batting stick on some clothing and the

FIRE AT MOUNT AIRY.
Destruction of a Large Store and Valuable
Stock of Goods.

Early Thursday morning the two story brick
building and warehouse of Ernest Anderson,
at Mount Airy, on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad, was destroyed by fire, the origin of
which is not known. The stock of goods in
the store, owned by A. Anderson Il Co., was
also totally destroyed.
The burned buildings were valued at So, 500
and were insured for 81, 800. The stock of
goods was valued at $4,000, on which there
was insurance of $1,000. A colored man
going by the store about 1890 o'clock a. m.
first saw the fire. 1t was found that all the
doors and windows of the store were closed
A line of hose was run from C. A. Runkle's
Touring mills, which, together with bucket
brigade formed by the citizens, rendered eff.
fective service and confined the flames to the
building. However, when the flames burst
from the roof the people became alarmed, and
aid was asked from Frederick, but before the
fire engine reached the place the building col
lapsed. Baker & Gents hardware store, E.
M. Molesworth lumber yard, c. A. Runkle's
mills and other adjoining properties were in
great danger, but as everything was soaking
wet from the rains of the past several days the
flying embers did not ignite any of the prop

CINE, of Frederick, which was taken there on
a special train, arrived at 4. 10 o'clock, but as
there was not water supply sufficient two Bal

side of the gondola car on which the fire en-
CINE remained and supplied the steamer with

Hicks Forecasts For February.

Important things to keep in mind in con-
! nection with the forecasts. storm and weather
| for February, are that Venus perturbation
| covers nearly the whole of the month"; while
the Vernal equinox meets and combines with
the Venus period from about the 10th to the
end of the month.
The month will open warm and threaten
ing. Moon is on celestial equator on the LIST,
tending greatly to excite electrical storms in
many places. Disturbances will continue I'M
til about the 4th, bringing heavy rains turn
ing later to snow over much of the country.
A storm period to watch is from about Sun
day the 9Th to Thursday the 18th. The days
of greatest violence will be on and touching
the 10th and 11th. Dangerously high tides
will be most natural, with strong probabilities
of seismic disturbances. and heavy tropical
storms in the south. Violent rains may be
expected generally over southern and central
parts of the country, while a boreal counter
part in the form of a furious snow storm and
blizzard from the west and north need not
surprise any reader. The crisis of these dis
turbances will come on and next to the 18th.
The cold wave that would naturally appear
about the 18th may possibly be retarded until
after the moon S passage over the celestial
equator on the 18th. But those who do not
prepare for hard, winter storms, and for a
great cold wave and blizzard between the 9th
and 10th of February, will. we fear, pay
costly penalty. The final elimination of
these storms may not come before the 18th
and 10Th, which are central reactionary storm
days; but we caution all, especially those who
have large live stock interests at stake, to be
on their guard any time from the 9th until
the elimination comes. Don't be deceived
by delays and pleasant weather.
The storm period extending from the 18th
to the 23rd is covered by many disturbing fac
tors. Much danger may be apprehended at
this and other February periods, from the
gorging of streams and rivers by sudden floods
and the jamming of moving and crushing ice.
The last three days of the month will bring
return of general storm conditions, winding
up on the 18th with electrical disturbances
and heavy rains in many sections of the conn
try. Upon the whole, we forecast an unusu-
ally stormy and disagreeable February-a
comminging of Vernal, tropical storms, with
boreal and wintry visitations giving US a sue
cesson of extreme perturbations. attended by
sudden revulsions of freezing and thawing.
