GOOSE BONE WHITE IN FRONT.
Corn Husks, Nuts and Fur Also Tell
of a Hard Winter Coming.

According to Ezekiel Bonzy, who is
held to be one of the most accurate read
ers of goose's brcastbone in Maine, the
coming winter is going to be a shorter.
1t is to start with a snowstorm, which
wall come in November, and the snow
will stay on the ground for the purpose
of catching and holding other snowstorms
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 consecutive periods
of zero weather, which will cause great
demand for overcoats and double mittens.
For the first time in eight years the
goose bone is white at the front end, in
dicaiing an early snowfall. AS the bone
Of lS0S-99 is very wide and mostly white
over all its surface, Mr.. Bonzy infers
there will be deep snow and good sled
ding for fully five months. His conclu-
sions are well reinforced by researches
among corn husks, beechnut burrs and
the fur of animals, all of which are un-
commonly thick and well laid on.
Acting on Mr.. Bonzy's advice the lum-
bermen are planning to go into the woods
early, and operators are getting options
upon large areas of stumpage. For three
years past Mr.. Bonzy has predicted that
there would be no snow until after the
new year and has hit it right every time.
Therefore much confidence is placed in
his representations this year.

WHITE DAMs0N PLUMs.
Only One Man in the World Has This
Fine Plum.

Nearly so years ago General Adair, the
attended an exhibition at Louisville.
There he met Lawrence Young, an en-
thusiast from jefferson county, who, had
on exhibition what he termed white
damson plum. General Adair had never
heard of the variety before and was anx-
ious for some Of the trees. Mr.. Young
promised to send him some, but for some
reason failed to do SO. About 20 years
ago the general made another effort but
learned that Young had died. A few
years later Major Haines Of Louisville
visited in Hawesville and told General
Adair that he knew the Young farm, but
that no such plum had ever grown upon
it; but he promised to examine all the
surrounding farms and see if he could
find the desired fruit. About 10 years
ago Major Taylor found some small plum
sprouts in an abandoned fence corner
near the Young farm anu sent them to
Adair, who planted them and improved
them. He has been rewarded by pro,
ducing fine milk-white damson, sweet a.
sugar, and about four times as large as
the old blue danison. This new plum
never decays, but dries up like raisin,
and never falls from the tree. They have
been known to keep in house for two
years. General Adair is the only man
in the world who has this fine plum,
and he has only a few trees. Judge John
Adair is going to plant 500 of the trees

YELLOW JACK SPREADING.
The State Of Mississippi Ia Grad

Washington, Oct. l7.-Ninety eight
new cases Of yellow fever in Mississippi
were officially reported Saturday.
Without the Intervention of frost the
spread of yellow fever over the entire
state of Mississippi seems a certainty.
ach nights report indicates how surely
and rapidly the disease is getting the
whole state into its clutches. Two couli-
ties were added this week to the list OF
the infected, making a total of IL coun-
ties or nearly 25 per cent of the whole
number These are Pearl River and Per
ry, both in the southeastern part of the
state.
The continuance of the present warm
weather will guarantee further spread,
which the resources of the state board
seem unable to stop. The disease is firm
ly rooted in all the different sections OF
Mississippi and its appearance in counties
adjoining those already in the grasp OF
the fever is only question of short
time. The state board of health has, OF
course, long ago despaired of continuing
the infection, and is now devoting itself
more to the general work of relief and Sc
curing of nurses for the places that are
stricken. 1t is still waging a stubborn
but hopeless fight against the rapid ad-
vance and whenever new place is re-
