Truth Strange than Fiction.
From the Chicago Tribune

From the Chicago Tribune.
A remarkable occurrence recall
ing in some of it's features the sto-
ries recounted in the Arabian
Nights, took place recently on Wood
street. A handsome cottage on that
street is tenanted by a young coup
lie who last year made their bridal
tour to California, Oregon and
Washington Territory. While en-
gagged in salmon fishing on one of
the rivers, the bridegroom was so
unfortunate as to drop into it's cur
rents valuable diamond ring be-
longing to his wife. The loss of the
gem was, of course mourned, but
after awhile the incident was for
gotten, nor was recalled till Last
Thursday evening, when the young
husband, returning late at night
from taking stock, discovered that
his wife had prepared for supper q
can of salmon. Taxing it up. he
looked carefully at the label, and
said: "Why, Marion, this salmon
was put up at the very place where
1 lost your ring last summer.
Wouldn't it be odd if salmon had
swallowed it, and been caught and
canned at that very factory and put
into this very can, and we should
find the ring in it ?" His wife an
swered him jestingly, but he said
81 don't know how to account for il
but have sort of presentiment
that shall find that ring vet in
some such romantic manner" She
had scarcely said "Don't be a goose
Gus" when her eye caught the gilt
ter of something metallic in the can
and she fairly screamed, Goodness
gracious me, what's that ?" Hel
husband, who was scarcely less ex
cited than herself, removed the for.
eign substance with fork, when,
what was his surprise to discover
that it was indeed a big lump o
solder, which in soldering the car
had been permitted to fall into it

Prof. Tice gave US, during the
winter of 1S74-5, an accurate fore
cast of the weather for the Spring
and Summer of 1875. His predic-
tons concerning the present winter
have been reasonably fulfilled-not
accurately, perhaps, as those res
pecting the previous summer, but
with reasonable fidelity. Certainly
he is the most reliable weather
prophet we have ever had in this
country, and hense what he says of
the coming year is of Interest. He
refers to all the Mississippi and
Missouri valley. regions including
Kansas:
The Professor, predicts eleven
days rain in April and ten in March.
He looks for warm weather to COM
mence about the middle of March,
to grow warmer till about the first
of April, when for q few days it
will be colder. From the 9Th of
April he predicts continued warm
weather. He predicts of next June |:
lst to 9Th weather unsettled !; 9th to
10th, threatening with heavy show
ers, and in some localities hail
storms and tornadoes 11th to 18th,
weather generally settled; 18th to
22d, unsettled with many thunder
and wind storms; oath to end of
month, favorable weather except
the last day or SO, when heavy
showers may be expected.
OF July, he predicts: LIST to 7th,
stormy; many very heavy local
rains and some tornadoes; from
7th to 18th, weather generally set
tied 18th to 18th and 14th, rain,
with severe storms in some local
tiles; 18th to 22d, weather generally
dry and very warm; 22d, to 25th,
weather threatening and showry !;
in some localities heavy rains.
The balance of the month generally
clear and warm.
From these predictions we may
expect a very early spring, with
warm, showery, growing" wealth.
er in May or June-sixteen days
of warm, rainy or cloudy weather
in the former and at least nineteen
days in the latter month. We may
also expect q warm and compare
lively dry July, with some showry
weather during the first few days,
and further on, a few local storms.
There are other facts and OBJ
servstions to confirm Prof. Tice's
predictions. First, the SHOWS in
the mountains have been unusual
ly heavy this winter heavier, even,
than last winter. Second, the win
ter has been dry, and it is, there
fore, likely to be followed by wet
spring. Third, the winter has
been unusually mild, and last sum-
mer was unusually cool; so we
may reasonably expect that July
and August will be very warm.
