Georgians May
Establish Their Own
Weather Bureau

Dissatisfied with the weather which
has made sunny Georgia shiver, and
with the forecasts which the branch OF
the United States Weather Bureau in
that State has issued recently, the leg
islators Of the Cracker State are likely
to establish a bureau of their own and
operate it in any way they may deem
best.
Representative Brown, of the Georgia
State Legislature, has drafted bill
for the creation of bureau, 1t be-
came known in Washington today. He
will present this at the next session of
the State Legislature and ask for its
enactment.
Ell Brooks, the south Georgia prophet,
who says he can take one peek at q
goosebone and Issue as good a weather
forecast as Prof Willis L. Moore and
all his weather experts with their SCI
entifc Instruments, is being considered
as chief of the proposed forecasting sta
ton. Representative Brown will ask
that Brooks be put In charge of the
station II his bill passes.
At the Weather Bureau this morning
1t was said no more complaints have ar
rived from Georgia regarding the
weather and the forecasts than from
any other Southern station where the
cold. wave has struck.

Matthew HarbeSOn Sentenced
for RObbing Bread Box
SON OF BRICK TRUST MAGNATE
Has Received Large Income from
Family Since He Married His
Mothers Swedish Maid

New York, Feb. 2, 1912.-All Wood
cliffe, a residential section of North
Bergen, N. j., was gossiping last
night about the arrest and sentence
to thirty days in Jail of Matthew Har
besan of les Thirty-third street on a
charge of stealing bread and rolls
The towns surprise was occasioned
by the fact that Harbeson is son OF
the late Martin Harbeson, head Of
the Brick Trust-his mother now
lives at Al East Sixty-ninth street,
Manhattn--and has received a large
income from his family ever since
his marriage to q Swedish maid in
his mothers employ estranged them
from him.
Harbeson owns his home, which he
occupies with his wife and four chill
dren and is always well supplied
with money. He has no business.
He walked into the police station
last flight and gave himself up after
learning that a summons had been
issued for him He was arraigned be
fore Recorder Medina and b. c. Cor
don, a grocer in Broadway, Wood
clffe, appeared as complainant
against him.
Gordon said that frequently he had
missed rolls and bread from his store,
and so had been keeping a sharp
watch on the bread box, which stood
by the door. Yesterday morning he
said he saw Harbeson take loaf OF
bread from the box and start to walk
off with it, He followed and Harbe-
son, he said, dropped the bread when
he saw that he was noticed
Harbeson refused to say anything
about the charge except that he
would go to Jail without protest, but
would make somebody suffer for II
when he got out.

Socialist Mayor Thinks New York
Should Be Wiped off the Map

Albany, Jan. 31.-A clash occurred
today between Mayor George X.
Lunn, Socialist, of Schenectady, and
Assemblyman Greenberg, of New
York, during a heari-g before the
Assembly Judiciary Committee on
the Walker bill limiting civil service
employment to persons who have hv-
ed in this state at least year.
Mayor Lunn opposed the BILL de-
claring that in assuming charge OF
the municipal affairs OF Schenectady
he found it necessary to go outside
the state for experienced men, be
cause the local men were mixed UP
with the contractors and politicians.
The proposed measure was favored
by Mr.. Greenberg, who said New
York was suffering from the invasion
of outsiders. He cited the appoint
ment OF Police Commissioner Bing'
ham. declaring his was the worst
administration in the history of the
city.
Mayor Lunn shouted: when you
