Chairman Beckley announced the
first thing in order to be the election
of permanent chairman. B. D..
Freas nominated ]. u. Kurtz of Ber-
wick, and J. c. Brown nominated c..
E. Geyer Of Catawissa. The list of
delegates was called, and resulted in
the choice of Mr.. Geyer by vote of
S. to 38. This was the first blood
for the Quay forces. R. L. Runyon
and c. S. w. Fox were elected secre-
taries. AT this point A. w. Lesher of
Berwick, read from the rules of the
Republican party on the subject of
representation in the county conven-
ton, and he claimed that Catawissa
borough was entitled to only three
delegates, instead of FIVE. Mr.. Brown
moved that the matter be referred to
committee of five, to be appointed
by the chair. B. d. Freas claimed
that it was not contest, but a mis-
take on the part of the chairman of the
county convention, and the mistake
could be corrected without commit
tee. w. M. Monroe, J. U. Kurtz and
J. c. Brown took hand in the dis.
cussion Of this question. The chair
put the motion to refer to a commit.
tee and it was carried. DR.. J. c. Win.
ner, J. S. Heller, F. S. Nagle, Jerre
! Kostenbauder and J. w. Mathers were
appointed on the committee. The
convention took rest while the com.
mittee deliberated, and nothing wa:
done for about fifteen minutes. Then
the committee came in and reported
in favor of leaving the number of dele
gates as they were. They also report
ed that two substitutions for Roaring
creek were forged.
Election Of delegates to the state
convention was next in order. ]. c
Brown nominated c. l.. Sands, and J.
U. Kurtz presented the name Of Capt
Edward Reese of Centralia. He claim
ed that Mr.. Reese had done great ser
vice for the Republican party, especial
ly in contributing largely to the elec
tion of Congressman Kulp; that he
had never asked the party for any
thing, and the party should at leas
accord him the honor of sending hin
to the state convention. To this Mr.
Brown replied by stating that at leas
on two occasions he had the privilege
of sitting in the state convention witt
Mr.. Reese. The roll was called ant
resulted in IS votes for Sands, an(
81 for Reese. When the announce
ment was made, Isaiah Hagenbuct
shouted "Three cheers for Matt Quay,
and they were given with will. Ther
Kurtz jumped up and called for three
cheers for Governor Hastings, ant
the response was louder than thos
given for Quay. THANK you, gentle
men," said Kurtz, as he sat down
Capt. Reese took the floor and mad

supported him, and advising harmon

My weather tables for 1895 covered
all localities in the United States and
the southern portions of Canada, but
only a few places for each locality.
By using more places in each locality
the tables will become more reliable,
and for 1896 | will have nearly double
the number of places l did for 1895.
l propose to use every long weather
record that has been kept in the
United States, constructing the eight
planetary tables for each place or rec
ord. BY this means the records will
correct each other and aid me in
avoiding errors, for there must nesss-
sarily have Leen mistakes made where
records have been kept from forty to
n hundred years.
From what l have stated above il
will readily be seen that / cannot
wholly avoid errors, but / have also

ence only to rainfall and temperature.
The tables for temperature are not
complete for March l to April 10 and
September l to October 10, and no
tables have yet been made for Nep.
tune. Otherwise they are complete
for n limited number Of places.
Having the influence of each Of
these eight great bodies on the earth's
temperature and rainfall for a given
month, l add the plus and minus re-
suits and take the balance as forecasts
for that month.
The figures thus obtained are not
degrees Of temperature, nor inches Of
rain, but indicate whether the tenn
perature and rainfsll will be normal,
aoovo normal, below normal, and
about how much.
In order to find how much the de.
parture from the normal will be, l use
. scale of ten above and ten below,
using all the figures from 0 up to 10
above and from I down to 10 below.
The weather tables of the sun, moon
and each Of the planets contain these
figures which are derived from the
actual results of rainfall and temper
azure caused by the moon or planet as
shown in the weather records Of the
psst 100 years.
With the above partial explanation
l give below the accumulated rainfall
forecasts for eight months. March to
October inclusive, for a few Of the To-
calities. The first column is the fore
cast, aud the letter b placed before
the figure indicates that the forecast
was far below normal rainfall, the 6g-
IRE ! Indicating a little below, and 10
very dry. The letter a before the fig
ure indicates q forecast for above nor-
NAL.
In the second column is the actual
deficiency or excess of rainfall in
inches above or below normal, the
letter IN indicating minus and p plus.
The amount of rainfall is obtained
from the national weather bureau

given in the above table strssg evi.
dsnce in support Of my claims. l
know I have found the keys that uu.
lock the secrets Of nature as to ten.
perature and r%s'afsll departures.
The mount Of work necessary to
construct these weather tables is enor.
nous. Suppose l have the average
monthly rainfall at Philadelphia for
n hundred years. That will be
twelve hundred months. l must find
the monthly average rainfall for the
whole time and then find the excess
OF deficiency above or below this nor.
nal for each Of the twelve hundred
months. This gives me the rainfall
table as starting point.
Then | take the mooa and 6ud its
separate influence for each Of these
twelve hundred months, and do the
same for the sun and the SIX planets
All this must be worked out for the
n place-Philadelphia, remember
and as much work for every other
place that has a weather record, The
moon has one influence at Phladelph-
ia and another at Kansas City, be.
cause Of their repectiye locations rola-
tive to the North Atlantic high bar
ometer and the north magnetic polls,
and the same is true Of each Of the
other bodies and places that enter in.
to the calculations.
This system could be made very
valuable in Europe because they have
older and better weather records than
We have, but it would require more
money than l am able to command to
work it out.
A material drawback to the progress
Of this system is hat all our cid
weather records arc made up Of
monthly averages, while the old daily
records have been lost and neglected.
Monthly averages do not 1t this sys.
tenn we'll and there must necessarily
always be some deficits in the Caloula-
tions made up from them.
Since the national weather bureau
was established in 1871 the daily rec
ords have been kept, but they do not
cover enough time for this system.
Less than forty years is not valuable,
and therefore the weather bureau rec.
ord will not be good for US In this
system till after 1911.

A Better Way Now Discovered,
which Cures Every Form of Piles

and danger to life which a surgical
operation involves.
Happily all this suffering Is no

Of the Pyramid Pile Cure; q remedy
which is approved by the medical pro-
fsssion, as being absolutely safe, free
from any trace Of opiates, narcotic or
mineral poisons and which may DO de-
pended upon as q certain cure (not
merely reliet) in any form Of piles,
whether itching, blind, bleeding or
protruding. Some Of the hundreds Of
cures recently made are little short of
marvellous. ~ q p%erusal Of the follow
ing will demonstrate.
Major Dean Of Columbus, Ohio,
says: l wish to add to the number of
certificates as to the benefits derived
from the Pyramid Pile Cure. I suf-
fersd from piles for forty years and
from itching piles for twenty years
and two boxes Of the Pyramid Pile
Cure has efectually cured me.
DIR. j. w. Megan, Leonardville,
Kan, writes: l have used a box Of
Pyramid Pile Cure and received moro
benefit and relief than from any re-
medy / had used in the past twenty
two years.
James Jemerson, Dubuque, Iowa,
says. l suffered from Piles for six
years; have just used the Pyramid
Pile Cure and am a we'll man.
Mrs. M. G. Ainkly, COL Mississippi
st., Indianapolis, lad, says: Have
been a sufferer from the pain and an
