November Weather.

st. Joseph, Mo-, Oct. 30.-From the
llth to the Goth of November will aver
age warmer than either the first eight
days or the last eight days Of the month.
Gearing weather may be expected to
leave the Pacific coast about the 2nd or
3rd Of November, crossing the continent
in about four days. The first half of the
month will probably be more stormy
than the last half.
My last letter gave forecasts of the
storm wave due to cross the continent
from October 30th to November Sth. and
the next will be due to leave the Pacific
coast abort the 9th, cross the great GEN.
;ral valley from the 9th to 8th. reaching
the Atlantic coast about the 9th. The
storm center will probably take central
route. causing quite cool weather and
srow in the northern tier of states. and
as it passes warm weather will occur In
the southern states south of il. Severe
frosts will follow it in northern and
southern attitudes. Cloudy weather
will increase and the long periods Of
beautiful sunshine become less extend
ed. Real winter weather may be ex-
pected In all the northern tier of states,
and a near approach to winter in all
states along the 40th degree Of north
latitude. But the severest weather may
be expected during the first days of the
month. w. I. FOSTER.

sooner or later pay the penalty of his
crimes.
The death watch was commenced
Friday night of last week. and Lehman
was made aware of the fact that every
preparation was being made for his exc
cution, but the wonderful nerve
OF the man never deserted him. Mon
day he was visited by Rev. Tracy aud
Key. Mckee. As is the case whenever
he meets a stranger, he tried To give
them the impression that he was crazy,
but both gentlemen unhesitatingly ex-
pr s'ed the opinion that his mind was
sound, and he an excellent actor Rev.
Tracy stated that the sympathy he had
for the condemned vanished with that
interview. The Death Watch, Nj. S.
DAILY, says that Tuesday night, Lehman
could not sleep soundly, but was wakeful
and evidently anxious. When Wednes-
day morning came and he arose there
was noti cable change in his conduct.
The hope that has buoyed him so long
seemed deserting him, he was silent
and sullen and paced his cell like a
Gagged animal. 1t is thought that had
the rep~ieve been DELAYED Just little
'NhrN' bO "OAi0 idNt Which,. w DGn
told that the respite had been received,
he assumed an air OF nonchalance and
said, Il knew this talk Of hanging me
was all nonsense. they've been try
ing to do it for two years, but can't
make it,"
This last week it has been developed
that before coming here Lehman was a
resident Of Brazil, Neb. j. A. Dodds
OF this city recognizes him as man
who worked in the mills there, and on a
arm in ihat vicinity. Mr.. Dodds visit
ed him a few days ago, and though
they have not met for six or seven
years, Lehman knew him and cslled
him by name. Mr.. Dpdds knew him
as hard character. AT one time he
was charged with poisoning neighbors
horses, but evidence was not conclusive.
AT another time he was connected with
q gang of land sharpers who made
business of fleecing homeseekers from
the east. OF his life previous to coming
to Custer county Lehman will reveal
nothing. Fit is all like the little that
has just been made public he has good
reason for being silent.

Internationally, and with his estimable
wife devoted the evening to the enter
tainment Of the guests. Music, instru-

