FRENCH ON RIFF
| FRONT RETREAT
Spain to Reward France
for Campaign; Cruel
ty Charges Made

FEZ, French Morocco. May 25.-The
French troops opposing Abd-El- Krim' s
invading Riffian tribesmen, have been
withdrawn from their positions north
Of the Ouergha river, establishing their
lines behind the protection of that
stream.
The plan of the French command is to
establish continuous front, without
breaks in the line, thus guarding against
infiltrations of enemy tribesmen.
LONDON, May 25.-The Tangier cor
respondent of the Westminster Gazette
says he learns that France has been
promised an important interest in the
Alhucemas mines in return for coopera-
tion with Spain against the Riffian re-
bells.
LONDON, May 25.-Lady Drummond
Hay, correspondent at Tangier of the
Daily Express, makes grave charges
against the Spaniards in a dispatch,
namely. violation Of all conventions and
treaties affecting the Tangier neutral
zone, the shooting and bombing Of
peasants, raiding, looting and burning
of villages and driving people into Tan
gier, which she says is already over
crowded with starving and diseased re-
fugees.
The correspondent adds that matters
have become so serious that even the
Spanish representative at Tangier has
been obliged to take notice of the pro-
tests while the British and French au-
thorities are taking up the questions.
The French withdrawal to new con-
solidRted position includes the aban-
donment of the five advanced block
houses which were recently surrounded
by the enemy tribesmen. The French
military authorities said it was appar-
ent the Riffians would continue to sur
round these posts almost at will and
therefore force the French to make fire.
quent relief expenditions. 1t was de-
dided the best strategy would be to
abandon them and leave the entire
French force available for general
maneuvers.
The new position shortens the length
of the front, affording the protection of
the river against raiding parties of Riff
fans. The French artillery commands
all points where the river can be cross
| ed in force.

Mr.. Farnum was employed in the
Cooke City district in 1886 and 1886
when Cooke was a boom mining camp.
He has a vivid recollection of Cookies
boom days, and ne will add much to
the interest in the picnic.
Mr.. Shaw met Mr.. Farnum while
in st. Paul recently, and he says Mr..
Farnum is eager to again visit Cooke

OUR WEATHER BUREAU
Government Observations and Eos.
ter's Predictions

During the past winter we have OBJ
served the growth in popularity of a
weather predictor in Missouri named
w. T. Foster. Others in this vicinity
have done likewise. Uncle Billy Rea
has repeatedly called our attention to
predictions made by Mr.. Foster that
have been verified. Ernest Schu-
macher has also observed the skill Of
this weather prognosticator and Of
how he has successfully predicted
storms during the winter.
There are two systems of weather
forecasts before the people, one used
jby the weather bureau at Washing
ton at an expense of about 100000
a year, and the other known as cleo
tro-planetary m~eteorology, by the
principles of which long-range wealth
er forecasts are made.
A practical and reliable weather
service is of great value. The only
question is how to get it.
The weather bureau sticks obsti-
nately to old theories whose useless
ness has been demonstrated. Foster
seems to be doing very much better
and to encourage him and to estsb-
lish if possible a reliable weather
service for this section we have ar
ranged not only for his regular week
ly forecasts but for his local fore
casts also. We are aware that to
forecast the weather of a circum-
scribed locality is no easy task to
perform successfully. Our environ
ment is such that electrical and other
conditions must be made a special
study. We believe if Mr.. Foster had
charge of the government weather
l~service in Montana for three months
he would predict every storm of con-
sequence and every cold wave that
would visit this valley. Not having
lit, we will help him with the lOca.

R0TARIANS HAVE
MUSICAL PROGRAM
AT SUPPER SESSION

1t was not exactly a battle of
music" for the two musicians and
their pionos were in absolute SYM
/ phony and harmony, but the enter
tainment feature at the Rotary Club
session Friday evening in the ban
quet room at the Augusta House was
certainly unique and highly enjoy
able, not only to the large attend
ance of Rotarians and their guests,
but also to the regular patrons of
the hotel in the main dining room
and in fact throughout the Hobbies
and corridors of the big house.
The program was under the al
ways efficient direction of J. Francis
MacNichol, and he presented two
members of the club. who are both
more than ordinary musicians. They
were Harrison Lyseth and Willard
Purinton, and this pair through the
medium of two upright pianos pro-
ceeded to present a half hour pro-
gram of classical and modern num-
bers which held the big audience in
rapt attention, with veritable salvos
OF applause following each selection.
Group singing of the Rotary IA
vorite sons was another feature of
the luncheon meeting of last even
ing, and the master, Director Mac
Ntchol, himself conceded that never
In his long service with the baton
had his big chorus responded in
such wonderful tonal qualities and
shading as last evening.
1t was announced by President
Everett V. Perkins that the regular
meeting of next Friday evening will
be set over until Monday evening.
the 21St., when Commander Donald
B. Macmillan will be the special
guest and speaker. On that evening
also the RotarianS will have a
Christmas tree observance with n
real Santa Claus, and gifts for all
present.
Willis e. Swift, a past president
OF the club, spoke briefly on the
present move on the part of a group
or progressive business men for re-
viving the Augusta Chamber of
Commerce. He declared that it was
for the best interests of the city that
reorganization be effected and moved
endorsement of the project by the
Rotary Club. The motion was I'M
animously carried in the affirmative
with the Rotarians pledging them
selves as individuals to do every
thing to further the plans and pro-
grem Of the Chamber.
The eighth Rotary District of
which. the Augusta Rotary Club is
component has entered into an at
tendance contest with the eleventh
district, with the individual clubs
each being assigned opponents. The
Cedar Rapids, Iowa Club will COM
pete with the Augusta organization,
and the frequent exchange of re-
ports will be watched with keen in
terest by the members.
An invitation from the James
Fitzgerald post, American Legion
to the Rotarians to join with the
Legionaires in a meeting to be held
at Legion hall next Monday even
ing with Kenneth C.lM. Stills, presi-
dent of Bowdoin College as the
speaker, was accepted. The men,
bers Of the Augusta Kiwanis Club
have acted favorably on a similar
invitation, and there is every indi-
cation that there is every indication
that there will be most represen-
tative attendance of the members of
the three service organizations to
hear PRECEDENT Stills, whose address
will be on Education, The Road to
World Peace"
