ODD WAYS OF TELLING TIME
Many New Workers Mark It's March
by the Progress of
Business.

So regular is the progress of business
in great city like this that many per-
sons mark the march of time without
referring to clock. They merely note
passing occurrences, says tie New York
Mail and Express. No matter in what
section Of the city one may live he will.
after a moments thought, recall some
daily occurrence that will acquaint him
with the time of day.
The people on Washington Heights
have for years been able to tex TO dot
when it is l / p. IN. ON week DAYS and ten
o'clock on Sunday nights by the footing
of familiar tugboat whistle. This tug
whistles for a Waterman. A cashier in
one of the biggest banks near Wan
street never looks at Trinity as he APP
proaches his office. He knows to Ger
tainty whether he is on time by the To-
cation in which he meets shoestring
peddler. If the latter be on the south
side of Pine street and Broadway the
cashier knows he is on time. Should
he be to the north of that point the
cashier is late. A woman on West
Twepty-ffth street begins to cook
breakfast every morning at the mo-
ment tina. certain police officer goes
by 1t is her way of telling time, and
the bluecoat's approach never varies
minute Along Third avenue some of
the shopleepers tell the time by sim
ply giancing at the familiar face of
some passing motorman. 1t is a most
interesting study, this telling of time
without watch or clock.

MONDAYS FIRE ALARM.
Slight Fire al North End Of water Street,
Prompt Work Of FiFemen.

There was an alarm of fire from box
50, at 1l.05. Monday forenoon. caused
by the discovery of a blaze on the roof
of the building on upper Water street
owned by the Edwards Co, and occu-
pied by c. ii. Cunningham, dealer in
hides, wool, lime, etc, and by +. o.
Ward as a carriage paint shop. The
department responded with commenda-
BILE promptness, and killed the blaze In
a very few minutes. 1t is supposed
that the fire was due to a spark from a
passing locomotive. The damage was
slight. Mr. Ward, who occupies the
second floor. had some sleighs stored in
loft above. and they We're consider
ably wet but he was not able to esti-
mate the amount Of damage done.
There was no insurance on his goods.
Mr.. Cunningham suffered no loss. He
had considerable hay and straw in
bales at the rear end of his store, but
this was moved to a place of safety be-
fore the water came down upon it. The
all out signal sounded at 11.20. 1t was
a narrow escape from a serious fire
for there are several frame buildings
in the immediate vicinity. and a strong
wind was blowing from the South. and
the fact that the fire was stopped
where it was was due to the prompt
action of the flremen.

DOG-DAYS ARE HERE.
Queer Supersiiiions Connected With Their
Advent-Their History.

Dog days. sweltering, sultry. sticky
and suffocating are here; they COM
menced, according to the Old Farmers
almanac, the authority on such mat
| tiers, on Wednesday, July %, and if the
calendar is correct will continue until
| September 5; there is no more unsatis-
| factory season in the whole year than
this period, owing to the unsettled con-
diton of the weather and the general
disregard by the atmospheric deities of
| the rules which at other times are al
ways strictly followed.
There is no such thing as settled
weather in dOg-days. A person may go
out prepared for a summerish day in
| the morning come home to dinner in a
rainstorm. while at tea-time it may be
cold enough for buffalo coat Though
occasionally touch of GOODNESS is en-
! joyed. the ordinary dog-day is one of
great oppressiveness with climate
that Wits collars and persons with
equal success.
| Dozens of superstitions are in force.
which some people always observe dur
| ing dog-days. One of these Oldtime
! sayings is that dogs take this season
| of the year to go mad and children and
| elders alike are warned by these be-
levers in signs to keep afar from
CANNES of all kinds. especially if the
animals are breathing with their
tongues out.
Another superstition. believed in es-
pecially by New England people, is
that swimming during dog days is sure
/ to be attended with great peril. A
II -. 10 Ja wifi HI. NM a nd ca &
that to sleep with Luna sending her
rays into your face during this season
is sure to produce madness sooner or
later.
| Though they may not believe in any
of the superstitions and may not be
annoyed excessively by the changeable
and sultry weather. most people are
glad when the worst of the dog-day
season is over.
! The Canicular days. so-called. in ref
erence to the rings in ancient times of
| the dog star (Sirius) with the sun have
been variOusly placed by almanac
makers between the early part of July
and the early part of September.
| The ancients regarded the conjunc-
f! ton of the rising of the dog star with
the rising of the sun as one of the
causes of the sutry heat of summer
and the prevalent maladies.
The reason for the variation by as
tronomers is caused by the fact that
the conjunction does not occur at the
same time in all ATTITUDES and is not
constant in the same region for long
period In an ancient calendar the be-
ginning of dog-days is placed en- July
IA. In Queen E;lizabeth's times they
were said to begin on July 6. and end
on September 5.
From the Restoration 166W to the
beginning of New Style. 1752) the
British almanac included the period
between July 10 and August 90. After
1852 the beginning was put on July 80
and the end on Sept. Z.
Some English calendars now put the
beginning on July 3, and the ending
August II, but in that standard Amer
lean guide. the Old Farmers almanac.
the dog-day period is placed between
July % and September 5.
