ROUGH WEATHER FOR JANUARY

Two Big Cold Waves Are Promised With Storms of Rain, Sleet and Snow. The month of December has furnished such fine weather that there is much speculation as to what the month of January will bring. Therefore the forecasts of Rev. Irl R. Hicks, the'weather prophet, will be of special interest this month. Read them and see is a good guesser. He predicts a rough month. The forecast is as follows: A reactionary storm period is central on the 3rd, 4th and sth. The chief astronomic causes of disturbances at this time, are the equinoxes of Mercury, Mars and Jupiter. The month will open with cloudy, unsettled weather. Falling barometer, bringing rain, sleet and snow, will pass over the country, from west to east, on and next to the 3rd. 4th and sth. Sleet will be a marked feature of these storms, especially in central and northern regions, and with a low dip of the barometer heavy snow will fall, and a cold wave from the northwest will wind up the period. The moon is in the extreme south on the sth, pulling cold atmospheric tides to the south from the north. Don’t be unprepared for vicious winter storm and weather.

A regular storm period is central on the 9th, extending from the 7th to the 13th. A number of decided storms will pass eastwardly across the country during and immediately following this period, bringing a prolonged spell of heavy storms and hard, winter weather. This is at the center of the Mars period, combined with Vulcan, Mercury and Jupiter., Much the same character of storms and weather existing at this time, and for several storm periods previous, will prevail all through January and February. We believe that wide and dangerous blizzards will visit most parts of the with tropical storms in the south, endin'g in great cold waves over the entire country.

A reactionary storm period will take up and prolong disturbances on the 14th, 15th and 16th. Falling barometer, change to warmer, with possibly winter lightning and thunder about the 13th, will bring continued storms into these reactionary days, ending in general snow storms, with big cold wave following for several days. A regular storm period covers the 19th to the 24th, being central oil the 21st. This period will culminate on and touching the 22nd, 23rd and 24th, progressing eastward, in low barometer and rain southward with stiff blizzards and high gales northward, all followed by rising barometer and a cold wave sweeping from the northwest far into the south.

5 A reactionary storm period falls ’ on the 26th, 27th and 28th. Rapid 8 rise in temperature, falling baro--5 meter, with possibly winter thun- ; der storms on and touching that date. Rising barometer, snow ancL . change to much colder will wind t up the period. The Indications are t that January will prove a month of hard winter storms and weather.

Suit to Be Brought Against Benton Clerk.

Fowler Review. It is announced that suit is to be brought against Clarence Norquest, clerk of the Benton circuit court, the charge being that he is illegally retaining fees amounting to $170.15. In 1909 the legislature passed a law dealing with the compensation of county clerks, wherein it was specifically stated that the clerks were entitled to retain the transcript fees of their offices. The state board of accounts declares this law is unconstitutional and demands that all such fees be turned over. To such demands Mr. Norquest has turned a deaf ear and advises the board to get a decision of the court to sustain their position before insisting on payment. Behind him he has the statute and against him he has the unsupported demands of the board of accounts. Mr. Norquest says if the fees belong to the state he stands ready to turn them over when the fact is properly demonstrated. On the other hand if they are rightfully his he proposes to keep them and he knows that once they are relinquished, regardless of what the courts may decide in the future, they are gone forever, and he is ready to have the matter tried in the courts. The accountants who investigated the books of James Turner have him charged with S9OO, a part of which was transcript fees retained under the present law. He has Grant Hall employed to look after his interests at any time the state board of accounts gets ready to push the case.
