OLD SOL TO DO STUNTS.
Isl. Hicks Says There Will Be Hot
Time During Augurt.

i
will old Sol do several speciality acts,
but the king of disturbances will be
on the boards and do stunts which
promise to terrorize the good people.
In other words he will s'throw the
scare" right we'll. The whole month
of August will feel more or less the
influence of the eqninox of the plan
ct Mars. Regular storm disturbances
will be due from the 1st to the 4th of
August. The probabilities are that
the natural warmth to be expected at
this season will grow into crisis of
summer heat about the LIST, End and
3rd. to be followed progressively from
the west by low barometer, threaten
ing clouds and severe clustering
Local rains-some of them quite heavy
may attend these storms, but the
general supply and diffusion of rains
over the country promise to be short
and poorly distributed. Rising
barometer and change to more pleas
ant conditions for few days will be
natural b3hind the perturbations at
this time, extending eastward over
country by the 18th and 9Th.
A reactionary storm period exists
on the 9th, and 9TH, during which
days look for increase of warmth,
falling barometer and marked ten
dency to black cloud, thunder and
storminess. These disturbances will
eliminate on and touching the 9Th
some central to northern parts of the
country being visited by severe sum
mer squalls. Change to rising ba
rometer, westerly winds and cooler
will press in from the west and north,
as low barometer and storm move
eastwardly out of the way bringing
partial respite from summer heat for
two or three days.
One of the cheated terms" of the
month will appear from about the 18th
to the 10Th. At the beginning of
this period the warm wave will start |
in western sections, attended by low
and falling barometer; easterly to
southerIy winds will increase the heat
over all sections east of the actual
storm centers. AS the low barometer
moves eastward, threatening clouds,
with severe local storms will visit
many sections, with favorable con-
ditto Ms for some generous midsummer
rains.
While the heat, wave and storms
are still passing central and eastern
parts of the country, change to cooler
will be advancing from the west and
north, so that by the 18th and 10Th
most parts of the country will have
felt the change to cooler weather
There will be perceptsble reaction to
rising temperature, falling barometer
and return to cloudiness and storms
IN and touching the 18th and 18th,
'ollowed by another return to cooler
more pleasant weather about the 18th
o 21st.
General storm conditions will de-
7elop over the country, and inland
storms of more os less intensity may
reasonably be expected about the 9th
o 9th. If equatorial storms appear
n the south at this time, reaching re-
,ions as far north as our extreme
outhern states, phenomenally cool
weather. will follow the storms over
Ill central to northwestern slater.
such result need not be surprise to
'ur readers,
The 10Th and 30tl will bring
eaction to storm cor ditions, and more
If less storminess and rain will result
n many localities. Rising barome-
or and change to cooler weather
generally will mark closing hours of :
he month. I
The disturbances prevalent during
he month of August, whatever may !.
q their peculiar characteristics, as !
lready limited in the foregoing, will 9
ontinue on the same lines. doubtless :,
