WM. RESIDES KILLED.
Train Near Curtin Monday
Evening.
i William Resides, a farmer of Union
{ township, met a sudden and tragic
death on Monday evening while walk-
ing on the railroad just west of Curtin
station. He was crossing the tressle
work and it is not known why he fail-
| to get out of the way of the Day Ex-
| press from Tyrone, due there’ at 5.10
| o'clock, but he failed to do so and the
| engineer in charge of the train, when
{ he saw the old gentleman was not get-
{ ting out of the way was unable to stop,
{and the engine struck Mr. Resides fair
in the breast knocking him fully sixty
| feet over the tressle and into the creek.
The train was at once stopped and
| several gentlemen went into the water |
and recovered the body but life was
extinet, and it is the belief that |
|
|
the |
man never knew a thing after he was
hit by the train. The body was taken
to Curtin station and from there taken
to Unionville on the 5.14 train west.
Mr. Resides was aged about sixty-
five years and leaves a wife and eight
children to mourn his untimely death.
The names of the children are Rachael,
Calvin M., Samantha, Owen, Elwood,
sarah K., Rachael and Norman,
had come west as far as Curtin on Ex-|
press. There he got his dinner and
remained until near evening when he
started to walk to Milesburg, and had
gotten but a short distance on his
journey when he met his tragic death.

THE WEATHER,
Foster's Predictions. —A Winter Storm Fol-
lowed by an Cold Wave,
My last bulletin gave forecasts of the
storm wave to cross the continent from
19th to 23d, and the next will reach
the Pacific coast about the 24th, cross
the western mouniain country by close
of 25th, the great central valleys from
26th to 28th, and the eastern states
about the 20th. This will be an ugly
winter storm, and will be followed by
a severe cold wave or blizzard, The
warm wave will cross the western
mountain country about the 24th, the
great central valleys 26th, and the east-
ern states 28th. The cold wave will |
cross the western mountain country |
about the 27th, the great central val-
leys 20th, and the eastern states 30th. |
Indications are favorable to an extend-
ed drouth in April and May, probably
of greatest extent in the northern
states. I will give a long range fore-
cast of this in my first February bulle- |
tin. This will be of great importance |
to farmers, and before giving a com- |
plete forecast the calculations will be |
carefully compiled. A drought at |
that time would not very seriously |
damage the northern states, but in|
some sections of the south it would be
ruinous.
