Warm Gales OF Switzerland.

Most people have heard Of the Foehn
wind Of SwitZerland-that warm. dry
gale which comes over the mountains
and in spring will melt two feet Of
snow in day. It's cause is most Pc
culiar. The Foehn comes from the
south. AS it strikes the Alps it is wet,
Hike most gales which have crossed the
sea, but the south face Of the noun
tains receives its rains, and as it
crosses the SUBMITS it Is dry. The
moving air current is ALSO compressed
and therefore Dramatically heated. AS
1t falls into the northern valleys in a
cataract Of air it gains heat at the rate
Of half degree for every hundred feet
OF descent. 1t usually blows for two
or three days, causing great suffering
by its dry heat and oppression. While
1t lasts the temperature is about 80
degrees above the average. - Chicago

Tor grindstone that has lost its even
ness Is to place fat iron bar with

such a manner that 1t will strike the

regained. It Is necessary that stone
should be kept wet when in use or 1t

JUDGES WIFE FINED
SOUTH ORANGE WOMAN HAD
TREES TRIMMED.
Her Gardener Violated a Village ordi-
nance, of Which She Was Ignorant,
and It Cost Her $40.

Mrs. w. d. Cornish, Of 10 Irving avenue,
South Orange, ordered her gardener, Car
Freiss, to trim the shade trees in front OF
her residence yesterday afternoon. In
which she takes great pride, having SET
them out herself many years ago, and this
morning paid $40 to Police Justice j. Martin
Roll In the South Orange Police Court as
a fine for the offense.
A village ordinance provides that house
holders must first get permission from the
village Shade Tree Commission before
trimming trees in front Of their property.
Mrs. Cornish stated to the court that she
was not aware of such an ordinance and
asked Justice Roll to provide her with a
copy. of 1t. The judge told her that she
could get a copy of the ordinances at the
Village Hall, but to satisfy her he read the
ordinance which her gardener had violated,
at her direction.
Mrs. Cornish, who Is a well-to-do woman
and whose husband is a New York Judge.
told the court that she had had the trees
planted in front of her home and thought
she had a right to keep them In trim.
The Village Shade Tree Commission, as
q rule, has men go over the trees in the
t"horoughtares once a year, but II seems
that the men a not reached irving ave-
nue. as vet. and Mrs. Cornish took the mat
ter into her own hands.
Policeman Michael Lally, at the hearing,
said he had warned Freiss that he was
violating the Village ordinance. but Mrs.
Cornish ordered him TO continue trimming
the trees. and Lally then arrested he
man.
He was given a hearing this morning,
pleaded guilty. and Mrs. Cornish, saying
she was responsible for the mans action,
paid the fine.
After the hearing Police Justice Roll
said he expected that Mrs. CorniSh's hus-
band. being a lawyer. would appeal the
case. but that Ii was up to him to see that
the Village ordinances were carried out.
