WINDY CITY rs
RIGHTLY NAMED
Opprobrious Tile Justified by Reports
just Compiled BY Weather
Bureau.

CHICAGO, March 13.-(Special)-
The opErobriOus title of Windy City,
is justified by figures just compiled by
the government weather experts here,
which show a higher average velocity
of the wind in Chicago than in any
pther city in the country where the
government has an observation sta
ton. These figures fix the average rate
per year for Chicago at a little over 16
miles an hour. more than five miles an
hour faster than the next highest city
on the list, which is Boston, whose ia.
nous least winds" give it an average
Of only II miles an hour. SIX other
cities and towns in various parts of
the United States fall in the same
class with Boston, namely Buffalo, N.
Y, Rochester, N. Y, Dodge City, Kan.
st. Louis, Mo, Havre, Mont, and Abb
lene. Texas. The lowest average re-
corded is Spokane. Wash. with four
miles an hour, which is technically
classed by the weather experts as a
gentle breeze" Other cities range
between the two extremes, with a tend
cy towards a h CHER figure in the case
of the larger cities. This is partly
due to the fact, local fOrecasters say,
that the weather stations in the big
cities are usually situated on high
buildings and skyscrapers, where the
gales sweep more ffercely, and this
may account somewhat fer the un-
usual record made by Chicago. where
the recording instruments are placed
on the top of the federal building, sew
eral hundred feet from the. ground.
The highest wind ever recorded at any
city, however, is credited to St. Paul,
where the instruments once registered
a velocity of 102 miles an hour for five
consecutive minutes-a rate of speed
which would enable an airship to cover
the distance between New York and
San Francisco in something under 80
hours

CINCINNATI TO HAVE
BASEBALL AT NIGH {.
New Scheme Will Be Tried April u
When White Sox and Reds Meet
In After Supper Game.

CINCINNATI March 1S-Night
baseball is going to get thorough trial
in Cincinnati, according to the present
plans of Frank Bancroft, Bancroft has
been Informed by Inventor Cahlll, the
man who got up the scheme Of playing
the national game by artificial hght'
that he will have his plant at League
park ready for operation WITHIN SIX
weeks The old war-horse, who never
misses a chance to get to the front OF
the procession when anything new and
modern comes along, at once scheduled
game between the White SoN anu
the Red Colts for the evening OF sun
dav. April IL. The Sox play the REQ
regulars in the afternoon and Bancroft
is sure that Comiskey will enter into
the plan for testing the value OF the
lighting plant for baseball purposes
This will be the first opportunity
given the fans of any city in the world
to witness a game played after sunset.
After a confab with the inventor
Bancroft. who has been rather DOUBT
full about the success of the schene'
came 10 the conclusion that there may
be something in it, after all. AL any
rate. he is willing to give it good
trial. Mr.. Cahill is extremely enthusi-
astic about the plan. He has secured
permission to erect two more ngnt
towers, one just outside the le1t neio
fence and the other in right field. rms
will make five towers in all, including
those in center field and the pair OH
the roof of the grand stand.
The inventor says that he has per
fected his apparatus to such an extent
that the light will not shine in the
eyes of the fielders enough to bother
them in their work. He has also Sc
cured more power for his lights ana
he thinks that he will really be abe
to turn night mao day.

The death of Miss Lizzie Haldeman,
daughter of Col. and Mrs. W. B. Hal
deman, of Louisville, is peculiarly sad.
She was touring Europe with her par
ents and while in Paris was taken with
what proved to be appendicitis. An
operation was performed and she died
from the effects of it. She was %
years of age and her death occurred on
the anniversary of her birth. Those
who visited Crab Orchard Springs,
where her parents spent their summers
10 or Is years ago, will remember the
bright and pretty little girl who always
responded when asked her name, "Miss
Lizzie" and every body called her so.
She grew into beautiful woman anc
was the joy of her doting parents. Their
visit to the Old World was planned for
several months yet, but they have al.
ready started on their mournful trip
home with the body of their loved one.
May the good Lord console and com.
fort them.

MORE TAXES SUGGESTED.

The president asks Congress in a
special message to incorporate in its
tariff bill a provision to tax the earn
ings Of corporations and adopt a resolu-
ton looking TO an amendment of the
constitution to permit the levying of
an income tax without interference
from the States. As both of these are
new propositions for revenue. it should
be remembered that they would not be
necessary in these piping times Of peace.
but for the criminal extravaganza of
the party in power. With the tariff
being revised upward instead Of down
ward, as Mr.. Taft explained that that
plank of the platform meant, but which
Aldrich and his co-consprators now say
1t did not mean, it seems to be the
heighth of audacity to call for other
sources Of revenue, but the profigacv
of Congress demands it and the people
60 on like dumb driven cattle, accept
ing everything that is done and raising
no protest no matter what is put upon
them. They had chance last Novem-
Der to return to an economically admin
istered government. They threw it
away and by majority vote reiterated
confidence in the G. o. P. If the ma
jority alone had to suffer for their par
tvs reckless extravaganza, it would be
all right, but unfortunately the rest Of
us poor devils get it in the neck worse
than they. Mayhap, in the sweet bye
and-bye the people will awaken to the
danger of keeping the republican party
too long in power.
