Here is Horace Johnsons latest: From
the 9Th to the Sth of May. the earth will
pass through a cold belt in its orbit
There will be quite a disturbance while
moving through the frost belt and a variety
of changes will take place. Look for
thunder and lightning. also frost and prob
ably snow. All persons interested in the
culture of tender plants should be careful
not to expose them to the cold blast. Such
disturbance often lasts many days while
the planets are changing positions which
they will occupy relative to each other
After the disturbance is passed planting
will be in order"

police station has often been discussed,

the second floor of the building. The
place will be used by members of the
force making arrests during the night,
and who live a good distance from the
City hall and have to appear in court in
the morning, and will spare the officers the
unpleasant duty of walking home in the
early morning and returning before 8
o'clock.
