How the Government Indications Can BE
Utilized to Best Advantage.
"Amplification of Weather Fore
casts is the title of an article by Al
fred j. Henry, professor OF meteorolo-
gy. weather bureau, which will appear
in the Year Book OF the Department
of Agriculture. Mr.. Henry says:
The time at the disposal of the
forecast official Of the weather bureau
at the central office in Washington
city for the purpose OF forecasting
probable weather changes, cold waves
and severe storms is about thirty min
utes in the morning and forty at night.
IT is impossible in this short time to
do more than express the character
Of the anticipated changes for each
state or district east of the Rocky
Mountains i'm any but the most gen
eral terms. The local or State fore
cast official. on the other hand, is
concerned with but Il single district.
He is At liberty to amplify the nation
al foretaste or TO put forth Il state
ment of his own, in which the antici-
pated changes may be given in as much
detail as the conditions seem to
justify.
Persons who use the forecasts con-
stantly should cultivate the habit OF
carefully noting the weather changes
in their respective localities, especial
ly the sequence in which such changes
occur, for it is only by acquiring n
knowledge Of local weather signs that
they can use Government forecasts to
the best advantage.
Persons whose working hours are
largely spent in the open air soon be-
come familiar with the changing as
poets of the sky and the condition of
the atmosphere as to its moisture con
tent, viz: whether relatively dry or
humid. If careful observers of natur.
al phenomena they note also the shift
OF the wind and the sequence OF
weather which follows In this way
and without special effort a fund OF
weather wisdom IS soon acquired
which needs only to be properly CORE
lated in order TO serve Il most useful
purpose. The greatest advantage will
naturally accrue to the individual who
reads and accurately interprets not
only the Government forecasts, but
also the local weather signs"
Mr.. Henry devotes the remainder of
his paper TO a description of the local
sign of falling weather-Wa Washington
Star.

Two Kind. Of Porridre.

How is it that the agricultural folk
in the south OF England will not take
at all TO porridge as the Scotch peas
antry do? Possibly the explanation is
that for the most part they know
nothing whatever about this admirable
food, which makes bone and muscle.
and is, moreover. so palatable TO the
majority OF people who have tried it
for a while. The rural workers could
not. it is true, often afford to take milk
with their porridgc. as the well.to-do
people i'm the south Of England who
cat this food DO but Scotch peasants
seem to prefer porridge and salt to p6r-

CHAPTER XIV.
FREDERICK ARRESTED.

But, alas, all tides have their ebb as
well as flow, and before Mr.. Sutherland
and Frederick were well out of the
main street the latter became aware
that Notwithstanding the respect with
which his explanations had been re-
ceived by the jury there were. many of
his fellow townsmen who were ready
! to show dissatisfaction at his being al
lowed to return in freedom to that
home where he had still every prospec;
of being called the young master.
(, Doubt, that seed Of ramifying growth,
had been planted in more than one
! breast, and while it failed MS yet to-
break out into any open manifestation
there were evidences enough in, the
very restraint visible in such groups of
people as they passed that Suspicion
had not been suppressed or Ills inno-
.cenee established by the overfayorable
verdict of the coroner's jury. ".

love and domestic happiness should

youth. He could never marry SO pure
being while the shadow Of crime sep
arated him from the mass of human
beings. Her belief in his innocence and
the exact truth of his story (and he was
confident she did believe HIM could
make no difference in this conclusion.
While he was regarded openly or in
dark corners or beside the humblest
tireside as possible criminal neither
Mr.. Sutherland nor her. father nor his
own heart even would allow him to
offer her anything but friends graft
tude or win from her anything but a
neighbours sympathy, yet in bidding
goodby to larger hopes and more lmpor-
tant desires he parted with the better
part of his heart and the only solace
remaining in this world for the bound

his still young life. He had learned to
love through suffering, only to realize
that the very nature Of his suffering
forbade him to indulge in love.

her burden to bear, too-an awful Sc
cret burden, like my own, only she will
have the child, for, Philemon, she has
taken it in lieu of her own, which died
last night in my sight. And Mr.. Suth-

done and never will If you keep the Sc
cret as shall for the sake of the life

The solemn way in which Frederick
barred his head in acknowledgment of
this public recognition Of the hold he
still retained on this one faithful heart
struck awe into the hearts Of all who
saw IT. So that the carriage rolled
off in silence, closing one Of the most
thrilling and impressive scenes ever
witnessed in that time worn village.

CHAPTER XIV.
FATHER AND SON.

