Will This Be n Hot summer9


 Indiana Pharmacist predicts that this will prove O hot summer upon the following theory, which has been advanced by others: The weather seems to run in cycles of about seven years; that is, when we have Q hot summer, it is always followed by cold one, and it takes about seven years to reach an- other equally hot. It will be remembered by many that the summer of 1867 was very hot and so dry that during August the grass crumbled under the feet when trod upon. The summer of 1868 was noted for its cool ness, the thermometer very seldom getting above s5 degs., and we did not reach the top wave of thermality again until 1874, when it was extremely hot. The following summer was cold to a remarkable degree. From then on the summers grew gradually warmer until 1881, which was excessively hot and very dry, no rain falling for over nine weeks, and there were more sunStrokes that summer than there has been in all the summers since. The summer of 1882 was quite cold; few flakes of snow fell on the morning of July 4, followed by hail in the afternoon, and during the rest of the month and through the month of August the tenn perature was so low that overcoats were necessary for comfort, particularly at night. The summers sInce 1882 have grown warmer and warmer, and last summer was moder ately hot one, but unless all signs fail, the coming summer will be the climax of the cycle, and hot, dry season may be expected.

The Approximation Bin.

The committee ON estimates and appropri-
ations have been hard at work on the bill
for the coming year. They have not con-
cluded their labors. but we understand that
they have cut down as closely as possible
the demands Of the different city commit
tees. They think when the bill is presented
the total amount will be no greater and pos
sibly something less than last year.
The City Building will require for new
boiler and for stating $4,000 additional to
last years appropriation. The drains and
sewers appropriation is cut down $500. No
appropriation will be required for Evergreen
Cemetery. 1t was $1,000 last year. The Fire
Department appropriation will be $4,000 less,
and includes also $1,000 towards new house.
The fire salaries will be increased $3.50, on
account of the new Hayes truck. The street
lamps appropriation is $15OOmore, for napth-
tina lamps, but not for electricity or gas.
The Health Department is increased $4,000,
but this includes the expense of culyerts u.s.
ualy credited to the drains and sewers and
the new offal contract which is double the
price of that of last year. The police sala-
ries, it will be remembered are $1750 more
this year than last. The public contingent
is $500 more. The public buildings APP.
preparation is $1,000 less, and includes the ex-
pense for new arm cries. Under the head of
salaries $1,000 more are required for the ex-
pense of elections. The streets and sidewalks
appropri ations are cut down from $780,
900 asked to $4,000, and they may be cut
more; the $65,000 is an increase of $1,000
The support Of poor sum is 5000 more. The
schools wanted $4,000 and are cut down to
S22, 600 The school salaries are increased
$500, but this is cut down of $500 from
the sum asked for Last year the marginal
way appropriation was $4,000. The same
couldn't be used for the purpose and was
partly devoted to other matters. This year
the appropriation is $4,000 less the amount
remaining unexpended of the $4,000 of last
year. Electrical appliances receive $500, a
cut down of $1,000 from the sum asked for.
The Public Library asked for $1,000. They
got $4,000. The schools ask for special APP
preparation of $4,000 for new school house
and repairs. They will get cut down to
$4,000, which is $1,000 less than last year and
the house out entirely. But the city will
reserve the hay-scale lot for the school COM
mittee till nexG next year, when the hay
scales will probably be removed to the mar
ket lot.
Other appropriations show nc change
from those Of last year.
The city income shows falling off of
$4,000, from loss of Old City Hall rent and
other matters

BEFORE JUDGE HASKELL.

ELLSWORTH, April 81.
John p. Gordon VS.. Franklin Land, Mill and
Lumber Company. An action to recover for the
value of 70 cords of stave wood, 10000 hemlock
timber and 5000 spruce ana pine carried away
and lost by breaking away OF a dam owned by the
defendant company, on Franklin stream. at the
outlet OF DOnnelPs pond, in Franklin. This dam
was situated above dam and mill on the same
stream, occupied by William ii. Card. The tim
Der and slaves were held in the Card mill pond
and upon its banks. The plaintiff introduced tes-
tlmony to show that the defendant company neg
ligenty allowed the upper dam to become de-
cayed and rotten and unsuitable for holding water
and that on May 2, 1887, during heavy freshet,
the dam gave way, sweeping out the lower dam
the moment the flood reached it, with the timber
and stages which were never recovered.
The defendant claimed that the dam was under
the control Of Card, who occupied below under a
verbal lease for one year. The defense intro
duced testimony TO show that in the fall of 1886,
Mr. harrington, the company's agent, agreed with
Card to give hun the privilege of sucing his logs
through the dam, in consideration of which he was
TO put the dam In repair and keep it in repair for
the term of the lease. Card testified that Far
rington offered him the privilege of sluicing his
logs through the dam If he would take care Of the
dam, but that he never assented, and that there
was no trade about it, that though Harrington
may have understood il as a contract, he did not

That Tired Feeling

Is experienced by almost everyone at this season,
and many people resort to Hoods Sarsaparilla to
drive away the languor and exhaustion. The
blood laden with impurities which have been ac-
cumulating for months, moves sluggishly through
the veins, the mind fails to think quickly, and the
body is still slower to respond. Hoods Sersapa-
rlla is just what is needed. 1t pures, vitalizes,
and enriches the blood makes the head clear,
creates an appetite, overcomes that tired feeling,
tones the nervous system, and imparts new
strength and vigor to the whole body.
