WHAT HICKS SAYS
About June Weather and the Sea.
sons CrOD.

AOOut June Weatnef anu the sea-
sons Crop.
Speaking Of tho weather in its pros
pectlve relation to crops this season,
Hicks in his weather journal says: We
do look for much dry, hot weather
during the coming months, and if it
proves to be 80, many places must
necessarily suffer, more or less. The
Venus equinox in August may prevent
the fultillment of our fears, and cause
sufficient rainfall to relieve the crops. It
will be we'll to plant part Of your crops
so as to get the benefits OF rains at that
time. Sections which have had abnor.
NAL rains in April and May should act
upon our suggestions on our editorial
page. II early frosts follow the Venus
disturbances the last of August, they
are not so apt to prove generally destruc.
tive, and warm. nice weather may follow
in the autumn sufficient to mature crops.
Count on it for at least enough to supply
necessary supplies. Plant and plow both
for 1.-The early and the latter rain"
The following are the June forecasts:
Disturbances will disappear eastward
by the Sd, leaving pleasant weather be-
hind. The 7th and 9Th will bring higher
temperature with storms. About the 10th
it will begin TO grow excessively warm,
which will increase during the 11th and
18th, Or until general storms Of rain,
thunder and wind result. A series of
storms each afternoon and evening Tor
several days, will likely occur at this
time, running into the secondary dis
turbances about 18th and 18th. The Doth
to 25th is regular storm period right at
the crisis of June solstice. Heavy rains
and violent electrical and atmospheric
perturbations will he natural. Bright,
pleasant days and nights will follow up
to 18th. The month ends warm and
stormy.
Other details of June weather are
given as follows:
Renewed activity of volcanoes and
earthquake disturbances may naturally
be expected, though not necessarily
dangerous. They areAthe readjustment
of natural forces, and should be looked
upon as benefcent, rather than calami-
tous. There will be great electrical
activity during these solstice storms,
especially during the night, but no one
should be alarmed, as it will prove
grander than disastrous. Our friends
will remember the tendency Of storms to
whirl suddenly back from the east, from
about the 10th to 25th OF June. Showery
conditions are liable during that period,
and local swlrls will repeatedly fly back
after passing east, unexpectedly taking
tho starch from the collars OF careless
and unsheltered people.
It will be natural to expect some
heavy storms, with rain and much
lightning and thunder, say about 23rd,
Oath, 25th. Cooler weather will succeed
these storms, and regions that are short
Of moisture at the end Of this period will
have to contend with serious drought.
The month will close with very cool
weather advancing from the west, which
condition will prevail IN most parts in
the opening days Of July.

TRAPPED BY ELECTRICITY.

Michigan Burglars Photographed While
They Worked at a Till.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Nov ij.-Three
burglars, trapped by electricity and the
camera, have confessed to rcbting the
store of Foster, Stevens & Co., hard
ware. For some time the firm has been
a loser by persistent till tapping and all
other devices failing, two electricians ar-
ranged camera focused on the cash
drawer and an electric connection was
made with the Edison colnpaoy's plant
to operate it. A burglar alarm device
was fitted in the cash drawer so that
when the till was opened the electric
connection was made and the shutter of
the camera opened, exposing the lens
and at the same time setting off a cal
cium fashlight. AS soon as the flash
light fuse burned out it broke the circuit
and the camera lens closed automatic
ally with the photographs Of the till tap
pers imprinted on tho instantaneous
plate. The three poung mon in the job
were startled by the fashlight, but as no
demonstration followed they finished the
job in peace. The sr@oects were ar
rested, and when {, l:onted by the
photograph broke down and have made
full confessions. Their names are Lewis
Stoneburner and Charles and Henry
Snyder. All live here.