But Frederick's day of trial was not
yet over. There was closed door to
open, father to see las in his heart
he still called Mr.. Sutherland). Then
there were friends to face. and foes,
under conditions he, better than any
one else, knew were in some regards
made worse rather than better by tho
admissions and revelations of this
eyentful day-Agnes, for instance.
How could he meet her pure gaze?
But it was his father he must first con-
front, his father to whom he would
have to repeat in private the tale
which robbed the best of men of a
past and took from him son, almost
wife, without leaving him one memo
ry calculated to console him. Frederick
was SO absorbed in this anticipation
that he scarcely noticed the two or
three tiniid hands stretched out in en-
couragement toward him and was NOV
ing slowly toward the door, behind
which his father had disappeared SO
many hours before, when he was re-
called to the interests Of the moment
by u single word, uttered not very far
from him. 1t was simply, "Well?" But
1t was uttered by Knapp and repeated
by Mr.. Courtney.
Frederick shuddered and was hurry
ing on when he found himself stopped
by piteous figure that, with appealing
eyes and timid gestures stepped up be-
fore him. 1t was Amabel.
Forgiven she murmured looking
like pleading saint. II did not know,

And he was passing ON when another
touch detained him. He turned, this
time in some Impotence, only to meet
the frank eyes of Sweetwater AS he
knew very little of this young man
save that lie was the amateur detective
who had by some folly of his own been
carried off ON the Hesper and who was
probably the only man saved from its
wreck he was about to greet him with
some commonplace phrase of congratlI-
lation when Sweetwater interrupted
him with the following words:
II only wanted to say that 1t may be
easier for you to approach your father

And, waiting for no reply, he melted
into the crowd.
Frederick passed at once to his ia

No one. Interrupted Frederick after
he had shut that door behind him, but
the large crowd that in the halls and
on the steps of the building awaited
his temperance showed that the pub
lie interest was still warm in a matter
affecting SO deeply the heart and in
terests of their best citizen. When,
therefore, that long closed door final
ly. opened and Frederick was seen es-
corting Mr.. Sutherland on his arm,
the tide of feeling which had not yet
subsidized since Agatha's letters were
read vented itself in one great sob
Of relief, for Mr.. Sutherland's face was
calmer than when they had last seen
1t and his step more assured, and he
leaned or made himself lean on Fred
erick's arm, as If to impress upon all
who saw them that the ties Of years
cannot be shaken off so easily and that
he still looked upon Frederick us his
son.
But he was not contented with this
dumb show, eloquent as it was. AS the
crowd parted and these two imposing
| figures took their way down the steps
to the carriage which had been sent
for them Mr.. Sutherland cast one deer
and long glance about him on faces he
knew and faces he did not know, or

did not tremble as much as might have
been expected, said deliberately:

To hear the official organ eXpound
ponderous wisdom one might think
Hawaii possessed the only Legislature
on earth that failed to pass revenue
law during its regular session. The
Colorado Legislature will soon meet in
extra session to consider the revenue
bill, which, though it was introduced
on the second day of the session, failed
10 become law. The pill was hotly
contested by corporation influences and
passed during the last few minutes OF
the session, the extension of time being
secured by turning the hands Of the
clock back. The Colorado Supreme
Court has held that gaining time by
stopping the clock is not legitimate,
hence Colorado has an extra session
and another long fight on its hands.
There are others outside the Territory
OF Hawaii who have been talking
against time.

PROVE THE CHARGE.

The Governor of the Territory OF Ha-

Legislature now in session have ac-
cepted brides.
no more serious charge can be
brought against an American citizen
and more particularly those citizens
called to the important trust Of repre-
sentlng and legslating for the people.
The charge is direct and made by the
Governor in his official capacity. being
given as one of his reasons and neces.
sarily an important reason for his re-
tusal to extend the session of the Legis-
iature.
II there are in the Legislature men
who have accepted brides. 1t is not
only the privilege, It is the duty Of the
Governor to prove his charges that;
such men may be expelled and given
their Just deserts. II corruption causes
the Governor to refuse an extension

public opinion and awarded the sem

The popular voice will demand that
the Governor not only be given the
opportunity but that he shall prove
his charge before the Legislature pro-
ceeds with the important work, of deal

which is to be taken up by the extra
session.

action of popular representatives. Gov,
ernor Dole should have weighed his
words before he uttered them. 1t il
to be presumed he did. He has
cast a slur upon the good name Of each
and every member Of the Legislature,
Let him now prove his charge; let him
prove that he has spoken from knowl-
edge of fact and did not mouth the
street corner gossip that says anything
without thought of truth. He has
made the statement. He cannot back

all the ignominy the well merited and
universal condemnation and disrepute
that clusters about the briber and the

corruption known to the American
people.
