Iune Weather Lore.

There is a good deal Df samcmeSS about
the weather lore for June. The natural

that there is unanimity OF opinion as to
me weather TO he desired for the next
lew weeks that We do not tind in the
weather lore of any other month. For
June IS the great growing month. The
time OF blossom is over. All danger from
frost Is gone. ana the dangers that
threaten the earlier year have done their
best, or worst. only the steady growth

warm and not too dry. Drought is the
enemy now most 70 be feared by the
growing year. and though the holiday
maker may object to the sentiment that
warm rain and calm in June sets every
thing in tune" there can he no doubt
that. it fits i'm exactly with the natural
requirements of the month The holiday

weather rhymes in favor Of dry warmth

There are quite a number Of saints
days throughout the summer about which
il Is commonly supposed that if it rains
upon them i will rain for set period
afterward. The best known of these is
St. Swithin.s day. June, however. has
several Of these dismally prophetic dates

then; but the saying To that effect has
compensation by beng coupled with the
opinion that if it rains on st. Medard

both these days being wet the weather
rhymes wisely refrain from saying. In
some parts of England it is st. Vitus

with this power Of fixing the weather to

Those who are interested in weather
correspondence and can bear the matter
in mind for SO long will find a subject for
observation and verification in the com
mon belief that when il Is hottest in
June it will be coolest in the correspond

other natural weather indications. how
ever there are others that will probably
repay observation better than this.

DENOUNCED BY SHAW.
Action of DetrOiters i'm Placing G. A.
II. at Rear of Dewey Parade.

CHICAGO. June Accommodated
Albert d. Shaw, of the Grand Army of the
Republic, has arrived here from Grand
Rapids. where he attended the Michigan
Department encampment. When asked
what he thought of the action Of placing
the Grand Army in the rear of the Detroit
Dewey parade, he said: II think ii was
utterly indefensible to do this shabby
thing with the ageing heroes who, by their
services and sacrifices In the sixties, saved
this great Nation so that the opportunity
came in the nineties for Dewey TO earn the
fame of a great admiral In the Detroit pa
rade the Grand Army men were placed in
the rear behind the letter carriers, and by
<an accident after the carriers had passed
che crowd surged into the street, thinking
the parade was over. blocking the progress
of the Grand Army. Had they been at the
head of the line, where they should have
been, this lack of due honor would not
have happened. In the ST. Louis Dewey
parade the veterans were at the front. and
so it always should be until they cease to
march in public parades.

infinite wisdom: the obedience Of man In
alliance with the omnipotence of God. A
chain binding you 10 Christ is better than
the garlands of license. The yoke OF serv-
ltuce to righteousness is the sure token
OF increasing power and dominion. The stu
dent who really knows Christ in personal
Fellowship realizes the full scope OF his
own life. There is deeper knowledge OF
himself. There Is more in himself worth
knowing. He has more implicit self-con-
troll. He is not tickle. vibrating between
dizzy conceit and self-disgust. He feels
the unity of the presence of the future
life. This is life ETERNAL that they might
know thee. the only true God and Jesus
Christ whom thou has sent AS by fuller
acquaintance he learns and appreciates
the largeness of Christ. he grows in his
own statue, truth for truth and grace for

"BLACK WEEK, AT BERLIN.
Iron and Coal Shares Fell on More
Than Twenty-Five Points.


BERLIN, June 1O.-Last week was the
worst the Boerse has known for twenty
years. Many of the most substantial iron
and coal shares fell more than twenty-five
points. From Thursday conditions were
very panicky, with phenomenal declines in
both lines of securities. The banks forced
weak customers to sell their holdings. the
public thus suffering great losses. The
financial press refers to II as BLACK week"
An impetus was given TO the panic by re-
ports from the United States of the over
production of the iron market there, to-
gether with the shutting down of mills and
reductions in prices. The situation is COM
mented upon here as foreshadowing an in
vasion of the German market Hitherto
German producers have stoutly denied that

within a week, a first-class Westphalian
firm having purchased 1900 tons of Amer
lean open hearth iron from a London
house. 1t also appears that American foun-
dry iron has been offered in Berlin for IS
marks. In all this the financial press sees

The Silesian iron market is reported decid-

OBJECT TO ALL REFORMS
CUBAN LAWYERS SEEM TO PREFER
SPANISH METHODS.
Justice Recognized AZ . Matter of Dol
lars and Cents-Revfval of the
Scheme for a Cuban Navy.

