The weather yesterday was the most summery
for midwinter experienced in this city IN
many a year. The populace deserted gloomy
interiors and basked in the warm sunshine in
the parks and squares. The Overcoat was
burden and the mercury went a-soaring.
The windows of tenements were thrown open
and out IN the crowded streets and in the parks
women were wheeling baby carriages All over
the city and along Long Island Sound the day
had the appearance of early spring. Toward
evening there a thunderstorm at Bath
Beach and Bay Ridge. and about midnight there
was a heavy downpour Of rain in the city. The
Weather Man says there will be rain to-
day and colder weather.
The mild character OF the recent weather, how
ever. has had Ill effects in many ways. Grip and
diphtheria are prevalent throughout the city and
the number OF cases OF pneumonia is increasing
daily. The change in the temperature predicted
