Hicks for April.

We name the Sd, 4th and 5th as dan
ger centers. AS we enter the period it
will grow very warm in westerly parts,
and heavy storms of thunder, rain and
tornadoes will develop and travel east
ward, turning to snow and sleet in north
erly sections. Expect general cold
wave to spread over the country, and
prepare for frost and freezing northward,
in the intervening days and nights prior
to about the 9th and 10th. On or about
these dates it will grow suddenly very
warm. Heavy hailstorms are almost
sure to result. Another dash of cool to
cold weather will fall in behind these
disturbances, disappearing gradually up
to about the 14th. Between the 18th and
18th the whole country will feel the ef
fects of a very warm wave, and storms
of great violence are to be apprehended on
and about the 18th, 10Th and 18th. The
2Sth is the central day of the last period
for the month, which period embraces
the 25th to 28th inclusive. During this
period it will grow very warm again,
and heavy storms of rain, hail and thun-
der will travel from west to east across
our continent After the storms, look
for cold and frost. The month promises
to end very cool.

MEETING SUNDAY NIGHT.
Other Meetings to be Held Through Il 9
Week.

The interest which the saloon ques-
ton is arOusing in this place was
shown by the large attendance at the
union meeting at the Presbyterian church,
Sunday evening. Short and crisp ad-
dresses were made by J. B. McMechan,
E. f. Clevenger, A. T. McKelyey, W. A.
Hunt, DR.. Hewetson, George Brown, Mrs.
Dickey, A. H. Mitchell, James Stewart,
F. ID. Bailey, Henry Morgan, A. j. Me-
Farland and j. p Hall. Drs. Balph and
Alexander both spoke earnestly, urging
for votss against the repeal of the ordi
nance Ample opportunity was given for
speeches in favor of the repeal of the o.
dinance, but no one arose to champion
that side of the question. By an al
most unanimous vote, it was resolved
to hold a similar meeting next Sun
day night, and to hold meeting
also at the United Presbyterian church on
wednesday evening. A committee of
seven was appointed to look after the
business of the cause, and to devise ways
and means for getting the right sort of
a vote in its favor.
The regular morning service hour at
the Methodist church was also devoted
to special work, consisting of short ad-
dresses by members of the congregation
in favor of the retention of the liquor
ordinance.

The Best is Cheapest.

Althoughit would require good round
sum to wire in to properly light the Court
House and other county buildings, yet it
seems to us that this is the only proper
solution to the difficulty now confronting
the Commissioners. The electric lights
are certainly the best, and every calcula-
tion thus far made shows that they are
cheaper than carbon oil, and cheaper than
gasoline. The only objection to the plan
is the moderately large expense necessary
at the beginning. But the plan to put in
a separate electric plant will hardly meet
with appreciation since the light can be
obtained from the town about as cheaply
as it is given to private citizens, and
certainly much cheaper than it could be
by the operation of separate plant.

Their Rights.

Questions are often asked about rights
of public highways in towns and cities,
and lawyer answers some of them as
follows: "The streets belong to teams
and vehicles. and pedestrians have no
more business upon them than the teams
would have upon the sidewalks. The
crossings at the street corners belong to
pedestrians, who have the right-Of way
there, by law, as against teams. Many
drivers ignore the faw and go dashing
over sidewalks, endangering lives and
limbs of pedestrians, without thinking
they are violating the law. No vehicle
or horse can, within the law, be driv-
en- rapidly over a crossing. nor can the
driver Obstruct the crossing

Killed In a Tunnel.

George NJ. Kirker was killed at the
tunnel, above Glencoe on the B. & o.
road, Saturday evening. The young man
lived at Warnock's, and in company with
several other men was aboard down
going freight. Kirkers' companions saw
him standing on the brakeSman's plat
form of refrigerator car, just before
the train entered the tunnel. A few
minutes afterward his lifeless body was
found lying on the car, his head evidently
having been crushed by contact with the
timbers in the top of the tunnel. Coroner
Lowman went out from Bellaire Sunday,
and his verdict was that Kirker came to
his death by being hit on the cars. "
The unfortunate man was % years of age.
The remains were buried Monday.

Attorneys have been retained by people

certain the rights of the people in thai

to the attention of the court and the aid
of the law invoked to protect those rights
from the encroachment of private cor

all of Bridgeport and the people along

just as easy to understand why those out

overworked. If you pick up a local

who come on business are popular; folks
who die are epopular, and so are those who
marry. Miss Sadie Rouch," says an
