The Unusual Condition Was an
Intensely Dry Summer.

Intensely Dry Summer.
Local Forecast Official Lyons has sub
mitted his annual weather review for
1894, which in substance says that re-
view of the weather tor st. Paul and
vicinity for the year 1894 shows no un-
usual conditions except an intensely
dry and hot summer, during which the
maximum temperature went above 80
deg OH twenty-four days, and the high
est previous registration of 100 deg on
July, 1883, was equaled on both July
IL and % of the year just ended. Tenn
perature also went above 90 deg on
thirteen days of that month, while
the total rainfall was only
.13 of can inch. The succeeding
August was nearly as discouraging, it
being warm, with only SO of all inch of
rain, and though grasses and other shall
lOW-rOoted vegetation succumbed to
such herce conditions, the wonder was
that any vegetation at all survived;
but considerable of it did, and, though
stunted, the staple crops were not fail
ures by any means. In fact, wheat was
very generally up to the average. The
mean or average temperature Of the
year is 46.1 degrees. or 1T warmer than
the normal. And % degrees below zero
was the lowest registration, that OH
Jan. %. There were SiXty-seven days
on which the temperature remained
at or below 80 degrees, freezing
during all hours, both day and night,
and 1877 days that it fell to or below
freezing at some hour or time Of the day
or night. The rainfall, including melted
snow. was deficient, 1.9S inches. The
total fall during the year was $3.50
inches. There were 141 clear, SO fair
and l25 cloudy days and 10S days OH
which .01 of an inch or more of precIpi-
tation Qain or snow fell. The mean
cloudness on scale Of 0 to 10 70 en-
tIrely clear, 10 entirely cloudy was So.

classed "foggy;" snow of measurable
quantity fell on SO days, electric disturb-
ances thunder storms) occurred 80
times. March and November had
2 each; July and September 3; April A;
June z, and May O. The same agent
manifested itself in very feeble auroral
or polar light displays only twice, once
in February and July. The wind did
not rise to a dangerous velocity at any
time except Nov. 9, when 1t blew Dorth-
west forty miles for about five minutes.
The last frost of spring was May %, and
the first serious one In autumn was on
Oct. g. That was killing frost, but all
crops had matured long before that time.

Schlatter Located.

Francis Schlatier, the noted healer,
whose mysterious disappearance from
Denver, Colorado, some time ago has
been such prolific theme for public
comment, has been located at Green
horn in that state. A special to the
Denver News from Graneros, under date
o. Nov 26th, says: Francis Schlatter,
the healer" is at Greenhorn, some nine
miles from this point. There is no
question as to his identity, as he was
recognized by the writer and by George
Sears and wife, all Of whom were treated
by him in Denver. Schlatter rides a
fine gray horse and carries a bundle Of
blankets, He gave detailed statement
Of his movements since leaving Denver,
and admitted meeting the various par
ties who have reported seeing him on
his route. He reached Greenhorn about
1890 to-day. He has treated a number
Of people to-day, and has also blessed a
number Of handkerchiefs. He says he
Is on his wav to Albuquerque, and will
follow the old Santa Fe trail 10 that
point. On his arrival he will commence

William Gillian Dead.

Friday morning, at the early hour of
8 O'Clock, the spirit of William Gillian,
the cowboy who was shot by Ed. Wool
folk last August, took its flight to the
other shore.
His case has been one of the most re.
markable on record and has baffled the
physicians at every turn. Ever since
the day he was shot he has not been
able to move hand or foot and has been
entirely helpless. While all persons
having anything to do with his case,
have conte nded all the time that the
young man could not live, he has held
on and fought back the grim messenger
with an effort that was truly wonderful.
But he grew weaker and weaker, and
for the past two weeks the end was ex-
pected every day. When he learned
that his sister was on her way to Spear
fish from California he remarked that,
he wanted to live to see her again. y
She arrived Friday evening only to he
informed that her brother had died
early that morning. 1t was q pitiful
sight to behold when her brother-in.
law met her at the depot with the sad
news.-Spearfish Register.

What Thurston Saws.

Senator John NJ. Thurston, Of Ne
braska. in a recent interview at the
Fifth Avenue hotel in New York. said
"The republicans are for Mckinley as
the next presidential candidate, first,
last and all the time. The strength OF
the Ohio man in the west comes from
the fact that the working people believe
in him. They know that under the
Mckinley law they were getting more
pay tnan they are getting now Busi-
ness was, generally speaking. better.
They are satisfied that Mckinley had
something to do with it, and they want
to vote for him for president"
"Do you think that the republicans
will be able to reorgsnize the United
States senate at the coming session ?"
"Yes." he replied, IL believe we will
be strong enough to assume control. I
have been In Washington for week
and can say that at the opening of the
senate the republicans will start in and
reoreanize that body. believe that al.
the populist members of the senate will
vote with the republicans at this session
That, at least, Is the understanding
among the leaders now. and I 10 no,
think that anything will turn up "a
change the program"
Goyernor-elect Bushnell of Ohio is al
the Holland house. In an interview TO-
day he expressed tho opinion that Gov
ernor Mckinley would be the next
republican nominee for president. Russ

A bond issue, says Henry Clews, the
we'll known New York banker in his
recent review of the financial situa-
ton, is already foregone conclusion,
and its occurrence will create no un-
easiness in financial circles. Possibly,
it may do good in negative fashion
by emphasizing the urgency of cur
rency reform Meantime railroad earn
ings continue to make encouraging
gains, especially in the west and north
west, where the heavy grain movement
is stimulating both traffic and general
business. In the southwest the back
ward movement of cotton is causing
deficiency in earnings, but as the cot
ton must soon 60 forward better results
may be anticipated in due season. 1t
follows also that as soon as cotton and
wheat go to Europe with more free
dom, as they inevitably must, the ex
change market will eet with that
much relief. The business situation is
satisfactory. There is less activity than
few weeks ago, which is to be ex-
pected in the closing months of the
year In several staple markets where
prices and production had been ad-
vanced too rapidly there is reaction
ary tendency, which in the end will
encourage fresh buying and give conf
nence in the future a more substantial
basis. In few days congress viii
open, but the session promises to be
less disturbing than its predecessors
In all probability currency reform will
be the leading issue. The outlook for
1896 is as bright and hopeful as could
be hoped for within reason. OF the
immediat future there ia some doubt.
