AS to color, correspondent reminds us
that the late Grant Allen maintained in
an Essay on the Color Sense that only
eight colors are recognized by the pop

yellow. gray and brown. Educated peo-
pie speak of scarlet, crimson. lilac and
purple only under exceptional circum-
stances. In a prosaic hour Grant Allen
went through Poems and Ballads on the
quest for color. and found that Swinburne
used the word red 151 times, rosy and
crimson once each, and sanguine. rudy
and scarlet twice each. Gold Is men,

twelve hours after the storm center
had passed eastward. No forecaster
could foresee this. Were we to fore
cast a fall of snow following the
passage of storm centers that move
from the northwest, we would have
hundreds of failures charged against
us, instead of an occasional one, for
it is rare that snow falls in the mid
die Atlantic states except with the
approach of storm from the south
west, which causes northeast winds,
and it is extremely rare that any
storm in this region that begins with
rain ends with snow of any consid-
cradle amount. On the contrary,
many storms begin as snow end as
rain.
The forecast in question was made
by one of the most experienced fore
casters of the bureau and was con-
Cured in by all of the forecasters
who were conversa,-s with the condi-
tions, and the same forecast would
be made today if similar conditions
existed
The forecasters of the Unite!
States bureau are the equals, if not
the superiors. of any others in the
world, and their predictions of frosts,
cold waves, floods, and marine
storms, although subject to error in
the proportion of about one to ten.
are of such values to the industries
of the nation that if one of the news
papers that now so freely criticise
because two unverified forecasts for
the District of Columbia have fallen

from its pages the daily predictions
of the weather it's readers would COM
pei it to restore them, and if the de-
partment or congress were to close a

the United States the property inter-
ests would demand it's restoration.
This would not be the case if the
hysterical abuse that is now being in

WEATHEE BUREAU
Tells why The
STORM March 4

1t is not usual to answer criticisms
of the forecasts of the weather bur-
eau. but the hundreds of press clip
pings that have been received since
March 4 containing adverse critic
isms of the bureau seems to call for
this statement for me.
Forecasts of the weather bureau
are before the public every day in
the year. In the past about one pre-
diction out of each ten failed to be
verified. and 1t may be expected that
the same ratio of failure will be
maintained until meteorology can be
made, what II Is no. now. an exact
science.
In the case OF the storm that visit
ed Washington on the fourth OF
March last. the fact Is that the dis.
turhance began here on the morning
OF the third. and was acuratc fore
cassed the day before. The bureau
anticipated that the storm would

United States is greater than the foreign commerce of all nations con- bined. This means, in brief, that the great bulk of the most tremendous burden in the world of trade and commerce falls upon the railroads of this country.
 In view of these facts, and of the further fact that dcmagogic polite ians have taken advantage Of the poD- ular prejudice against corporations to harass and cripple the railroads until their credit is seriously impaired and they can hardly maintain their pres- ent equipment, much less make the extensive improvements and better ments which the neels of shippers in all parts of the country require, the resolution adopted by the business men of St. Louis Is most appropriate and timely.

Grapewin with the largest the- ater party of the season, as guests of the Pine Bluff Clearing House Asso- citation. The Awakening of MT. Pipp" Is good enough to cure the mumps and there are many cases in Pine Bluff just now. The play Is overfowing with genuine comedy something different from the average efforts of comedians; the kind that the men cannot help but enjoy and the women, although inexperienced in the art of "spreeing," ought to relish. The scenic inveatiture and costume grandeur employed in rounding out an of merit was striking ly a feature of tho performance. To- wards these ends MT. Grapewin has spared neither pains nor money in the establishment of his stake plans, paying special attention to tho gowns of the ladies. which include some rav- ishing creations in touch with the pre- vailing Empire and Dtrectoire fash ions.
 The original musical numbers were all we'll rendered and the chorus woTh was exceptionally strong. The Waltz O. Joy" is dance innovation that had to be repeated several timeI o' night.
