Year 1907, mo Summer.

~WAsHINGToN, June 1.-THE weather
man of 1857 appears to have known more
about the summer of 1907 than the weather
man of 1907 knew a month ago. Accord
ing to an old almanac unearthed in the ar
chives of the Treasury Department today,
the predictions for this summer turned out
to be just what is being experienced. In
the weather forecasts the words "no sum-
mer'' appear opposite the date 1907.
Gen. John NJ. Wilson said today that
this was not the first summer he had known
snow in June, for he had kept weather
calendar for so years, and in looking back
over the June weather during these years
he found that he had recorded snow on
June 10, 1851.

JUNE 13.-We have been having quite cool
and wet weather. Wheat, rye, oats and barley
seem to be promising well, but corn, potatoes
and grass seem to be making slow progress.
Garden vegetables are quite late too.
Things won't grow right this spring it seems.
Cherries and most all kinds of fruit are going
to be scarce here. Our public roads are quite
muddy and those who have hanling to do find
it hard task. The roads have been fresh
worked and the mud is deep.
Many here are almost lad uP, with the
grip, spring grip, we suppose. We hope it
wont be so severe as the winter grip was for
some are not over that yet. Worm seed sea-
son is here again, and the planters have been
setting out plants. Many acres will be planted
here again this year. -,
Our pastor, Rev. E. o. Ewing, is well
liked, and large congregations gather on
preaching days at Zion chapel to hear him.

JOE ARTHUR ISN'T A
 CRIMINAL

Joe Arthur, in custody of Deputy Sheriff Voris, will be brought back to Globe today to answer charge of em. bezziement.
 Gambling led to his downfall.
 Whisky prompted his flight.
 Joe Arthur ism t a criminal--in the way that criminals are measured-by any means. He s big hearted, whole. souled fellow, and until about week ago was one of the most popular bar. bers in Globe.
 He's more than that, however. He is the husband of loving, con. fiding, trusting, faithful wife and the father of two little girls, beautiful in the purity of their innocence; and with their golden curls sweeping their little shoulders like rays of crystal sunshine they draw from the heart admiration that is only showered on the angelic.
 Last Monday night these little tots stood with their anxious mother at the door waiting and watching the return of papa. Later, with tear bedimmed eyes, they were carefully tucked away in tiny bed by mother who contin- ued the Vigil far into the night, and then by the exhaustion of anxiety fell to restless sleep as gray dawn streaked the eastern skies.
 Imagine the real awakening as the mother arose with swollen eyes and heavy head and stood by the trundle bed, gazing into the faces of her treas ured ones, oblivious to the fact that their papa had been
 Branded criminal
 A fugitive from justice.
 Joe Arthur isn t a criminal. Let us repeat that. No man with home, a wife and children such as he possesses can have black heart. Incapacitated -deranged-by strong drink, he gam bled away money that was intrusted to his keeping. He didn't intend to steal it; but when it was gone and sobriety was restored, he realized his predicament--his guilt. The bangs of conscience made coward of him, and
 He fed
 There are dozen business men on Broad street who would have made good the shortage had Arthur revealed his condition. The real criminal can brazenly unfold his wrongdoings. But when man ism t criminal it takes courage to make confession. And
 Cowardice--
 Not crime, was the undoing of Joe Arthur, and it was for lack of courage that he brought disgrace to himself, shame to his wife and tears to moisten the cheeks of lisping babyhood.

WORLDS GAME OF BLUFF

There is growing conviction that as the United States faces Europe with a navy the equal of any power except England, it must face the Orient with navy the equal of any nation in the east. In that way safety lies and peace.
 Nations have formerly fought for re- ligion. The line of conflict was that which separated Christianity from heathendom. They have always fought for mere land, lust and loot. But in these days commerce is the only menace to the worlds peace. It is not unlike the struggle of dogs over a bone or of pack of wolves over their victim, mostly growl, but with plenty of fight ing blood back of it.
 To the dominating great powers re. cent years have added the United States and now Japan. England, Germany,

NO FOOTBALL FOR JOHN L.
Says He'd Rather Take His Chance ir
 Railroad Accident

John l.. Sullivan has the following to say about football:
 "Some rah rah boys--pretty. good sports at that--who were on the way east to resume spending pas coin in college, met up with me on train and after trying to get me to smoke a cigarette and not pulling the trick of they began to argue that I had foot ball sized up wrong They d read some, where that I was opposed to football.
 !" I'm not opposed to anything, says l, as long as it s on the level, but what l don't fall for is why a long. haired game of football is O. K. d by the deaeons, while a short-haired game like boxing starts the deaeons praying. They're both slugging games, only in boxing there's no foul hitting, while in football kicking in the clinches and every other old thing is allowed. What s the answerP
 "The rah rah boys didn t have any answer except to say that what the game of football required was men like me to tram players so that slug ging and kicking would be done ac- eording to some kind of rules.
 l" Not on your life. I won't mix up in football business, I told them. Tt s too rough. I'm willing to fight like a white man, but when you try to pull me into riot where everything from gouging to breaking backs goes, you can bet your life I'd rather take my chance in railroad accident or in something where there look-in.'
 "That was good enoufh to hold them until the train got to Chicago"

The Law and the Saloon

| The great body of citizens who op-
 pose prohibition favor such strict con-
 trol of the traffic as will drive criminals out of it, compel closer regard of the
 laws protecting miners and females, and
 make drinking saloon a drinking sa.
 loon only, and not loafing place, con cert hall, gambling den or place of as- signation. It is impossible to draw any lines between Germans and Americans, or between German-Americans and any other sort of Americans, on these points. Decent citizens, native and foreign born, are getting together for such a regulation as will make the liquor traf-
 fife as little offensive here as it is in Germany. Thousands of intelligent German Americans, who can see that in the present temper of the country the liquor traffic must either be mended or ended, are going to make themselves a part of movement which will free the traffic of evils and danger, and give it better standing, as a means of put ting an end to the eternal threat of universal prohibition, either by statute or the use of the taxing power. This movement may not suit the purposes or interests of saloon politicians, who have long used the fear of prohibition as a menas to serve their ends. But II is coming. 1t is here now. ''--St. Lotus Globe-D Democrat.
 This is the spirit of the anti-prohi- bition press generally of the west and south. It is the recognition of the pro- hibition wave that is passing over the country and that is growing in volume and density. In Georgia it has already destroyed important industries by mak- ing the manufacture as well as the sale of spirituous or malt liquors unlawful In Mississippi, Alabama and the Caro- linas the licensed saloon has been driv- en out of all but a few counties, and in Tennessee it is confined almost ex- clusively to the larger cities. In Ken lucky only a few counties remain "wet,' and the great liquor distilling and brewery interests are seriously threatened by state prohibition stat ute that would wipe them out of ex- istence.
 The Louisville Courier.J Journal, in lengthy, double-leaded editorials, is dealing with the situation as something serious and is appealing to the liquor interests in their own interest and be- half to take the only reasonable and proper course to stem the tide of pro- hibition. As between the wideopen town and the dramatically sealed town the Courier-Journalu has no hesitation in saying that it would prefer the latter, ! though it desires neither. It would rather have regulation, respect for per sonal rights and such mutual conces- sions as would be for the best interest of all.
 It is a condition, not theory, that eonfronts the liquor dealers, and the wise among them recognize it. The dive, the disorderly and the lawbreak- ing saloons must go, and the Liquor Dealers association must do it's part in aiding to weed them out.-Louisville Courier-Journal.
