TO AVOID LIGHTNING
DRY WOOD AND RUBBER SHOULD
PROTECT FROM DAMP
GROUND.
Beware of Damp Ground, Shelter of
Trees or Shrubs = Many Electrical
Storms During Month of June -
Forecast by Rev. lri Hicks.

HOW u dNOlu dangerous COuSt'
duences from lightning forms a part
of the weather forecast by Rev. Irl
Hicks for the weather for the month
of June. Walking upon the damp
moist ground. taking shelter under
trees or shrubbery are classified as
dangerous things to do if one would
avoid danger points during the prog
ress of lightning storms. Safety lies
in placing all the possible dry wood
and rubber between one and damp or
wet ground or air currents.
Aside from the many electrical
storms which are booked for June the
month is. according to the forecast to
be very pleasant and sensible one.
The forecast is as follows:
A reactionary period of disturbance
is central on the first and second days
of June. calling for higher temperature
falling barometer, increased humidity
and progressive storms of wind, rain
and thunder from the first to about
the third. Rising barometer, change to
westerly winds clearing and cooler
will supplant and follow the storm
area, the change behind the storms
passing eastward across the country
from about the third to the fifth
Western extremes will begin to feel
the growing influence of the Vulcan
storm period as early as the fourth and
fifth. This period is central on the
sixth, extending from the fourth to the
nintd. This period will begin with
change to much warmer in western
section and rising temperature, falling
barometer and storms of rain, wind
and thunder will march eastwardly
across the country from about the
sixth to the ninth. On and touching
Tuesday, the seventh these disturb
anees -YiHaA at their crises III, the re-
4lV in the Mississippi and
C..lu Valleys. Under pressure of the
perihelion of the great planet, Jupiter
sombined with the annual summer SOL
stice perturbations, much electrical
phenomena will attend all the storm
periods in June. This Vulcan period
will not be an exception The tenden-
cy to much lightning in the evenings
and throughout the nights will be very
marked. even outside of the limits of
the regular storm periods.
About the tenth and eleventh of June
every year our globe passes what may
be called north pole contact with the
solar equator. As a result of this pc
culiar relation of Earth and Sun, the
earth becomes greatly charged with
magnetism and electricity. Thunder
storms, general and excessive sheet
lightning, volcanic disturbances and
seismic phenomena are common re-
suits of this maximum electrical excl
tation. Such disturbances will reach
a maximum about the tenth and elev-
enth and continue in marked force and
frequency until near the end of the
month.
A reactionary storm period will be
central on the twelfth and thirteenth
with the moon at, new and extreme
north declination on the thirteenth.
The disturbances Immediately proceed
ing these dates will run over into this

afternoon Judge Beatty signed an or

J. H. Trerise and Alfred Frank from
the contempt proceedings instituted

ton Company and argued at Helena be-
fore the Idaho Judge when he was sit

of the Rarus and Johnstown claims
that were thought to lead into the
Michael Dewitt, which was under in
junction.
Mr.. Heinze was fined $4,000 and each
of the other defendants was fined $500.
Collection of the fine was held in abey-
ance, with instructions that if the in

Congressman of the Third
Stands So High in Favor
of Administration He Is
Mentioned for Cabinet
TIME TO RECOGNIZE
THE GOLDEN STATE
Suggestion That Perkins
Should Close Public Career
as Naval Secretary Not APP
plauded at White House

Trustworthy information comes from
Washington, D. c., to the effect that
a place jim the Cabinet will be rendered
to Representative Victor H. Metcalf
in the event of Republican success in
the Presidential election next Novem-
Der. In a recent conversation with
prominent Californian the President
expressed the hope that the leading
men of the State would recommend
some eminent and available Republi-
can for a place in the Cabinet The
impression was distinctly conveyed
that man of the Metcalf type would
be acceptable. There is sure to be un-
der President Roosevelt's second ad-
ministration new man for Secretary
of the Navy, as Mr.. Moody cannot
much longer afford TO neglect impor-
tant business affairs TO serve the
country. 1t is said also that the official
duties devolving upon the Postmaster
General have so impaired the health
of Mr.. Payne that his retirement from
the Cabinet is only a. question of time.
A suggestion that Senator Perkins
career as sailor boy, State Senator,
Governor of California and United
States Senator might be brought TO a
glorious finish as Secretary of the Navy
did not evoke much applause at the
White House. Commentator of Vic
tor H. Metcalfs public service and
special ability was happily received.
There is not the slightest doubt as
to Mr.. Metcalf's high standing in the
estimation of the President 1t is
known to several men that the Presi-
dent would cordially welcome .unani-
nous request from leading Republicans
of the PACIFIC Coast for Mr. Metcalf's
promotion to Cabinet honors.
John F. Swift would have been APP
pointed to the Cabinet under the Har-
rison administration if the leading Re
publicans of California and Oregon
could have been brought into line il
.his behalf. The active men of the
party on this coast deemed it expedient
or right to commend NJ NJ. Estee for
the high place. but President Harrison
was not able To concur in their judg
mert The President. one evening after
dinner. at the White House, told Mr..
Swift in so many words that he de-
sired. TO recognize the claims of Cali
fornia and would welcome Swift in
dorsement by the Legislature of the
State. The Legislature subsequently
Endorsed Mr.. Estee and the President
promptly named Nj. Swift for United
States Minister to Japan. This was in
fulfillment of a promise made To the
! latter that if the California Legislature
did not indorse him for the Cabinet he
would be named for the. mission to the
Orient.

BURTON HOPES
FOR NEW TRIAL
Counsel for the Convicted
Senator Are Still Working
on Bill of Exceptions

ST. LOUIS, March 31.-The bill of
exceptions to be filed by the counsel
for United States Senator Joseph r.
Burton of Kansas, who was last Mon
day convicted in the United States
District Court of having received COM
pensation for using his influence be-
fore the Postoffice Department in be-
half of the Rialto Grain and Securi-
ties Company of st. Louis. has not
been completed. Until it is completed
and submitted to the Government for
inspection and perusal, sentence will
not be passed upon Senator Burton. 1t
is considered probable that the bill will
be submitted to United States District
Attorney Dyer tomorrow.
Colonel Dyer said to-day:
Il do not want to rush this matter.
will carefully go through the bill OF
exceptions and it will probably take
me until Monday, for / understand the
document will be very voluminous."
In the light of the disposition of Sem
ator Burton to waive his Senatorial
preregatiees, which render him immune
from arrest during the session of Con-
gress, ii is said that no time will be
lost in taking the case before the high
er court on appeal.
