About the 14th TO 10th look for

heavier and more general storms, with
much hail in many sections Change

The 18th to 22nd will bring deeid-

falling barometer generally. These
conditions will eliminate about We'd

and hail. We name Friday, the 21st,
as the most probable day for disturb
ances, from the fact that the earth Is
on the equator at that date. Readers
must keep in mind the fact that the
opposition of Jupiter will intensity
these distur Dances during the last of
April. No one should be surprised or
alarmed to feel the earth shiver with
seismic shocks, and all storm clouds
during warm weather and low barom-
eter, should be carefully scanned be-
fore they break in unlookedfor fury
Another spell of very cool weather
with frost northward will naturally
follow after the storms of this period
lasting several days.
The reactionary storm period center
ing on the 25th and 26th is exactly
coincident with the full moon on the
day of Jupiter's opposition with earth
sun, both filling on the 25th. There is
no doubt that these oppositions of the
great planets are attended with such
notable phenomena in so many quar-
tiers OF the earth as to constitute a
maximum OF meteorological unrest
and perturbation. We call upon all
readers of these forecasts, especially
all who have access to the daily tele-
graphic news OF the world, to provide

or Very Hairy Nature Discovered Near
Gillett
A correspondent Of the Stuttgart
Free Press writing from Gillett, says:
THE other day came across freak
in the shape of human being. 1t is
a negro, or rather a mixture of the
races. Seven years ago he lost his
powers OF speech and locomotion and
went TO bed, where he has lain every
minute since. as helpless as an infant.
During that time hair has covered his
face, only the eyes being visible
through the woolly mass of hair; even
the forehead is covered. His finger
and toe nails have grown to be some
two inches long and look like animal
claws. He eats ravenously, devouring
crawtjsh whole; eats raw meats like a
ferocious beast of prey. Those who
have known him long say that he
could never talk niger" Indian or
English, his language being a con
glomeration of words, signs and grim
aces, and be makes himself under
stood in that way. One characteris-
ic of him that shows he is part human
is his inordinate love OF money When
ever he gets possession OF dollar il
goes out of circulation. The back OF
his head is bare of the hairy covering,
it having been worn off by his contin-
ual stay In he'd. The negroes in the
vicinity regard MIN as something sup
ernatural and some of them have .
superstitious dread OF being in his
presence, claiming that he is possessed
of devil and will sometime arise from
his bed and work dire mischief among
the colored population that may have
incurred his displessure
