GIVE Us FOR JUNE.—From Ira Hicks:
paper, Word and Works, we copy the
weather forecast for this month :
By June 1 storms developing in the
western 1egions the last of May will be
advanced toward the central part of the
country. It will be quite warm with
easterly and southerly winds in all the
eastern parts, the areas of precipitation
and storms will be approaching the cen-
tral parts, while the far west and north
west have winds shifting to westerly,
with rising barometer and cooler. Storms
will reach the extreme west by the 3d,
and the change to cooler, fair weather
will have crossed the continent. Warm-
er weather will centre, in a progressive
way, about the 6th and 7th, reaching a
high temperature and resulting in re-
actionary storms on and touching those
dates. Westerly winds, rising barome-
ter, with a cool spurt will follow about
the 7th to 9th, first to the west, later
east.
About the 10th strong indications of
the solstice storms will appear. Easterly
to southerly winds will prevail—barom-
eter will begin to fall, and it will grow
warmer, resulting in many active storms
from the 11th to 14th. The temperature
and storms are apt to reach a crisis about
new moon. Renewed activity of vol-
canoes and earthquake disturbances may
naturally be expected, though not neces-
sarily dangerous. They are the read-
justments of a natural force and should
be looked upon as beneficial, rather
than calamitous. There will be great
electrical activity during solstice storms,
especially during the night, but no one
should be alarmed asit will prove grand-
er than disastrous. Our friends will re-
member the tendency of storms to whirl
suddenly back from the east, from about
10th to 25th of June. Showerly con-
ditions are liable during all that period,
and local swirls will repeatedly fly back
after passing east, unexpectedly taking
the starch from the collars of the un-
sheltered people. Heavier reactionary
storms will pass eastward about 17th to
19th, and should the barometer not rise
and the wind remain easterly tosouther-
ly, a series of daily storms will fill the
intervening days up to the next period.
From the 21st to 25th, inclusive, we
will pass the turning point in our trip
around the sun, and start for shorter days
and longer nights. It will be natural to
expect some heavy storms, with rain and
much lightning and thunder, say about
23d, 24th, 25th. Cooler weather will
succeed these storms, and regions that
are short of moisture at the end of this
period will have to contend with serious
drought. Reactionary disturbances are
central on the 29th, with the full moon
and the equinox of Mercury on the same
day.
Lost THE GAME IN THE NINTH.—
The Tyrone base ball team had the
State College lads beaten until the ninth
inning in their game here Saturday.
In that inning an unfortunate wild
throw by Dillon permitted two college
boys to cross the plate, and bring the
score to 3 to 2 in their favor. Metcalf
had held his opponents down finely,
only two hits being made from bis
speedy delivery in the first seven in-
nings. Gill played a magnificient game
both behind and with the bat, and with
the exception of Dillon the home play-
ers gave their battery good support.
The college boys put up a first-class
game, too, Saylor keeping the hits well
scattered and his supporters playing an
almost errorless game behind him. The
Main circus band furnished some fine
music at the grounds. There was a
large attendance. The score follows:

A Bap RuNAWAY.—On Tuesday
morning a gentleman by the name of
Bush, with his wife and little baby, was
driving along the road to Coalville and

Co’s., plant a locomotive on the B. C.

dashes overturned the buggy and threw

smashed up and the baby was seriously
kurt, Mr. and Mrs. Bush escaping
without much injury. The unfortunate
travelers were on their way to visit W.
H. Garbrick, at Coalville, who is Mrs.
Bush's father.
Tug Cause oF Maix’s Circus
Wreck.—The coroner’s jury impan-
elled to ascertain the cause of the loss of

morning of May 30th, concluded its

THE FRAGRANT HONEYSUCKLE.—
That veteran engineer, William Temple,
whose face is familiar to everyone who
lives along the line of the road to Snow
Shoe, dropped into tkis office on Mon-
day morning with two artistic boquets
of pink honeysuckle. We were more
both boquets behind. The delicious

REGULAR SEMI-MoNTHLY COUNCIL
MEexTiNG.—All of the members but one
found their way to the Council chamber,
ried through some business of decided
importance to the tax payer's of this
place. Perhaps the most important
transaction was council’s decision to
roller, which
was the result of the overwhelming tide
of popular sentiment against such an
extravagant out-iay and council got so
worked up over the matter that it even
refused to own the minutes of that spe-
cial meeting in Mr. Miller's office, at
which the roller was purchased.
A number of complaints and requests
were heard, all of which were referred
to the proper committees.
Under the head of new business Mr.
Garman presented a resolution in sub-
stance that hereafter all goods and mater-
ial purchased for the borough must be on
an ordersigned by thechairman of the
department for which said purchase is
made. Council re-affirmed its determi-
nation not to exonerate taxes on real
estate. Permission was granted the
county commissioners to place two four-
tains in the Court Hous2 yard and use
ty.
Under the head of reports o f commit-
tees and officers, Solicitor Dale reported
that he had notified property o wners on
Wilson street to open same for traffic,
and also the extensions of High, Curtin,
Linn and Beaver streets.
An important diversion in the proceed-
ings of the evening was the introduc-
tion of a resolution praying council to
take steps toward a re-organization of the
Board of Trada with a view to bringing
more manufactories to locate here; coun-
cil decided to act on the resolution and
a citizen’s meeting was held in the
court house last evening. Many per-
sons who have the welfare of the town
at heart were there and took a lively
interest in the proceedings. A perma-
nent Board of Trade was formed and all
manufacturers looking for a place to be-
gin business will be invited here to see
the superior advantages of our town.
