St. Joseph, Mo., May 13.—My
last bulletin gave forecasts of the
storm wave to cross the continent
from 9th to 2,'d. and the
next will reach the Pacific coast
about June 24th, cross the west of
Rockies by close of 25th, and the
great central valleys from 20th to
28th, eastern states 29th.
The warm wave will cross the
west of liockies country about
Jane 24th, great central val!eys
26th, eastern states 28th.
Cool wave will cioss the west of
Rockies country about June 27th,
great central valleys 29th, east-
ern states July 1st.
The prediction that the weather
of May would be unusually severe
proved correct and now let us ex
pect an unusual amount of mod-
erate weather.
Probably it will be too moder-
ate. The excessive rains in the
Mississippi and Missouri valleys
suggest that the remainder of the
season will bring more dry weath-
er, wheie these rains have falleu,
.han was indicated in the forecasts
for the summer months.
The excessively hot weather in
A.pril and May also calls for cool-
er weather during the summer
months than otherwise might have
been expected.
I»e not alarmed as to destruc-
tive storms. The causes that
bring these great storms do not
now exist. Storms of less force
will occasionally occur, but condi-
tions are now favorable to quiet
weather.
Many years will have passed
before the return of the cause that
brought the devastating storms of
May 1896. These long intervals
make the cause difficult to liud
and whoever tails to look to plane
tary influences will never know
when to expect great storms.

Scientists have no conception as
to what the earth's magnetic sys-

be known before the relation of
magnetism to meteorology can be
understood. In this case a theo-

ism and meteorology must be fit-
ted together and before under-
taking to build them into a har-
monious whole a foundation must
be laid.

from the sun is no longer to be
doubted, but how and where do
they enter the earth! Magnetic
influences also come from space
and affect the earth's magnetic
system by what are called the
hoilzontal, declination and verti-
cal forces but where and how do
these forces take hold of the
earth's magnetic system and how
do they affect the weathei!
To understand these complica-
ted questions we must know more
about the earth's megnetic forces.
The first anomaly met with is
that the principal magnetic poles
are about 20 degrees—1400 miles
—from the geographic poles. To
understand the effects of this mix-
up of poles will reqniie a little
careful thought.
We will suppose that a rod is
driven into the earth half way be-
tween Winnipeg and the geograph-
ic north pole and extended
through the center of the earth. It
would come out on the opposite
side near the antarctic circle,
southwest of Australia, due south
of British India. The two ends of
that rod would represent the prin
clpal north and south magnetic
poies.
This magnetic system of the
earth revolves on its axis, which
is represented by the iron rod, and
revolves in the same direction that
the earth does—from west to east.
It will be noted that at the north
magnetic pole the magnetic whirl
is from right to left as we face the
equator and the south magnet
whirl is from left to right as we
face northward.
This magnetic whirl north and
south of the equator is the reverse
of the high barometer whirls.
South of the equator the latter is
from right to left and north of the
equator it is from left to right.
But both are high barometers.
The downpouring ether at the
north and south magnetic poles—
in fact covering the north and
south hemispheres—each consti-
tutes a high barometer because it
is a downpour.
The transient high barometer is
also a downpour, but it is the
lesser downpour and whirls the
other way and this offers an im-
portant suggestion. Downpours
that come from space outside of
our atmosphere whirls on the
northern hemisphere to the left or
contrary to the movements of the
watch hands and downpours that
belong wholly 111 our atmosphere
whirl to the right, as seen in the
cold wave or high barometer.
The downpours from space enter
the eartn only at the magnetic
poles, do not break up into small
whirls but move out from the
magnetic poles in long curves. As
the downpour strikes the lower
compact atmosphere bodies of air
ire set to whirliug in the opposite
direction and thus the high ba-
rometers or cool waves organized.
Bj this it is seen that the inj
coming ether from space is the
force that acts on the atmosphere
in the far north, bringing down
the cold, pure atmosphere and is
the cause of the transient high ba-
rometers or cold waves.
If we stand on the north mag-
netic pole the earth's magnetic
system whirls from our rigiit In
way of the front to our left mak-
ing its movement fiom west t<>
*ast. Really tin system does not
move but tlie ether moves through
he stationary system and thai
•ther movement carries the atinos
>here and weather changes east-
var.l.
The downpours are the same in
• mount at tiie .south magnetic
>oles as .it ttie nor th and therefor*
whatever may be the excess of
ether received by the earth througl
these magnetic poles goes off agai
into space over the earth's equ 1
tor.
The pure unpolarized ethei
comes to the earth with equa
force at every point while polar-
zed ether or magnetism can read
1 he earth only at its magnetn
poles and can pass again intc
space only by way of the earth's
equator.
A little care at this point will
fix the earth's system permanent
ly in the mind of the reader. The
great oceans are each covered by
a separate down pour or
rometer but these do not reach
above our atmosphere. The con-
tinents are each covered by a sep-
arate outpouring or low barometer
m summer but these do not ex-
tend above our atmosphere. The
two systems are connected. The
rising column of air over tb»
j North American continent in sum
mer goes to the north Atlantic
ocean where it comes down again
through that permanent high.
This air circulation at no time
reaches more than ten or fifteen
niles high.
All the various circulations-
which cause high and low I arome-
ers are confined entirely within
the earth's atmosphere 'except

