My predlctionsof pleasant weather weath-er after that November northwestern snowstorm and blizzard were fully verified, and with the exception of two sharp storms with accompanying accompany-ing cold waves and two or three lighter disturbances, I expect a very pleasant December, followed by a winter of very much less severity than the average. I have been making calculations of next year's crop weather, and find that the rainfall will reach more elevated regions, and therefore countries like Texas, near the sea level, will hare much less rain; while elevated countries, like the Dakota, will have an Increase of rainfall. This will be favorable to Western Kansas, Nebraska, Northwestern North-western Texas, Southeastern Colorado, Colo-rado, and a more equal distribution in the Atlantic States. It should be remembered that the high and low barometers of tho storm move eastward near each other, the former for-mer gathering up the moisture from great bodies of water, and it is the depth of the tide In the atmosphere that causes the moisture to condense into rain near the sea level or enables en-ables it to float inland to higher elevations. ele-vations. As Jupiter near the sun and earth at its perihelion the atmosphere at-mosphere deepens and the rains move inland. As these tides reach their extremes of low and high, Western Kansas and Nebraska and similar lands midway between the hich and low lands have their dry year?. COJl!0 STORM WATEB. A storm wave was due to leavj the Pacific Coast about the,2stb, cross the Mississippi Valley from tlie 29th to Dtc 1st, and reach the Atlantic about the 2nd. Rut the notable storm of the Immediate future fu-ture u 111 be that due to leave the l'aclfic Coast about the 4th of December, De-cember, cross tho great middle valley from 5th to 7lh and reach the Atlantic coast about the Sth. This wlU be a very fierce torni and nill bo accompanied by a great variety or weather. As it moves eastward it will probably pass through tho middle part of the United Slates, and north of it will occur snow storms and blizzards with heavy rains In the southern states. Very cold wither will occur oc-cur in the extreme northwest. A number of letters have reached mo recently inquiring about my theory in reference to MOIIT, HEAT AND ELECTRICITY. If there were any light outside of the atmospheres that surrounded thei-tarsand planets we could not sec them because space would be as bright as they are. It is only bc-cau-ethey are surrounded by total darkness that we are able to see them. Light, heat and electricity are interchangatle. Paiut an Iron sail Jet black let the sun shine on it. and it will generate enough electricity to turn a llht electric meter. Paint the iron sail white and it will not pro-duo pro-duo electricity. Tho black sail will heat; the white ono will not. Place two cotton kerchief, one white tlie ether black, on the snow, the black one will melt into the snow, the white one will .not. The white reflects the sunlight, throws It otT into space, the black will not, and consequently it changes Into beat and e.'e.tricitj. This electricity electrici-ty nnj -bo changed back .to Ilgbt through the Iviison electric lamp. So with sunlight. When it leaves uie elements that surround the sun it meets with elements through which it cannot pass as light, changes to electricity,! n which form It tastes through space. The northern light is caused by electricity, occurs when the planets are In jnsltion to cause greatest electric activity and is evidence that our earth is growing Into the condition of a sun. Astronomers say that loth Jupiter and Saturn, to some extent, shine of their own light. The electricity from the dark side of our earth causes our moon to give off a faint light when the moon is eclipsed In the shadow of our earth, otherwise we could not are iu bicum Has eignt moons moving around it and they are to forae extent planets belonging to Saturn as their sun, as our eight principal planets belong to our sun. My theory is that all these began existence by the bringing together of two or more atoms through the agency of that ali-pervadlng force electricity, which is the motive power of the universe, the builder of everything, the principle of life that has puzzled us so much to understand. un-derstand. Light cannot exist away from condensed matter, "as the gases, liquids and solids, and in accord with the principles illustrated in the above exriments sunlight Immediately changes to electricity on leaving the elements that surround the sun and passes through dark space as electricity. Our atmosphere I a poor conductor of electricity and, as does the platinum plat-inum wire, it heats when the electricity elec-tricity endeavors to pass through it and the electricity changes to light and heat. When the light reaches the earth It Is again obstructed and changes to electricity and heat in thesurfaceof the earth. After circulating cir-culating through oureartfa,the electricity elec-tricity not condensed Into matter passes off again Into space. The condvnsing of electricity into a more solid form of matter Is the starting point of motion and force. This condensation keeps up the motion of the ether of space. , W. T. Foster.
