THE TIMES-PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 28, 1893. 5 MAN'S WORK LOCAL FORECASTER DEY EXPLAINS HOW HE SEES A DAY AHEAD. MAKING A WEATHER MAP First He Sprinkles on it the Temperature, Throwing in a Few Isotherms. Then Are Mixed in the Clouds, (Sunshine, Rain and Snow, and Out of the Mixture the Weather for the Next Day is Predicted 86 Times Ont of 100. "The only rule about it is that there are no rules." Sergeant Dey, who keeps watch on the elements from his eyrie on top of the Post Office building and tells Philadelphia folk what weather they may expect, had been asked how forecasting was done and this was his reply.

Many people imagine," he went on, "that our predictions are made by following a set of well-established and infallible weather signs and that a man has only to learn these and he is forthwith qualified to predict with certainty the weather. Nothing is farther from the truth. Of course, there are certain laws of nature from which we do reason, but we supplement these with careful study of the weather map, observation of local weather phenomena and, over and above all, a certain sort of intuitive knowledge which comes to the forecaster through experience and which he couldn't possibly communicate to others. I don't know any set prescription for forecasting weather, and if I did, be assured," 3, significant smile, "I wouldn't give it away," THE WEATHER MAP. While he spoke the weather map lay spread out before him, criss-crossed with red and blue lines, scrawled over with mysterious symbols and figures, breaking out here and there in patches of red and violet and black, looking more like a puzzle than to the which gave a comprehensive view of yesterday's weather the country over and from which deductions as to to-day's were to be drawn.

The weather map is based on observations made every morning and evening at 8 o'clock all through the United States and Canada, and is issued every day. The register of the barometer and thermometer, the state of the sky, whether cloudless or otherwise, the direction and velocity of the wind, the amount of rainfall and snowfall--all that is summed up in the comprehensive word noted these observations, and data regarding them are telegraphed in cipher to the central Signal Service station at Washington and also to the other stations. THE MAKING OF THE MAP. "This is our guide in making all our predictions," said Forecaster Dey, laying one emphatic finger on the map on which all hands in the office were at work, as it was nearing 10 the time it was to be issued in its complete form. One operator attended the incessantly ticking telegraph, which brought the reports, written in cipher for the sake of speed and condensation, as to the state of the weather in the different cities.

These reports were handed to the forecaster, as he sat at his desk busily putting in isotherms," which technical term, being interpreted, meant jotting down on each station on the map the figures representing its thermometer register, and then drawing light dotted lines, one for every ten degrees' reading of the thermometer, to connect places having the same temperature. Heavy lines, called isobars, are also drawn through or near places having the same barometer readings. PUTTING IN THE CLOUDS. The mysterious shaded, semi-shaded and clear circles which occur with bewildering frequency the map indicate whether the day in the place thus marked is clear. cloudy or partly cloudy, rainy or snowy, and the arrows placed beside them show the direction of the wind.

An assistant, reading from the telegraph reports, has been marking these in their proper places with a stencil on a sheet of tracing linen, and when the temperature and pressure lines have all been put in the map is placed under the tracing linen and transferred to it with the stencil. Then it was ready for the record of the increase in rainfall or the rising or falling of the temperature which had taken place since the previous day. Lines were first drawn on a map, enclosing all places where it had grown ten degrees warmer or more, and those where the thermometer had fallen ten degrees or more, and where the rainfall has been onequarter of an inch or more were similarly enclosed. The enclosed sections were then cut out of the map, which was placed over a completely drawn one, and rollers inked with black, which means "rain;" violet, which means colder," and red, indicating warmer weather, were passed over the surface and, of the lower map received a patch of color where the sections had been cut out i in the upper one. The stenciling off of the whole map completes the process.

and now the weather prophets must wrinkle their brows over the problem as to what the morrow will bring forth, juding from the weather of to SOME WEATHER WISDOM. "You see, now," remarked Forecaster Dey, "why we cannot say that certain definite indications mean certain definite phases of weather. There are SO many conflicting elements, and they all modify one another. For instance, a heavy black cloud means rain; but I can't go by that cloud alone. After studying the wind, the barometer, the thermometer and the weather map I may prediet a fine, clear day in spite of the cloud.

