METEOROLOGICAL FORECAST FOR
SEPTEMBER.
BY P. R. SMITH.

September will opeu with rising
temperature and southwcstcrly wind
current. The 1st and End denote
light rainfall and change of air
currents shifting to the northwest,
with clear weather on the 3rd. The
9Th the wind will change around TO
the west and southwest, with an
advance of the temperature, which
on the 9Th and 9TH will reach it's
highest reading for the month. A
storm period is central on the 9TH,
which includes the 9Th, 9Th and 9Th
IN It's passage from west to east.
Cloudy weather will continue up to
the 10th. Watch tho 9TH and Sth,
storms may occur. The 18th and
18th are days of secondary storm
movements, which will bring n
change of air currents, pleasant
days and cool nights up to the 18th,
when it will grow quite VAIN with
westerly and southwesterly winds.
The 10th is the central day of u
storm period in which the earth's
equinox lends her disturbing in
1uence TO the other meteorological
forces present. The storm period
is embraced within the 18th, 10th
and goth for the passage OF the storm
movements across the continent.
Dangerous storms will take place,
which will be mostly on the lakes,
seas, &c., and on their COASTS. The
elements will be cleared on or about
the 21st. The 9th and 25th are
days of minor storm movements.
The heat will advance from the 2Sth
and eliminate in a storm period
beginning the Both and running into
October, of which the 1st is the
central day. This period should be
closely observed, as hurricanes, cy-
clones, hail storms and electric dis
turbance will most likely occur
within this period. Observe that
latitude, surface and elevation have
much to do in governing storms in
their passage across the country,
and also the line of oyclonic center
is shifting with the season. Look
for touch of early winter after the
central day, snow and ice up north,
killing frosts reaching far south,
will follow on the heel of this dis
turbance.

Sparks & Aliens circus was i'm
Kingwood last Saturday and tho
small boy was hilarious. The day
was a beautiful one and people came
in from far and near to take IN the
show, which arrived from Terra Al
tn in due time and pitched the tents
on Beverley Hi near tine Colored
School house. Just after dinner the
Band wagon with eight horses pa
raded the streets, preceded by Capt.
Bartlett, who claims to be the cham
pion wing-shot of the world. lie
rode horse without bride, and
while riding at full gallon would
throw glass balls in the air and
break them to pieces every shot with
n repeating rifle. The inevitable
side-show WAS on hand and was a
small affair as usual. The afternoon
performance was crowded and the
audience seemed to enjoy 1T and
laughed uproarously at the clowns
jokes, most of which had whiskers
before Cain and Abel had the mea-
sizes and were bald-headed and tooth
less long before Methusclah was
boy. Nearly everybody remained
for the 0nccrt, wk.ch was lucky,
as misery loves company, and some
of it was calculated to make II per-
son very tired. However, some of
the main performances were very
good, aud take it all in all, it was
worth the small admission charged,
and We noticed that most of the
town people who were there I'm the
afternoon went back at night, but
there were not so many from the
country. and the crowd was only
about half as large at the evening
performance. they commenced
pulling ont about midnight and
went from here to Mt. Morris, Pa. !,
to show OIL Monday.

There was n little side-show ut
the circus last Saturday not down in
the bills. Two men arrived in King
wood from Homecoming, Md, and
went before Justice Goodwin and
asked to have one of the members
of the circus Band arrested, claim
ing that he had stolen horn be
longing to the Homecoming Band.
While they were in the Squirrels
Office the Band passed and they
recognized their man, playing the
missing instrument. Squire God
win then sent Constable j l.. Stone
to the circus with orders to arrest
the young man and bring him and
the horn before him. The arrest
took place just after the circus
opened AMI while the Band was
playing. Sheriff jackson assisted
and the little scene created consid-
cradle excitement. At the trial the
young man, whose name is Walter
James, gave up the horn and the
two men, who were trustees of the
Band, paid the cost, and so all was
compromised.
1t seems that James belonged to
