Washington, Jan. 1.-Prof. Willis

Weather Bureau and President Of the
NationM Geographic Society, has not
been asked 10 verify this story, but 1t
is told on excellent authority. People
are afraid to get Prof Moore excited.
Some one stirred him up one night
last March, with the result that he got
all the weather wires crossed and broke
up President Taft's Inauguration with
The worst weather since Noah's flood
Prof Moore was doing his Christmas
shopping one evening last week. He
stopped at a bookstall in one of the
big department stores.
"have you any books about the
North Pole?n he asked Of = sweet
young thing who smiled at him from
under al altitudinous pompadour.

Berryville, January AFTER = two-
year trial Of no saloons, Berryvlile
again went "dry" by 70 majority yes
terday in local option election held
In Battletewn magcsterial district.
The "dryn majority was Increased
votes out Of total Of 81 votes ever
the result two years ago The vote wss
1852: for the "drys" and 10 for the
"wets." Two years ago the "dry"
majority was IS.
One cfthe noticeable features Of the
election was the way the farmers lined
up for the "drys.n The farmers, who
are dependent mere .er less upon ne \
gro labor to till their land, almost to a
man voted agains return Of tho sa-
looms.
This Is due to the fact that before the
saloon was banished difficulty wasex-
perienced in getting sufficient farm la
Dor. Negroes would enter town with
teams, and after delivering the pro-
duce they brought with them, they
would spend the rest Of the day IN the
saloon. Since the saloons have been
banished farmers have not been wro-
ried with trouble Of this kind.
The result indicates that the farm
ers OF Virginia who employ negro Ia
Dor are against the saloon.
While the tax rate in the town Of
Berryville has been slightly increased
since the iowa voted out saloons, in
1907, the taxpaying public and busl-
ness men generally have been satisfied
with the change, and many Of them
say their receipts show substantial in
creases.
For aiquarter ola century Berry-
willie has been regarded az strsng-
hold Of the saloon in the flower valley
Of Virginia. No serious attempt was
made to gust the saloon uAtil two
years ago, when the "drysn won their
first victor in the town.
