FOSTERS FORECAST.
The Kind of Weather we are Going
To Have.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-. Nov. 81 My last
bulletin gave forecasts of the storm
waves to cross the continent from
20 to Goth.
The next disturbance will reach the
Pacific Coast about the 9th, cross the
Western mountain country by the close
Of the 28th, the Great Central Valleys
the 20 to December 90 and the East
ern States about the 2.
Warm wave will crsss the west of
Rockies country about the 9th, great
central valleys 29td, Eastern States
/.
Cool wave will cross the west of
Rockies about tn: 3Oth, the great GEN.
trail valleys 2, and Eastern States
8.
The most notable feature of this
disturbance Will be above the average
of the past four months. With each
succeeding disturbance the rains or
SHOWS will encroach on the drouth Sec
tions CT the past Summer and Fall,
till by the first part of January, 1896,
an unusual amount of snow and rain
will have fallen.
As the October drouth was correctly
foretold, it will be of much more in
terest to note the forecasts of these
general SHOWS and rains. If these lat
ter verify the forecasts the interest will
largely increase as to the crop season
weather of 1896, the calculations for
which are now complete.
My weather maps for 1896 clearly
indicate where the excessive rains
will occur. In parts of the United
States severe drouth is indicated for
April, May, June and August.

"The Chaperon."

The young ladies of the High school
will give the three act comedy, "The
Chaperon," at the Opera House this
evening. The play is full of amusing
situations, pretty groupings and piq-
uant dialog, and under the thorough
training of Miss Mary Mcleod have
prepared an entertainment that will be
well worth attending. The object of
the entertainment is to raise money to
pay for the piano which was placed in
the High school room some time ago.
They have given several small enter
tainments at the school room which
have been literally attended, and now
that they have ventured into the Opera
House in hopes of raising the needed
money at once, the public should not
let their hopes be crushed. This is no
charity entertainment. You are all
interested in the schools, and want to
see the scholars succeed in everything.
Besides, they have an entertainment
that will surely repay you fully for the
cost of the tickets. Give them a rous-
ing big house. Seats are on sale at
Pierce's pharmacy.
