EQUINOCTIAL STORM, New Britain Herald: Will you please print through your paper regards the line storm. Does It come In September or October’ Have we had same or not? The ‘“Line storm” or autumnal equinoctial atormn comes usually when the sun crosses the equator passing south about September 22, this being called the autumnal equinox. Al- though this day has passed we have had no such storm. On this snhject one authority says: “While the changes of autumn closely offset, as in the nature of things they must, the changes of spring, the autumn transi- tion is, i comparison with that of spring, a very equitable affair. There is an increasing number of cyclones, with an increasing closeness of or- ganization, But they travel protty generally along the northern border and produce comparatively little rain. It {5 the season of West Indian hur- ricanes, and of those that come to us the harder ones show something of preference for the latter part of September. This, more than any sud- den starting up of eyclones from the northwest, has fixed us in the habit of expecting about Scptember 21st, when the sun is in its journey south across the equator, what we call the equinoctial storm. The expectation is realized only just enough to keep it from year to year well alive. Such storms as come then or later, until near the end of November, arc apt to be clean, straight-out affairs that, either of thelr presence or of their departure, leave us in no disgusting doubt, because it was too dark for the play- Nevertheless, for the tself 15 well wetion he did players publicly will ers to see well sake of the game it 8 Judge Landis took the Added An Le only profitable advertising modiom In good would come if the City, Clreulation books and piess| room alwaye open te advartis stones and jewelry, pression that the income of a success- ful bandit be rather large.

Trap Door Near Altar The cellar 1s little used. Two weeks ago James W. Mills, sexton and husband of the murdered wom- an claimed to have the only key to it. He said he went there only to tend the furnace, A trap door is at the left of the cellar, but there are no stairs leading down and the only entrance is from the outside, through a door below the window of the pastor's study. Find- ing of the box came simultaneously with discovery of letters written by Hall to Mrs. Mills.

Mrs. Annie Hoag, who lives in a farmhouse about 600 yards away, broke ‘a persistent silence by telling Detective David that she had heard shots the night, three weeks ago, when the double slaying occurred.
