Hick’s FORECAST FOR OCTOBER.—Oot-
tober came in with the last stages of a re-
gular storm period disappearing to eastern
extremes and colder. The first storm
period was central on the 4th and 5th.
Fluctuations of the barometer, rising tem-
perature, cloudines and spits of rain were
probable at this time, but the disturbances
were short lived. Such conditions wil}
lead up to the storm period next following.
Second storm period extends from the
8th to the 13th. having its center on the
11th. The storms and other perturbations
of this period will he more general and en-
ergetic. At the very beginning of the
period look for mach warmer, with easterly
to southerly winds and falling barometer.
Autumnal storminess and rains will prob-
ably begin in western sections early as
the 8th. Thunder storms will most likely
appear during the first stages of the disturb-
ances, especially along the southern side
of the storm centers. The period promises
to be prolonged for several days, unless
sharp electric storms on and ahout the 8th,
are followed by sudden high barometer and
sold northern winds. In such event,
another distinct storm perturbation will
develop and pass over the country from the
11th to the 14th.
The third storm period is central on the
16th,17¢h, and 18th. The earth at this time
will pass directly through the path of the
solar energy that plies between the sun
and Jupiter, hence unusual atmospheric
instability, with magnetic and electrical
perturbation, will prevail. Rapid ris-
ing and falling of the barometer will
cause corresponding storminess ‘and
changes of temperature. Seismic shakes
will be natural at this time and other
periods in this part of the month. De-
cided change to cooler, with frosty
nights to the northward, will follow thie
disturbauncee.
The fourth storm period runs from the
20th to the 25th, central on the 22nd. It
is probable that some of the most marked
disturbances of the month will occur at
this time. Low barometer and rapid change
may be expected in all western sections
as early as the 21st. Rain, with probable
thunder storms, will quickly follow, and
during the 220d and 23rd and 24th a
series of storms will pass over thé country
from west to east. These disturbances
will culminate on and touching the 24th,
with high barometer, gales from the west
and north and change to much colder.
Earthquake disturbances will be felt in
many parts of the globe not far, from the
24th. These perturbations will wind up
with an October cold wave bringing heavy
frosts to most parts of the conntry for sev-
eral nights following the storms.
Fifth storm period is central on the 27th
and 28th. Some energetic storms, especially
on aud about the lakes and north Atlantic,
will appear at this time. Rain will turn to
sleet and snow northward, although the
moon at extreme position north will tend
to prevent or delay high barometer and
severe borean weather. ;
McCLINTICK-MCAULAY.—A very pret-
ty wedding took place in the M. E. church
at Lamar, on Thursday, Sept. 29th, 1904,
at 10 o’clock a m.. the contracting parties

and Miss Grace McClintick, of Lamar.

maids and Messrs. Bergstresser and Pifer as
best men. Miss Kate Dornblaser played
the organ and the Misses Dornblaser sang
the wedding march. Rev. Mr. Reeser ol-
ficiated at the ceremony.
The church was very beautifully deco-
rated by Miss McClintiok’s Sunday school
class. After the wedding a delicious din-
ner was served at the home of the bride's
parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. J. McClintiok.
The bride is a charming girl, has many.
friends and is well fitted to take up the
duties of housekeeping. The groom is an
industrious and reliable young gentleman

ARBOR DAY.—Friday, October 21st, has
been designated as Autumn Arbor day and
state superintendent of public instruction
N. C. Schaeffer, in a proclamation issued
on the subject, says in part :
‘The State of Pennsylvania now owns
632,937 acres of land which have been set
apart for the growth of trees. This area is
more than that of Lancaster county (927
square miles) the richest agricultural
county iu (be United States. There are
five hundred million acres of growing for-
ests in the United States outside of our
insalar possessions. And yet it is esti-
mated that the aunual cousumption of
wood is twice as great as its growth. The
fact shows the importance of forestry as a
national industry. It is second only to
agricultore.
“Friday, October 21st, 1904, is designated
as Autumn Arbor day with the request
that suitable exercises be arranged for that
day. Let the schools discuss the event
which transpired under trees like the
Charter Oak, the Liberty Elm, the William
Penn tree and others which have become
famous in history. Let the economio value
of trees be discussed, and ahove all let
trees be planted upon the school grounds,
around the homes and along the highways
so that the day may be profitable from the
economic point of view as well as valuable
for educational purposes.’’

WHY TROUT SHOULD BE PLENTY—Fish
Commissioner W. E. Meehan is making
plans for a more ample stocking of all the
streams of the State with brook trout. In
a recent statement he said that at the
Bellefonte hatchery he has reserved 50,000
fry for breeding purposes next year, 75,-
‘000 have been reserved at the Corry station
and 50,000 have been sent to the Wayne
county hatchery making a total of 175,000
fry. This number is more than seven
times the number of matured breeders now
in the Bellefonte and Corry stations and
those at Bellefonte are more than double
the entire stock of breeders which were re-
served in any two hatcheries in previous
years. Every female in the number re-
served will produce about 300 eggs.
There will not be many more fry for
distribution next spring, however, than
there was last—about 6,000,000—owing to
the fact that this year’s stock of breeders
is too small, bus after next year, if the
Commissioner’s plans materialize, there
will be abundant fry every spring to fully
stock all the good trout streams in the
State.
Big CuAL DEAL.—J. Edward Horn &
Co. recently purchased all the coal lauds
of J. F. Stott, a short distance east of
Philipsburg, starting at the Moshanpon
creek, near Loch Lohmond, and running
back across the Bellefonte pike and the
Half-moon road, embracing 766 acres.
Part of this land is known as the Ophir
property,
operation for some time by J. F. Stott &
Co. Five mines are now open on the prop-
erty, only one of which isin operation,
but the other four will be put into shape
without delay for shipping coal, and as
soon as the railroad extension up the One
Mile creek can be completed, five other
first-class mines will be opened, making
ten mines this new firm expects to operate
on the tract in question. The seams are
known as ‘‘A’’ and *‘B,” and are of a very
fine quality, the latter vein being of un-
usually choice grade. Coal will all go ont
over the New York Central railroad.
DONATIONS FOR THE HOSPITAL ASKED.
—No public appeal has been made recently
for donations for the hospital and a num-
ber of things are much needed. A response
to this appeal of the lady managers it is
hoped will come from all parts of the
county as the hospital belongs to the coun-
ty and not Bellefonte alone and any help,
however little, is much appreciated at the
present time. The following articles are
most needed :
