TELEPHONE CLERK TO HAVE
SEAT IN NJ. v. STOCK EXCHANGE

NEW YORK, n. Y-The removal
of class barrier to the stock exchange,
which N the past has been considered
rather as an exclusive club with a
limited membership, was emphasized
through the announcement that a tele-
phone clerk for a Broadway brokerage
firm IS TO be advanced to full MEM
bership on the board as soon as ar
ransements for the purchase of the
seat have been completed. This is the
second instance in two weeks in which
uniformed eniploye of the exchange
has become a full member. One
reason ascrfbed for the promotion of
employees is the heavy business done
in securities. Messengers and tele-
phone clerks OF long experience at
once become assets to their firms
without a period of ..breaking in.

An epidemic of typhoid recently

illogical phenomenon that they

and are not likely to ever v il

1t was the formation Of giant
atmospheric whirlpools, to Dor
row an aqueous term, In anrl'c-
trical calm belt between ea-' asd
west currents of atm ,splcre it, :;
divided thunder storm.
The first of the e gia;t w..ri-
lwindS came across the east part
tof tow, from tile southeast, aud
was Il black. grating mass oil
dust aud debris.
The second one noticed passed
oyer the south part of town in /,
northeasterly direction, il being
in appearances likeunto the first.
The third came directly ON
the south. and cleaned up the
dust ard rubbish along the line
of buildings on west main street
! The fourth passed over the
jsouth part of town from the
west. 1t was the most terrific
of the entire number, rafting
win,imilIs and lumber in its path
and shaking things up generally,
but doing ro direct damage.
The fifth came from the north
west, and passed over the Den
ney garage and the Central bo
tel.
I Had these five atmospheric
girations have formed a juncture
and united int, one, it would
have made a pretty respectable
cyclone, and each of them might
be considered a cyclone on
small scale -as cyclones probably
begin.
These disturbances took place
probably inside of ten minutes,
but they were as spectacular ten
minutes as one usually exp arieDc.
