1RL R. HICKS WEATHER PROPHET.

IRL II. HICKS WEATHER PROPHET.
The following taken from the "storm
chart" for 1890 of Rev. Irl II. Hicks OF
st. Louis will prove interesting to
many. Here arc his predictions for
FEBRUARY.
On or about the 81 storm disturb
ances will show themselves by rising
temperature with cloudiness and rain
or snow, followed by cold wave for
several days. The first regular storm
period for the month begins about the
9TH and runs until about the 18th. The
9th, 10Th, 1lth and 18th arc shown in
the calendar as the days on which the
greatest disturbances may be looked
for. The equinox of Mercury falling
on the 18th will, doubtless, prolong
the disturbance by cloudiness and
sleet into the minor reactions on the
18th and 10Th. The early part of this
first period will be thawing weather
with rain and perhaps thunder and
lightning. Look for cold at the last.
From the 18th to the 23d, with the
Doth, 21st and odd as the days Of
greatest activity, the next regular pc
riod will occur. Southern regions
may look for heavy rain storms with
active electrical displays at this time.
Cyclonic tendencies not improbable.
Rain and snow northward, followed
by cold. There will be some squalls
on or near the Goth.

As II was very desirable to have

from Manager Barnes yesterday af-
ternoon announcing that the meet
Ing had resulted In the Oregons

WAsmsGroS, April q, Senator Cul-

ing through the Welland and st. Law
renee canals. Tho report asserts that an
unjust discrimination Is made by Can
ada against American vessels ON tho
lakes In the matter Of clearance fees.
Vessels passing through the Wolland
canal, bound to Montreal, have u rebate
made Ofa portion of the tolls paid for
canal passage but, u bound to any
American port, or to the 81 Lawrence
river, no rebate is made. This the re-
port claims IA "A violation of the pro,i-
sions OF the treaty of Washington.
In conclusion, the report says: Thus
II Is that by attacking the narrow mar
gins of profits in the Transportation
business here and therc, our compcti-
tor at the North has been exploiting
upon enormous commerce Tor many
years. II is doing that very thing to-
day In more high handed and ex-
ulting way Isan ever before. All this
Is unnecessary, and Tor the governments
OF Great Britain or Canada to do this is
TO throw sufficient advantage la favor uf
British steamers, Canadian fishing yes -
sells and Canadian railrosds to turn our
commerce from American ocean steam
srs American fishing vessels, American
railroads and American seaports. This
ls being done not only by subvention,
but also by enabling statuary provisions,

A DYNAMITE CAP.

Eddie Bradley Touches a Match to
One and Is Severely Injured.
Eddie Bradley, years Of age, a
son Of C.. q. Bradley, while playing
with dynamite cap yesterday af-
ternoon met with an injury that will
probably result in the losing of his
left eye. IL seems that the Bradley
boy, in company with Nathan Long,
aged o years, and Roderlck and
John Meinhart, aged S and o years,
respectively, was playing out on the
ledge ON Third street, where few
months ago workmen had been EN-
ployed in blasting for the purpose of
extending the street. One of the
boys found three dynamite caps,
which te workmen had carelesSly
left, and the boys then. started for
the house of young Bladley, who re-
sided ut 5O3 West Fourth street,
which IL a short distance from where
the boys found the caps.
ON arriving at the house the boys
went to the back yard, when one of
the youngsters threw two Of the
caps away and the remaining one
the Bradley boy placed In the
ground, and the young boy then OBJ
tanned IA match from some source
which he lighted and handed 10 the
Bradley boy at the same time telling
him TO look out aus Il went of quick.
The Bradley boy then touched the
fuse with the lighted match, when
u dcafening explosion took place, n
large portion Of the cap entering the
eye of young Bradley.
His mother hearing the explosion
went to investigate, when the hoy
ran down into the cellar, where she
found him covered with blood. DIR.
Semple was called and found that II
portion of the cap had entered the
boys eye, the wound being Of such
n character the probability is that
1t will destroy the sight Of the eye.
