The directors of the Caledonia county
fair, which is to be held at st. Johns
bury, September 11th-18th, have engaged
Edward F. Griswold, of st. Johnsbury,
to make balloon ascension the second
day of the fair. Captain Griswold has
bought new balloon, and the fact that
he is one of the leading business men of
st. Johnsbury will add to the interest in
the ascension.

Hicks Forecasts for March.

We begin with a repetition of our
warnings Of a hard and stormy March,.
About the Bird, the beginning of storm
period will show itself in westernly re-
gions. The first storm period will end,
Jude normal conditions, about the It'll,
but the New Moon falling on that date,
and the combined disturbing powers of
Mars, Earth and Venus being so near
the crisis, a series Of hard and DANGEROUS
storms will most likely center about the
9TH, with continued stormlness past the
reactlonary disturbances, central on the
Sth and 9th During all these distur-
Dances there will be violent conflicts be
tween the tropical and polar storms,
with heavy rains and strong pro5ablli-
ties of tornadoes in many p~laces-espsc-
tally southwark, and turning to billiards.
and sno bloakades in more n~orthernly
regions. Sudden and extreme cold must
be expected and preparations made for
it in the rear of these storms, or surprise
and suffer ng are sure to result. On
and touching March 18th is tie annual
crisis for magnetic and electrical pertur-
bations.
The l4th is the center OF the next reg
ular period. A day or two previous to
that date indications in westernly parts
OF the continent will plainly show that
energetic storms are brewing. During
18th to 18th, the storms will reach their
crisis ard make their sweep from the
western 10 the eastern extreme of u
continent. At the close of storms. each
section in Its turn will be struck by a
polar wave of great severity, for the sea.

OF Mercury, Earth, Venus, Vulcan's re-

unusual centering Of SO many disturban-
ing forces, right at the Vernal equinox,

that we do not now foresee or under

CORRESPONDENTS
The House.

WASHINGTON, March 3.-At the open
ing of the session, the Bland seigniorage
bill having been passed by a vote of 1853
to 139 late in the afternoon, the house
was ready to proceed to the considera-
ton of other business.
Mr.. Bankhead, chairman of the COM
mittee on public buildings, offered a
resolution for the appointment of a sub
committee to go to Chicago and investi-
gate the postotfice building there, with
a view to determining the question of
its safety, etc. The amount involved
was large, and the committee were I'M
willing to make a recommendation
without a personal investigation. The
resolution carried an appropriation Of
fl,5OO. 1t was passed.
Mr.. kilgore then pres nted. his reso-
luton, calling upon the ~sergeant-at-
arms for his reasons for not carrying
out tho provisions of the law, which re-
qulre that he deduct from the salaries
OF the members for such time as they
are absent. 1t was referred.
Mr.. McRae called up from the com
mittee on public lands the bill which
has been before several previous con-
crosses to provide for the opening of
certain abandoned military reserva-
tl"2>. After some DEBATE the bill was
passed.

Kaufman Bros. Entertain in Royal Style
Mayor Patterson Makes a Speech
The Feast and Multitude.

Two thousand people are estimated to
have visited the store of Chas. Kaufman
& Bros. and partaken Of the free dinner
in the opera house to-day. Early In the
day people began to arrive from the
country and before noon the side walks
were lined with PEG, le and the streets
with teams. Nearly all the male por-
tion examined the men new stock
Of the Kaufman Bros, Manager E.
Kramer and his large force Of clerks
having more than they could do to at
tend the calls Of customers.
At 1890 the doors of the opera house
were thrown open and the six tables, one
each waited upon, respectively, by ladies'
OF the Catholic, Episcopallan, Baptist,
Presbyterian, Methodist and Lutheran
churches, seating in all 225 guests at a
time, were soon FL ed. These we're re-
filled many times before the throng was
melted away. The Flores orchestra of
Egan dlscoursed sweet music during the
eating, and the ladies' waited upon the
hungry to their hearts content. Dur
the meal, Mayor Patterson addressed
the vast throng 10 ringing one. rs fol,
lows:
ladies and Gentlemen: Eat, drink
and he merry, for tomorrow thou
shalt dle' 1t is not everywhere that

have come among US and put in a stock
OF clothing large enough for a city Of
10000 people, and have thus honored the
enterprise and hustle OF our young city.
Ter years ago it could not have been
done, and but for their enterprise could
not be done now. They recognize in
the farming community the backbone
OF our country, and have invited you

have come here to Dnild up IA trade and
build up our town, and this is the way
to do it. Madison is not a one horse
town or they could not have come here.
They recognize its potentialities and
will make an important factor in its
growth by drawing trade here. You are
welcome. Visit their store and examine

CITY POLITICS.
M~ayoralty Bees Buzz Around Citizens Pat
terson, Glover and McGillivra
dermanic Honors for Five.

1t may seem a little premature, but
the interest in the approaching city
election is developing quite rapidly.
The m~ayorality contest appears to be
elicitlng most discussion. Among the
avowed candidates msy be mentioned
the present incumbent, Mayor Patter-
son, who has conducted a vigorous adj
minlstration and feels that he is entitled
to a reelection and he has man friends
who think the same way. But the un-
written law OF city politics which has ob-
tanned IN the past IN this city, that no
mayor has been returned to this office.
appears to operate against him with
peculiar force at this time, and so many
other voters are casting around for a
new choice.
Prominent Of those mentioned TO take
his place is A. +. Glover, who is not ad
verse to being considered a candidate,
and In fact is now openly IN the field and
meeting with strong endorsement. Mr..
N'o'SA 40 " SChUACLIihll VI plOtlONtlCSu
views and his friends have no hesitation
in pu hing his candidacy which is assum-
ing considerable strength already.
Another gentleman who is strongly
urged by numerous friends but is still
undecided himself as to whether he will
be n candidate or not, is NJ. j. Nc
Gillivray. His long service on the coun.
Gil has given him a preparation which
many think specially qualify him for
this important trust, and it is more than
likely that MIR. McGilflvray will yield to
the persuasion Of his friends and allow
his name to come before the people.
At present, sentiment appears t. be
crystallizing around these three names,
though it is not at all improbable that
sudden changes may take place nearer
election day.
As to the new cOuncilmen, little is
being SAID. In the first ward NJ. J. Nc
Gillivray's term expires and he would
more than likeIs be his own successor
were he not booked for higher honorss
Uncertainty in the latter matter has
probably delayed discussion Of the
former.
Two aldermen Will have t. he elected
N the second ward, one to fill vacancy OF
Alderman Murray, the other for the
regular term in place of V. r. Walden.

proposed :hus far are those of John Lar

whom would make good city dads"
