TIMOTHY RESIGNS.

Clarey will Quit the Western Union, after Thirty-three Years ot Service.

Timothy Clarey, better known as plain "Tim," who has held the position as linesman for the Western Union telegraph company between Louisville and Greencastle on the Monon, and Louisville and Indianapolis on the J., M. & I. railway, has tendered his resignation to the company to take effect October 31. He has been in the employ of the company for 33 years, and during that time has climbed enough telegraph poles, if they were placed end to end, to circle around the globe. He is an Irishman, as his name would indicate, and is a jolly, whole-souled fellow all the employes of the company like. He, it has often been stated, is the most economical linesman in the company's service, never using one-third the amount of money allowed him for expenses. He turns it all back to the company, stops at second class hotels, and appears to be satisfied. He has purchased a farm north of New Albany, and will try his hand at tilling the soil.

j A Vulcan storm period centers j on the first. Falling barometer, warmer, southerly winds, ending

in cloudiness and rain, may be expected from 1st to 3d reaching a crisis of high temperature and storminess about the time of new moon on the 3d. Close behind these storms a decided cold wave for the season will rush downward from the northwest causing snow, and cold, northerly currents will

j dominate most parts of the coun- ; try up to about the th. During ! the 7th and 8th a reaction from ; boreal, anti-storm conditions will i set in warmer weather will

spread from west to east, the barometer will fall and more rain,

turning to snow, will visit many

! sections over central and northern I states. From the 11th to Hth falls a Vulcan pertu nation, blended with Mercury and Mars, j Earth, Sun and Jupiter are in conjuction at the same time, there j being also a very unusual concenj tration of nearlv all the members

of the solar system near the same celestial longitude. Moon is in perigee on the 11th, and on the celestial equator on the 12th. There is no need for foolish fear or alarm when we say that heavy autumnal storms and gales are exceedingly probable between the 11th and 14th. Over the lakes and on the north Atlantic danger to shipping should be anticipated, while rain, sleet and snow will visit vast areas of the continent.

I Earthquake phenomena in many i barometer will again fail, and ali ! the conditions of precipitation and ! slormiucss will return, ivioon is i in apogee on the 24th, at last j quarter on the 26th. The low bar- ; ometer and warmth will culmi

nate, especially southward, in lightning and thunder on and next to the 26th, after which the high barometer, high winds aud cold will rush down from the north and west. It should be remembered that marked meteoric showers are due on and about the 27lh. The point from which they will radiate will be in Andromeda, which will be passing the meridian at the time from 8 to 10 o'clock, p. m. Andromeda will be nearlv straight ovet head at 9 o'clock, at about 45 to 50 degrees of north latitude. The last two days of the month will bring return of falling barometer, higher temperature and tendency to general rain and snow. x parts of the earth will be the nateral, and, in most instances, harmless, outcome of the peculiar as

tronomic condition at this time, and through all the central parts of November. A Mercury period is central with the full moon on the 17th, the 17th to 19th being also a reactionary storm period. There are strong probabilities of seismic phenomena on and about these dates. A November blizzard of sleet and snow, over the northern half of the country, need not surprise readers of these forecasts about the same dates. A general cold wave should be looked for at the culmination of this period, lasting up to about the 23d. AH perishable products should be put in readiness for prompt protection before this time. Means should be at hand for the sheltering of tender plants and shubbery, even far toward the south. Duiing the Vulcan storm period, extending irom the 23d to 27th, the
