TEMPERATURE.
SIGNAL OFFICE, WAR DEPARTMENT, !
WASHINGTON { ITT, Nov. l, lSSS
The month OF October was cooler thsn
usual in all districts east of the Rocky
mountains, while IL was slightly warmer
than usual on the Pacific coast and
plateau regions. The daily average tenn.
perstUre for the month in the central VAL
leys, including the principal winter whest
states, WAS generally from to S
below the normal for the month.
About the same conditions prevailed In
the middle Atlantic states and New En-.
gland, while in the Guf stateg, Georgia
and Florida, The Temperature was only
from % to A lower than the normal. The
movement Of the frost line to the south
ward was very slight during the month Of
October, and the greater portion OF the
Gulf states, Southern Georgia, CT d the
whole of Florida continue south OF the
frost line. Killing frosts we're reported
in North Carolina on the 22d, and in Ten
nessee on the 29.h, and ut earlier dates
during the month In Maryland, Virginia
and Kentucky.
PRECIPITATION.
During the month Of October there has
been m excess Of precipitation over the
greater portion OF the southern, middle
At attic and New E ogland states. Lrgs
excuses, ranging from three to four
inches, occurred in South Carolina and
Georgia, where large deficiencies in rain
fall were previously reported. Large ex-
cesses also occurred in Southern Louis
iana, where the rainfall for the season
was largely above the normal. Through.
out the lake region and the upper Mlssls-
sippi and Missouri valleys, including Ne
brasks and the greater portion OF Kansas,
the rainfall for the month was less than
usual Over Minnesota, Wisconsin, lows,
Southeastern Dakota and Eastern Me-
oriska about one-half the usual rainfall
occurred.
GENERAL REMARKS.
The weather has been generally favor
aole for farm work in the winter wheat
states and the rairfsll for the month has
doubtless aft .cteds the winter whest crop
fsvorably. The rain In the southern por-
ton Of the Gulf states has improved the
condition Of growing crops in that sec
ton, although the reports indicate that
generally the weather for the season has
not been favorable for the cotton crop.

Newspaper "Night Owls"

There is always the proportion Of night
owls, men who work when others sleep.
They have an air about them which is
unmistakable, for while they look tired
from the toll they have just left, it is a
different kind of fatigue from that which
one notices among those who are ''up
late" Many, in fact the majority, Of
these are from the newspaper offices,
and they can always be known from the
shop talk they indulge in. Curiously
enough newspaper men do not talk very
much about their business in the day
time, not more, at least, than does any
other class of men.
But at night it would seem as though
their brains are so full of the subjects
they have just left that their chat be-
ONE of the shop, SLOPPY style. 1t is as
though surgeons had come from the
scene Of some operation and were con-
strained TO speak Of the flap and the
drainage. Their talk is ''caviare TO the
general, conveying as it does an odd
impression Of inside information among
the speakers. Then, too. it is mostly in
the future; they constantly talk of hat
which others do not know yet. Their
discussion is Of what the papers will
speak tomorrow morning; the news of
the afternoon has already become ancient
history TO them. That they deal in news
is recognized practically 10y others, for
nothing is more common than to have
some gentlemen apply for information

Mysterious Origin Of Fires.

Not long ago a lot of Sea Island cotton
in bales was discovered to be on fire in a
New Jersey warehouse, and when the
flames were extinguished in n spot,
they would Immediately break out in
another. An examination showed that
it was roller gin cotton; that is, cotton of
which the lint is drawn away from the
seeds by a pair of rollers, set at such a
distance apart as to keep the seeds from en-
tering between them. while the fibre passes
on and goes into a bag. In the present
case, more or less of the seeds had some
how got between the rollers and been
crushed, and had thus saturated the cot
ton with oil, which. in due time, had
caused spontaneous combustion.
A still more curious case occurred in a
Massachusetts, factory. In the middle Of
the room n milling machine was turning
knife handles, the dust being blown up
through a metal tube into the room above
and thence forced out Of doors through a
wooden pipe. A spark from an emery
wheel, fifteen feet from the milling ma
chine, struck a window, and rebounding,
entered the mouth OF the metal tube, set
the wood dust on fire, so that the flames
poured out Of the wooden ppein a stream
twenty feet long.
An engineer, cleaning up a mill, pu,
some cotton waste in front Of the boiler.
where it would be handy for the fireman
in the morning. During the night this
took fire spontaneously; the flames spread
to the kindlings under the boiler, and
500 raised steam enough TO cause the
boiler to blow off, badly soaring the
Waterman, who knew, or thought Re
knew, that there was no fire under =.
In another instance q man drove a mai,
into the ceiling Of a iute mill. The nail
glanced Off, was struck by the rapidly
moving beaters and cassed a serious con
tlagration .-Iouth's Companion.

shoe. In the Middle Arcs.

In the Middle Ages shoes of an ex.
travagant length became popular. In
the reign of Richard II the tips of some
reached to the knee, TO which they were
secured by gold and silver chains. The
upper parts We're frequently cut 10 imi-
tate church windows. Such shoes were
called ''Crackows," after the city of Graz
cow. They were introduced into Eng
land in the reign of Richard III by John,
the grandfather of his queen. Several
bulls were issued against these e~xtrava-
gances, but long toed shoes held their
own for nearly 300 wears.
The English parliament at n time
regulated 10y act not only the quality Of
the leather, but the number of stitches
10 be taken in making every shoe. In
l4G3 parliament prohibited the making
of any shoes for the unpriyileged
classes with points more than two
inches long. Tie top boots, 50 familiar

fans, Were introduced in the Sixteenth

II results from a special report made to

The Study Of Shorthand.

Nothing, in my judgment, surpasses
the study of shorthand for mental train
ing. 1t is, in its very essence an ac-
quirement hat lies far outside Of the
mental limits attainable by idiocy, and
the application Of its principles calls for
the constant exercise Of a greater and
steadier power Of concentration than the
t~echnicalities Of any other known accom-
plishment. The fastest writer is hahitu-
ally, on the average, rom six to a dozen
words behind the speaker, and to carry
these in the mind, while at the same time
executing multifarious s~tenographic in
tricacies upon the paper, is a feat which
can hardly be said. with truth, to lessen
the brains retentive faculty.-A. Z.

Tn. italian B~ootblack's Discovery.

The march Of Improvement is still on

caught its step. A gentleman who

of Lie shoes adorned with a nice patent
leather shine. When the artist completed
his work he took from the drawer Of his
box a piece of canton flannel about six
inches wide and a foot long. Firmly
grasping its ends he applied its woolly
side 10 the tip of first the right and then
the newly shined boots, and rubbed them
up. until the polish on them was as
smooth as that of the patent leather.
