May 10. Professor Foster miulo the following torocimta exclusively for the Roi KV Moi'nt wn kwh; "My lust forecast gave notice of a storm wave due to pass Colorado not far from the 10th, and the uext will bo due to pass the longitude of Denver about tho 3S1. The center of this storm wave will ptobaldy niovo'by way of Salt Lake City, southern Colorado and tho Indian turritory and will moio particularly effect tho Southern states, for tho tenter of tho storm wave has less force thaa any other part of the storm, the southeast quadrant being the mont severe and the northwest quarter being next In force, Northwest and following this storm the weather will bowery cool, with frosts in most of the stales nlong tho northern border, This storm wave and the two following It will give us tho regular rain perti.d that occurs about every fifty two days, and in the low lands wo may expect an increnso of rainfall, and on the western slopes of the mountain ranges. But this will not greatly effect Colorado, except perhaps the portiou of it. The rainfall Is slowly reaching higher altitudes, but Us main effects will bt seen for the present In northern Texas." "Tho readers of The News must not expect infallibility; they may hope, how ever, that, as soon as we can get the authorities to looking in the light direction we cm soon give to the country the value of the $800,000 the people are paying out annually for thu support of tho Washington weather bureau." From Pensylvania.

Fortbe Jouiinai. Dear friends In Greeley Co. Although we aie enjoying the Bprlng flowers, the blooming orchards, the green fields of I'eiin. and the plennines of home, we have not forgotten "Sunny Kansas" nor the kind people we left thero. Wo look eagerly each week for our Co.

paper. The fruit trees are shedding rich odors, and showers of blossoms. We Imvo had sharp frosts but they are blooming still. La grippe has been doing sad work hero this spring. Bo many of the old folks, the middle aged ami the young, are taken down aud In a few days all is over.

Could wo have brought the healthy atmosphere of Greeley Co, with us, many would have been the blessings Invoked upon o.ir heads. Tho members of the W. C. though thoy meet maiiy discouragements, are still carrying on tho good work. They aro getting ready for their annual Co.

convention which will be held this month, in Klttann-Ing, where from the results of the late license system it is badly needed. Tho Y's of this community will hold an entertainment on uext Thursday even-lug to rally and secure new members. Dear friends though we seldom hear from you, wo know we will have your sympathy In what has been, to us, a touthiug sorrow. A lew weeks ago we were blessed with the gift of a beautiful llttlo blue, eyes and baby charms, brought much joy to our thank ful hearts and to tho home of our dear frleuds. But in a few days, like the Spring Flowtrs, he began to wither and in a week from tho time his sweet life greeted us, his spirit returned to God and His waxen form was laid to rest in the old cemetery at home.

Oh. a sad, sweet sorrow lingers O'er the thrill of Joy that came, With the touch of baby fingers. And the thought of baby's name. Tho rod was raised, and wo pasod under Trying swot-tly to obey; But our hearts were lost, in wonder As we held his lifeless clay. Yet.

he's only gono before us To that ha ppy i ausomed throng. Where his voice has joined the chorus Of the sweet "Redemption Song." Yours Respectfully. Jennie N. Phillips. The old reliable DEERING BINDERS.

TRIBUNE, GREELEY FLOUR, FEED COAL. A. RYMPH. Mrs. C.

II. Aduuis died at her home here at Monday morning, May 18, 18D1, at five o'clock, Mrs. Adams had been 111 for sevorul weeks but was uot considered dangerously so until a few days before her death. No visit of the death angel to our little town since its first settlomeut has caused such universal sorrow as this one which took fiuin among us one ol our brightest and best women. She lias been a resident otTillmue a lidlo more thau a year and by her cheerful disposi tion, bright social qualities and sterling worth of character bad made herself loved by all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance and all unite in raournln her sudden departure.

She was close student of all matters of general interest and possessed a bright mind which she kept well stored with tho lat est and best things ot practical Interest, She was a member ot tho Chautauqua class of 1893 aud faithfully performed all the work laid out for the students of the course of reading. She was a consistent Christiau and while here was interested in all work for the advancement of the Christiau work In our town and us the end of her life approached expressed no doubts or fears as to the future life. Mrs. Adams was born In Ohio in I00 and came to Hiawatha, Kansas, in 1808 with hor parents whero she lived until February, 1890, when sho camo to Trlb uno the bride of C. H.

Adams, one of the first settlers of tho county and no of our most substantial and respected citl zens. Hv aged father, T. 15. Dickson. of Hiawatha, arrived hero only a few days before her death to visit her with out knowing she was so seriously ill.

He remained until the end and with tho bo- rcaved husband accompanied tho re mains to the old homo. Short funeral services were held at the residence 5 o'clock r. m. Monday and a large number of frieu.ls were at the depot in tho evening to do what they could to show their love and respect to their departed friend and neighbor. Mr.

Dickson and Mr. both wish to publicly render to the friends in Tribune their thanks for the kindness to their loved one during her illness and for tho general expression of friendship and sympathy to them in their bereave ment. In this sad association with the people of Tribune they have met with tliosa qualities of the mind and heart which lift humanity up and help to make lighter the burdens of such a sorrow. Southeast Items. T.

Gorboe is working on tho railroad at Whitclaw. Mr. Pleasants is very pleasantly smil ing about his homestead after a few weeks vacation. A letter from Warren county, Iowa, states that it is a dry and cold and a very backward spring. "Whiskers and socks will take a front row at Cincinnati." (Republican.) The lion (republican party) roareth and the whangdoodlo (democratic party) mourneth when the clodhoppers (Peoples' party) tramp on their toes.

