St. Joseph, Mo., Dec. 1.—My
last bulletin gave forecasts of the
stornf wave to cross the continent
rom Nov. 28 to Dec. 2 and Dec.
and 8. The next, on its joarney
around the earth, will reach the
Pacific coast near Seattle about
the 9th, cross the western moun-
tains by the close of the 10th, the
great central valleys from the 11th
to the 13h tand the eastern states
about the 14th.
This will probably be a dry
storm, its path by way of the np-
)er lakes, north of the lower lakes
hrough Nova Scotia and south to
iSew Foundland. Light snows
will fall north of this path and
ight rains sonth of it, accompan-
ed by warm weather throughout
the United States, followed by a
moderate cool wave.
The warm wave will cross the
western mountains about 9th, the
great central valleys about 11th
and the eastern states about the
3th. The cool wave will cross
the western mountains about the
2th, the great central valleys
about the 14th and the eastern
states abont the 16th.
My weather calculations for 1895
are now complete and in these bnl-
etins will be given about the last
of each month the average tempera-
ture and rainfall for the month
ollowing. Correspondents prompt-
y answeren if stamps are re-
mitten.
December, 1894, temperature
and rainfall in the eastern states
will be about the general average
of the month for many years past.
This does not apply to any one
ocality, but as an average of the
states lying east of the Alleghany
mountains.
The same rule applies to all the
divisions for which I give forecasts
of rainfall and temperature.
In ihe Ohio valley and Tennes-
see the temperature will average
above and the rainfall about nor-
mal.
The upper Mississippi valley
will be warm and dry, the Mis-
souri valley average temperature
and dry, the lake region and the
Pacific coast average temperature
and tainfall. In the southern
states not mentioned above the
temperature will average below
normal, rainfall west of the Mis-
sissippi in the southern states
alx)ut normal and east below nor-
mal.
The central portions of the
United States are promised a
December, the balance of the coun-
try an average temperature. Rain-
fall will generally be about or a
li* tie below the normal.
the new meteorology.
The new meteorology is no im-
pirical, as Chief Harrington de-
clares the forecasts of the national
weather bureau to be, but is
mathematical and scientific.
I have now devoted twelve
months, aided by an assistant, to
mathematical calculations of the
influences of the sun, moon, earth,
Mercury, Venus. Mars, Jupiter
and Saturn on our weather and the
tables thus perfected are perpetual
for all calculations of future
weather. That they are reliable
is proven by the fact that they
give the rainfall and temperature
for any past month.
It is not claimed that these
tables are perfect. In fact they
lack much of perfection. I have
tested them for the ten months o
of 1894, January to October incln
sive, for ail parts of the Unitec
States and find that they give re-
sults of which 80 per cent are goot
and 20 percent are bad.
These results are satisfactory
real!y wonderful, and lead to the
belief that another year's work on
the tables will bring them up to 90
or 95 per cent.
To give the reader an idea o
these tables and the work neces
sary in preparing them the eastern
states will be used by which to il
u.^trate. In estimating the effect
that planets have on our weather
I use a scale of twenty, ten above
and ten l>elow the general average
rainfall or temperature of the
month. Where the total result is
less than two of the scale above or
below the general average I esti
mate that the roinfall or tempera
ture will be near the average,
the result is more than two above
the forecast would be that rainfal
or temperature will be above the
average and if the resnlt is five
or more above very warm weather
or heavy rains would be predicted
while if as much below very cold
or dry weather would be expected.
I will take the actual results of
the calculations for Philadelphia,
Penn., and New Bedford, Mass.,
and compare the results of my
weather tables with the govern-
ment official report of rainfall and
temperature (or the month of Jan-
uary, 1894:

Fort Smith, Ark., Nov. 30.—
Thurruan Baldwin, alias "Skeet-
er," William Farris and Jesse
Snyder, all members of the Cook
;ang of desperadoes, were ar-
raigned in Judge Parker's court
today for trial. When asked by
Judge Parker if they had retained
counsel, *'Skeeter" replied that
they had not. Asked if they de-
sired counsel appointed the men
said no, that they desired to plead
gnilty, which was done. Judge
Parker sentenced "Skeeter" to
thirty years in the penitentiary at
Detroit, and William Farris and
Jesse Snyder twenty years each at
the same place.
After hearing the sentence
"Skeeter" remarked: "This is a
h—1 of a court to plead guilty in."
"Skeeter" plead euilty to par-
ticipating in the Red Fork rob-
bery, to robbing McDermott's
store and the postoffice, which is
situated in the store building. He
got ten years on each of the three
counts Snyder and Farris only
pleaded guilty to having been in
the latter robbery and got ten
years on each count. The appre-
hension and sentencing of these
members of the Cook gang is one
of the shortest pieces of work of
this kind ever accomplished. They
were placed under arrest at Wichi-
ta Falls, Tex., on the 20th of this
month, and just ten days later
they received their sentences and
were ready for their journey to the
penitentiary.
Many harsh criticisms are in-
dulged in because the officers do
dot more quickly suppress the
lawless gangs as the Cooks and
their followers. The fact remains
that Judge Parker's court, in con
junction with the marshal's forces,
are bringing more criminals to
justice than any other court in the
field. Both Hardin and other
members of the gang are now on
trial.
Hardin .is a wite man, and is
said to be a brother-in-law of the
Crooks. He is charged with be-
ing a participant in the fight
which took place near Tahlequah
on June 17, in which Sequeyah
Houston, a member of the sheriff's
posse, was killed. This, is the
crime thai first brought the Cook
boys into prominence. Jim and
Bill Cook, Cherokee Bill and Jim
French were the leaders in this
fight, and ever since that time the
last three have been on the scout.
Jim Cook is in jail at Tahlequah,
and has been for some time.

