September Weather.

Parson Hicks the weather prognosticator in his forecast for September, says that we are going to have all kinds of stormy fluctuations during the month. The ball is started rolling with a reactionary storm period, central on the 3rd, 4th and sth. Uhese disturbances will pass eastwardly over most parts of the country and will be followed by cooler weather for several days. A regular storm period is central on the 10th. The magnetic crisis occurring annually from about the Bth to the 15th of September, falls in this period. Storms of notable character will organize and take up their eastward march and will grow in magnitude up to the 14th. On about the 11th the earth passes a point in its orbit where each currents, auroral perturbations and volcanic unrest appear in maximum intensity. A reactionary storm period will again folfow on the 15th to the I.7th. Should the storms of the preceding period subside before the new moon on the 0 14th, stormy conditions will continue up to the 17th. Earthquakes and big tidal waves will visit many parts of the globe and about the 19th frost in northern streams is expected. On the 21st is the central day of the autumnal equinox. This period will bring prompt changes in temperature, together with storms of wind, rain and thunder will sweep eastward toward the Atlantic. Tjiese storms will be followed by northwest winds and very cool nights, bringing frosts to numerous localities. The month will wind up with marked storm conditions over all parts of the country. Summer conditions will give place to autumnal, vyhen tropical storms will make the last battle with boreal influences and be immediately followed by much cooler weather and frosts.
