FORECAST FOR MARCH.
Rev. L. Il. Hicks Predicts q Num-
ber OF storms.

Rev Ira r. Hicks publishes the fol-
lowing forecast of March weather in
Word and Works.
Moons last quarter, central time, 81,
137 P. M. new moon, 10th. 5.51 A. NJ;
first quarter, 18th, 3 10 A. NJ; full
moon, 25th, 712 A. M.
The first disturbance following the
central day of the Venus perturba
tions, as rule, is violent and pro-
longed out of the usual order. There
fore look for active storms on the next
to March and 2, as Venus passed her
equinox on February 25, and these
dates bring the next storm movements
thereafter. In the nature of things,
high barometer and cold wave will
sweep on in the rear of these storms,
forming line of demarkation between
them and the next regular storm Pc
riod.
From the 7th to the 18th, inclusive,
there are reasons to anticipate heavy
storms. Venus still covers this period,
with Vulcan on the 18th, new moon on
the 10th, and the most active magnetic
and electrical results of the vernal eqi-
nox on and about the 18th. The
storms OF this period in their progress
across the continent will take on tropi-
cal extremes southward-rain, light
ming, and thunder, with cyclones pos
sible-while the Northern fanks will
bring heavy snow, with billiards. more
than possible. Earthquakes will most
probably result in regions at all SUBJ
ject thereto on and near the days
named. Heavy gales along the seas
and coasts will result. The period will
wind up with general cold-extremely
so in the North. About the 18th end
18th the temperature will rise, followed
by reactionary storms, which in turn,
will end in another blast of boreas.
From 18th to 21st is u regular storm
period, reinforced by Mercury on the
10th, moons first quarter on the 18th,
Vulcan central on the 18th, and earth
at center of its vernai equinox on the
2lst. At this time it will be safe to
count on much the same results-kind
and quantity--as those laid down in
the preceding storm period. Mercury,
let it be remembered, is the steet-god.
according to oar coronation, and he is
almost certain to have his own way
with the acires during the period. Be
prepared for general cold between
these storms, and the reactionary
storm days touching the 24:h. March
will end 10 the midst of storm period
which is pretty sure to turn the last
half of a big job over into the first of
April. Prepare for much active and
some violent phenomena during
March. Look out for your own safety,
health and comfort, and pray, do not
forget the poor, dependent animals
that trust to your mercy and judgment
for their food and shelter.

Rev. George s. Sykes, formerly
Red Bank, where he is now locat.
ed, has written letter to the
Vineland Journal. In it Mr.. Sykes
speaks discouragingly of his church,
the Grace M. E. He says there is a
heavy debt on the church, and the or
ganization is divided. Last year the
pastor was paid q salary of $1,000, but
this year it has been reduced to $1,000.

LEGAL OPINIONS.
Judgements Rendered by The
Supre me Court.

The New Jersey Supreme Court has
just delivered opinions in cases which
are OF such nature that the following
will prove decidedly interesting to the
readers of the PIONEER:
The Wheeler & Wilson Mapufactur-
ng Company v. Carty. Justice Van
Syckel. On certiorari from the Hun
terdon County Court. The judgment
below is reversed. Held, that a jug
tice's court has no jurisdiction of a
suit against a foreign corporation. A
judgment of q Justices court in such
suit is reversible either by certiorari
or by appeal to the Common Pleas
An appeal in such case to the Common
Pleas, which is dismissed because it is
not perfected and prosecuted, is no bar
to the remedy by certiorari.
The Inhabitants of the Township of
Delaware, Camden county, v. The
Board of Assessors of Camden county.
Justice Scudder. The Board of Asses
sors raised the assessment of taxes on
the township $4,000, and it was claim
ed by the township authorities that
this was done in an irregular manner
The Board raised the assessment on
the theory that property had increased
in value throughout all parts of the
township, The court holds that the
Board could take the action they did
without going beyond their power,
and the rule to show cause is dismissed
Fred. Armstrong, v.John I. Haight,
Collector of Monmouth county. JUS
tice Van SycaeL. On application for a
mandamus to compel the defendant to
make publication of the financial state
ment of the county in the relators news
law. THE writ is granted and the
court holds that it is the duty of the
County Collector, under the act of 1899
to publish the financial statement in all
the newspapers of the county desig-
mated by the Governor and Comptrol-
Ter to publish the laws. The Board of
Freeholders may cause the publication
to be made in papers other than those
designated to publish the laws, but
the Collector must publish in the
papers SO designated.
Willetts & Co. ". Ruth G. Earle.
Justice Dixon. The main question in
volved was whether, when a person
makes written contract for the erec-
ton of building in the name of an
agent, the con1r ract not disclosing the
name of the principal, the filing of
such contract, under our Mechanics
Lien law, prevents a lien in favor of
any person save the other party of
that contract. The court decides that
such filing Of a contract will not pro-
tect building from liens under the
law. 1t is also held that where a
building contract has been filed under
the law person furnishing labor or
materials will not acquire right to a
lien by reason of the subsequent
abandonment OF that contract. The
filing of building contract will not
preclude liens under the lien law for
work done and materials furnished
which were not in pursuance of such
contract.