Two new members rode the goat at the Whitelaw Alliance last Thursday evening and the good work goes on. The potato crop never looked better than it docs now in this part of the coun ty. A crop of any kind can be raised in Greeley county with less rain than in any other part of the state, and all we need is a few more good tillers and we wili have the rain and Greeley will take the lead. As per special call the members of the Pick Wick Sabbath School met at the residence of Miss Hopkins and reorgan ized. On motion C.

E. Hamilton was elected chairman pro tern Then the following permanent officers were elect Miss L. Hopkins, Superintendent; A. J. Marino, Secretary; C.

E. Hamilton. Treasurer. Vacancies of the trustees office caused by the removal of A. Rogers and Wm.

Hogue from the county were filled by A. J. Marine ann Miss L. Hopkins, R. Marine was appointed chor- ster.

A motion carried for tho Bnhnr.1 to meet at the Union school honse every Sabbath at 3 o'clock p. m. sharp, sun time. Teachers: Bible class, C. E.nam ilton; Juveuile, J.

W. Pleasants. All are invited to come. i To the Farmers of Kansas. As no one as yet is authorized to ar range for the collection, of samples for the proposed display of Kansas products at the Columbian exposition, and as many of our finest fields of wheat, rve oats, may mature before an organ ization can be secured, I beg leave, very respectfully, to suggest to those having field crops from which good camples may bo selected to secure the same bo- fore harvest, cutting the straw as near the ground as possible, and safely store the rame until such time as they mav be called for by the proper committee.

It is confidently expected that liberal premiums1 will be offered by the board or managers, when selected, for samples in the straw, of the cereals named, and as the out look is now good for flue crops the samples desired should be se cured as the crops mat lie. They thould Vw, 1 ud icnxmi just oeiorc Harvest being- and in quantity sufficient (two good ized bundles of each variety selected from) to meet the requirements ot the board when premiums may be offered.

George Robinson fmled to complete his final proof Suturdii on account of not bavingtakeu out his flunl naturalization papers. He went to ClaCin, Kan sas Saturday night, and will return in a few weeks to try again. The ladies of Horace are making it warm for the violators of the prohibitory law and if they cau secure proper evidence prosecutions will be beguu against the set of men who are doing so much to Injure the prosperity and good name of the town. Maysuccess attend their labors. George F.

Robinson made flnaljproof on his homestead before Judge VanKoy aud George R. Smith went through the same ordeal before district clerk Will" iamson. Both of these gentlemen have put in the full five years on their claims and do not have to contribute anything to the coffers of Uncle Sam. W. m.

Glenn aud Carter Hutchinson tried bachelor's hall for a few days after the closing of the Acme house and succeeded in living by their owu csoking until Saturday when they were invited out te Robert Eadie's. Suuday they took dinner with Robert Pringle and family and after these feasts with the farmers they could not come back to bachelor life and are boarding again. A number of farmers who had cattle dehorned this season are complaining of the wounds not healing promptly ar.d causing running sores that threaten the health aud even the life of the ouima s. Dehorning is not yet the success that is claimed for it by its strongest advocates and it will not be surprising to see a reaction in the sentiment of the stockmen on this question. The danger of having permanently diseased cattle and the prob ability that the government meat Inspec tors may pronounce against the practice as endangering the health of tho meat may prove more of a drawback to the cattle industry than the horns.

Office of Couuty Clerk, Tribune Kansas, May 1, 1891.

By act of Congress approved March 8, 1891, the eighteen pension agencies in the United States are arranged in three groups, to take effect from and alter July I. 1891. Tho first croup which consists of Chicago, Des Moines, Buffalo, Concord Milwaukee and Pittsburg, will make their payments January 4, April 4, July i and October the 4 of each year. The second Rionp, which consists of Indianapolis, Topeka, Louisville, Thila dclphin, Kooxvillc and New York, will make their payments Febiuary 4, May, 4, August 4, and Noycmlier tho 4, of each year. The third group, which consists of Columbus, Washington.

Boston, Detroit, Augusta and San Francisco, will make their payments Mnrch 4, June 4, Sep tember 4, aud December 4, as at present. In tho PiiHESoLooicAi, Journal and Science of Health for May there are several notable titles that must cemmend themselves to reader, whether regular or occasional, especially the piquant remarks in "The Voice," "Laughter" and "The Hair," and tho odd "Roveric on Feet," with its striking sketches of attitude; tbo interesting biography of Dr. Charles Caldwell recalls a very marked character of forty years ago; Phreiiologi cal Hits, of which Prof- Sizcr has selected four, begins a series of items that will add to the liveliness of his department. Lester A. Roberts and E.

A. Chapman, both gentlemen well known in New York and Brooklin circles to receive that appreciative considerttion that solid worth and more than common capacity deserves. Portraits accompany the writer's remarks. Dr. Kcnenly's very significant study, "The Talent of Moth erhood," is concluded with such pert! nent aud valuable inferences that they deserve to be written in gold letters.

"Education and the State," has the ring of direct application, and so has "Cultivated Wilfulness." In the Science and Health Department, Alcoholism, Chemical Notes of Iligenic Treatment and tho absurdities of "Modern Dress," a very witty bit of writing, are leading features. The editor talks of Mozart's skull. Leigh Hunt a the Nose, and the new society for examining brains The other parts of the number are tilled with seasonable items, not one of which has dry flavor. Price only 15 cents, or $1.00 a year. Address the publishers.
