CAPES AND JACKETS

in the sky, or the intersections of two
imaginary lines, the equator and the
path OF the sun, no adequate reason
appears i0r any conse quent fleet up
on the weather Of this earth. The
day is lengthening when March 81
comes around and the night is length
ening when September II ar, lives.
These conditions are directly con-
trary to each other, and present no
reason for supposing that they pro-
duce similar effects. When the days
half minutes daily from December to
June, and decreasing proportionately
from June to December. no adequate
reason appears as to why the advent
of any particular day in this progress
sion should break the chains of Borea
and his brother winds or throw wide
the floodgates of heaven.
In the absence of any apparent rea-
son for regularly recurring storms at
the equinoctial periods, Investigations
were made to ascertain. whether there
was such a recurring storm period.
Prof. Scott, after an examination Of
the English records for fourteen years.
found that out Of forty-fve storms in
March, not one occurred on the 21st,
and out Of eighteen storms in Septem-
Der only one was on the 2lst, so in
fourteen years there was only one
rightly 80 called equinoctial storm in
Great Britain. In the United States
an elaborate series Of observations,
extending from St. Paul to New Or
leans, and New York to San Francisco,
were made. The period examined was
sixteen years. The general results
are thus summarized in Prof. Hazen's
report:
Wind was lower after the March
equinox than at it. During the Sep
tember equinox there is tendency to
decrease OF wind on the 21st. At the
autumn equinox there is nearly the
minimum amount of rain for the
month. For March the maximum
number OF storms fall on the Sth, the
next highest number on the 2lst. In
September the highest number of
storms occurred on the 9th, and almost
the minimum for the whole month on
the 2lst."
Connected with Prof. Hazen's report
Is very graphic and complete series
Of charts, showing by curves on di.
vided and numbered surface the rela.
tive force Of winds, amount Of precip
itatiOn and pressure. and other more
technical features. If q confirmed be-
lever could see the line Of storms 70,
September as shown by the records O
sixteen years, and observe how smooth
and straight it runs over all the date,
he is accustomed to connect with fu
rious rain storms. he might be induced
to pack this theory away with tn,

from weakness and refusing ice t.,

-" a peculiarity of the yellow fever
