WEATHER CONDITIONS.

The northern storm has moved from
the northwestern portion of the lake
region to the st. Lawrence valley and
has caused showers in the Ohio, upper
Mississippi and lower Missouri valleys,
the southern portion of the lake re-
gion and on the Atlantic coast Rela-
lively low pressures still prevail in
the southern plateau states, accompan-
led by showery weather from Utah
and Arizona eastward to Kansas. The
northwestern area of high pressure
and fair weather overlies the territory
from the northern Rocky mountain
states to the upper lakes, with the
highest barometers in the valley of the
Red river of the north, and the at.
tendant cooler temperatures have eX
tended to the upper Mississippi val

Century AGO.

Rules That Used to se In Force Half
Century Ago.
curious relic of railroad operation
some fifty years ago in Tennessee and
Georgia IS exhibited i'll the following
extracts from the rules then in force:
Each engineman will keep watch.
which must be regulated by the time of
bis conductor at the commencement OF
each trip and will always have in his
possession the current schedule book.
Should any stock be killed which
may be likely to endanGer the safety
of the next train passing. the engine
man will stop his train until track IL
cleared.
AS n general rule. when trains meet
between stations the train nearest the
turnout will run back. ANY dispute
as TO which train has to retire is to be
determined at once by the conductors
without any interference on the part
of the enCinemen. This rule is re-
CURED TO be varied in favor of heaviest
loaded engine or the worst grades. If
they meet near the center. ~ case Of
backing. a man must be placed on the
lookout. so that any danger TO the rear
most part of the train may be seen and
the engineman at Once receive notice.
The backing must be done cautiously

LAURIUM
SIGNAL HONOR
FOR ]. I. FISHER
SELECTED AS ONE OF SER
GEANTS- S-AT-ARMS FOR THE
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL
CONVENTION.

James II. Fisher Of Laurium was
yesterday notified by j. w. Blodgett
of Grand Rapids. Republican national
committeeman for Michigan, of his ap-
pointment as honorary sergeant-at-
arms for the Republican national con-
Vention i'm Chicago on June rs. Mr.
lrisher is instructed to present HIM
self at headquarters on Mouday, May
L. To receive the badge designating
his rank. Mr.. Blodgett advised Mr.
Fisher that his selection was at the
suggestion of J. II. Rice of Houghton,
who is one of the delegates from the
Twelfth Congressional district Mr..
1Nishcr has never before been so sig
nally honored by his party. despite The
fact he has been an active Republican
worker for many years. 1t is much
appreciated by his friends.
While ordinarily the position Of SER
Reant-at- arms at a convention of this
kind is not an arduous one, ii is pos
sible the reverse will be the case at
the Chicago convention because of the
bitter rivalry between the contending
forces for the Republican presidential
nomination. There are about 500 ser
Roants-at- -arms. and in this capacity.
Mr.. Fisher will enjoy even more hb-
erty at the convention than the dele
gates themselves.
James Il. McGregor of Detroit, who
will be i'm charge of the Michigan
4
assistant to National Committeeman
Blodgett. has assisted all the Michi-
gan national committeeman in this
manner for 2S years.
The frs convention that he attend
ed WAS the one that resulted i'm the
nomination of James A. Garfield when
Grant was a candidate for a third
term and during the intervening years
the national committeeman he has
worked under included jay Hubbell OF
Houghton; Geo. l.. Maltz of Alpena
VIM. II. Elliott of Detroit and Mr.
Blodgett.
Most of the national committeeman
COR Michigan have held the post foI
four years only but Mr.. Blodgett, who
is now retiring from the place, has
been in office 10 years. His successor
will he chosen by the Michigan delega-
tion to the national convention. Fred
NJ. Algcr has been i'm the field as a
candidate for some time and more
recently the name of Attorney Chas
II. Warren of Detroit. has been men
toned.
June must be a lucky day for Mr.
Fisher, for IL was on that date JUST
twenty years ago yesterday that he led

versarv was celebrated very informal
