New York. May 14.-Long Island
may well be considered the tennis
center Of this country with the in
creasing tennis facilities being offer
ed to followers OF the game. Twenty
five clay tennis courts are now being
built az Brighton Beach. and they will
be ready for use late this month.
Michael Honan. builder OF the famous
courts Of the West Side Tennis Club.
Forest Hills, L. l., is in charge OF the
work at Brighton Night tennis will
be a big feature in connection with
the new plant. the whole playing area
being lighted by a powerful electric
lighting system which will make the
courts as bright as day.
Nobody can take one mark OF dis
tinction away from Rube. He is prac-
tlcally the only left.handed pitcher
in the country who is not called Rube.
Thorwaald Ellegaard, the great
Danish cyclist. has sailed for Ameri.
ca. The Riverview Velodrome will
engage him for the track. Ellegaard
is accompanied by Cesar Moretti, the
Italian, and two French pacemakers,
Marius Naso and Pasquier
Eddie McGoorty has gone to Aus
tralia to collect $4,000. Knowing
that old first round left hook as we
do, we give each of his three oppon
ents ninety seconds OF going before
they take It on the chin. For 27O

As the situation now stands there
is only one affair that can drive the

and this will be injuries or accidents
linked to a slump that may brinl

If they can meet their first slump ant

The new rain month begins near
May 20 and during the ten days coy
cred By the forecasts of this bulletin
rainfall will largely decrease on this
continent. particularly north OF the
Ohio and Missouri rivers. Not so
much rain is expected in the Middle
and Western cotton States. Our
forecasts for the Southeastern States
are not complete and we have not
been forecasting for them except In
general way, but We are about
ready to take them in our work.
Il Is notable fact that We gave
the correct period for the most Sc
we're storms OF April-2l TO 2s-also
that we gave the correct dates for
the great hot wave Of April "a to 30
See our April charts. Now We VIII
give a very positive and serious
warning for the eight days beginning
Wednesday, June .. That will be
period of exceedingly disastrous
storms and II we had trumpet that
would reach the two hundred anc

very great danger, possibly beginnint

of June. We regard this as a very
serious matter because We feel tina
many. very many, lives will be los
on land and sea.
II is not an easy matter to locate
, these destructive storms, but they
will probably occur south of latitude
40, more probably southwark from
that line and still more probably II
the vicinity of the Mexican Gulf an'
the caribbean Sea. The most severe
storms for many years past, for tn,
same reason, are expected on the Pa

WORK IN MINES DESCRIBED

workers are in their hands, and that
they must take pains to place safety
ahead of anything else.
The organization consists OF = GEN.
trail committee and department COM
mittees. the latter composed of work.
men in the various departments.
1t is the duty of the department
committees to report TO the central
committee dangerous places or prac-
tees which may come under their
observation. These reports are taken
up by the central committee with the
superintendent of the department
and the committee reporting, and
plans discussed for the betterment
or removal of the conditions COM
planned of.
These committees are urged to be
constantly on the watch for danger
Gus places or machinery and to make
prompt report when such are discov-
cred.
In the past tnrce years, July, 1911,
to July. 1914. there has been spent
in safety work over $4,000: the
greater part of this amount was ex-
pended in the latter part of 1911 and
the early part of 1912. Since then
new work has been done as occasion
demanded and previous installations
kept in repair or renewed.
The larger items of expense have
been for equipment of overhead
cranes with ratings and guards.
erecting platforms anu ratings at
overhead valves and at trestles
where material is dumped; guards
for emery wheels: covers for gears.
Automatic speed limits for stationery
engines and subways under danger
GUS tracks.
| Many other safety devices of minor
Importance have been installed thru
out the works.
During the past two years the fuel
department has been issuing certifi-
Gates to employees who have completed
the regular course in first aid train.
ing. 1t was intended that these GER
tiiicates would serve as recommen-
datiOn to the holder in changing his
place of work, as it is considered a
man who is otherwise proficient a
more desirable employee after he has
completed this course. A large num-
Der of the employees have shown
themselves to be entitled to these
certificates.
During the past year the Amcri-
can Mine Safety association, Of whose
executive committee the writer has
the honor to be member, made 1t
possible for trained rescue and first
aid men to become members of So
ciety known as The National Mine
Rescue or First Aid corps. The quail
fications necessary for membership
were made known to employees and
up to date ~ have shown their ell
sihility and have been issued certif-
Gates of membership in the national
organization.
During the past year the new coal
mining law Of Colorado became eff
fcctive. The law requires fire bosses
and mine forcmen to pass examina
tions and mold certificates. In order
to furnish worthy employees with an
opportunity to prepare themselves
for these examinations a correspond
