TUESDAY,, JULY 7.
FOR JULY.

DIR. Irl Hicks almanac makes the
following predictions for the n
of July: This month will come in with
cloudy weather and drilling rain IN
NAM sections. About the Ind and 3rd
this unsettled condition will grow into
more storm conditions. 1t
will turn much warmer and the atmos-
phere will grow muggy and close. The
doctor predicts that the Glorious
Fourth" will be a stormy day in many
parts of the country.
These predictions have been pretty
well followed out / the elements. So
Tar in this month they have not gone
back on the doctors predictions. 1t
certainly has been warmer, with a
close muggy' atmosphere in these
diggings. and the press dispatches an
nounce a violent storm or the md on
the north Atlantic coast.
So far for the first three days. Now
lets see what Dr.. Hicks promises for
the balance of the month. The second
storm period, he says. extends from the
7th to the 18th. being central on the
9th We are to ooh for extremely warm
weather, south winds and falling ba-
rOmeter. Storms Will start in the west
about the On and reach our section by
the 10th or 18th. Storm clouds Will be
black and threatening. with probability
of violent winds.
This brings US up to the third storm
period central on the 14th and 18th. AT
this time there will be another great
wave of heat. There Will be heavy
electrical and rain storms, generally
confined to limited areas. The barome-
ter will rise and the eathe will turn
cooler about the 10th.
What to look for during the last halt
of the month we will give our readers
later. The above is enough for one in
stallment, especially in such weather
as this. We do not think The Messen-
ger readers would care for more at this
time, but would prefer to take it in
broken doses. But we will say to those
who like to grumble about the weather
that DR.. Hicks will not disappoint
them. During the last haIf of July and
all OF August they can declare each
day that it is the hottest they ever saw
or that the storms are the severest in
their memory.
"Quantum sufficit." We will wait for
the next installment.

The board of aldermen of his city
and the county commissioners have
come to a clash over the fixing of the
sidewalk in front of the court house
square. Some time ago the city found
it necessary while making improve
ments to the street to cut OWL the
street in front of the court house about
four feet. Now the county commits
siOners hin the city should cut the
sidewalk down n build a brick wall
next to the square. The Aldermen think
the commissioners should bear the ex-
pense and the matter stand unadjuSt-
ed. A conference between the two
boards has already been had on the
subject and last night the board of al
dermen appointed another committee to
wait on the commissioners and try to
settle the matter.
