A«BROTHEL RAIDED.

The Police Arrest the Inmates of a Notorious Place In tbe North End and They Were Before the Mayor ou Thursday.

There has been much complaint about a gilded palace of sin run by a woman named Dora Stilwell in the north end and Wednesday night the police swooped down on the inmates and took them in. They caught a country girl and the Stilwell woman and an aged gentleman from the north part of the county. The party appearedbefore the mayor on Thursday and were all fin&d the limit. The girl is the daughter of a wealthy farmer and figured in a sensation here last fall at the Junction. She could have a home of ease if Bhe desired it, but prefers a life of debauchery instead. Her companion last fall and Wednesday was the same man, and is a man in good circumstances aged about sixty years and the father of eleven children. His escapades with the girl have been the talk of the north part of the county for Bome time and he has scandalized seyeral of the small towns of the county with his sprees in ompanv with this woman.

Storm cellars and heavy wraps will be in demand frequently during the month of September, if the predictions of Foster, the weather prognosticator, come true. Here iB what he say*: "September brings us back to the autumnal equinox—the month of hurricanes in the south and changes in seasonal conditions over most of the northern hemisphere. A regular storm period extends from the 3d to 0th. Very warm weather and low barometer will culminate in many Btorms about 4th to 6th, An active high barsmeter and much cooler from about Cth to 9th. Centering about 10th,to 12th,' more very decided storms will transpire. Equinoctial gales on seas and coasts very probable. A change to cooler will come after stormB, with frost probable to the north. The 15th to 19tb is another marked storm period. If warm and sultry with low barameter, keep your eye on storms. The same is true for the reactionary period 21st to 24th. This is the center of autumnal equinox, at which times great atmos pheric perturbations will be due. Very 'cool weather with killing frost north will follow after Btorms. The 26th to 30th 1B a storm period at center of

Venus period. Watch the storms." DeVoe, who is crowding Foster for favor as a weather forecaster, tells pretty much the same story, only that he has more cold weather and harder storms on his climatic bill of fare For instance, he says that the month will start in with the whole countrv experiencing a cold wave. He locates one of the heaviest storms of the month in the Ohio valley, and swings in another cold wave from the 28d to 24th, There will be much rain during the month.

Pres Plead Guilty.

President Mitchell, of Wingate plead guilty in Stilwell's court Wednes' day afternoon to the charge of assaulting Richard W. Cording.
