RAILROAD NEWS.
The Delaware. Lackawanna and
Western and Lehigh Valley are having
a rate war on a Coney Island trip to
day. The Lehigh Valley advertised an
excursion to Coney Island for $3.25.
Yesterday the Lackawanna announced
an excursion to the same place on the
same day for 13. Thereupon the Le
high Valley people reduced their rate
to 13 and announced that If the Lacka
wanna made another cut they would
meet It and go them one better. The
traveling public would like to see the
light made permanent. It is a novelty
for Scranton to have a railroad rate
war, although no uncommon thing In
many places, particularly in the west,
where passenger associations do not
obtain with the same force as in the
east
A San Francisco photographer claims
to have completed a dp vW by which
every railroad ticket may be made to
tar the photograph of the original pur
chaser, as a preventive of scalping.
The whole process of taking the picture,
developing the negative, and printing
the portrait on a portion of the ticket
can be done, he says, while the pur
chaser is paying for his ticket, or In one
minute at the longest. The apparatus Is
elaborate, but the Inventor thinks that
It Is Infallible, and that railway com
panies ought to be willing to pay a good
price for a perfect method of prevent
ing scalping by making tickets abso
lutely non-transferable.
Assistant General Traffic Manager
Kingstoon, of the Lehigh Valley says
Th rate situation, both east and west
. bound, la In a most satisfactory condi
tion. What cutting, If any. Is being
oone, Is unimportant." Mr. Kingston
dds that the only unfavorable fea
ture, so far as the road is concerned.
Is the condition of the anthracite coal
trade. He admits he does not under
stand wtiy the demoralization Is con
tinued. The movement of general mer
chandise and the passenger traffic over
the Lehigh Valley Is very heavy.
Officials of the Pennsylvania Railroad
company deny that there Is any trouble
in regard to passenger rates on east
bound business. It has been rumored
that the Baltimore and Ohio had made
big cut In rates from Chicago to
Atlantic City. This, however. Is de
nied, as the rate quoted by the Balti
more and Ohio Is what was agreed
uppon. The Pennsylvania gave a sim
ilar excursion from points In the west
too Atlantic City yesterday, and the
Baltimore and Ohio has been granted
the same privilege, which It is now
exercising.

LCCAL WEATHER EDSEAD
Pull Equipment of Mtteorologleal In
struments Received by H. E. Paine.
HE IS VOLUNTARY OBSERVER
Weather Statloa Will Be at Hla Residence
on Madlsoa Aveaue-WIH Sead Bally
Reports-He Has Noted the
Weather for Years.
Addressed to D. B. Atherton, secre
tary of the board of trade, a full set of
Instruments for meteorological observa
tions were received by express in this
city yesterday from the weather bureau
of the United States department of
agriculture. H. E. Paine, of the Insur
ance firm of Pulne & Son, will have
charge of the weather bureau in Scran
ton. The main instruments are a set of
thermometers, barometers, rain and
snow guages, wind vanes and anemo
meters. The latter are for determining
the velocity of wind.
The set Includes every Instrument
that Is used by the weather experts
everywhere. Observations are desired
by the weather bureau In at least one
place In every county of the United
States, and for the purpose of procuring
these observations the chief of the
weather bureau Is authorized by law
to lend Instruments, but on certain con
ditions, which are the safe keeping of
the Instruments, and that a copy of the
observations must be sent free of ex
pense to the government monthly to
Washington.
Mr. Paine comes under the head of
voluntary observers. They do not re
ceive any compensation from the gov
ernment for the trouble and expense of
maintaining a weather station. It Is
nedessary that the Instruments must be
set up where they will not be affected
by mountain protection, or the reverse,
and Mr. Paine'a residence at 901 iMaill
sun avenue, is one of the best locations
for this purpose In the city.
Observations have a two-fold object:
First, to obtain a knowledge of the
climate of a region to determine the
average air conditions that affect the
comfort, convenience, or health of the
people, and the Influence on plant
growth. The second Is for the discov
ery and improvement of rules and
methods for making weather predic
tions. Ho Is a Good Judge of the Weather.
Mr. Paine has kept a record- of the
temperature for the past twenty years
and is an enthusiastic statistician on
this subject.
A trustworthy record of the weather
is always of interest to any community
and Is often of -very great practical
value. There are numerous calls for
records of the weather as evidence In
courts in Important law cases, months
and even years after the record is made.
Contractors and others Interested In
outside work often want a record of
days when there was rain or high
winds, when streams were frozen over
or swollen by floods. Farmers are in
terested in the state of the season
whether forward or backward, as re
gards temperature or rainfall.
The temperature Is obseved by means
of maximum and minimum thermome
ters, water vapor pressure In the air ts
measured with a dew point appartus
or psychrometer, rainfall with rain
guage, and rainfall reaching different
depths Is measured with a percolation
gauge. There are Instruments for meas
uring snowfalls, wind direction and Its
velocity, cloud motions, sunshine dura
tion, evaporation and fogs and hazes.
Accompanying the Instruments Is a
pamphlet giving complete' Instructions
as to their use. Nothing Is lacking to
form the best possible means of pres
aging the weather, and It Is apparent
the value It will be to the city. Mr.
Paine will prepare a report daily and
In all probability It will be published.
Heretofore the city has taken Its In.
formation from the very brief dis
patches that come from Washington,
and these were not safe to go by In this
region.
