SUMNER WEATHER IN FEBRUARY.

A Cold Wave Following the Heated
Spell to Arrive Eere Tomorrow.
The weather yesterday was somewhat
varied. The morning was as plea amt and
fair as could be desired, and many COM
ments were made upon the beautiful day.
The afternoon was hot and sultry, almost
to suffocation. The temperature rose to II,
summer heat almost. The mean for the
day was 15' above the normal.
At dark rain began to fall, and by s
O'Clock it was pouring down rapidly. Half
an inch of rain fell by 10 o'clock. The rain
cleared of the atmosphere somewhat.
The cold wave signal was hoisted over the
postoftics early in the afternoon by order
OF the following telegram, received from
Washington at f2:15
Hoist cold wave signal. Temperature will
fall to 81 by p. m. Feb. 2.
The reports received at the signal office
last night showed the cold wave to be pre-
vailing over the northwestern states with
great severity. Minnesota, the two Dakotas
and Montana reported temperatures at 8
O'Clock at 22e below zero
The cold wave is not of any great extent.
Omaha, the farthess point south materially
affected reported q below zero. The weather
throughout all the southern states and all
the northern states east of the Mississippi
was very warm for the season.
The movement of the cold wave Is over
the northern states and the, southern states

Signal Observer benson said last night that
he dad not think the full force of the wave
will reach here until tomorrow morning,
by which time the temperature will prob

RAIL AND CaOsSTIE.

The Railroad Commission of Georgia pub
lish elsewhere In this issue circular No. 1873.
Tho highest average speed attained by a
locomotive in America is on the Michigan
Central railroad, where tho average running
speed is 4519 miles per hour. This is the
world. England comes second with Al miles
per hour; France third, 40 miles; Ger
many fourth, 3SH miles; Russia fifth, 81
miles; Austria sixth, 81 miles; Italy seventh,
10 miles.
The present mileage of the Savannah,
Americus and Montgomery railway in
operation from the Ohattahoochee river to
Lyons, the present western terminus of the
Eden extension OF the Central railroad, is
1870 miles. The road is now being extended
from Chattahoochee river, the present
western terminus, to Montgomery, Ala,
distance of eighty miles. OF this, twenty
miles Of track have been laid, and it is ex-
pected that the entire line will be completed
by the time the steel drawbridge across the
Chattahooohee river, now under construc-
ton, Is completed, which will be about
July. The mileage OF the Savannah,
Americus and Montgomery in operation
during 1SS9-90, from Louvale to Helena
was 155 miles. The mileage in operation
during lS90-9l, Lsuvale to Lyons, was IT'S
miles
If people were willing to content them
selves with few trains which run at in
convenient hours aud at slow rates of speed,
says the Financial Chronicle. they could
have them cheaply. This is seen in Hun
gary. 1t is seen to an even more marked
extent in British India. In that couutry
the rates for passengers are very little over
ene-han cent mile, but even in thickly
settled districts of India there are not.
as a rule, more than two trains each
way per day. People have to travel
at the time whica suits the rail-
road company; and since they
are willing 10 do SO rather than pay G few
cents extra, the company can obtain loads
of 800 and 400 passengers in train. and
naturally enough can afford to carry them
at very cheap rates. What is true of India
is true to n somewhat less extent Of Hun
gary. stiff1assso fQSsrmany or France, and

Yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock a

Superstitions Attached to the Second

Superstitions Attached TO the Second
of February.
To-day Is Candlenas day, church fes-
tival observed from a very early. indeed an
unknown. date in christian history, as the
feast of the publication OF the virgin Mary.
From the coincidence Of the time with that
of the Februation, or publication of the peo-
pie in Pagan Rome, some consider this as
q christian festival engrafted upon a
heather one in order 10 take advantage OF
the established habits Of the people.
The popular name, Candlemas, is derived
from the ceremony which the Roman
Catholic church dictates to be observed on
that day; a blessing OF the candles by the
clergy and distribution Of them among
the people. The services at the Cathedral
will take place this morning at the early
service.

the publication Of the Virgin Mary, and

what Simeon said when he took the infant

Candlemas day for 50 many ages. 1t is scarce

Gates a long continuance Of winter and bad

What He Has to Say About tn
Weather for February.

What He Has to Say About the
Weather for February.
Rev. Irl r. Hicks, the st. Louis weather
prophet. has this 10 say for February's
weather:
The general storm movements organizing
during the last two days of January will
grow ia violence as they sweep eastward,
reaching their worst between the LIST and
Sd, inclusive. On the last day Of January
Mercury passes the disturbing point, com
bining on the same day with q regular
Vulcan period, and on Feb. with
a disturbing moon phase. A warm
wave. developing transforms and attended
by electrical phenomenan, is sure 70 result.
On the south side OF the storm areas,
dangerous storms need not SURPRISE while
to the north destructive sleet and snow
billiards. are apt to result. Prepare for the
period 10 end In one of the most general
and bitter cold waves Of the winter. The
wires will suffer wofully during the per-
turbations of this period. Mark our warn
ing for heavy slses. The cold will gamer
ally relax and mean local storminess will
follow on the resctionary 9th aud 7th.
The 18th is the central day OF the next
regular storm period. This period will be-
gin to feel severely the disturbing power Of
the growing Venus perturbation. Very
warm weather-enormous rainfalls with
thunder and lightning in many places,
turning to snow. aud followed at the close
by extreme cold, will be the natural order
for this period. We name the 18th, 18th
and 14th as the days OF greatest
activity and danger. The extreme
east may not feel the full force
before the 18th Phenomenal huctua-
tons of temperature-warm here and
zero yonder-with astonishingly rapid
changes will characterize all the disturb
ances during the remainder of the month.
Low lands and narrow, gorged water chan
nels are apt to be suddenly and dangerously
flooded Regions TO the northward will
have heavy SHOWS and billiards, with
extreme and sudden drops Of the mercury
that will call for prudent vigilance. On
and next to the 18th higher temperature
and reactionary storms will be due.
Venus Is at the center of her disturbing
period on the 18th, about the same day as
Vulcan disturbances will reach the central
parts of this continent, with moon at its full
on the ed, Vulcan's central day. At this
time the earth's vernal equiaox also
will begia TO send its electric, equatorial
currents northward to battle with Boreas.
Therefore, the period running from about
the 22d TO 18th, inclusive, IL one that will
bear watching.
