ing most likely ON the 14th and 18th.
Vicious thunderstorms and high gales
will center about Sunday, the 14th.
If equatorial hurricanes or cyclones
should make their presence felt about
our southern coast at this time, the
storms that visit interior states a few
days later will be followed by unseas-
onably cool weather. Otherwise the
heated term will not be broken eff
fectually until after the storrns of a
subsequent period.
"Reaetionary storm conditions Will
return on and next to the 18th and
Goth. This period will be within the
brace of earth's autumnal equinox and
near the center of the Venus period,
thus increasing the probabilities of
equinoctial storms on the south waters
and along the southern coast There
is almost scientific certainty of such
storms in such parts of the earth be-
fore the end of August.
1T is well to remember that destruc
tive Venus hail storms are almost
sure to attend the storms, especially IN
the great northwestern grain regions,
during the last half of August. We DO
not know what precautionary steps
can be taken against such risitations,
but whatever may be possible or prac-
ticable should not be neglected.
Change to rising barometer and very
much cooler especially at night viii,
follow for some days the reactionary
storms centering about the 18th and
18th
The last regular storm period for
August is central on the 26th entend-
ing from the Gath to the goth. Within
this period the moon is at full on the
25th, in apogee on the 26th and ON the
celestial equator on the 2Sth. This
period is also at the center of the
Venus perturbation, and fully under
the pressure of the earth's September
equinox. We may therefore confident
iy anticipate some very marked storm
disturbances at this time. Whether
hurricanes and cyclones have or have
not come up from the equator to our
southern waters and coasts, during
previous August periods. in every prob
ability such storms will appear at this
past period These storms will touch
inland sections and counter storm
areas will be induced from northwest
ern extremes, bringing many heavy
and some dangerous storms turnout
the southern and central states
THE indications are that the general
of the last period will be
by a general high barometer,
with fierce high winds and unseason
ably cold watl,er out OF the north
west If frosts make their appearance
over the northern to middle regions
of the country during the last few days
of August our readers need not be
wholly taken by surprise.
..rThe dates upon which volcanic and
disturbances are most
likely to reach a maximum. generally
over the globe. will be the 9th to the
i 9Th and the 24tl to the 9sth of August.
We will name Thursday, the 18th and
the 25th. as central days OF
these probable seismic periods of dis
turbance."

President Norton, of the league, Will
not release Umpire Flynn, as has been
rumored about this city on account of

The published statement is as follows:
II have every confidence in Flypn's
ability, and he will continue to offici-
ate In the Iowa League" said President
Frank Norton last evening. 1t was
learned that the trouble between Man
ager Black and Flynn had been patched
up and that Black would continue to
play thereafter under Flynn's decisions.
II am very glad to say said President
Norton, chat that unpleasant incident
between Umpire Mike Flynn and some
of the Iowa League managers has been
settled, yes permanently settled, and
now hope it will be forgotten. Flynn
has received orders from me to con-

NOT A PATENT MEDICINE.
Hymoei, the Guaranteed catarrh Cur,
Prescribed by Physicians.

| No one should confound Hyomei
with patent medicines that are adver-
tised to cure catarrh. 1t is as far SUI
perior to them all as the diamond Is
more valuable than cheap glass. Their
composition is secret. but Hyomei
gives it's formula to all reputable ply
sicians.
It's base Is the valuable eucalyptus
oil. famous for its antiseptic qualities.
This is combined with aromatic and
healing gums and balsams, making a
pure liquid, which, when used in the
Hyomei pocket inhaler. fills the air
you breathe with germ killing, disease
destroying and healing powers that re-
ctore health to every part of the
throat. nose and lungs:
Is it not foolish to try and cure ca
tarrh by swallowing tablets or liquids?
The only natural way to cure this dis
ease and all other diseases of the res
piratory organs is to breathe Hyo-
mel.
This treatment has been so success
full curing 80 per cent OF all who have
used it that Hyomei is now sold by
Mcbride & VIII under an absolute
guarantee to refund the money if it
does not cure. You run no risk what
ever In buying Hyomei. If it did not
possess unusual powers to cure it could
not be sold upon this plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
81 and comprises hard rubber inhaler,
a bottle OF Hyomei and dropper. The
inhaler will last lifetime; and addi-
tional BOTTLES of Hyomei can be obtain
ed for SO cents.

HARVEST INTERPRETERS.
Farmers Too Busy in Their Fields TO
Ship Swine TO Market.

The harvest is having noticeable
effect on the shipment of hogs to the
packing house Of Britain & Co. The
farmers are too busy at the present
time to pay much attention to anything
but their grain, and as a result light
hog receipts may be expected for sew
eral days. The packers strike in Chi
cago also affects the general run Of
receipts to some extent, and especially
does 1t interfere with buyers shipments
to the Chicago market. All hogs ship
ped during the strike are billed at
owners risk, and the majority of the
shippers do not care to take the
chances.
Britain & Co. received $50 head
Wednesday from four shippers. M. A.
Ward. Of Bromley. Of Ward & Pyle, ac-
-tGnpanied to the city the finest load
he has shipped this season. Sixty
seven head averaged 2s3 pounds. Other
shippers to the city Wednesday We're