Some signs we get to relying on with considerable accuracy, of course. As a general thing a northeast storm commences in British America and moves towards the great lakes and the St. Lawrence Valley and the southeast storms follow the Gulf coast. So that from the position of a storm to-day I can prediet about where it will be to-morrow. But its rate of movement will probably be modified by other complicating conditions, so that the forecaster must learn to put two and two together, or rather two and two hundred together.

This he does with considerable accuracy, as about eighty-six per cent. of our predictions are A COOL OBSERVATORY. The first thought, after moupting stairs innumerable to the Post Office cupola, from whose top Uncle Sam's flag flutters gaily and where his weather prophets study the beavens, is that it must be cool in winter, and you shiver as you are told that "we were caught up here one winter day with the trapdoor closed." Here the daily observations are made at 8 A. M. and 8 P.

and in the little belfry-like crown of the dome, behind doors double slatted to keep out the sunshine, are the instruments used, of which duplicates, connected with them by electric wires, are found in the office down stairs. Here are kept the anemometer, which measures the direction, force and velocity of the wind: the barograph writing barometer which gives a week's continuous record of the atmospheric pressure; the thermograph, which does the same with the temperature; the revolving psychrometer, which gives the amount of moisture in the air, and the quadruple electrical register, which gives a continuous register, day and night, of the velocity and direction of the wind, the duration of the rainfall and the duration of the sunshine. All these are studied, their records noted and the report is sent clicking over the wires to Washington and 160 other Weather Bureaus, to go down next day in 160 weather maps. Aspinwall Discharged From Custody. NEW YORK, July complaint of forgery against Lloyd Aspinwall was dismissed by Justice Koch at the Yorkville Police Court this afternoon and Aspinwall was discharged from custody.

A GOOD WORK GROWING Over Four Hundred Children Sent to the Country for a Week's Stay. An odor of mint and of wild flowers filled Broad Street Station yesterday noon, and all the hurrying passengers paused in their rush to and from trains to gaze with delighted eyes upon the clustering groups of Country Week children just in from their seven days' sojourn on the farms. The three hundred and twenty odd little ones brought in on the returning special which runs each Thursday for the accommodation of the Country Week children were brown and fat, and one and all averred that they had had a glorious time. The usual turtle trophies came back with the boys and girls this week, and the apple, slightly less green, vastly more in numbers, and evidently as soothing as ever to the internal economy of the average Country Weeker were there, of course, carried in bags, in boxes, in dilapidated baskets, or in handkerchiefs tied peddler-wise-by the four corners. The most honored additions to the party on the return train were five small puppies, potential watch dogs to watch the parental domain, to which the dogs' owners were bound.

The pupples were indifferent to their fate and consented to be put on exhibition for the edification of the carload of excursionists with as. much nonchalance as though born to the business. Catnip and watermint harvest has arrived for the Country Week youngsters. Great sheaves of the fragrant greens were brought in on the train. Policemen passing the small men and women begged branches of the herbs, and the anxious mothers at the station to meet their children welcomed the stock for curative "teas almost as eagerly as they did their own olive branches.

One of the pleasantest sights connected with the Country Week business is the home-coming of the children and their meeting with the relatives who were left behind, but whose anxiety for their return has as much in it of pride as of loneliness. Each child who lives beyond walking distance from the station receives a street car ticket from the association; and all whose friends do not meet them, or who are not familiar with streets, are taken to their homes by the ward visitors of the association. The boys seldom wait for guidance, but disperse as quickly as they enter the station. The girls stand in little groups until their line of march is arranged; and then the flocks go gaily off under the chaperonage of some benevolent lady, The association sent out 441 children yesterday on its weekly excursions, the largest number it has had in any one week so far this season. The work will probably go on increasing for a few weeks if the funds will permit.

ONLY ACCOMMODATED HALL Oontractor Ruch Declares That He Was Not in the Ohair Conspiracy. He Loaned the City's Chairs to Hall Merely to Help Him Out of a Hole. George W. Ruch, who has the contract 1 for storing some of the election booths and paraphernalia and who allowed Contractor Hall take the chairs away from his storehouse for use in the Fourth of July celebrations, called at the office of the County Commissioners yesterday morning and made an planation of his connection with Hall's atfairs. "I was requested to loan the chairs," he said, "and not thinking that any trouble would ensue or that the city's property would be destroyed, I complied with the request.

