money at the forced cash sale of c. H.

De Woes Forecasts.

HE PREDICTS HEAVY STORMS FOR AUGUST.
A. ]. DeVoe, who calls himself meter
ologist makes the following prediction for
August:
During the past year I have discovered
that the causes which produce a cloud burst
move northeastward, that is if a cloud burst
occurs in Pennsylvania to day, in a certain
number of days a cloudburst will occnr in
New York state or Massachusetts, The cause
which produce tornadoes moves in a south
westerly direction. Taking these facts into
consideration, and looking over map of
the United States, noting the localities where
violent storms haye occurred and the charac-
ter of those storms, it is then merely mat
ter of miles on the one hand and a certain
number of days OIL the other to tell when
these storms will reappear.
We will have two weeks of close, sultry,
showery weather. About the 5th of August
there will be a violent tornado in Southern
Ohio, and very heavy thunder showers in
Pennsylvania From the 5th to the 10th
there will be great floods in the Southwest
ern states and every precaution should be
taken to protect life and property. On
the 10th a great storm ofwind and rain
will sweep along the Atlantic coasts, and there
will be a sudden fall in the temperature
overcoats will be needed, and those who go
to the seashore will wish they had
stayed at home. Then our hot weather for
this month will be over
Railroad managers should keep a sharp
lookout for landslides and washouts during
the next two weeks, for there will be REM
arkable rains all over the country.

There is one thing that the rains
have not quenched in Sussex county,
aud that is the desire for a cOnstitu-
tiOnal convention. This desire will
stand firm amid the ruin of crops and
the wreck Of parties. 1t has obtained
deep root in the hearts of the people
and it will grow until it bears fruit in
a new Constitution. Other crops may
fail, but the seed that were sown in the
fall Of 'S7, when over $4,000 voters sig
nified their desire for a Constitutional
Convention, are bound to bring their
increase. Then let our people get
ready for the harvest, so that its full
advantages may be reaped by the pres
ent and future generations. Let US
study our own needs and the needs of
those that are to come after US. But
mainly let us study our own. By so
doing we will escape the mistake of
our fathers who were so fully con-
WINGED that the constitution that they
framed for us was so much better than
any that we could frame for ourselves
that they threw every possible obsta-
Gle in the way Of revision. Let us re-
member that each generation is able to
take care Of itself. Let us not Gistrusl
our children as our forefathers seem to
have distrusted theirs. Let us make
the very best Constitution that we can,
but leave it so that flour children find
that it does not suit themin all partie-
ulars, they can change it at their will

great many of the people of Milton
are as happy as "a clam at high tide
as the camp at Lavinia's is in the zenith
of its power, and the acme of glory of a

vices were held on Saturday evening. On
Sunday morning, the day being auspic-
ious, there was quite a crowd on the
ground-this is the best word can use
to name the gathering portion Of
whom listened to the preaching of the
Rev. T. S. Arnett. Children's service
was held in the afternoon by the Rev. C.
D. Edmonson; the Rev. G. o. Bacchus
preached later, and the Rev G. D. Ed
monson occupied the stand at night.
The collections during the day amounted
to $500. A temperance sermon will be
delivered on next Friday afternoon by
the Rev. w. NJ. Strayer, president of the
conference. The camp will continue
over another Sunday, although the lum-
Der will be sold on Thursday. The circle

looked as wise as a statesman from Cen

Company to afford them the pleasure and
benefit of day-trips to their favorite seaside
resorts at very low rates. These trips are
really delightful breaks in ones daily life

with friends in pleasant excursion, the ac-

seven or eight hours of sea air and salt

suppose.

The town of Newark has set Its sis

example in holding out inducements
to the Knauff Organ Company, Of
Philadelphia, to remove their entire
business to their town including $50
skilled operatives, which means thOus-
ands of dollars annually distributed in
the channels Of trade to the butcher,
the baker and the candle-stick maker"
To do this it required a sacrifice ana
risk on the part Of the people. The
business men not only subscribed
$25, 900 in stock, but made the company
apresent of the necessary ground, in
whatever part of the town they might
choose to locate. The site has been
