Explanation tif Such Ocsth-OeallRo Winds ss Those Which ftcntly Deviated the Atlantic Coast. The fearful destruction caused by recent storms along the Atlantic coast has drawn an unusual amount of public attention to the subject of the storms, which, having their origen In the West Indies, occasionally Bweep across the ocean to the United States. A hurricane mav be best netined by likening -it to a great atmospheric eddy a whirlwind on a gigantic scale, the diameter of which is not a few feet, but uianj hundreds of miles, at times a thousand or n-re. Io trne primal cause of these great atmospheric disturbances is not positively known, but is the subject of deep interest to the scien tific world. Various causes have been assigned from time to time, but they are mere conjectures theories only. Passing over the sources the uostou tieraui cicscrmes t.'iem as they are. They are areas of baro metric depression, similar to the lows" so familinr to all who have seen the dailr weather maps of the weather bureau, but of vastly greater intensity than most of them. That is to say, the pressure at the center is far less, and the velocity of the in flowing air far greater than the. orui nary storm areas of higher latitudes. At the centre of the hurricane there is an area ol calm, varvmuc botween tea and thirty in diameter, with clear 3ky and bright sunlight or starlight overhead. So perfect is this calm that, it is related, nnring the passage over a West Indian city of a devas tating hurricane, when the culm area nan muking its passage, a lighted candle could be carried through the streets without being extinguished and this but a few minutes before and after the most furious of gales ! Hutjust without this omiaous y peace ful region the hurricane rages with its greatest Tory. Ttic winds bio with 8ucii appalling force that not only are the stoutest sails often torn to shreds, but the spares themselves are frequently bent until they snup like twigs. The howling and shriek ingof the wind as it passes through the rigging at times makes it impos sible for the human voice to be heard from one side of the ship to the other even with the aid of a speaking trum pet. Nor is it a sU-ady blow, for fright ful sqiials follow each other in rapid succession, and the direction of tue wind shifts suddenly from time to time through wide arcs of the com pass. Overheat' arc clouds so douse that even nt noontime the ship is often shrouded in the darkness nignt, wnne torrents of ram pour from the inky clouds. Beneath the denser clouds low-lying send flies at great velocity, as if in terror, over head, adding to th picturesque hor ror of the scene. But even more terrible than the wind ami rain are the mountainous seas that flood the shores assailed oy tne storm or threaten to engulf the unhappy ship, whose commander, through misfort una or through unskillful maneuver ing, uas permitted tier to come so close to the vortex of the hurricane. A curious feature of violent hurri canes is tue aosence ot tnunaer. lightning and other electric phe nomena. Indeed, when other indica tions point to the approach of a hur ricane, tne dwellers intne west in dies keep a br ght lookout for elec tric phenomena, and if such are observed they rest more easily in the conviction that the tempest will not be a severe one. The devastation wrought by these awful tempests is almost beyond belief to those who have not experi enced them. Not only are ships at sea battered and wrecked, but on shore houses are unroofed and torn down, debris is hurled with frightful force, maiming and killing those in it? way, trees torn up, crops ruined and destruction spread far and wide. But violent wind is not the only cause of disaster in- these storms. The huge seas and the tremendous storm waves are equally to be dread- fid. nd at times are the source or even more destruction than the gales themselves. In tho great hurricane of 1772, which devastated the Islands of St. Christopher's. Antigua, St. Croix and others, in the u est In dies, it is stated that at St. Croix the sea rose to a height ot 70 feet above its nsu&l level, roaring so that its noise Was heard 1 0 miles 'away Ttrvertook and enaulfe'd over 250 who were running to the moutains to escape from it. At Savanala-Mar, which was totally destroyed by a hurricane in 1780, it is related that "the gale began on Out. S. from the southeast at 1 p. m., abating about Oct. 9. The sea during this last period exhibited a most awful scene. The waves swelled' to an, amazing height, rushed with an impetuously SON Roxboro, North Carolina; Thursday, October, 19th 1893. No. 10. not to be described, on land, and in a few minutes determined the fate f all th houses in the bay." In the necond great October hurricances ol the same year, which ravaged Mar tinique, an awful swell of the sea "destroyed in an instance upwards of 150 houses on the seashore, of which thirty or forty were newly built; those behind them had mostly their fronts driven in and the goods con tained in them almost totally lost." At Barbadoes "the sea rose so high as to destroy the forts." Havana, Cuba, is a magnificent landlocked harlnir, bnt even this fact does not furnish a safeguard against the dreaded hurticanos. During the great hurricane of Oct. 10, 1846, in the harbor of Havana 216 vessels wore isunk at their moorings ahVl nearly 2,000 houses were demolished, with appalling loss of life. In the great September hwrricane of 1888 the town of Sagua la Grande, Cuba, was almost wholly destroyed, the unhappy isle experiencing a loss of imly 1,000 lives and $1,000,000 worth of property. The same hum cane brought death and destruction at Proiir i-so and Vem-Cruz, floods and gales along the eastern Mexican coast and was the can. to of tiie loss of many a good vessel in it path.