I never received one penny for their use, was promised nothing and expected nothing. I was told by Hall, who received the contract for furnishing all the chairs that would be required, that he could not secure enough to meet the demand, and what I did was merely as an act charity to help him out of what he called a hole. If of the chairs are missing or broken, I will see that each and every is replaced by a new chair inside of -eight hours." THE CONTROLLER IS INDIGNANT. Ruch was told that a count of the chairs under his care showed that 234 out of the 482 were broken or missing, and he promised to replace them within forty-eight hours. Controller Thompson is still pursuing his investigation into the complicated chair difficulty, but yesterday he steadily refused to give out any a information about the matter.

He continued to declare that the publication matter was premature and has interfered seriously with the smooth course of his investigation. It may, he claims, even interfere with the effort to bring to justice those engaged in what is now declared to be a conspiracy. He will tell the public what he has learned when he finishes his investigation, not before. Drowned in the Chesapeake. Special Telegram to THE TIMES.

ELKTON, July Juhn, a member of the firm of Max Juhn of Baltimore, was drowned near Pools Istand, in the Chesapeake, about 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Mr. Juhn was in a small fishing-boat at the time in company with George and James Jones. The boat was struck and upset by a terrific storm of wind and rain. Mr.

Juno, who was unable to swim, was carried away from his companions and drowned. The Joneses managed to hold on to the side of the boat until rescued by a passing tug. Juhn was 31 years of age and a member of the Baltimore Lodge of Elks. His body has not been recovered. A Colored Ex- Consul's Downfall.

Three Hundred Infants, Black and White, Compete for the Prizes Offered. Special Telegram to THE TIMES. ATLANTIC CITY, July 27. Babies white, babies black and babies of all colors, sizes and descriptions made Young McShea's Pier merry this morning, the occasion being one of the big baby shows arranged by Professor James A. Willard, the manager of the structure.

Three hundred of the cherubs were on exhibition for the benefit of the 5,700 persons who paid entrance and voted for their choice for the prettiest, cutest, fattest and handsomest pair of twins. The infants were of all classes, from the elegantly-clothed young aristocrat, whose parents are registered at the leading hotels, to the neatly-dressed child of less noted parents. As a whole, the youngsters behaved admirably, and scarcely a cry was heard in the big dancing pavilion where the contest took place. Each person entering the place was allowed four votes. The prize-winners will not be announced until to-morrow.

Of course, the majority of the children were white and of American parentage, though two little ones of a darker hue were on hand and received a great deal of attention and many votes. A cute little Japanese baby was in the show and was the centre of a throng of admirers. So great was the success of this baby show that Professor Willard has arranged another one for next Thursday, when handsomer prizes even than those competed for to-day will be offered. TO STOP A SHERIFF'S SALE. The Receiver of a Defunct Insurance Company After Its Effects.

Sylvester Bonnaffon, yesterday filed a petition in Common Pleas Court, No. 2, asking the Court to restrain the from disposing of the effects of the Philadelphia Mutual Life Insurance Company at public sale. Mr. Bonnaffon was appointed receiver of the company by the Dauphin County Court on July 18 last, and at the time of his appointment the Sheriff was in possession of the books and papers and fixtures of the company by virtue of two writs of execution issued from the courts of this city, one for $1,000 favor of Rosie Leach and the other for $460 in favor of Adelbert E. Stockwell.

Mr. Bonnaffon says that the Sheriff has refused to surrender the effects of the company and that on Tuesday last advertised a sale of the property to take place on the 28th instant. He asked the Court to stay the writ and order the Sheriff to surrender possession of the property to him. Ramsey Tried to Run Things. OMAHA, July Grand Chief D.

G. Ramsey, of Vinton, Iowa, surprised Division, O. R. which had preferred charges of dishonesty and other things against him, by dropping into its lodge meeting last night. He brought with him the Grand Secretary and a stenographer and tried to run things his own way, but was obliged to listen to the reading of a number of very uncomplimentary letters.

He finally arrested the charter of Omaha division and left the hall. His attempt to get possession of the books and moneys of Omaha division failed. It is thought that he was ignorant of the actual preferment of charges and hoped to stave them off by cutting out the division which made them, Death of Christian S. Essig. Christian S.
