WEATHER PROPHETS.

Warnings of cold weather to come are still being sent in. We do not re- fer to the weather bureau and it's pre- dictions. They have habit of not al- ways turning out as expected or an nounced. The weather man Is not to blame, for he can only predict what is 10 happen if something else doesn' t butt in and ball things up. For exam pie, a cold wave may start from Ore gon or some other far Northwestern country and the local weather man would give out warnings that it might be expected here in day or two, but q warm wave from the Southwest may strike the cold one in the flank and kite If over Into New Jersey. Thus the prediction of extreme cold here would not be verified and no one to blame. What we set out to speak of was the predictions given out by animals. For example a contemporary had this spe- cial from Poughkeepsie. N. Y, some days ago;

JAJAN,s MILITARY SPIRIT.

War Talk Emnnates from OvercOnceit-
 ed Young Officers.
 Boston Transcript.
 Veteran officers in Japan, as else where, are slow in advocating a bel ligerent policy, but the younger men. whose professional pride has been in- tensiied by a recent great victory, and whose egotisnl has been inflamed. talk much about "Japan's mission" and men that Japan's invin1bility has been proved beyond question. They have visions of world-shaking campaigns ip which the banner of Ja an shall be borne from victor to victory. In this respect they are not very different from the young officers of other nations just emerged from a successful cam ors who surround the throne, deem them worth watching warily. Today the San Francisco controversy has cen- tered the thoughts of these sword ham dlers on the United States but the slightest friction with another country might divert to the latter their amhi- tion for conquest. They believe that there are worlds for Japan to conquer, and Tn a martial land 1t is not difficult for them to gather popular sympathy
 There arc Americans, sincere we'll wishers of Japan, who have studied its sentiment on the ground, who believe that if she should enter upon policy of belligerent conceit her misfortune would he due to this class that would make war with light hearts. These same well -wishCrs deprecate in our Government anything savoring of eX- cessive conn lacency to Japan lest 1t should stimulate Japanese mtlitarism to the conviction that 1t has only to demand to dominate.

A PANIC
IN CHATTANOOGA

CHATTANOOGA, TENN, October e..
probably 20.O0s persons were in dan
ger OF injuries this evening at the Gem
trail Station when President Roose
yelt's special train rolled into the train
shed at $40 o'clock. 1t was a, surging
mass OF humanity that could not be
controlled.
The demonstration was so great that
1t was impossible for the President to
speak. He made several attempts. but
nnaIly des;sted. He pleaded with the
crowd to have care for the women
and children. He knew there was dan
ser of a panic and he did all he could
to avert catastrophe. The cheering
was almost incessant, and In the wild
rush towards the Presidents car wo-
men were carried of their feet. and
men had to fight to keep themselves
from being trampled.
The President tried yalnly to speak.
The few sentences he had uttered had
consumed nineteen minutes. and at 6:5b
the train was signaled ahead. AS 1t

ARCHITECT HEARD;
PLANS DISCUSSED
Hobson Raised Objection and Mr..
Ferrandini Was Asked
TO Retire.

Seven architects explained the char
acter and cost of an armory for the
Richmond Light Infantry Blues at q
meeting OF the Committee on Grounds
and Buildings last night, and the en-
pected sensation came up rather un-
eNpectedly.
I When the committee was prepared to
hear the architects all of them We're
requested to retire. so that no bidder
would be put at an unfair advantage.
About the close, however. Mr.. Graham
B. Hobson announced that one archi-
tect had remained in the room all the
time, and had heard the plans and
specifications discussed. Mr.. Hobson
had reference to Mr.. +. F'errandini.
but the latter got up and stated that
he was not an architect but only made
the model for Mr.. Howell. There was
a rather spirited discussion, at the end
OF which Mr.. Ferrandin was request
ed TO leave. He said, however, that
he represented nobody and was only
there as citizen.
No action was taken, the committee
decided to refer the bids to special
committee to be examined by the
Building Inspector, the City Engineer,
Major Bowles and an expert.
The architects figured that the arm
DRY would cost anywhere from sS2,-
GEO to $4,000.
