FRANK Z. HOWE. Edl.er s.1 ~
Wednesday, February 2, 1916.

Some of the weather prophets are
beginning to fear that 1916 is to be
repetition OF 1916 which was famous
for warm winter and cold summer.
A writer in the Springfield Republican
says the thaw which has removed
nearly all Of the snow, even in the
country districts, recalls the year
1916. just 100 years ago. That year
is known as "the year without sum-
mer." In January Of 1916 the wealth
er was SO mild that fires were allowed
to go out except for cooking pur-
poses In April came snowstorms,
frost and ice, and in June vegetation
was almost wiped out by the cold
weather and frequent frosts. On June
II, 1916. there was miniature bliz-
Yard. Snow and frost also came in
July, but by September the weather
conditions were about normal.
The Du Pont powder folks say that
they have carefully investigated the
numerous accidents at their plants
and find that they came from causes
incident to the manufacture of explos-
ives and were not due to spies or
enemy agents. The Bethlehem steel
company traces its recent fires TO
natural causes. These two plants are
the ones most advertised as victims
of alleged conspiracy. There is no
question but that few men of dis
torted mind, like the maniac who
shot j. p. Morgan, have been and are
at large in this country. II is also
probable that among the more intense
of the German sympathizers there has
been some unity OF effort in attempts
mostly futile-to help the Germans
and hurt the allies. More and more
IT becomes evident, heweyers that the
biggest section of the German spy
and secret agent horror is in the
scareheads of the newspapers.

MARKET CONTINUES DULL.
City Real Estate Inactive, With Some
BuiIdino Lots Moving.

A continued slow movement of build
ing lots. mostly in outside additions,
was the only property that moved IN
any volume worth mentioning in the
week ending Monday. The whole treno
OF the city real estate market was
sluggish, characteristic Of midsummer
and hot weather.
There was little doing in residence
property, and only one transaction in
high grade property. This was the
transfer to c. A Myers of the c. NJ.
Coleman residence at 1912 West Main
street in a transaction by which Myers
transferred to Coleman his residence
property at Jerome and Fourth streets
a few days earlier. a nominal corsid-
Grafton was given in the deed as the
price for the Coleman property but the
revenue stamps attached TO the deed
and the incumbrance indicate a total
consideration Of $4,000.
The volume of business for the week
