 2s.s.
 There were two days on which the | mercury dropped to zero, Feb. 10 and 1 II. The warmest day of all was the l 22d, when the mercury reached 5S de- grees, and strangely enough this tenn
 perature occurred at a. m.
 ! This was not the only accentricity i of that date. For during the height [ of tht storm the barometer dropped to 2S.87, the lowest pressure on MT Jennings records It was during this storm that the easterly gale reached velocity of from 45 to 50 miles per hour herea bouts, 54 miles at Hartford, 50 at tNew Haven and as high as servatories in New York. The storm of Feb. P brought the greatest daily range in temperature. 27 degrees, while on the Fist there was the least range, g degrees. Tn rainfall the month was about two
 inches short, with a total of 232 in-
 ches. Feb. q showed the greatest
 fall, LOS inches. There was only an
 inch Of snow fall with no snow left
 at the end of the month. There were
 go clear, six partly cloudy and three
 cloudy days and six days that brought
 01 inch Or more of rainfall. On Feb.
 26 there was recorded a thunder storm
 and on the same date a hailstorm. The prevailing wind direction for the
 month was west.
 MT. Jennings found on peering through his old records that the warm est February day on record for 40 years was 67 degrees, and the coldest II below zero.

leaving when he started for the

"Oh, it's great: you bet I won't

LINER OLYMPIC RUNS
AGROUND NEAR ELLIS

(By United Press Leased Wire. }
NEW YORK, July 6.-The
great White Star liner Olympic
went aground in the upper bay
near Ellis island this afternoon
when forced to change her course
to avoid running down the steam
yacht Viking.
The liner grounded at flood
tide, but was not in a dangerous
position. The bottom where the
Olympic struck is mud and not
rock. Tugs were sent. to her as
sistance and an effort made to
move her back into the channel.
Unless the big liner is floated
within a short time 1t will prob
ably be impossible to get her off
on the next flood tide, which will
be at midnight. Because she
grounded at high tide there was a
distinct possibility that part of her
cargo might have to be lightered
before she could be floated.
