W arns Against Standing in Open or Under Trees, Ad-| [l vising People to Get Under Cover and Keep it Out of Drafts and Away From Doors. By the Associated Pross. MILTON, Mass.,, June 13.—About this season, as the old almanacs used to say, expect thunderstorms. In- evitably they bring danger to human life, but the hazard can be diminished considerably if the advice of' men who have made a thorough study of the electrical discharges of the atmos- phere is_followed. One of these experts is Alexander G. MacAdie, director of the Blue Hill Observatory and professor of meteor- ology at Harvard University. In the little building on the wind-swept sum- mit of Blue Hill, the highest point in eastern Massachusetts and in the midst of the Blue' Hill forest reserva- tion, he has spent many years in watching and analyzing the action of the elements. He has made a special study of thunderstorms and some time ago he formulated a set of suggestions to help people take care of themselves during such disturb- ances. Since that time, he says, ex- perfence has borne out the value of these suggestions and science has not developed any new means of safe- guarding a person against lightning discharges. Get Under Cover. Get under cover, is his first rule. If you can't do that, lle down. About ten lightning flashes in a hundred come down to earth in a straight line and the person who stands out in the open when such flashes are seen in- vites trouble. But getting under cover doesn’t mean seeking shelter be .| neath a tree because that will bring vou in the direct line of discharge, and Prof. McAdle says more people are killed by lightning in this way than probably any other. The doorway of a barn or a window near a chimney also are dangerous | places to stand, because lightning fol- lows to sorge extent any draft of air, especially warm air. When the flashes are heavy or numerous keep away from chimneys, trees, flagpoles or metal clotheslines, and cut out your radfo. Stay Indoors. You are safer indoors than out. | The probability of a person in an neers; First Lieut. James B ) Engineers; First Lieut. Chester C. Fough, Engineers; First Lieut. Robe G. Lovett, Engineers; F Lieut.

JUDGE CAUGHT NAPPING, CONTROVERSY FOLLOWS German Supreme Court Rules “His Honor” May Snooze and Not Vitiate His Decision. Correspondence of the Associated Press. BERLIN, May- 24—A judge who awas found napping has give! & far-reaching controversy many. In the course of question was referred to the German Supreme Court at Leipzig, which came to the strange decision that his honor may safely take his little snooze now @nd then, for in passing judgment it 18 his body, not his mind, which is the principal factor concerned. As was to be expected, this decision has again evoked heated discussion emong the best known jurists in the country. Prof. I. Goldschmidt, the Jegal authority at the Berlin Univer- gity, expresses his opinion thus: “One cannot expect a judge to give his undivided attention to the proceed ings. He is obliged to sign documents, to received messages and to answer numerous whispered questions during the trial. But i it is positively proved that he has been asleep, the case be comes prohibitive, for sleep signifies loss of consciousness, and also irre Eponsibility.” HOSE ARE INVISIBLE.

For the protection of live stock, which often are killed by lightning while at pasture, he warns against tying them near a wire fence. ITALY PASSES TREATIES.
