A CABINET MEETING

WASHINGTON, Oct 3O.-An informal
session of the cabinet was held today The
president embraced the opportunity afforded
by the presence of several members of the
cabinet to discuss with them the forthcom.
ing annual reports. The members of the
cabinet present were: Secretaries Alger

General Smith. Assistant Secretary of the
Navy Allen, Adjutant General Corbin and
Surgeon General Sternberg were with the
president during part of the evening.
The peace negotiations at Paris were re-
ferred to, but were not seriously considered,
it is understood. This statement is borne
out by the fact that Secretary of State Hay
was not party to the conference. 1t is
authoritatively stated that none of the de-
velopments in the Paris situation have ar
rived here today. The president is said to
believe that the negotiations will be brought
to a satisfactory conclusion sooner, per

ACCORDING to Ezekiel Bonzy, who
is held to be the most accurate read
er of gooses breast bone in Maine,
the coming winter is going to be
cold. 1t is to start with a snow
storm which is TO come in Novem
Der, and the snow will stay on the
ground for the purpose of catching
and holding other snow storms that
will arrive frequently and with great
vigor until about the middle Of
March. Mixed in with the output
of snow will be hail, wind and con
sequent periods of zero weather. For
the first time in eight years the
goose bone is white at the front end,
Indicating early snow fall. And
then as the bone this year is very
wide and mostly white all over it's
surface, Bonzy infers that there will
be deep snow and good Shedding for
fully five months. His conclusions
are reinforced by researches among
corn husks, beechnuts, burs and the
fur of animals, all of which are un-
commonly thick and well laid on.
Acting on Bonzy's advice the lum-
bermen are planning to go into the
woods early and operators are get
ting options on large areas of STUN
page. For three years past Bonzy
has predicted that there would be
no snow until after the new year
and has it right every time.
