Britons, but the reconciliation of the
Beers with the Beers.
Mr.. Chamberlain admitted that much
remained to be done, and said that IL
it was found that the work of pacifica-

Horse Thief Caught.

Deputy Sheriff Edward BradyEbrought
to Jail Sunday evening Isaac Pryor, col
ored, charged with the theft of gray
horse belonging to Mr.. George Winter, of
Accokeek, this county.
Pryor was arrested in Washington last
Saturday by policeman whose suspicion
was aroused by the small price received
for the horse. He sold the animal for $13.
After questioning him for some time Pryor
acknowledged that he had stolen the horse.
Mr.. Winter was notified and he went to
Washington and identified the gray horse
as belonging to him. At the same time
he told the police authorities that the man
who stole the gray had evidently stolen a
bay colt from some other farm on the
route, for a bay had been turned into his
pasture in place of the gray.
1t is believed that Pryor, whose home
Is in Washington, went to picnic at ely
mont, Charles county, colored resort on
the Potomac river, last Friday and be-
coming stranded appropriated the horses
to get home again.
Pryor was given preliminary hearing
on Tuesday morning before Justice of the
Peace J. Alfred Ridgely, but owing to the
absence of several witnesses he was COM
mitted to Jail for further hearing.

Items from Laurel.

The removal this week of Madame
Honorine Jardin from our town deserves
more than passing notice. as it is a sub
ject of universal regret to our people, all
of whom feel that her place cannot easily
be filled in this community. For the
period of thirty years and over, this esti
mable lady has resided in our midst, de-
voted to the interests of St Mary's Church,
where she has ever been a faithful wor-
shipper. Influential and prominent in
all good works her beautiful charities,
like kindly dews Of Heaven, have been
distributed as silently and as refreshingly
classes, and wherever there was sorrow,
suffering or want her kind heart has ever
been ready to sympathize and her gen :
erous hand to afford relief Mr.. Charles
J. Marc, recently of New York, son in
law of Ma dame Jardin, has purchased a
handsome residence on U street, Wash.
ington, and she and her devoted sister,
Miss Theresa Favier, will become inmates
of her daughters home. 1t is needless to
say that the good wishes of many old
friends will go with them, together with
sincere parting regrets.

Hicks for September.

The first storm period for September is
central on the 4th, extending from the I'd
to the 9TH. This period embraces moon
in apogee on the 3rd, full on the 9th and
on the equator on the 7th.
Signs of approaching storms will ap-
pear about the 3rd. weather will grow
warmer in the West, the barometer will
begin falling in the same region, and
cloudiness and rain will follow, growing
in volume as they pass eastward and
reaching eliminating crisis from the
9Th to the 7th
Autumnal thunder storms and squalls
will be natural in many sections on the
9th and 9TH.
Weather changes will come in rapid
succession at this time, but we believe the
dominant state of the weather will be
warmer above the average.
The 9th, 10th and 18th are reactionary
storm days, on and about which marked
storm conditions will arise.
The opposition of the great planet, Ju-
piter, falls on the 18th, which is known
by all who have long followed our theo-
~, to be the central day of a regular an
nual maximum of magnetic and electric
excitation. All things considered, atmos-
pheric and seismic perturbations of wide
and violent character would be quite ma.
tural anywhere within week or Ten days
of the 18th.
A regular Vulcan storm period is CEN
trail on the 10Th covering the 18th to 10Th.
The new moon falls on the celestial equa-
tor on the 10th, being co-incident with the
central day of the Earth's Autumnal equi-
nox and with the Moon at an eclipse
node. This is also at the center of the
Venus equinox.
The strong probabilities are that threat
ening, unsettled, stormy weather will be-
gin during the period 18th to 10Th and
run into the reactionary period central on
the Goth to 23rd.
One of two extremes always results un-
der such astronomical conditions as exist
at this time, general and violent storms,
or the almost total absence of storms,
with prolonged period of hot weather,
ending in many earthquakes and seismic
disturbances.
The last storm period of the month is
central on the 9th, extending from the
18th to the Both. This period has the
combined forces Of Mercury, Venus and
Earth with Moon at first quarter, south
declination and apogee.
We predict that this period will bring
a series of severe storms. and that the
crisis of these will fall on and touching
the Goth to Goth This is also a period in
which dangerous gulf storms may reason
ably be expected.
At the windup of this period sweep
ing high barometer, out of the northwest,
will bring severe dash of autumnal
weather, with high, boreal winds, clear
ing skies and frosts in many places in
northern and central states
This final elimination may not reach
most sections before the opening days of
October, but such change is almost a
certainty before the end of the Mercury
disturbance which is central on Septem-
Der 30th.-Word and Works.
