It is, predicted that the rainy spell that
has been on for several days will con'
tlnue for forty days.
That is the prophecy of a citizen, who
says the people can satisfy themselves
that they will have rain for forty days
from July 15.
He bases bis predictions upon the fact
that the 15th of July was St. Swlthln's
day, and that there is a legend that says
If 4t rains on St. Swlthln's day It will
rain for forty days. Following is the
story: ’
St. Swlthln’s day, If tMou dost rain,
For forty days it will remain;
St. Swtthln s day, If thou be fair.
For forty days it will rain no more.
If it rains on St. Swlthln’s day, there
w<Ill be rain, more or less, every day,
for the next forty days afterwards. The
origin of this old and well known saying
is obscure. In Mr. Brand’s “Popular
Antlnquities," there !* a printed state
ment m Mr. Brand's last work, thus:
“In the year 8C5, St. 8within. Bishop of
Winchester, to which rank he was raised
by King Ethelwolfe, the Dane dying, was
canonized by the then pope. He was sin-
gular for his desire to be burled In the
open church yard, and not in the chancel
of the minister, aa was usual with other
bishops, which request was compiled with;
but the monks, on his bring canonized,
taking Lt into their heads that it was
disgraceful for the saint to lie in the
open church yard, resolved to remove his
body Into the choir, which was to have
been done with solemn procession on the
15th of July. It'rained, however, so vio
lently on that day, and for forty days
succeeding, as had hardly been known,
which made thorn set a3lde their design
as heretical and blasphemous; and. In
stead, they erected a Chapel over h!s
grave,, at which' many miracles are said
to have been wrought."
Ben Johnson In "Evefy Man Out of
$Us Humour," has a touch at almanac
wisdom and on St. Swlthln’s power over
the weather.
St. Swlthln’s relics were afterward re-
movedtnto the Cathedral of Winchester on
its being built under William the Con
queror.
CUT OUT THIS.
A Free Ride to Washington and Return
to the Most Popular Knight.
The Macon and Northern, in connec
tion with the Seaboard Air Line, have
opened up a new route from Macon to
Extern and Virginia cities. The pas-
voager equipment of the Macon and
Northern railroad has just been re
ceived from the shops and is one of the
finest trans leading out of Macon. The
Macon and Northern makes close con
nections at Athena with the solid vesti
bule limited train of the Seaboard Ail
Line, on of the handsomest trains
couth or Baltimore. This new line opens
up the most delightful and picturesque
routes from this section to all pbints in
the Carolines, Virginia and the East
and is becoming more popular every
day. The route to Washington over
which the free ticket will read will be
Macon and Northern and Seaboard Air
Line to Norfolk, thence via the pala
tial steamers of the Washington and
Norfolk line, giving passengers a most
delightful ride up the grand and pic
turesque Potomac, landing passengers
at the foot bf the Washington monu
ment. On the way up the Potomac
stops will be made at different points
of interest, including Old Point Comfort,
Fortress Monroe. Mt. Vernon (the home
of the illustrious Washington) nml at
the navy yards, where a view can be
ha/I of the United States war ships.
The ticket will be good August 27th
going and good* to return September 5.
The grand conclave of Knights of Py
thias of the United States will assem
ble in Washington August 28 and ba
reviewed by President Cleveland, a
pleasanter ride could not be taken at
thi« time of the year. The monotony
of nn all-rail line is broken by the boat
ride from Norfolk, and passengers can
go into Washington feeling fresh, with
out dust and in a position to enjoy tha
festivities immediately-upon arrival in
Washingon. t
