There h no .. Equinocsial Storm,
70 the Editor of TIE EVENING STAR:
In eye olden times" many absurd notions were
held In regard 10 the weather. Among them was
the belief that the equinoctial period somehow or
other had such a peculiar effect as 70 produce

the equinox" Is much like the changes OF the
moon. They are not a sudden tur. or change
whereby some extraordinary effects might be pro.
duced on the contrary, the change Is gradual
and continual; and there Is no reason why any
peculiar effect should follow when the earth turns
so as TO present one meridian parallel TO the d.
rect action OF the sun any more than when another
meridian or parallel Is thus presented.
