LOCAL WEATHER REPORT.
February Found to Be the Coldes,
Month for Eighteen Years.

The report Of II. Il. Paine, the local
weather observer, has forwarded to
the department at Washington is eX-
ceedingly interesting inasmuch as he
states that in this region the month
of February was the coolest in e!gh-
teen years. MIR. Paine, i'm going over
his records for previous years, Us .nr-
tanned this fact.
During last month no less than
twenty-four inches Of snow fell. The
average mean temperature was 22G,
and comparing it with February Of
last year the temperature was $50
lower. The snow fall for February Of
last year was 10 inches, an ordinary
amount but this year that month had
| nearly double and half as much.
The total amount of precipitation
meaning rain and melted snow, was
S.33 inches. The prevailing winds
We're from the Southwest. There was
| only six clear days seven partly cloudy
| and fifteen cloudy.

happened. w. II. Small and j. A.
Leahy Immediately started on an in
vestigating trip. Knowing that all
Cinnamon we're not as honest as Tom
Tong, Mr.. Small went TO the other
restaurants. At the one owned by

found a couple Of hObos eating. A

tatOcs, which Crazy Horse had bought
for six bits a sack. Mr.. Small held
up the hobos with an iron weight and
made Crazy Horse go after an officer,

rich in zinc, bronzes containing little zinc, bronzes containing no zine, pure aluminium bronzes and bronzes contain ing aluminium and zinc or zinc and iron. The latter showed the greatest resist ance to the corrosive powers of the sea water, being practically untouched af- ter two years immersion. The alloys containing zinc, however, gave much less favorable results Thhe copper-tin alloys and the copper aluminium alloys and the iron- -bronzes resisted perfectly when immersed in sea water in contact with iron. The bronzes containing iron, when placed in contact with those of tin, showed a loss by corrosion. The conclusion reached in these experiments is that in order to prevent corrosion these alloys should not be placed in contact with metals electro-p -posotiye to them.
