THE WEATHER.

Last Sunday was good day for
storms In Kansas. Several parts Ct
the state were visited by storms Of
more or less violence. Medicine Lodge
seemed TO get the worst of the deal.
She claims to have experienced three
storms during the night, all coming
from the northwest. Considerable
property was destroyed and several
people hurt. The country around was
thoroughly drenched and the crops
suffered from hail.
We have been having frequent and
copious rains in this locality, bat no
damage from wind or hail. The farm
ers seem to think we have had more
than a plenty of rain, especially those
WIN are trying to cut wheat. Tho. e
farmers who took the advice of The
Times month ago and prepared for
wet weather by getting their corn
clean and in thorough shape are kick
ing up their heels and rejoicing.
There are some who failed to heed the
warning and, as consequence they
see the weeds and grass encroaching
sadly on the rights of the corn. Moral
Take The Times and heed its warn
ings.

predictions on the weather for number Of
years say he works out his predictions on
a theory system.
DR.. Tindall unveiled the following fore
cast today:
Il predict very cold winter of 1907-190S,
the first blast of which will arrive about
November IA. The real winter will begin
about Christmas, with the mercury some-
times as low as 8 degrees or more below
zero before spring. - -,s''''

tain the prophecy charge 1t to profit and

FINES OF JAPANESE PAID.
Captain and Crew of the hippo to Be
Discharged.

The Department OF Justice has been adj
vised that money has been procured from
Japan to pay the fines OF the captain and
the crew Of the seal poaching schooner
hippo, and they will be discharged. Two
Japanese seal-poaching schooners were
brought into Unalaska, and their officers
and crew tried at Waldo. Alaska, two
months ago. Ten Of the japanese. who
were in small boats sealing within the
American three-mile limit were convicted
and sentenced to fines ranging from $500
for the captain Of the hippo to 500. Tn
der the Alaska code an unpaid fine means
day OF Imprisonment for every 81 of the
fine, so that the captain Of the hippo would
have to serve about eight months.
This leaves IN jail three members Of the
crew OF the Kaiwo, whose fines have not
been paid.
