One of the puzzles of nature is the
fact that many springs show an in
creased flow of water several hours
before a coming rain begins to fall
Various explanations have been at
tempted. the most plausible being
that the weather before a storm is
often of the kind which checks loss
of moisture from the ground by
evaporation and hence leaves more
to feed the springs.

To The City Council and Citizens of
Cairo:
The city of Cairo is now in the
midst OF the most c-itical period
through which il has passed since
its organization as a city, and in
jmy opinion the most careful man
agement on the part OF its Mayor
and council will be absolutely neces-
sary TO its future success as city.
In view OF the fact that it is my
desire to avoid a campaign which
might cause dissensions among the
business interests and people gene--
ally. to the detriment of the city's
we fare. | have concluded to decline
to be candidate for mayor at the
Municipal election to be held or
April 18th, and hereby notify the
Board OF Election Commissioners not
to place my name on the official bal
| lot that II 10 be issued at this time.
had concluded to refuse TO be-
leone candidate for the nominal

| ton. held on the 18th inst, as my
attorneys had adv lsed me that q
primary could not be legally held at
this time under the law providing
for the Commission Form of Munici-
pal Government, but large number
OF the most prominent business men
Iof the city assembled and agreed in
writing to place my name upon thf
ballot. knowing that if the Commits
sion Form OF Municipal Government
should be attacked and defeated in
this election. would still be the
legal mayor under the laws OF tbs
state. Under these circumstances
allowed my name TO be used at ths
Urinary election. My legal ad-
Users are still of the opinion thar

lany person elected at this time can
not legally hold the office.

The members of the board, 1T Is
stated, have disclosed a plan of buy

the -coaling- station permanent. This
cannot be done for 1t least two years
because the boards expected funds
were somewhat curtffled on the last
day of the Legislature and It's wharf

will use up most of the available
money. 1t is felt, however, that an Is
year lease of the site will be long
enough to allow the clrrying-out OF
the plan. No exact estimate CT the
amount of coal that can be stored on
the site has been made. but it is said
that there is. space enough for at least
$4,000 tons and possibly double that
amount.
: If the experiment works out success
fully. the next legislature may be
asked to appropriate money for the
board to buy the site from the Bishop

SULTAN OF SIJLU
MAY VISIT HERE

The Sultan Of SuIu, a Spectacular
monarch Of the little group of islands
that dot piratical infested sea be-
tween the island of BoTneo and the
southern Philippines, is believed to
Persia that is to draw to berth
at Alakea wharf shortly. His
excellency, who presides over several
hundred thousand Moros in the Sulu
archipelago. is declared will pay an
official visit to the great white father
at Washington.
Since his return from the United
States, where he enjoyed himself inn
nensely, he has had continual hank
er.ing for return 10 the fleshpots SO
that when the Democratic leaders in
congress expressed desire to have
him proceed TO the nations capital,
he expressed his pleasure at the op-
portunity to indulge himself again.
ii is believed that the new admin
istlation is arranging TO secure first
hand knowledge of Mindanao in this
way. No official announcement has
been made locally of the voyage of the
southern potentate.
The Sultan or Sulu was planning a
few months ago to make world tour
and negotiations were initiated To-
charter a steamer for the cruise.
His royal highness contemplated Wis
ing all the big European capitals and
expected TO travel about the United
States. but this has now been aba--
dcned. A correspondent of one Of
the leading London Dailies was en-
gagged in arranging the trip and i'll
was expected that a Nippon Yusen
Kaisha steamer would be secured to
convey the royal party on their ex-
tended sojourn. The steamer was to
have been refitted for, the occasion
and special royal suite was to have
been prepared for the accommodation
OF his highness. No expense was to
have been spared to make his appear
ance impressive as he wendell his
way around the world.
