NATURE WARNS OF
STORMS APPROACH
Birds and Animals Finer Sen.
s'bl'lties Enable Them to
Forecast Changes.

In the recent issue of Farm and Fire
side. D. 8. Burch, associate editor Of
that publication, writes as follows on
signs Of Approaching Storm
Here are a few weather observa-
ttons which have proven so true that
persons not having better system Of
personal weather forecasting may find
them helpful. A rainstorm can be ex-
pected II dry springs start to flow with
no apparent cause. IL horses tracks on
dry road show up wet or damp, IL lit
tie whirlwinds of dust occur frequently.
II chickens begin to oil up IL flies COL
iect on the outside of screens, IL birds
become restless and noisy.
The first two indications are due
enfefly to the difference between the
oarometric pressure In the ground and
above ground. and partly to the amount
OF moisture in the air. When the ba-
rometer falls. which Is nearly always a
s1Sn OF rain, 1t means that the air pres
sure Is lighter. This brings more water
IN the soil to the surface. Little whtrl-
winds OF dust are also commonly mo-
sure.
THE next indication is a proyision NJ
nature that gives birds time to spread
oil from the glands above the tail over
their feathers, thus keeping the hodv
dry in wet weather The last two are
examples Of those fine sensibilties with
which birds and insects are favored
more than human beings.
The amount OF moisturs in the air
(the humidity Is also related to the ap-
proach of storms When moisture COL
lects in large beads on the outside Of
cold surfaces the humidity Is great and
rain may be expected

HEALTH OF PRINCESS
RESTORED BY RUSE
Wooden Sentry Used to Restore
the Spirits of Aged Member
of Royalty.

In 1soo Ferdinand w was driven from
the throne of Naples. All the MEM
bers of his family. except an aged half
sister. fled to Sicily.
The victorious French, who had driven
Ferdinand from; the throne. treated
the old lady with every Consideration
The new King. Joseph Bonaparte I.r,
her property and her income practicaTiv
intact. But he did order that the .entrv
who always stood before the door -,
the princess and had saluted when she
passed should be removed. And on thi.
point, In spite of the princess plea he
remained firm. The Bourbon ceased 70
reign. he said. and no royal honors
could properly be accorded to a member
Of the family.
The loss Of this mark of respec,
wounded the princess more deeply than
many more serious losses had done.
For the first time she felt herself an
outcast, an exile in her own land. She
grieved 80 steadily that her strength be-
gan to fail
Finally the loyal servants, who had
stayed with their mistress, decided tn
resort to subterfuge In order to re-
store the old 1ady's spirits. Accord
ingly, they fashioned a great wooden
soldier. Of dignified and martial an
pearance: on this dummy they painted
the ga uniform Of the NeapoIitan
grenadier. They set the figure in the
sentry box by the gate of the princess'
residence and waited for their mistress
to drive out.
They counted on the nearsightednes.
OF the princess and on the fact that
she always passed through the gate in
her carriage, to make the ruse success
full. And when at last the Carriage did
pass they saw by the glad flush that
came to the princess face that she had
not detected the deception.
From that time the princess revived.
The sentry never left his post and the
princess never discovered the ruse BY
which her loyal servants had restored
her spirits and her health But occa-
sionally she did complain that under
the nn-- regime soldiers did not pre-
sent arms, as they had done in the
days when her brother was King.

BOARD PUTS BAN
ON BRIGHT LIGHTS
Motion Picture Theaters Are
Likely to Be Hit by Ruling of
Commission.

Brilliant lights are no longer to be
permitted on the residential streets Of
Washington. The Commissioners. on
recommendation of w. C. Allen, Elec-
trical Engineer. today adopted a regu
lation prohibiting the display on any
except business streets of private lamps
or clusters Of lamps exceeding 100
Candlepower.
The establishment OF such lamps in
front OF stores on streets not denom-
mated as business thoroughfares. re-
Gently has resulted in n number of COM
plants from residents. The regulation
will become effective in thirty days
The board adopted also a regulation
requiring all private lamps or clusters
of lamps existing on or over public
snace to be suspended at a height OF
fifteen feet and inclosed in opalescent
glass. This Is to prevent a glare in
the eyes of passers-by.
The District il was stated. sacrifices
a part Of the illuminating power Of it's
lamps for this reason, and 1t is believed
the same rule should apply to the own
ers of pTiVat" lights. The regulation
will become effective January l. and
probably will ncCesSitate the rearranCe-
ment Of lights in front of severa! NOV
ing picture theaters and other places OF
amusement.
Engineer Allen in his annual report to
the Commissioners today, that q new
suit will be filed against the Philadel-
phia. Baltimore and Washington Rail-
way Company to recover IS O93. 1S for the
maintenance Of electric lights along its
right of way. The action will be filed
under a section of the District apprOnri-
alton bin for the fiscal year ended

after all railroads, other than street
railroads, shall pay to the District Of

A Ringing Resolution

Iowa and Rock counties held non
partisan conventions a few DAYS ago
to protest against the rapidly grow
ing state taxes and extravaganza.
In the Rock county meeting, which
was held in GAINESVILLE, the follow
ing resolution was adopted:
Raolved that it is the duty of every
patriotic citizen. regardless of past
party affiliations, to unite in restoring
true democracy in Wisconsin, to siren
uOusly oppose the establishment of
any more commissions, to abolish
those commissions which experience
has shown are useless, to limit and re
strain the powers of the remaining
commissions, that they shall be the
servant of the people and not their
masters, to prevent waste and extra
Sagance in the administration of pub
lie affairs and to rid the people of all
unnecessary officers and expenses.