Is What the Californians
Wear as Badges.
Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov't Report
Salt Lake, Utah, June 13.—The
California deleg ition and a part of
the 2\evada delegation to the St,
Louis convention left Ogden in a
special train over the Rio Grande
Western railway at 5:30 last eve-
ning. The train is in charge of
General Agent Sanborn of the Bur-
lington road and will go over the
Rio Grande Western, Denver and
Rio Grande and the Burlington,
reaching St. Louis on Monday
morning. A large picture of Wil-
liam McKinley a.lorns one of the
cars while another carries the
■lotto: "Protection to American
Industries."
While the Californians declare
for free silver, it was a noticeable
feature that each delegate wore a
badge of pure gold.
A prominent member of the del-
egation said a strong fight would
be made for silver and if a gold
platform was adopted the result in
California in November would be
mixed with uncertainty. There
seemed to be a feeling that George
C. Perkins of California would re-
ceive considerable strength for
second place on the ticket at St.
Louis in case they decided to go
west for a candidate.

Wants 2,000 Seats.
Logansport, Ind., June 13.-
The Hon. H. P. Sherrin, secretary
of the national democratic com-
mittee said today that there were
2,000 applications on file for seats
in the section reserved for news-
papers, while but 400 seats had
been provided. Many of the lead-
ing metropolitan papers had not
yet applied for seats ard would
undoubtedly want them. In May
he sent out notice that applica-
tions must be filled not later than
June 10. No application receiv-
ed after that date would be re-
garded.
NEW BATTLESHIP.
Uncle Remus in the City.
Joel Chandler Harris, the fa-
mons southern author and journal-
ist, is in the city. He is accom-
panied by the renowned colored
philosopher Uncle Remus, whose
quaint stories are the delight of
children throughout the United
States.
An effort wa? made to obtain
an interview with Mr. Harris.
The sable philosopher opened the
door in responce to a knock.
"Good morning Uncle Remus,
id Mr. Harris in!"
"Howdy; howdy, mawnin' sah.
No, sah, Mars Harris done gone
out; he gwine be back d'reckly,
'less he git runned obah by one

Washington, June 13.—The re
port of the board on batteries of
battleships of which Admiral
Walker is president has been
handed to the navy department.
The report shows that the board
considered with much care and in
great detail the whole subject of
battleships.
As a result of its investigation
the board recommends a slightly
different ship with a somewhat
different arrangement of battery
from any heretofore built. While
speaking very favorably of the
superimposed turret as designed
for the Kearsarge and the Ken-
tucky, the board does not recom-
mend installing more turrets! of
this description until experiments
with the two ships named Lave
demonstrated their utility.
The hull recommended for the
ship is like that of the Keartage
aad Kentucky but so modified as
to l>e similar iu many respects to
the Iowa. The main battery re
commended is composed of four
12.inch and fourteen 0-inch guns,
so arrangep as to tire two 13-inch
ind four 0-inch guns diiec;ly
ahead, two 13-inch and two 0-inch
lirectiy astern and four 13-inch
and seven 6-inch directly in broad
iile.
It is believed by the depart-
ment that the ship outlined as
ibove will be an improvement
ipon any yet built in this country.
The secretary of the navy has ap-
proved the general features of the
report of the board and directed
that the plans be taken up with-
out delay. The secretary has ai-
re idy decided upon all the pielim-
ilaries.
A Storage for Silver.
New York, .Tune 13.—The sub-
treasury in this city is to be pro-
vided with additional storage ca-
pacity for about 0,000,000 silver
loilars. An immense steel chest
is now being built for that pur-
pose and will be finished next
week. Its construction was au-
thorized by the secretary of the
treasury two or three months ago
to meet the demands for storage
room for silver which has been
accnmmulating at the treasury in
spite of shipments to other de-
positories. There are now in the
sub-treasury vaults al>out 50,000,-
O'JO silver dollars and about $7,-
000,000 of subsidiary coin.