The last line above shows the
average total plus temperature
and rainfall of New Bedford and
Philadelphia and the line above
shows the total of planetary in-
fluence on a scale of twenty.
The temperature is the daily
average and the rainfall is the to-
tal for the mouth. To obtain the
tables showing the effect that a
planet has on our weather requires
a vast amount of work. The
weather record of New Bedford
gives the average daily tempera-
ture and monthly rainfall for
eighty-two years, 984 months,
29,050 days.
To find the effect that one plan-
et, Jupiter, has on the weather at
New Bedford 312 calculations
must be made, each calculation
containing the average monthly
rainfall and temperature of ten to
fourteen months.
These calculations have been
carefully gone through with for
Philadelphia and New Bedford,
the results added together, divided
by two and the tables thus ob
tained are used for estimating the
future temperature and rainfall of
the northeastern states.
More calculations are necessary,
however, in order to perfect these
weather tables and the old and
valuable weather records kept at
Boston and Amherst college.
Massachusetts; Fortress Monroe,
Va.; Newark. N. J.; Troy, N. Y

ment weather bureau as "New

have been made and will be per-
fected for the sonth Atlantic

THE SHADOW OF PEACE.
Montgomery, Ala., Nov. 30.—
Jf there is to be any trouble to-
morrow over the inauguration of
Colonel Oates or of Kolb, the
populist members of the legisla-
ture decline to be held responsible
for it, as is shown by the resolu-
tion adopted by them last night.
Both profess to believe there
will be no violence brought into
play tomorrow. Both will take
the oath of office as governor of
Alabama.
It is now believed that the pur-
pose of Kolb in having himself
■worn in is to put himself on re-
cord and to be in a position to
sign credentials of Colonel Reese,
wiio was nominated by the popu-
lists as United States senator and
who will contest the seat o! Sena-
tor Morgan, the regular appointed
senator, on the grounds that the
representatives who voted for him
were elected by fraud and hence
were not entitled to heats.
There are no developments to-
night that would seem to indicate
any trouble tomorrow. A very
large number of Kolb's support-
ers have arrived, but there is no
evidence that they are armed and
the people are inclined to believe
that the inauguration tomorrow
will develop no violence.
Captain Kolb's inauguration
promises to be without violent in-
cident. Excitement has therefore
subsided to a great extent.
WHIT ROSS KILLING.
Ardmore, Nov. 30.—H. H. Mc-
Lain, one of the most prominent
Ghickaaaws in the nation, and na-
tional permit collector, was arrest-
ed with his brother-in-law, Robert
today, charged with killing
in his room some time about 10
o'clock. McLain and Wynnwere
brougl t in by Deputies Stewart
and Booker. McLain denies the
crime and says Ross was shot
through the window by unknown
parties. His preliminary hearing
will be next Wednesday, before
Commissioner Gibbons.
ingalls on populism.
New York, Nov. 30 .—"If the
sworn, specified, detailed docu-
mented accusations of their own
leaders are to be believed, the
populist administration in Kansas
has been the most proflgate, de-
based, degraded and disgraceful
government ever known in ^ny
state in the Union. Before Tam-
many it pales."
It was thus that ex-Senator John
J. Ingalls described the late Lew-
elling regime in Kansas. He
came to this city from Boston,
where he delivered a lecture.
"Populism," said he, "has
reached its culmination. It has
made a remarkable impression
upon the legislation of congress.
The income tax is absolutely and
equivocally a populist measure.
It was advocated by neither the
republican nor the democratic
party. The populist platform
alone contained a line of reference
to such a tax. The income tax is
a measure of immense significance.
The populist crusade was a cam-
paign spoliations. I do not re-
gard the election of this year as in
any sense certificate of unqualified
confidence in the republican party.
Democracy met defeat because it
had demonstrated its conspicuous
and unequaled capacity to deal
rightly with present day problems.
The elections mean simyly that
the republican party has another
chance. If it fails it, too, will be
brought down. If the republican
leaders accept the opportunity
presented to them we shall win in
1896. But the tariff will not be
the great issue, nor will any can-
didate be successful whose posi-
tion is not known upon other, and
I believe, far more momentous
questions. The wealth of the
rich, the poverty of the poor, the
exclusive and menacing power of
great corporations, the strangula-
tion of trade by a vicious financial
system and the more general dif-
fusion of property among the
masses—these are the vital ques-
tions of today. Whichever party
shall suit its capacity to deal in-
telligently and successfully with
these pronlems will hold the reins
of government."
