Hick’s WEATHER PREDICTIONS FOR
SepreMBER.—Hicke, the weather pro-
phet, makes the following predections
for Septem ber : 4
About the 2d it will turn warm in the
West, and as the wave moves eastward
it will increase in heat, culminating in
some heavy storms, and, perbaps, earth-
quake disturbances, within thirty-six
hours of the time of the new moon on
on the 8d. A sharp fall of temperature
will follow until about the 6th.
"A regular storm period is central on
the 7th. Thereis an equinox of Mercury
on the 8th, mcon’s first quarter is on the
11th, and the electrical antagonism of
sun and earth is at its maximum on and
about the same date. Disturbances of
great energy, therefore, may be expected
in the earth and atmosphere between
the 7th and 11th. The progressive pre-
sence of & very warm wave from the
West will be the harbinger of storins
which may work ruin and disaster on
sea, lake and land, if not avoided by
watchful precaution. A very cool
wave, sharp and sudden to the North,
will most likely appear behind the
storms of this period. Unsettled weath-
er with fluctuations of temperature is
apt to run beyond the reactionary storm
days, 13th and 14th, after which pleas-
ant, bright days and nights will follow
up the next storm period.
On September 18 we reach the center
ot a disturbed period which will cover
the central day of the earth’s equinox,
which dates will also be affected by the
growing Venus disturbance, - central Oc-
tober 7. Ifstormsof great severity do
not occur between the 17 and 22, me-
teorological compensations in pheno-
temperatures and earthquakes must re-
sult. Very high temperature with
storms will be natural at this time.
Look for a far-reaching cool to cold
wave at the close of these disturbances.
Remembering that we have already en-
tered the Venus perturbation at this
time, and that such pericds are always
characterized by sudden extremes of
heat and cold, we should be prepared
for very high temperature, ending in
storms, and dropping quickly to the
frost and freezing points to the north-
ward. The same will apply to reaction-
ary changes on and next to the 24th.
The prevailing autumnal equinox
blended with approaching Venus, an
unusual conjunctian of nearly all the
planets with each other and the sun, all
added to the fact that Saturn is passing
his equinox, make the outlook an ex-
ceedingly interesting one to all interest-
ed in planetary meteorology. We shall
expect more than the ordinary gales and
storms during the month, many of them
overleaping the limits of the regular
storm periods. A regular storm period
is central on the 30, insuring a rising
temperature for closing September, and
bringing in autumnal storms for open-
ing October.
A Tramp's Fiendish Crime.
He Murdered the Aged Couple Who
4 Gave Him Shelter.
HarrrorDp, Conn., Aug. 31,—A mur-
der, more fiendish than any in the an-
nals of crime in Hartford county, was
committed in the town of Bloomfield at
an early hour yesterday morning. Hen-
ry Frederick Bushenhagen, aged 68
years, and his wife Emily, aged 71,
were killed by a tramp to whom they
had given shelter. Not content with
oy killing them he had frightfully
mutilated their bodies and had then
thrown the bleeding corpses into an
old well. When the fearful crime was
made known the excitement in Bloom-
field was'intense. Men, worked into a
passion of wrath,hunted through the ad-
Jjacent woods intent on apprehending the
assassin, but without avail. The mur
der was suspected last night, but not un
til this morning were the bodies found.
Two neighbors visited the farm for
the purpose of investigating and they
saw signs of a struggle in the barnyard
and noticed that the carb of a little well
was not in place, and going to the wall
they peered down the steep sides. On
top of the slimy, blood-stained water
rested the corpses of the aged couple.
‘When assistance arrived the murdered
couple were taken from the well. On
Bushenhagen’s head were found four
large wounds, probably made with a
cauvling pin, which was found in the
yard. One of the wounds was three
inches long and the skull was crushed
to a depth of four inches. On Mrs.
Bushenhagen’s head were five wounds,
every one of which crushed the skull.
These are believed to have been made
with an ax.
Robbery was not the motive of the
murder. In the house there were no
signs of ransack. About $25 were
found and no article was missing. That
no gutery was beard when the murder
was committed is explained by the fact
that the Bushenhagen house is situated
in a lovely part of town on & road little
used. The nearest house is almost a
wife distant. Officers are working on a
clue to the murderer. The selectiren of
the town offer $200 reward for the
fiend’s capture.

