At the meeting of firemen and citi¬
zens yesterday evening Chief Geo. B.
White was made chairman and J. H.
Hufl .secretary. , .
The committee on subscriptions re¬
ported $620 raised, With various
sources yet to draw upon, making
an outlook of #750, and possibly
more. The more money can be ob¬
tained the bigger the day will
be, and it is expected to make this
one of the biggsst days Griffin ever
saw.
The committee on tests read a re¬
port giving $500 in gold as the tot-a
of prizes, $200 being first prize in
first test, and the amusements in¬
cluding several foot race*, sack races,
etc. This was adopted.
On motion a general committee of
arrangements was appointed, con¬
sisting often members and the chid,
as follows: G. B.White, B.H. Drake.,
J. M. Mills, Douglas Glessner, W. B.
Hudson, J. H. Huff, M. F- Morris, M.

ister, T. E. Drewry. This committee
is called to meet at B. H. Drake’s
office at 6 o’clock on Monday evening,
and it is hoped and expected that
every member will be present. '

JUNE 8 T 0 RM PEBI 0 DS.
Rev. Iri R. Hicks Gives Hi* Meteorolo¬
gical Forecast tor June.
As some of the readers of the News
and Sen think the May predictions
of Mr. Hicks.have failed to material¬
ize, we refer them to the newspapers
of North Carolina, Virginia and Ken¬
tucky, not to mention other South¬
ern States, where every prediction he
made came true with a severity that
has ruined thousands of farmers in
their growing crops. These predic¬
tions are not designed for Griffin
alone, or even Georgia, and in main
they have been too accurately made
to be enjoyable. As they are simply
storm predictions, having no refer¬
ence to mild, pleasant weather except
as it is sandwiched between storms,
there is little that is attractive about
them. Under date of May 14, editor
Hicks gives these forecasts for June
in his valuable monthy journal,
“Word and Works:”
The first day of June is the center
of a regular storm period. It will be
very warm, with storm forces organ¬
ized and in motion near the regions
where storms usually originate. By
about the 3rd and 4th they will have
spent their force, and cooler weather
follow in the track. General rains
and storms of greater or less violence
may reasonably be expected. We.
name the 1st, 2d and 3rd as thedays
of greatest probable danger.
About the 7th is a day which ordi¬
narily might bring slight, reactionary
storms, but here summer solstice and
the effects of the planet Mars are apt
to prolong the disturbance and pro¬
voke to greater violence.
About the 10th the annual solstice
period begins, continuing as a rule
past the 21st. A regular storm
period is central this year on the 12th |
constituting the period 10th to 16th
one of marked importance. Hard
storms within this limit will be al¬
most a physical necessity. Keep a
prudent weather eye on say about
the 11th, 12th, 18th and 14th.
Watch the temperature and the
clouds. Warm, southerly winds and
threatening clouds will mean danger.
There ought to be great and general
rains at this time.
Tim disturbance of Jupiter and
Mars are central throughout Hie
whole of fbe solstice period this year,
and will, doubtless, aggravate and
prolong the regular and reactionary
disturbances intojspelis of continuous
rainy weather. Mars is on the 16th.
and the 17th and the 18tb reaction¬
ary; watch allstdhns on
last period for J une. With the moon
between the sun and earth on the
morning ot the 28th, the most active
part of this period may come at the
last. Ordinarily the danger days
would fall about the 24th, 25 and
Should heavy rains and elec¬
storms by any means fail at
the June periods, violent volcanic
and earthquake convulsions may be
expected, especially about the close
of the month. Watch the special,
“long time predictions” of the United
States signal service. Note the
periods they cover, the localities in
dicated, and use them generally “lor
all that they are worth.” God's pro¬
tection and blessing upon all!
