Weather conditions and general forecast
The cold wave has reached New England
with marked severity, the temperatures
ranging from zero at Cape Cod to 16 de-
grees below on the eastern Maine coast and
lower in the interior.
Temperatures from degrees to II below
zero also prevail in the interior Of eastern
New York. In the remainder of the At
laRtic states there has also been a consider
able fall in temperature, but not nearly SO
marked as in the northeast. From the CEN
trail valleys westward there has been
rapid and decided rise, the changes ranging
from 10 degrees to 80 degrees. This great
rise is due to the rapid advance of a low
pressure area from the northwest, which
as yet has not caused any precipitation east
of the Rocky mountains.
Snow continued in the vicinity of the
lower lakes and locally in the upper lake
region.
There were also showers IN the west quiz
states and rains over the northern districts
west of the Rocky mountains as well as in
northern California.
The weather will be generally fair 20
night and Wednesday in the east and south,
except in the gulf states where showers are
probable.
1t will continue cold in the middle Attain
tic states, though not quite so cold We'd
nesday. In the lower lake region and the
southern states temperatures will rise
slowly.
On the middle Atlantic coast the winds
will be variable, becoming easterly; on the
south Atlantic coast light to fresh north to
northeast; on the east gulf coast light 20
fresh east and on the lower lakes variable.
becoming southerly and fresh.
Steamers departing today for European
ports will have fresh west to northwest
winds, becoming variable with fair, Geld
weather to the Grand Banks.

PHOSPHORESCENT OCEAN.
Little GcIatinous Organisms Which
Cseate the Appearance.

4 milky 2paIescence, permeating the
entire sea for immense distances bound
ed only by the horizon is a somewhat
rare phenomenon. 1t appears quite
suddenly, lasts perhaps for several
hours and passes away as rapidly as it
came, and this without apparent cause.
At midnight we had the singular white
ness envelOping the sea. while the more
brilliant kinds Of phosphorescence
shone in the midst Of flashing green,
yellow or blush lights, as the case
might be-a gorgeous nocturnal dis
play.
During these hours my surface trawl
net drifted aStern of the ship. The Wa
ter was alive with countless myriads of
little gelatinous sacs measuring one
sixth Of an inch in length-delicate tu-
nicate organisms which required the
aid of a microscope to reveal their per-
feet structure. 4 few specimens placed
in an empty meat tin in q darkened
cabin could be seen indeed with the
naked eyes careening madly around
in the salt water, each one glowing
with that peculiar Opalescent light
which saturated the entire sea for SO
many miles. 1t was small species of
saIpa, nearly related to much larger
| kind on the side of which the late
Professor NoseIey wrote his name with
his finger, the signature being visible

to place the presidents car, or any
other special car for that matter in the

An Enst Indian Amulet.

In India a variety of gems and stones
are used as amulets. The most com
mon is the saIagrama, stone about as
large as a billiard ball and which is
perforated with black. This is sup
posed to be found only in Gandaki, a
river in NepauI. The person who pos
sesses one of these stones is esteemed
highly Fortunate He preserves it in 4
clean cloth, from whence it is some
times taken to be bathed and perfum-
ed. He believes that the water in
which it is washed, if drunk, has the
power to preserve from sin. Holding
it in his hand, the dying Hindoo ex-
pires in peace, trusting in a stone rath-
er than in the living God.
