HURRICANES AND ToRNADoss.



A New Signal Adopted by the Weather
Bureau in Washington,
Washington, July ga circular has
been issued by the weather bureau in
Washington which states that new
signal has been adopted by the depart
ment known as the hurricane signal for
the purpose of giving warning of the
approach of tropical hurricanes and eX-
tremely severe and dangerous storms
which sometimes pass across the lake
region and north Atlantic coast. 1t
consists of two red flags with black
centers, displayed one above the other,
and will be displayed at all weather
bureau offices and wind signal display
stations on the Atlantic and gulf coasts
and the Great lakes, and at numerous
other points,
Arrangements have been made with
steamship and steamboat lines to dis
play this signal on their vessels. In
sections beyond the reach of Geographic
communication along the south Atlantic
and Gulf coasts, tugs, pilot boats, reve-
nue. cutters and other steam vessels will
display the hurricane signal by day
and fire rockets by night, and blow
their whistles to attract attention there
to.
The rockets used by the bureau in
this connection will be red meteor ones,
which ascend to the height OF 300 or 400
feet and emit brilliant red star which
burns to the ground or the waters
edge.

THE CASE OF DIR. JAFFE.
DR.. James F. Jaffe, the physician re-
siding on Olive street, was arrested on
Tuesday charged with fraud in secur-
ing from Mrs. Mary Thiele the sum of
1000, which he had refused to give
back. He was Mr.. Thiele's attending
physician during his last illness. Mr..
Thiele's life was insured for $4,000 in
favor of Mrs. Thiele, and it was al
legged that after the widow secured the
money DR.. Jaffe got her to give it to
him through fraudulent representa-
lions. Subsequently Mrs. Thiele de-
manded return of the money, which
was refused, and hence the arrest.
The bond was placed at $500, which
DR.. Jaffe was unable to furnish, and
since his arrest he has remained in the
custody of a. constable
Yesterday morning Attorney Blyden-
burgh appeared before Judge Baldwin
of the supreme court and asked that
the bail be reduced. Judge Baldwin, af-
ter considering the matter, refused to
decrease the bond, but said he had
some doubt about the legality of the
| arrest and desired to hear arguments
upon that question. In the afternoon
the arguments were made, Attorney
Blydenburgh appearing DIR. Jaffe and

HONEST CITY GOVERNMENT.

Nothing could better Illustrate

American body polite than this
general awakening In favor Of hon
est city governments and progress

centers. Our city governments
have been our most conspicuous
failure and the most dangerous of
all the evils which threatened our
national life. Having finally awak-
ened to II full appreciation of the
facts as they were, the American
people are bestirring themselves to
make the cities wholesome and
good. They will not accomplish
everything by virtue ola wave of
enthusiasm, but the new movement
will not prove itself passing whim.
1t Is based upon sound principles,
and it Is supported by the deep de.
termination Of thousa ands of men
and women who are capable of per.

is a determination to bring our
American cities up to the standard

foreign achievements in municipal
organization and improvements

What a Woman Physician Thinks
About the Bicycle.

DIR. GRACE PECKHAM MURRAY.
Certainly bicycling cannot injure
any healthy young woman so long
as she does not over-eyert herself
Indeed, any sport which will keep
young women out of doors, and
give them healthful exercise so
that circulation is stimulated, is
something which should be favor
ed by everyone. AS soon as
young woman has learned to bal
ance herself and to work the pedals
without any more thought than
she would give to moving her feet
in walking, she can then cover
long distances without the slight
est injury resulting from eXeition.
The bicycle is certainly a great
boon to young women who cannot
afford horses and carriages, for
here is Il steed which they can pur-
chase at small price and keep at
Il small cost. 1t has been a source
Of new vigor to thetype- writer and
and it has given
new strength t. the school girl,
and fresh courage to the school
teacher. If there is any injury at
all to health in bicycling, ii is that
single danger which is common to
all forms Of exercise, namely, un-
trained over-eXertion. This seems
to he the trouble attendant upon
the playing Of tennis by young
women. For men, amy form of eX-
ercise, as rule, does not involve
any extra exertion; for men are
usually accustomed to constant
muscular endeavor, and are, there
fore, not Sc likely to 0ver-strain
in the same proportion as women.
Two thirds If our young women,
in the matter of muscular endeav-
er, fall far short Of what muscular
development should be. The cause
of this is undoubtedly the non
adaptability of woman's dress to
any great muscular exerti0n.
In the matter of the hygiene of
bicycle riding there is one item in
which women have the advantage
of men; for women, as a rule, take
the proper position when riding,
that is, IN upright and natural one,
while the men lean over in II most
unnatural position, which results
in almost permanently round
shoulders.-From What Are the
Benefits of Bicycling?" in Demo
rests Magazine for M0Y.
