Wea ther Guessing for February.


Nennor, the "Canuck" weather
prophet, in his monthly bulletin,
predicts n recurrance of December
warm wave during February.
Professor Mansill, the planetary
meteorologist of Rock Island, H.,
insists that "the temperature for
February should average little
above the mean of the season, both
in Europe and the United States,
though the month is likely to be
stormy, particularly from the Sd to
5th, and from the 18th to tho 2lst.
Professor Tice, the weather fore.
caster of st, Louis, outlines the
features Of the weather for this
mouth as follows: "l-3, very heavy
storms; rs, clear and cold; 6.lo,
cloudy, ending in heavy storms;
lo-l1, fair; 1915, cloudy, ending in
snow storms; i6.l7, clear; 1921,
threatening, ending in snow storms;
1922, clear; 1926, threatening, with
severe storms on the 2Gth; 27-2s,
fair and cold.
The astrological prophet who ro-
cords his prediction in the "Scho-
lastic Annual of Notrc Dame Uni
yersity, says that on the 9Th OF
February, Mercury being IN the
watery sign OF f'tsccs, Venus in
Aquarius, Mars in Gemini, and the
moon decreasing in Virgo, storms
will take place, with warm winds,
breaking up and thawing iee and
snow. The activity and brilliancy
Of Mercury indicate very variable
weather through the whole month.
Flowing will begin but will be in
terrupted."

LET THERE BE LIGHr.--ln many
large villages and small cities streets
are artiticially lighted. Why should
the same not be done in Mineral
Point? Spirit gas or kerosene lamps
might be used. In some places the
lighting is done directly by corpor-
ate authority, in others the city or
village erects the lamps in such
number, and at such points as to
have the lights distributed for the
best advantage of all, and pay to
the owners or occupants of property
in front of which the lamps are
placed small sum annually for
lighting and furnishing the same.
One hundred lamps on our princi-
pal streets, would cost but little and
the expense of running them after
erected not worth mentioning The
common council might make the
improvement with perfect confidence
of approval by the people. Let it
be done.

The parents of children snould
visit our public schools at least once
each term. If the children find that
their parents are sufficiently inter-
ested in the progress they are MAX
ing to occasionally call in at the
school room and see how they are
getting on they will be encouraged
to renewed efforts to make the most
of their time and improve in their
studies as fast as possible. The
teachers will always be glad to well

One day last week a young man
living near Prairie du Chen met
with terrible accident. He had
taken metallic she'll from his breech-
loading shot gun, and was picking
out the wad over the shot with a
knife. The cartridge exploded, de-
stroying his right eye, tearing away
the flesh aud bone over the eye and
temple, fracturing the skull, and
some of the brain exuded from the
ghastly wound. The doctor in at
tendance thinks he will recover.

"A SUGGESTION No one will gain
say that our sidewalks are discredit
to the city. The condition Of our
walks, gradually growing worse from
year to year is conclusive that pri-
vate enterprise and individual effort
on the part of property owners is
not sufficient to keep up repairs. A
new method is demanded and the
only effective one is, to make care
and construction Of walks, duty Of
the city authorities, and meet the ex-
pense thereof by taxation, the same
as for other public improvements.
Therefore we suggest that our city
Charter be Immediately amended so
as to accomplish the reform neces-
sary. A word from our common
Council to Assemblyman Rewey
will insure the necessary legislation.

Why is it so few of our merchant

Why is it so few of our merchants
use printed letter and bill headings,
envelopes, ETC.? Perhaps with an
eye to economy. But there's where
they make their mistake. It's actu,
ally cheaper to buy paper by the
ream, and printed, than TO get it in
blank form, by the quire. This is
the plain fact-figures won't lie.
And while this subject is on deck,
we will state that at the TRIB JNE

WITH Saturday night came the
most snow we have had thus far this

together with the hopes of many
who went out for a good ride.
