WEATHER RECORD BROKEN
DURING PAST WEEK.

Westerns Carolina along with all 9TH
er parts Of the country has experienced
unusual weather of late. 1t has been
severely cold and the SHOWS have been
so frequent that they remind one of
dog day showers, but they have been
light and the sun is shining again
Thursday with only about two inches
of snow on the ground.
Sunday morning was the coolest day
of the season, the government ther-
mometer registering two below zero
in Hendersonvslle.
The earth is said to be frozen seven
inches deep
OF course this cold and unusual
weather is all easily understood after
reading this very lucid explanation
sent outsby. the weather bureau at
Washington on Saturday. All read
ers viii be able to understand the an
tics ,of the weather hereafter. Read it..
IN the language of the weather
sharps, an "antf-cyclone" is RESPONSE
less than an extraordinary high bar
ometeT touching this morning as high
as 81 inches something seldom seen
in winter weather. This condition,
prevailing over a great territory,
means that an area of high atmos-
pherics pressure, impregnated with
cold, has suddenly settled down over
the eastern seceion and by it's superior
weight and force, had crowded out to
sea the sow pressure area which con-
Fta4fled al5t1e warmer air. Around the
edges of the high pressure area there
are rain and snow, but the whole great
mass has settled so sluggishly and
gives so little disposition to move on
and give place to warmer airs, that
the weather bureau warns the country
| it may not expect relief for three or
four day. at least"
! The lowest temperature - recorded
F! through the country Sunday was at
Northfield, Vermont, where the mer-
curry dropped to twenty-six below.
| With fourteen below at Boston and
thirteen below at New York last night.
! all records for the local bureaus at
those cities were broken and in the
coast state south of New York the
cold was severest since 1880.

DUSKY GOGGLES FOR

Use of eolored gogg es by trainmen
while on duty has been prohibited by
the N. &c w. for fear that such use
may interfere seriously with the dis
tinguishing of proper color and dis
lance of signals.
1t has been explained by the conn.,
bany that the use of green, blue, ye;.

cause the person wearing it to mis-.
take the color of a particular. signal
Such a mistake might result in Sc.
rious wreck and the consequent loss
of hundreds of lives Plain ass Cog
giles may be used provided the en-
ployee passes the eyesight examina-
