Is usually accompanied by fair weather; 'low''
refers low pressure, and is usually preceded and
accompanied by cloudy weather and rains. Lows"
usually first appear the Washington coast.
When the pressure is high in the interior and low

south along the coast, rain Is probable: but when
the low is nclosed with isobars of marked curva
ture rain south of oregon is improbable. With =
'high'' in the vicinity of Idaho, and the pressure
falling to the California coast, warmer weather may
be expected in summer and colder weather in win
ter. The reverse of these conditions will produce

VIII Keep Its Floating Elephant While

One of the questions to bs acted upon
this evening by City Council will be that
Of the acceptance OF the old Raymond
free bath house. A COMMITTEES consist
ing of Messrs Watson, McNulty and
Smith examined ths building = few days
ago snd while they said nothing for
publication it was understood that the
free bath association will retain It's
house. 1t will cost in the neighborhood
Of $500 to put the building In shape. and
by the time that is done Ice will be
trumps.
The committee fAvors the building Of
permanent baths. two on the Christians
and two on the Brandywine, and believes
that stone fer the purpose could be OBJ
tained from the Street and Sewer Ds.
partment. as taken from streets to be
paved MIR. Watson fsvors the building
Of permanent baths, and. In the mean
time, the allowing OF bathing In both
rivers with watchers to guard against
accidents.
The report Of the committee will be
adverse to accepting tho bath house, and
the ungsinly hulk will probably bs
