A Weather Prophecy.

As Christmas day comes this year upon
Thursday, the following quotation from
an ancient MSS in the British Museum
is pertinent for publication at the outset
of winter as a prophecy of coming events
the approaching year:
II Xmas dry on Thursday be,
windy weather ye STALL see;
Windy weather in each week,
The hard ten pests strong and thick;
The summer snail be good and dry,
Corn aud beans shall multiply;
That ear is good for laDds To till;
Kings and Princes shall die by skill;
If child born that day shall be,
1t shall happen right we'll for he;
OF deeds he shall be good and stable,
Wise of speech and reasonable ~
whose that day goes thieving about,
He shall be punished without doubt:
Anu If Sickness that day betide,
It shall quickly from thee glide.

The national Gunra.. Armory.

That portion Of Ryland's building on
Clark street, next TO the ditch, is being
fitted up as an armory for the National
Guard. The room is large enough to ad-
nit Of the drilling Of a good sized squad.
The boys propose to make it an armory
that will reflect credit npon their COM
pany, and also intend to increase the eff
cheney Of their organization. They are
all young men, and take a lively interest
in its success. Messrs. Duffy aud Reynolds
were engaged yesterday in making a gun
rack. which is a model in its way. We
are glad to see that the Guards have en-
tered upon their work with sueh zest, for

Early last fall Nj. W. II. Clark received
a large consignment Of Eastern apples,
which were stored in the cellar connected
with his store. Last week he concluded it
was time TO look after them, and on Satur-
day a number Of boxes were opened. Al
though So long a time had elapsed since
storing, they were found to lie as FRI sh and
luscious as when first received. and were
Immediately gobhled by retail dealers.
Mr.. Clark attributes their preservation to
the even temperature that always exists in
his cellar, and says that many articles that
would decay in a week or two if exposed
have kept for months IN it. A good deal
Of money was expended in constructing
this cellar, but the results attained have
more than justified the cost.

An Account or the recent ARRAY fn
ward.

WAEMs
The "Refex' contains full particulars
concerning the stabbing Of Pete McCabe
by s. p. Clifford in Ward. McCate. it ap-
pears, was stabbed no less than seven
times. Mr.. L. A. Clifford stated to the
Reflex" that lie had just came ont Of Hip
Bros store on the morning Of the ARRAY,
and heard the cry Of murder" on the
other side OF the street, and thought at
first it proceeded from the Chinese restau-
rant, but on going to the door found it was
in the photograph gallery. Without stand
ing on ceremony, he burst open the door
and found Clifford standing behind Nc
Cabe with a dagger in his right hand and
q pistol in his left, both Of which McCabe,
In reaching back, had succeeded in getting
hold Of, and then cried murder" Clifford
at once dispossessed Clifford of the pistol
and succeeded in separating them. Nc
Cabe then turned and demanded the pistol
Of Clifford, which was refused, ~whereupon
McCabe pulled a pistol from his pocket and
snapped it ut Clifford, who stood with his
knife brandished. At this stage of the
proceedings, Constable White appeared
upon the scene and arrested Clifford, and
for the want Of a Jail, he was placed in
Harvey, Clement x Co.'s cellar, from
which, with but little difficulty, he
escaped. That he escaped is not a matter
of wonder to those who have since inspected
the cellar. Remnants Of hardware. picks,
an ak, boxes and barrels, and all that a
man stood in need of, in case he wanted to
6 t out Of that, were at his disposal. How
lie slipped the handouts without damaging
them still remains a mystery. Those who
who were r, sponsibie for the prisoners APP
pearauce in Court have but little to be
proud Of. When it was announced to- the
officers OF the law that Clifford had escaped
there was a -'Eurrying to and fro" but be-
fore a horse could he, or was saddled for
the pursuit, the prisoner was we'll on his
Wayne matter where he was "pinted."
The last heard OF Clifford he stopped at
Withington's ranch in White River Valley,
the day after his escape. He was there
met by a Grand Juror on his way to
Hamilton. The interview was to the effect
that Clifford was making for Typo. hut the
Grand Juror knew not of the offence COM
mitted by Clifford before leaving Ward,
aud was permitted to proceed on his way.
That is the last intelligence We have from
Mr.. Clifford. DR.. Hagar, the attending
physician entertains no hope of McCabe's
recovery. Six of the wounds are mere sur
face cuts, but the one III the abdomen near
the navel is an ugly wound.
