Tourists in the Austrian Tyrol and the
remoter regions of the Swiss Alps Of
ten come across strange peculiarities Of
dress, especially among the females in
those out of the way places. In the
little village of Champery, which nes
ties almost under the frowning Dent
du Midi, the women dress like men and
may often be seen In the fields. Nat
urally they are objects of much inter
est TO tourists, but the women do not
seem to be at all uncomfortably con-
scious of the popularity of their garb.
The peasants of Champery are a sim
pie, kindly folk, and doubtless find this
novel dress more accommodating to the
hard work they have to do.

OUR FIRST HUNT CLUB.
"a Was Organized In Pennsylvania
Away Back In 1708.

The year 1766 is far back, but it is
interesting to think that the mutter-
lngs of the coming war storm were not
yet - engrosslng even then but that
the sportsmen of Pennsylvania could
turn their attention to more system
attic organization of their fox hunting
forces and then established the first
hunt club in the country, the Glouees-
ter HOUNDS. Not that this was the be-
ginning Of the sport in Pennsylvania.
that eminently horse loving country,
for fox hunting had held a high place
in the pastimes of the people many a
year before. 1t was rather the evi-
dence that the sport had become so i'm
portant that it needed systemat1zing.
so that districts might be thoroughly
hunted in turn and contentious. rivalry
and clashing dates be avoided.
All the early fox hunting clubs had
their origin in the pre-existing owner
ship of n greater or less number OF
hounds by private owners. Every con-
siderable landowner in the south kept
them, and good dogs they were, not
always orthodox, according to the
standard of the Belvoir and the Quorn
of today, but nevertheless hounds de-
rived from the best English and Eu-
ropean stock and continued by judi
cious selection of those who showed
the instincts by conformation suitable
to the country in which they were
called upon TO work. Washington may
be quoted as one of the southerners
who kept hounds and hunted them too.
Lafayette, moreover sent him from
France a splendid pack of French fox
hounds, with qualities which still fur
ther helped to complete the most per-
feet animal for American fox hunting.
the American hound.
From the formation of the Glouces.
ter Fox Hound club in 1766 until 10
day clubs have played the most i'm
portant part in preserving the sport
and regulating its practice. Not all
clubs of equal Importance, it is true,
but all of the same spirit.-Illustrated

NEW YORK TIME.
II Is the Standard Used In All Our
Weather Bureau stations.

IL Is the Standard Used In All Our
Weather Bureau stations.
When we read a report from any of
the l60 regular weather bureau sta
tions throughout our land bringing the
information that a rainstorm, n tor
nado or some other meteorological phe-
nomenon began at certain hour we
need not suppose that the hour men,
toned refers to the time at the place
where the observation was made. The
hour given is the exact New York time,
for every clock at the regular weather
bureau stations all over the land is set
to the seyenty-fifth meridian. or east
ern standard time, which is exactly
five hours behind Greenwich time.
Only this standard of time is used
in the text of the Monthly Weather
Review, and all weather bureau OBJ
servers are required to record observa-
tons by it. The reason for this is that
the best scientific deductions from the
weather reports must be based upon
the conditions of the atmosphere exist
ing simultaneously in different parts
of the country.
1t would be very ludicrous if all the
hundreds of reports sent daily had TO
be changed at the central office In
Washington from local to eastern time.
and so all the regular observers are re-
quired TO use the New York, or eastern
time, in making their reports.
There are many volunteer observers
and newspaper correspondents who in
reporting weather phenomena use 9TH
er standards of time. II the weather
bureau has occasion TO use their re-
ports the time is often corrected to
agree with the eastern standard or the
local standard is mentioned.
