth market. Then the an nouncement of a 10 per cent, wage re duction by the American Woolen Com pany and other Now England concerns, effective today, adds to industrial un certainty. as it is not known whether the wagge cut will be accepted or re jected By the employee-. Reports to Dun's Review show more firmneds in commodity prices, relatively large demands in various trades, and an improvement in sentiment us distinctive phases of the curret business situation. A contraction of activity usually oc curs in mid-summer, yet much less of 't appears at present than was the case a year ago; fundamental conditions nr# sound, and there is si -olid basis for! future expansion. Improvement in the great basic sled industry appears in cartons districts, though the price situation still exhibits fTRUE BY CONDO I fiUfeU —S. eve* RETT'S iA/|fv S 1 ! -HA'S AlrAiDtS.

IT'S HERE tt may have seemed as if the monkey Joke was main-) ly on Tennessee, bat Ten* nessee means nothing to foreign editors. They simply see, in gen eral the United States. The Ten nessee law is national, for all they know. So it’s the whole United States that's Joshed. It isn't very good natured joshing, either. « Uncle Sam isn’t overly popular in Europe. Europe owes him too much. For that very reason Europeans can't get too funny with him to his face, but among themselves it’s a Joy to make a monkey out of him. i That’s why they grabbed on the Scopes cose so enthusiastically. ♦ • • OF couijse the other countries, which are doing the laughing, each has peculiarities of its own—maybe just as gueer as ours are. / The entire worUJ, family’s intelligence—or lack of it—proba bly levels up—or down—to about the same general average. Just now, however, it happens that Americans have been pulling one of their freak stunts. Less dangerous than Europe's favorite kind, which so often include hom icide, it convulsed the old world witn laughter— except a few seri ous-minded Individuals ,ln whose breasts it aroused doubts of such , a performance's sanity. «igns of weakness, with further <-on cessions noted in the Chicago section. The steel manufacturers seem to be of the opinion that there will be a steady and reliable ,increase during the re mainder of tin* summer, witlj a good swing into the fall trade. Bookings of fabricated steel In .Tune substantially ; exceeded these of May, and The Iron | Age reports that pending structural steel projects involve -J0,500 tons. With wage inductions impending in the textile mills, and mixed opinions as to the real situation; in the London wool “ auct ion, where I here were ..some price i-e --cessions and 'withdrawals’ reported, the wdol trade is'quirt. The American Woo’- ■on (,'ompnny’s. opening of spring lines ■ f men'll- wear staples today ami tomorrow will give a line on policy and prices under the new regime. The belief is general that prices will be cut to induce ! early ordering. Fall silks are moving quite freely, and spot goods are wanted in most S stnnces. Xo\v that rayon is appearing generally under its own name the in dustry seems to be i streugthening its position. The hide markets have again advanced. The upper leather market is firmer, with patent leather tanners talk ing advances. Weather conditions in the American and Canadian Xortwest gave a weaker tone to the. Chicago grain market last week. Bullish news apparently is ignor ed. As eotnpnrcd with the previous week wheat closed with net losses of 5 1-4 to - r >-8 cents, white corn was olt 1-4 to 2 1-4 cents, oats 3-4 cent to 1 cent, and rye 4 1-2 to 4 5-8 cents. Could Not Be Mobbed By His Court. Xewtou Xews Enterprise. If there is to be any violence, it is better for the prisoner to be lynched by the mob than to be mobbed bv the court —W. A. Hoke. The above words of truth and wisdom were spoken by Judge Hoke when ho was a Superior court judge. A negro was hailed into his court charged with a capital assault on a white woman. It was intimated that if the negro was not tried at once, that there might be a lynching of the negro- The judge replied in the words above, there was no lynching and the negro was tried in tin orderly v,ay. !
