MAY WAS A GREAT
MONTHF0R DUCKS,
THE WETTEST YET
But Humans Didn't Enjoy the
0.Ol Inches of RainAOf Course
Sunshine Was Scarce.

Most remarkable vas the month Of
May. From observations made by Pro-
fessor William Wiener, of the local
weather bureau, the amount of ain
which fell was 9.01 inches. This was
the heaviest fall and the wettest May
in the seventeen years of the bureaus
existence, and no previous records made
by the late Judge Ricord APPROACH K.
The record is also corroborated by the
national weather bureau. The heaviest
single rainfall was on May Z, 1923 inches,
and on the sixth, seventh and eighth
the record for the three days was BIZ
inches. Next to May the heaviest fall
was on May %, when from midnight to
noon 1.63 inches was recorded. On
Decoration Day, from 8 a. m. to Z p.
M, the fall was 1.53 inches.
The percentage of sunshine was natu-
rally low, being 53.s, against an average
of So to 30. There were only three
really clear days during the month, and
it actually rained for fourteen days.
The humidity was also remarkable.

CARDINAL LOGUE
SEES IRELAND'S
FINAL TRIUMPH
Tells United League Domestic
Control Will Come Love the
American Flag" He Says.

NEW YORK, June 2.-The Catholic
Municipal Council of the United Irish
League of America. at Archbishop Far
ley's house last night, presented Car
dinal Logue with mementoes of his visit
here. The Catholic Benevolent Legion's
gift was a large American flag. Car
dinal Logue said:
Though 1 always have been proud
of my c%ountrymen 1 have never been
SO proud of them as / have since 1
came here to America. l know the re-
spect and affection that the Irish Catho-
lies have for that banner.
81 honor that glorious flag with the
highest respect and v~eneration. The
more l see of this country the more I
am deeply impressed with the great
future I see that lies before it."
The second presentation tool the
form of an Illuminated address signed
by fifty prominent members of the
United Irish League, asking the car
dinal so bring back with you to our
kith and kin the assurance that we
are with them heart and hand in their
struggle for their rights, and ever will
be till their rights are theirs to enjoy"
Cardinal Logue said: we want some
little share of that freedom which you
enjoy. We want the control of u
domestic affairs. We believe we can
manage them better than our friends
on the other side of st. Georges Chan
mel, and we are determined, by legiti-
mate means and constitutional legis-
lation. to secure them. The Irish Ma
tionalist party must be supported.
1--WE ask for autonomy for Ireland,
such autonomy as will not break up
the empire"

STATEN ISLANDS
MOSQUITO HORDES
INVADE JERSEY
"black-Leg" Variety Proof That
Pests Are Not Bred
Here.
N. Y. HEALTH OFFICERS
STATEMENT REFUTED
Local Committee on Extermina-
lion, After Battle, Claims One
Down for Evidence.

Dr. AlVah H. Doty, health officer of
the port of New York, who has charge
Vi the Quarantine station at Stapleton,
o L. declared today hat this is to be
the worst year of mosquitoes this sec
tlon has ever suffered. He also
brought on himself a peck of trouble
by declaring that Staten Island itself
bred no mosquitoes, but that all which
appeared there were of the New Jer-
sey manufacture.
Inc Newark Board of Health and
the New Jersey committee for the ex-
termination of the mosquito take vio-
lent exception to this, and submit the
proof thai while there may be one or
Two genuine Jersey mosquitoes in ex-
lstenee, nearly all which afiict New
Jersey come from the incubating
swamps of State Island.
Or. Doty, who is a little car when it
comes to admitting foreign vessels to
this port, has done a wonderful lot
or work for Staten Island, working.
spare times at draining the swamps and
III VI Ol Oh tile OI6SbllllS
water of the marshes. He contends
that he has eliminated the pest from
Staten Island.
Here is the truth to the contrary
The Staten Island mosquito Is a
black leg" He has black legs and
black and white cross striped body.
He also has a drill a mile long with
a diamond point on the end of it. The
Jersey brand has black and white
striped legs and a black body. You
can always tell the Jersey mosquito
by his jowls. They are very full--of
poison-and sag down from his cheeks,
giving him a sad expression.
The prevailing winds in the last
from Staten Island toward New Jer-
sey. If anyone has taken the pains
to observe he will recall that the mos
quito which bit him had black legs and
striped body with a long and indus
trious drill.
During a meeting of the committee
on determination a few nights ago in
the Board of Health an invading army
from Staten Island appeared and
routed the experts. These were the
genuine Staten Island variety. One
specimen was captured and chained
and is now on exhibition in captivity
at the Board of Health. He has Staten
Island written all over him. So far,
Staten Island has not captured n of
the Jersey varieties, and it is assumed
that they remain at home and attend
to their own business.
Tt. Doty ~proplesies that this is to
be the most prolific mosquito season
on record because of the heavy rains
which have filled the marshes. AS 1t
takes only six days for a mosquito to
hatch out. the rate at which they have
been multiplying may be imagined.
