COLES FOR JULY.


From Storms and Signs
Mothe" Earth is now in the House OF
Fortune, opposed by King Leo, the lion
the king of the low-ebb forces-who
will send epidemics, drought, microbes,
strange new bugs and parasites to af-
flict Earth. Fortunately for America
she stands in good position to receive
much benefit from the great planets
Jupiter, Uranus and Saturn: therefore.
while good fortune may be smiling
upon her, some of the countries in the
old world will be in riot. wars and
many things evil which may astonish
the world. But let us not forget that
while fortune may be smiling upon her,
here in America many disease microbes
both in the animal and vegetable king
dom may creep in upon us unaware.
Therefore We warn mankind to prepare
themselves to ward off these awful dis
case germs which will abound, as we
have reasons to believe that the air will
be highly charged with deadly poison.
The greatest danger from storms
during the current month will be be-
tween the I'd and eth; Sth and 12th:
14th and 18th: and from the 21st to the
3Oth severe storms may be looked for.
A warm wave of insufferable heat will
strike some sections, while cold wave
bordering on frost and snow will visit
others. The latter half of the month
will bring strange phenomenal and
earth disturbances or phenomenal
weather. The sunset, also the sunrise
scenes this month will be beautiful to
behold; therefore watch out for this
grand picture which nature supplies for
the poor as well as for the rich. Cloud
bursts, hurricanes and cyclones will
mark a hard record in some of the
Western and Southern states, and vio-
lent hail. wind and rain storms will
visit the Eastern states.
The locusts have already made their
appearance in the Southern states, and
we have reasons to believe that sew
| eral new forms of microbes will put in
| their appearance this month in some
| localities and make an attack upon
grain and vegetables and that hun

The best day OF the month to fish
will be the 18th, and the next best days
will be I'd, 9th, 18th, 22d and 29th.

be Monday, the 18th. Buckwheat should
be sown about o'clock in the after.

The actor richest in his direct earn
ings is Joseph jefferson. He has
drawn very large audiences during
more than forty years. the plays he
presents cost him nothing in royalties
to their authors, his companies are
moderate in the payroll, he divides
with no partner, and his share Of the
gross receipts leaves no large portion
to the theatre in which he appears.

who has turned some of his income

An actor who made a great deal

The same thing is true of Edward
Harrington. The Irish comedians, An

be put down at $4,000 each for the
season. their managers making as
much more. Peter +. Daily is there

two more OF the German dialect actors,
have a joint fortune of 100000, made

their efforts. To get back into the

as Helena Modjeska, James O'Neil,

Louis James, Kathryn Kidder, and
Robert Mantell-whom the managers
do not regard as money +"
Yet they clear $4,000 apiece annually
on the average, That isn't so bad for
a calling once despised and ill-paid.

pire. SO the citizens petitioned the Legis-

their charter.
The bridge has recently been incorpo-
rated under the name of the Clarksville

capital OF $4,000, to be divided into shares
