Smiths Forecast for August.


The disturbance originating on
the closing of July will run its
course in middle sections about the
1st or 2nd, and will then turn cool
er with light bracing air currents
from the northeast. From the
5th to 18th the temperature will
range above the summer medium.
A storm wave centres on the 9th
with clearing away about the even
ing of the 9TH. In most places the
wave will be accompanied by severe
wind; light and refreshing showers
of limited extent will be experienced
while larger areas adjacent thereto
will be untouched by rain. The
clouds generally will be charged
with wind which will scatter and
lessen Their rain producing power.
About the 10th the heat will be
much intensified in advance of To-
cal disturbances which will centre
on the 18th and be prolonged in
transit through the 18th. The
wave will cover large areas in which
1T will contain but limited moisture
while narrow belts will be invigor-
ated with refreshing showers. Cool
or weather will follow the heat
which will reach its August climax
between the l4th and 18th of the
month. A storm centres on the
18th which will be in transit on the
10th. The ram will be attended
by electric showers, win6-storms
and a light rainfall. A cooler at.
mosphere will follow. The sum-
mer's heat will be above the aver
age about the 22nd and 23rd, when
invigorating local rains Of a more
general character will give relief TO
large portions Of the country. A
cooler atmospere will follow the
wave.
Between the 9th and the close
of the month the summers heat
and droutb will be broken when all
portions of the country viii be in
vigorated with refreshing rains; cy-
clones may make their appearance
about this period on the western
plains and pralries. And earth
quake shocks should give 10 alarm.
They may be felt at this or any of
the periods to September 10. Many
brilliant displays of Auroras may
be seen in August and for many
months thereafter; however, after
this fall and winter they will fade
in brilhancy. =. r. SMITH.

The End of an Outlaw.

Jack Cooley, the leader of a gang
of outlaws which has terrorized
Somerset county, Pa, for more
than year past has at last met
his fate and an ignominious and
commonplace fate at that. He
was shot by spring gun placed be-
hind the door of milk house on
Thomas Collins premises, near
Fairchance, Pa, on Thursday
night last.
Cooley and two comrades, Frank
and Josh Ramsey, made a raid on
the milkhouse mentioned on Thurs
day night last, and in forcing the
door they discharged the gun, the
entire load passing into the abdo-
men of Jack Cooley. His comrades
carried him to his father residence
about three miles distant, where he
died Saturday morning. Nothing
was known as to the effect of the
shot until the distressed old father
of Cooley came into Fairchance
Saturday morning for a coffin for
his ermng son, when he told the
story as it was related to him by
Jack and his comrades. Cooley
was the acknowledged leader of a
bad lot of marauders in Somerset
county, and it is believed his death
will cause the band to break up.

Mr.. WELLINGTON THE MAN
He VIII Getthe Nomination From the
Sixth District

sixth District.
Sundays American" has the
following gossip about the complex
ion of politics in the Sixth District:
at is the desire of the Repubh-
can party in this State to nominate
for Congress the strongest men
obtainable in the various districts.
In the Sixth District, as heretofore
stated, if the signs of the times are
true guide as to the future, Sub
treasurer Wellington will receive
the nomination. Mr.. Wellington
and his friends have never been in
doubt as to the outcome. There
has been more or less talk of the
probability of ex-Congressman Nc
Comas becoming a candinate, but
on what grounds such reports were
based is uncertain, since Mr.. Nc
Comas had clearly indicated on
more than one occasion that the re-
port in regard to his candidacy was
without foundation. Another letter
has been received from him by a
friend in this city, stating that he
would not be a candidate for the
Congressional nomination, and that
he had not announced his position
publicly in regard to this question
because he wished to take his own
time in this matter. Direct infor-
nation was recently received by
Mr.. Wellington's friends that Mr..
McComas advocated the nominal
ton of the sub-treasurer, and that
Washington county's vote in the
convention would be cast for him.
But those who have heretofore
found it convenient to question the
position of Mr.. McComas on this
point, appear to have finally become
convinced that he will not enter
the contest, and his selection as
secretary of the National Commit
tee assisted them in reaching a con-
clusion which, to others, had been
evident for some weeks. Unless
some other candidate should enter
the field between the present time
and August 10, only two candidates
are in the field, Messrs. Wellington
and Pearre, with everything in
favor of the former
The primaries will be held in
Allegany on Saturday, and Mr..
Wellington's friends claim that he
will carry nearly, if not all, of the
districts.
The Republican primaries will
be held in Montgomery county on
Saturday. The convention will be
held at Gaithersburg on Thursday
August 4th, at noon.
Mr.. McComas has large follow
ing in this county, but this week S
issue of the Press" the Repubh-
can organ in the county, states that
it is authorized to say that Mr.. Nc
Comas will not, under any circum-
stances, be a candidate. In this
case it is likely that the delegates
will 90 instructed for Wellington. "

SENATOR VEST PAYS HIS RESPECTS
TO JUDGE,

In the debate on his Indian Territory Teso-
luton in the Senate last week. Senator Vest, OF
Missouri, said some very hard things about
United States Judge Parker, who holds court
at Fort Smith, Ark. He instanced the case Of
a negro who had been tried in that court, found
guilty, and was sentenced to be hanged for
shooting one of party who broke into his
house at night who turned out to be a Deputy
Narshal), the Judge having charged that the
prisoner was presumed to have knowledge Of
the official character of the maa who was
killed. The case was brought 20 his Mr.
Vestss) attention. and he had taken the record
of the case TO the Department o: Justice. where
the Pardon Clerk, Mr.. BOteler, had recommend
ed the pardon of the prisoner. He (31r. Yest)
had then brought the papers to President Glove
land, who read them that same night, and con-
muted the sentence to 10 years Imprisonment.
A Senator at this junctUre said the man
ought to have been pardOBed, and Mr.. Vest
replied: % He ought TO have been acquitted in
the first instance; or he ought 70 have been
paIdoned by the President. But Judge Parker
afterward denounced that action on the part Of
President Cleveland as an interference with his
judicial authority and has, since then, de-
nounced President Harrison for interfering
with one of his sentences. That is the sort Of
court which is to give to the civilized Indians
of the country an idea of our mode Of admin
istering justice. Heaven save Us from setting
such examples as those Of the sIaughter-houss
at Fort Smith to the civilized or unciviliZed
people Of this continent"

Schemes Proposed to Enable the Govern

The necessity for some law by which the
Government will be able TO recover money
which is sometimes fradulently obtained on
first pension payment, matter how much
care may be taken by the Pension Bureau in
adjusting all claims, formed the topic Of dis
cussion in the House Committee on Invalid
Pensions on Tuesday, Dec. 13.
1t is stated that Secretary Of the Interior
Noble fsvors some plan by which portion of
the pension can be held by the Government, SO
as to reimburse it in case the pension is found
to be fraudulent or Illegal. The House Com
mittee on Invalid Pensions seems also to take
this view Of the matter, and at their meeting z
were inclined to favor bill that is now before
it, which provides That the Secretary of the
Interior be authorized and directed to treat, in
his discretion, all improper Illegal or excessive
payments of pension money to pensioners,
whether caused by fraud Misrepresentation
on the part of the pensioners, or by mistake
either of fact or Of law on the part of any off,
Ger of the Bureau of Pensions as prepayments
that shall be charged in any case against the
current pension; and the same shall be done
with view to reimbursement of the Govern
ment, and to either the readjnssment or equali-
zation of current pension payments"
