Kingwood has a weather prophet who
Is an adept at forecasting. He only
needs a reputation, or rather only needs
to be known to rival the famous Hicks.
His name is Peter r. Smith, the genial
landlord OF the Exchange Hotel. Our
people consider his forecasts far super
Tor To Hicks, In fact they pay no ate D.
ton to Hicks predictions since Mr..
Smith came into local notorety. Fol-
lowing are his predictions as to what
kind OF weather we will have during
December. Compare it with Hicks for
the same month and see for yourself
that our friend Smith is the better OF
the TWO. he says the recedng storms
al the close Of November will usher
December into the monthly phalanx
cold and frosty, attended by north
west winds. About the 30 the temper
AZURE will warm up aud bring on reac-
tionary changes, local depresSions and
local storms. On the 4lh and 5th the
wave will be in transit In middle d.
visions of the country, and will also
touch locally all divisions in its passage
from west to east. All places not
touched by actual storm in the sense OF
snow or rain, ETC., will experience all
the changes Of temperature on the heels
of its passage. The sOlstice period,
both in the summer and the winter, are
active agents OF the meteorology, and
when other active agitatiDg causes unite
with the period in question the excite
ment is intensified beyond the usual
general normal, and extremes OF wealth
or conditions follow. The usual time at
which the solStice period begins to lend
an exciting control is about the 10th OF
the month in which this phase OF the
earth's perigrinatiOns in It's orbit occurs.
II regular storm period centers on the
10th; and also in connection with the
above period, as a disturbing agent
OF positive electricity, the moons
last phase touches the tenth, which
likewise lends its influence to the above
peIlod. Considering above observed
causes, we are led to conclude that
active storms may be looked for be-
tween the sth and 18th Of the month.
About the 9TH or Sth the temperature
will become quite warm, and south and
east winds will assist in forming large
areas OF atmospheric depression In ad-
vance OF the disturbance starting. The
general bulk Of the disturbance will
come in on the 10th or 18th, starting
about the 9th in the week, beginning
with rain and turning TO snow. In the
rear Of the disturbance north and north
west winds will bring down portion
of the arctic climate, and billiards and
blockades will os on the market In
the west and north. About the
14th reaction of weather conditions
will start, and local storms will be in
transit on that or the next date touch
ing il. About the 18th weather condi-
tions will be mild, attended by warm
wave, bringing about amuchintensihed
disturbed period, which centers on the
21St, bringing in general disturbance
on the central date and those touching
II. An that has been said respecting
the disturbed period centering on the
10Th OF the month may be applied to
the period now considered, TO which is
added greater intensity to the elements
at this period. a reaction Of weather
conditions will follow absd6' the Goth
and 27th, when storms will be In tran
sit, and very cold we9ther will follow to
the end Of the mT