Girls in a Hornets’ Nest.
Reaping, Pa. August 29.-—Five
young ladies of Reading suffered a pain-
ful experience with hornets at the
Sunntoga camp-meeting this week and
some of them barely escaped with their
lives. They had taken off their shoes
and stockings to wade the brook, and on
ascending the farther bank disturbed a
hornets’ nest.
A swarm of venomous insects attacked
the girls and severely stung them on the
feet and lower limbs, Some of them
tainted from fright and pain, and none
were able to put on their shoes to walk
back to camp. A searching party late in
the evening found the young women
still at the brookside disabled.

Saturday p. m.last was eagerly looked for-

A special message reached him on Wednes-

had fled to that home above,which will be the

beautify the garden, aud a precious jewel to
adorn the diadem of the King. During the
frequent visits to this place she formed a le

sincerely lamented. Consumption caused her
death. She leaves four loving children and a
devoted husband to mourn her death, at the

concourse of people followed the remains to

Famine-Stricken Eurepe.
Floods Enhance the Need of America’s
Wheat and Rye.
LoxpoN, August 29.—The harvest
prospects o® England and Western Eu-
rope are much blacker than last week's.
Estimates of wheat deficiencies are large- |
ly increased. England has been simply
deluged with rain floods, in some parts
so severe as to sweep cattle and sheep
from the mountain-sides into the rivers.
The same reports come from Ireland,
Scotland and France. There has been
terrible destruction of cereal crops.
Harvest operations have been entirely
suspended. British farmers with small
holdings see nothing but ruin staring
them in the face next winter.
Dornbusch to-day says that the official
figures will probably put the wheat crop
of Europe this year at least 280,000,000
bushels below last year’s crop, France
will be pre-eminently the greatest suf-
ferer, then Russia, then England. Sto-
ries of bitter distress and starvation are
confined to Russia.
Military trucks loaded with corn for
exportation have been seized by mobs
along the frontier and emptisd of their
precious freight. The most grave of
these riots was at Vitebsk. For some
time the rioters had their own way with
a small body of soldiers.
The riot resulted in the kiiling of two
rioters and wounding ofseveral othars.
Vienna papers yesterday published
heartrending accounts of the distress in
Russia, told by a Russian priest named
Filomunow, who had just returned from
the Government district of Kasan. Ha
says :
“You who live in towns can form nro
conception of the distress amongst the
raral population. A few days ago I
visited the viallage of Naredy. Within
the first half hour I met sixteen poor
creatures at the last extremity of woe.
Most of them had not touched a morsel
of bread for a week. With distorted
features and glaring eyes they gazed at
me. Many of them were only able to
stretch out their hands for the food
offered them. A few only had strength
enough to eat i. They generally die
before help comes.”

Very Interesting.
Not even the Worl d’s Fair at' Chicago
in 1893 will be as interesting to he peo-
ple of the Northern States as the great
Southern Exposition that is to be held
during the months of October and No-
vember of this year at Raleigh, N. C.
It is so near the Northern States that
the round trip from New York will not
exceed fifteen dollars, and from Balti-
more not more than ten dollars.
At the Southern Exposition can be
seen all the curiosities of the Southern.
States,—growing cotten, rice,sugar cane,
peanuts, pine apples, ete.
of ginning cotton and distilling turpen-
tine will be shown every day during the
Exposition. -
This Exposition will be the greatest
object lesson ever. shown to the people
of the United States. The South is al-
most an unknown land to many of the
people of this section, and those who
miss the opportunity of visiting the
South will regret it after their friends
return and tell them what they saw.
Each of the Southern States is inter-
ested and taking part in the Exposition.
Itis not an ordinary undertaking or
simply a State Exposition, but the peo-
ple of the entire South, both white and
colored, have joined in this great work.
The Secretary of the Exposition is
Hon. Jnoe T. Patrick, of Raleigh, N. C.,
who is probably more favorably known
throughout the North as the leader in
the industrial movement of the South
than any other Southerner now living ;
ana Mr. Patrick will not only make a
success of this work, but he has by his
past record shown the greatest willing-
ness to give Northern people reliable
information of the South.
Northern manufactured goods are
solicited for exhibition, and it will pay
our people to seek the Southern trade.