HAVANA, June 10.-Cuban Justice" is
recognized as having become merely a
matter of dollars and cents. and the Gu
ban lawyers seem to object to all reforms
For instance. the charge against Secre-
tary Souza, of the Cathedral Court, who
was arrested Friday night for bribery,
has not been referred to by any Havana
paper printed in Spanish. One editor,
when the case was called to his attention,
said he could not afford to antagonize men
holding such positions. Even though
marked money was found on Souzas per-
son and the conversation between him
and Carlos Bacarrise, in which he said
that justice cost money, was overheard
by a detective whom Bacarrise had en-
ployed at the suggestion of Governor Gen
eral Wood, it is still felt that the Of
fetal will not be punished.
A similarly gloomy view is taken with
reference to the outcome of the custom
house fraud case. The Post this morning
said: 1.-THE relations existing between those
charger with this crime and the members
of the courts before which they will be
tried have led the accused to brag openly
that they will come out of the struggle
without a scar" A brother of one of the
accused persons is a son-in-law of the
chief justice.
In criminal matters about the only pro-
lection American and other foreigners
have is the court of Captain Pitcher, po-
lice magistrate, but he has very limited
power, the extent of the penalties he may
enforce being ten days or $40. Although
Captain Pitcher may possibly have made
mistakes, his court is of incalculable adj
vantage. The principal complaint that a
certain section of Americans make is that
he places too much reliance upon what
his court abolished and the consular
courts restored so as to give their rights
due protection.
General Lacret has brought before Gov
ernor General Wood the plan which orig
mated last year for forming Cuban navy.
sells, having in view for the present the
protection of Cuban fisheries and the pre-
vention of smuggling. He desires that all
the naval property be turned over to the
Cubans and that a large staff be en-
ployed at the naval arsenal in repairing
ships which could be made self-support-
ing. In the scheme many officers are ar
ranged for, together with numerous clerks
of departments and subdepartments. Last
year the entire plan was rejected as un-
necessary, 1t being felt that twelve small
revenue cutters would be adequate, and
that these could DE maintained much
cheaper in connection with the customs
department. General Wood takes the same
view, and the Cuban navy, therefore, will
probably remain in allegiance until Cuba
is Independent.

TRADE WITH THE PHILIPPINES.
Exports tn the United States and Other
Countries Increasing.

WASHINGTON, June 10.-The important
Information was given out by the division
OF customs and insular affairs of the War
Department to-day that the exports at
the port of Manila, Philippine islands, for
the first three months of 1900 show an in
crease Of s2,05O. 443 over the same period of
1899. The exports for January, 1899. were
81 22. SOC; for January, 1900 s55ss7s for
February. 1899, s3.459.56S; for February, 1900
$,6s0, 73l; for March. 1892 $685. s1; for
March. 1900, S.. 3s2. 22S.
In the matter of exports from the Philip
pines during the month of March, 1900
Hong-Kong leads, England ranks second
and the United States third. During the
month Of March. 1900. there were exported
from the port of Manila 1910 tons of
Manila hemp, valued at s3.190,357 The
United States took 80 400 tons, valued at
N.11. go and England 1928 tons. valued at
81. 739. $50.
The notable increase in the value of mer-
chandise exported during the month of
March. 1900. from the port of Manila Is
largely due TO the opening CT numerous Gus
toms ports to the coastwise trade thus
permitting large quantities of hemp to be
brought to Manila for export.
