Warm weather unaccompanied by

the South. Monday night will be cold,
but not windy. Tuesday will be fair,
warm ard MINDLESS, according 20
Forecaster VonHerrmann.
Contrary TO precedent. the warm

normally frozen Northwest. 1t was 26
degrees warmer at Devils Lake, y.

Lowest March 2 on Record.
The heavy winds and freezing
weather that caused so much suffer
ing to the Souths poor and played
havoc with telephone and telegraph
service were occasioned by a storm
that formed just off Cape Hatteras,
swent into the land and through the
South to New York, where It is CEN
tered Monday.
The lowest temperature on record
for March . in Atlanta was registered
when the thermometer read Is de-
grees above zero at and a. m,
Monday. The nearest approach to
this low temperature record was on
March Z, 1899, when the thermometer
registered s degrees above zero. The
coolest March 2 ever recorded here
tofore in Atlanta was II degrees
above zero in 1890.
II was showing and the thermome-
ter registered only 3 degrees above
zero at Asheville, n c., Monday
morning. A killing frost struck Flor
ida above Jacksonville.
So. Mile Gale.
The wind was not quite SO ferocious
as on Sunday afternoon, when tele-
phone and telegraph wires and troll
lev lines were torn from the posts by
a. gale that reached SO miles an hour.
The street car service was badly Grip
pied on q number of lines. The wind
moderated slightly during the night,
but Monday morning it was whoopirS
savagely around the corners and max

Had to Fight Wind.
There was much suffering in At
lanta-far more than there has been
in any other cold snap of the winter.
For one thing, It was colder by nearly
four degrees. For another, the terrific
wind drove the cold air into the best
built houses and whistled through the

Fortunately for Atlanta, the fury
Of the elements burst in its full force
on Sunday, when It was not necessary
for many persons to be exposed. True,
a couple Of thousand persons who at.
tended the organ recital at the Au-

praise Of the commerce destroying
career Of the German cruiser Emden
and they declare that her final de-

The Emden was driven ashore on the

Capt. Carl Won Muller, the commander
Of the Emden.
Major Moraht. the military critic,
writes in the Tagebaltt:
There has been no question that the
career Of the Emden was bound to
come to an end before long. The
British admiralty would have lost the
confidence of the nation unless It final
ly succeeded in destroying her. In
view of the great difference in the
fighting power Of the Emden and that
of the Sydney It is no wonder she
suffered severely. Her career has been