A New York dis patch announces that an electric shoe-blacking machine is the latest candidate for public fovor. You sit down before an upright box, with two holes in the side that make it look like the old-time public stocks. Your feet are put into these holes, the operator turns on the current that works a set of brushes revolving on a belt and in a couple of minutes the urocess is over.

In the Sessions Court today Judge Hudson sustained the motion to qnash the indictments against parties selling rice beer and liquors under the dis nensarv act. The grounds were that the indictments were defective in form and the dispensary feature of the act unsconstitutional, as a State government cannot- engage in trafic law wanting in , the elements of.a police power; and the act cannot rest upon the rea"sons on which a gejperal prohibition law is founded. HOr1E FIRST: Highest 6f all in Leavening Power. &ru ht'i n -izl i ABSOWfELY FUZ52 MAKING MANURE, On nearly all farms winter is much the best season for making .hauling out and applying manure. The stook are nearly always kept in close quarters and . there is much . more time for hauling out and applying. without interfering with the other work. But if the most manure is to be made during the winter, it is impor tant to arrange good quarters for the stock, eo that the feeding can all be done in one place. Then by supply ing beddmg enough to absorb all ol the liquid voiding a considerable quauity of manure may be saved. AjVery good plan of management especially during tk- fall and early winter, is to shelter t he siock regu- larly at night and on cold, stormy day and feed them liar, but when llie w-ai.litr will pi nut turn them of.t into the lued lot dtirinif the day and ref i tnem liberally with corn fodder. In this r.ay an opportunity for exercise is afforded them. Near ly all stock, espocinlly young, g'row- inc stock, will keep healthier and '.hriftier If they are given opportunity fr,r . exercise. While it i nearly always best to feed the corn fodder in the head lots rather than in the stables or shed, there should be con venient ra- ks or mangers, both in the feed lot and the stables, in order to avoid waste. The stable and feed lota for the winter feeding and sheltering sohuld be arranged for in good season so that when needed they will be ready. Another item that should b looked after in good season is that of providing a Hood supply of bedding. Plenty of bed- ding-will not only help to inorease the manure, but also to add very much to the comfort and cleanliness of the stock. It is best to procure a good supply and store under shel- ter where it will be kept dry and can be used as needed. Wheat or oat straw makes ; the best bedding, Enough shouldf ulways be supplied to absorb and retain the liquid void- ing and also to keep the stock clean, In the stables care should be taken to supply the bedding regularly at night. Usually in the feed lots tne refused stalks and material that the stock will not eat will make all the bedding needed. If it does not, it will be a goinl plan to scatter over it larer of straw. With care in this nay a considerable quantity of val uable fertilizer may be secured. Still Plundering ana" Killing. Buenos A Vitus, Oct. 11.

One of the most perplexing prob lems with whioh the State has to deal is how to so- employ the peni tentiary convicts, as to make them profitable and self-sustaining, and yet not,bring them in competition with any other class of labor. This is a knotty question, and the recent destruction of the growing crops upon the Roanoke farms has not at all helped to solve it, but has caused many to advocate the entire discon-. tinuauce of tho Stale fanns, auu the employment ofthe ct nvicts in some other way. Many suggestions in this direction have at different times been made, but a yet none of thejn have been deemed practicable or have been triod. At one time there Wtt9 H plail to employ many of them on the iasitle of the prison in the manufacture of jute bagging, but th8 n!n seems to hare hfn hnil.,r.Aft iitiriti-r t!t I..tri!..tnr t,o &t a few who advocotfd the employ. ment of this labor in the mines and th establishment of furnaces for melting the iron ore of the State. This scheme, however, was likewise never pat into operation. There is another plan, however, that has found many advocates for a number of years. It is the employ ment of this labor in public road improvement. And it is only daeuaan- Oue woman was serving out to the inanv difficulties and Binnn attendant upon the management of r the convicts that this scheme has never been put to a practical test, The matter will be brought forward. it is said, at the road congress in this citr Ontnher 1 ftt.h nrf will ho ,i,a I cussed with a view to the extensive! employment of theconvicts in such work, if proper safeguards can be thrown around it and the cost to the oounties will nokbe too great. There has been a general desire thut the convicts should be thus em- ployed for a long time, and if it can be made practicable, well-directed labor of this kind will save millions of dollars to the State. There is nothing the State needs worse than good roads, and it is to. be hoped that some means may be devised by which this plan may be put into sue cessful operation.
