The deplorable death by accident of
Col. F. NJ. F. Smith, of Smithton, is a
sad blow to the many friends and rela-
tives of that venerable gentleman. Col.
Smith was typical Virginia gentle
man of the old school. kindly, whole
souled, hospitable and generous to a
fault. Although he had passed the al
lotted three score and ten by five years,
he was still an active man and will be
sadly missed and deeply mourned by his
numerous friends and admirers and re-
lations.

When the man who was sent ahead to
engage quarters in Albany for the com
mittee OF the Union League Club told the
proprietor of the hotel what he wanted he
was asked:
DO you want rooms such as are usually
used for headquarters
'How do sucn rooms differ from other.?"
asked the emissarv.
why, they are arranged so that people
can go In one door and out another with
out pelng seen by those entering" was the
reply.
we don't want that KIND" said Mr..
sage, who was acting for the friends of
Mr.. Choate. 1--WE don't want any one who
Is afraid OF being seen in our headquarters
TO come there. A man who is coward
enough TO want to sneak out of the back
door is not brave enough to vote for Mr..

EXPLANATION.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top figures
9 station indicate maximum temperature for the
days: those underneath It, II any, the amount OF
2einfall Of melted snow in inches and hundredths,
during the past twelve hours. lsobars, or solid
lines, connect poin OF equal air pressure; isO-
therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word "high" means high barometric pressure and
is usually accompanied by fair weather: ''low"
and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains.
Lows" usually first appear on the Washington
coast. When the pressure is high in the interior
end low along the coast, and the isobsrs extend
north and south along the coast, rain is probable:
but when The Glow Is inclosed with Isobars of
marked curvature rain south Of Oregon is improb
able. With high" in the vicinity OF Idaho and
the pressure falling the California coast, warmer
weather may be expected in summer and colder
weather in winter The reverse Of these conditions
&1ll pFoduce an opposite result.