In Memoriam.
| Died on the 21st ult., Brother George L.
Tovell, in the 58th year of his age. As mem-
ber of this noble order,and as personal friends,
we mourn his removal from our midst—we
miss his counsel—his'advice for our welfare
individually and collectively. The lodge has
lost an earnest worker, and society an orna-
ment. His suffering was great, and for more
than’a year’s duration, and he longed for that
inevitable change which would release his
weary pain racked form and take it to that
better home, of which he frequently spoke
and assured his friends that all was well.
We tender to his bereaved friends in behaif of
the lodge our sincere sympathy, and trust all
may imitate his example, so that when called
upon to leave this world our departure may
be as peaceful as his.
Resolved, That our charter be draped in
morning fora period of thirty days anda
copy of these resolutions be forwarded to the
friends of our departed brother. .

ERTILIZERS.=——-
‘We announce to our farmer friends in
Central Pennsylvania, that we have ar-
ranged for a supply of four different
grades of farm fertilizers, which we offer
for sale with the full assurance that we
are furnishing full market value for the
money we receive for the same.
CHAMPION $25.00 AMMONIATED

Our Champion $25.00 Ammoniated
Super-Phosphate bas been thoroughly

by many of them that it has given en-

izer. We have assurance from those
who use it that they received an honest
return in the crop for the money invest-
ed. Owing to the delay in advising us
how much was wanted by each farmer,
we could not supply all the demand
last year.
this year we request farmers to place
their orders with us before August 15th,
1891.
DISSOLVED SOUTH CAROLINA
ROCK.
| We have purchased two grades of
Dissolved South Carolina Rock; one
grade contains a minimum of.13 per
cen.tand the other a minimum of 14 per
cent. available Phosphoric Acid, the
analysis of which we guarantee. The
value of Dissolved South Carolina Rock
consists in the amount of available
Phosphoric Acid it contains. We are
prepared to furnish the most value in-
vested in this class of fertilizers,
When the goods shall have been re-
ceived, we invite a test analysis to be
made of any sample or from the goods
purchased by any farmer by the Chem-
ist of the State Board of Agriculture,
who is Dr. Frear, of the Pennsylvania
State College.” There is dissolved South
Carolina Rock of various grades and
called by different names, such as Acid
Phosphate, being placed on the market,
which is adulterated and only contains
11 per cent. available Phosphoric - Acid,
the value of which is at least four dol-
lars per ton less than the fertilizer we
sell, which contains a minimum of 14
per cent. available Phosphoric Acid.
‘We invite a critical examination and a
thorough comparative analysis of the
Dissolved South Carolina Rock we sell.
‘We assure our farmer friends that we
do not offer to sell them shoddy goods—
our greatest ambition being to furnish
the largest value for the least money.

BUFFALO HONEST FERTIL-
IZERS.
The Buffalo, which has been the
leading fertitizer of Centre county for
at least twelve years, still maiatains its
reputation of furnishing an honest re-
turn for the money invested. 1t is
strictly what is claimed for it,**An Hon-
est Fertilizer.” Meay of the leading
farmers of Centre county, among whom
we refer to Major Wm. F. Reynolds, of
Bellefonte, Hezekiah K. Hoy, of Ben-
Azronsburg, pronounce it the most pro-
fitable fertilizer they have used, because
it not only stimulates a prolific growth
aswell as 8 large yield of wheat, but
| the grass shows the effects of its strength
|| for several years.
DEMAND FOR FERTILIZERS.
From present indications the demand
| for fertilizers will be very large this
year, which makes it necessary for
farmers to place their orders early to
make sure of their supply. We sell
these fertilizers by the bag, tom or car
load at popular prices,
