Prophets Pessimistic.

Some of the oldtimers along the
waterfront are shaking their heads
over the weather. They do not see
where we are going to get much rain,
perhaps none at all until February
This is indeed a dreary outlook, but
these expert weather prophets back
their opinion by precedent, and it
looks as though they were only too
correct.
In speaking on the subject, Captain
Campbell, who is as well qualified as
anybody to prophesy about the wealth
er, said: 81 looked for real rain
two or three weeks ago. Usually we
have a good precipitation in Novem-
Der, often at the beginning of the
month, and since we have had no
southerly winds, indications appear to
me to point to a continuation of the
dry spell The supposedly southerly
weather of last week was only fcti-
tious. When the trade winds veer a
tritie to the north, the shape of this
island causes a pocket to form, which
makes a back draught round this end
of the island, and an apparent south
erly wind blows. A few miles away
from land YOU would find the regular
trades blowing. When the true south
erly wind comes up then you will no.
tice n sudden change in the atmo-
sphere. The barometer falls and the
air grows heavy with moisture. Heavy,
that is, from our point of view, but
light so far as the column of the at
mosphere is concerned The clouds, in
stead of being blown up against the
weather side of the mountains and
breaking on this side, come from all
parts Of the horizon, and then we get
real good drenching. I am afraid
that we are not going to have any
rain to speak of until we get some of
that SoutheTly weather and a low ba-
rOmeter, and that may not be for some
time.
Allny Writes Poem.
Admiral Almy, the settler of dis
putes and quieter of troubles, has
again broken into rhyme The follow
ing communication from him was re-
eeived yesterday:
Dear Sir
When I am asked for news
make a point not to refuse,
So kindly do not think me giddy
To write about friend Joseph Liddy.
Quite gloomy he has been of late,
He seems to fear some how ring fate
He does not laugh, he does not jest,
Although to smile he does his best.
Now here is what he said to me;
/ quote him very carefully:
: m going away from this here place
And never more you'll see my face;
No more a union worker /,
For, if l stayed, I think I'd die"
And then a curious wink he wunk.
: m going away to be a monk. -
1 thought this news, so send the same.
wonder how to rhyme my name;
How s this? The air is very balmy,
And I am, yours,
COMMISSIONER ALMY.