the affair one OF the most delightful
social events Of the season.
G. c. Wilson, one of the mail clerks
on the run between Deadwood and Lin
coin, .is the inventor of an ingenious
device that, if adopted by the postal de-
partment, will be great improvement
over the mail pouch lock now in use all
over the United States. Mr.. Wilson's
invention does away with the strap now
used on the pouch, and in place of it
number of steel bars are passed through
the staples by single movement of the
spring by which they are manip
ulated. and closes the sack much more
securely than does the strap. It's adop-
ton means the saving of many moments
of the mail clerks, valuable time, and
would be great convenience to every
postmaster in the country. The in
yentor has applied for patent and ex-
poets to receive it next month. He will
then submit his inyention to Postmaster
General Wanamaker, and if that gentle
man looks upon it with favor, Mr.. Will
sons fortune will be made.
1t is said that all things come to those
who patiently wait, and the independ-
ents Of Custer county had their turn at
the political wheel at the eleventh hour
of the campaign, when on Monday even
ing of this week Rev. Wm. McCready.
of Spearfish, addressed gathering of
Custer people, at the court house, on the
subject, Have the people of the United
States cause for complaint against the
present management Of the govern
mentY Mr.. McCready answered the
above question aflirmativcly, and the
greater part of his discourse was devoted
to the financial questions of the day. He
maintained that the affairs Of the gov.
eminent were not properly managed,
that the rank and file ofthe people were
rot justly dealt with, and that a change
was necessary. Bot unlike the great
majority of those of his political faith,
he candidly acknowledged that he did
not know just how the change was to be
effected, and the numerous wrongs of
the people righted. Rey. McCready
could hardly be termed a calamity
howler." There are two classes of in
dependents, one made up of sore. heads.
office-seekeis. recruited
from the old parties, and in this class
the calamity howler" is alway found.
The other branch of the party contains
men who, while pessimistic in their
views, and unreasonable in their de-
mands, are honest, believing what they
profess, and earnestly striving TO right
the real and fancied wrongs Of their iel
low men. We believe Mr.. McCready to
be one Of the latter class.

On the District Appropriated Bill-Objec-
ton tO Some Features In the House.


On the District Appropriatios Bin-Ohjse.
ton tO Some Features In the House.
The District Of Columbia appropriation bill
is now in conference, the House conferees
being Messrs. McComas, Clements and Nor
row, and the Senate Messrs. Plumb, Dawes and
Cockrell. The conference committee will
probably complete its work by the end of
this week and the frat Of next week
will see the bill on its final
passage. The House intends to take q separate
vote on four of the Senate amendments, pro-
viding they are insisted upon by the Senate
conferees in their present form. These are the
provisions in regard to assessment, electric
lights, payment Of bonds falling due and re-
funding of District payments for the Geological
Park and water works. Several members OF
the appropriation committee in the House are
of the opinion that it is an unwise plan for the
United States to take up these District bonds
falling due in the manner provided for in the
Senate amendment, but consider q new issue
of bonds should be made. Others, however
say that on the grounds of economy and quick
ness the plan proposed by the Senate is much
superior to any other. The government they
claim. has the entire matter in charge and is
assured of repayment for the money advanced
by the natural working of the sinking fund
Strange as it may seem there will be OPPOSE
ton in the House to the Senate amendment cred
ltlng back to the District one-half Of the $780,
O0O which the new water works cost and pro-
viding for the payment OF this sum from the
water rates in twenty-five annual installments
and the provision refunding to the District the
amount paid out for the maintenance Of the
Geological Park. Mr. Cannon is expected to
lead raid against these provisions in the
House.

DISTRICT LEGISLATION.
Petitions Received Today by the House Dis-
trict Committee.


The House District committee today received
a strong petition from the mayor. president 81
board OF trade and large number of those
employed as fishermen at Alexandria. asking
for the passage of the Senate bill continuing
the laws relating TO the protection of fish in tie
Potomac. This is the bill on which Mr. Lee u
delaying action.
OPPOSED TO TRACES on srRTrT.
Mr.. Morris has forwarded 10 the Horse Dis
trict committee a largely signed petition OF
owners of real estate abutting on p street. west
of 1lth street northwest. protesting against
the chartering Of the East and West Washing
ton traction road. or. at least. of the use of r
street by said road. Mr.. Morris in his letter -
transmittal, SAYS: IF this bill should unfor-
tunately become a law the result would be to
destroy the value OF p street as q plnce Of resi-
dence and 10 coifiscate hall the value Of the
property on that street From the persistence
with which this measure has been pushed snc
peculiar tactics which seem to have been en-
ployed to carry il into effect, the petitioners
are compelled TO believe that its promoters and
contrivers, whoever they are. have selfish
schemes to subserve which should procure its
rejection by Congress.
The petition states that the charter should
not be granted because there is no public ne
cessity for the road; that il has not been wished
for: that p street is too narrow ard the road
would cause great depreciation in the value of
abutting property .and finally that other streets
are better adapted for tins purpose.
