The Planets During July.
Some of the Changes That Will Tax
Place During the Coming Month.


Venus is evening star until the 18th, when,
to the regret of every loyer of the stars, she
deserts the Western sky, where she has reigned
with queenly majesty and grace for nearly
ten months. and is seen there no more. She
is not lost, however, for when she disappears
from the suns Eastern side as evening star,
she reapDears on his Western side as morning
star. This event is called her inferior coz
junction. 1t takes place on the 18th, at 9
O'Clock in the evening. She then passes be-
tween US and the sun, with her dark side
turned toward the earth, like the moon at new
moon. In like manner she made the passage
on the never-to-be-forgotten 9th of December,
1882, bat with this difference: At the present
inferior conjunction, she passes above the sun,
and is invisible. At the previous inferior con-
junction she was near one of her nodes, and
was projected on the sans surface as round
black orb, while the grand phenomenon of her
transit made the event memorable to every
observer. The like will not be seen again
until the year 2004, for, at every intervening
inferior conjunction she will pass above or
below the sun, and no mortal eye will detect
her presence as she passes.
Mercury is morning star until the 18th, and
then becomes evening star. On the 18th, at
midnight, Mercury is in superior conjunction
with the sun, thus reversing the conditions
described for Venus. He passes to the suns
Eastern side instead Of his Western, beyond
the sun, instead Of between him and the
earth, aud is at his greatest distance from the
earth, instead Of the least. The course OF the
two planets clearly illustrates the difference
between inferior and superior coBjunctions.
Although, in reality, Mercury and Venus are
as far apart as they can be, viewed from the
earth they appear to be near together, and are
in conjunction on the 18th at O'Clock In tho
morning. Venus, four hours after inferior
conjunction, encounters Mercury eleven hours
before superior conjunction. The planets
meet and pass on the celestial road, as we see
them, both morning stars at the time, the one
moving Eastward toward the sun, the other
Westward from the sun.
or the other planets, Jupiter, Mars and
Uranus are evening stars throughout the
month, while Neptune and Saturn are morn
ing stars. The July moon falls on the Sth.

RUINS AND DEATH.
Wrought by Cyclones on Saturday
CHURCHES, SCHOOL BUILDINGS
AND FACTORIES DEMOLISHED.

SIOUX CRY, Ia, July "a violent show er
swept through the southern portion of this
city last evening. A funnel-shaped cloud,
moving with greet rapidity, and giving out a
roaring sound, was one of the distinguishing
phenomena. The Catholic bell tower was
blown down, and the walls of the church so
badly shaken as to be unsafe. The new Epis-
copal mission school was wrecked. The pillow
factory, large brick building, was RACED to
the ground. Booge's packing house was seri-
ously damaged. An immense oil tank at the
oil works was blown to the ground, while a
huge pile of empty barrels, directly in front OF
the tank, was undisturbed. The plate glass
fronts of several stores were destroyed. No
casualties have been reported. The business
portion of the town was sheltered by the bluffs
and was saved.
BELMONT, N. Y, July GA terrible cyclone
passed near Belmont at noon today, doing
much damage. A farmer named Eliste Sartor
was buried under the ruins of his barn, and
lived but short time after being taken out
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July Ga great storm ragged
throughout Southern and central Illinois Fri
day night, doing damage to property of all
kinds. In Macon county it took the shape of
a cyclone, and wrecked thirty farm houses and
ruined Thousands of acres of growing crops
The telegraph wires also went down, cutting
off communication. News of the storms raw
ages are steadily coming in, and it is estmat-
ed that damage to the amount of 100000 wal

May 10, 1885, saying: "There is not nor has there
been, any company or organization for the purpose
of buying owning land raising stock or starting
rancho on the Nutria, in which you or any other
person is or interested"
A letter was also read addressed to Senator Logan
by the Convention of the Geological Survey, who
had investigated the question at the request of the
Secretary of the Interior. The writer saws under
date of June 80, 1884: "Having my attention

attempting to deprive the Zuni Indians of New
Mexico of lands, l beg to say that 1 familiar
with the facts and circumstances from a thorough
investigation of the subject made at the request of
the honorable Secretary of the Interior, and take
pleasure in stating the allegations there made are
grossly unjust to you, well to Major Tucker
and his associates, and wholly without foundation"
The last letter read was as follows:
WASHINGTON, July 2, 1884.
Hon. John 4. LOGAN:
Dear Sir In reply to your communication con-
corning the executive order of May /, 1883, ex-
tending the Zuni reservation allow me to saw that
the reservation of the Zuni Indians established
by an executive order dated March 1G, 1877.
The letter says the reported reservation lines ex
cluded valuable spring water. investigated by Mr.
James Stevenson of the Geological bure Au who
after examination reports that the Indians on the
reservation have made no use of the water of the
spring. nor occupied the land either before or since
included in the new lines of the reservation.
(The letter is signed by H. M. Teller, Secretary
Mr.. Logan, in conclusion, said
when Major Tucker and associates we're at
tackled through the newspapers and charged with
interfering with the rights of Indians and doing
great wrong, defended them through the public
press and otherwise. stand by what did then"

ADVICE to the Graduate.

Ii he goes at politics, we advise him to select
a party with much thought and attention. The
brain of a great many university men seems
added in this regard. They can't find any
party which is so absolutely good as to be good
enough for them. They rattle about ineffect-
ually, making a good deal of clatler, but doing
mighty little. There is NO way except by par
ties to govern free state, and a man who,
year in and year out, is unable to attach him
self definitely to any political organization,
either doesn't know what he wants or wants
something unattaiDable. We hope the grad
uate Of this year will not be too finical to vote,
and that he will abjure the silly affectation of
despisng politics. Let him read the papers,
read political history, study up the questions
which divide political parties, and be able to
express an intelligent opinion of their merits.
A fellow who has spent much time in studying
the affairs of the little cities of Hellas, ought
to be ashamed not to know and to care about
the politics of tho greatest republic in the
world. And If he wants to distinguish him
self in politics, we warn him from the start
that the path Of the professional kicker is rot
easy and isn't long.
