FEBRUARY WEATHER
 FULL OF CHANGES
One Day Shows Temperature Variation of 37 Degrees
 Mean Temperature 24.5.
Observer Jennings Finds Cold est Day In Seven Years
 Heavy Snow Fall.

February was a, month of eccentrici- ties, part being one of the coldest periods in years, and another period much warmer than the average. There was a lack Of rainfall which was made up during the first few days of the present month. According to the dg- ures tab1Iated by William Jennings the cooperative meteorological ob- server for the United States govern nent at Bridgeport, the maximum temperature for the month was 57 de- grees. which was reached on February 4. The nninimum was 6 below zero, which was recorded on the 12th.
 A careful analysis of the records by MT. Jennings eiscloses that the mean ternperature for 42 years is 2S degrees, the mean for the month being 24.5 or 3.5 degrees lower than normal. The low mark reached by the instruments last month was the lowest since 1907, when 1t was below. In 1889, the year following the great blizzard. the ther- nou1eter reached below The great est daily range upon the mercury scale. however, was 37 degrees, which probably accounts for the many colds that were in evidence during the past thirty days. This sudden change oc- cHrred on the 26th of tine month.
 Rainfall during the month was 2.s1 inches the greatest in any period of 24 hours being observed on the 14th when 1s4 inches tell. There was faA of 13.S inches of snow, with six inches left upon the ground at the end of the month.
 There were 12 clean, days during the month, Il partly cloudy and when the sky was overcast. The prevailing direction of the wind during the pe- riod was northwest. Sleet fell on the 9th, 14th and 18th. The highest baron- eter reading was 90. 75 with the lowest at 2912 which was followed a few days later this month with a drop be- low 2s, an unusually low pressure.

HaTHQBAkE IS FELT
: .. M Valley ISLAND

On Sunday night last at seven min.
ptes past eight o'clock a severe shock
of earthquake was felt in WailulSu. The
tremor appeared to come from the north
and travelled toward the south. II
lasted for about six seconds. Two
shakes were felt at an interval Of a
second or two, says the Maui News.
The earthquake was the most severe
felt on Maui for along time, and there
were many eonjectures as to where the
tronble originated. Some people thought
that either Kilauea or MaunR Loa had
broken out afresh. However, dispatches
from Washington show that the seismo-
graph recorded a severe shock there.
1t is now surInised that there has
been a big eruption in some isolated
place and that, later on, news will
come of the outbreak. People in Ha.
waii do not feel nervous as they know
Kilauea is "a, safety valve.
