Talman, late librarian (1908-1936) of the United States Weather Bureau, who accumulated in his time an enormous number of weather terms gleaned from popular and scientific literature. In his search for terms, he covered the period from Aristotle to the present time, and included dialectical weather words. While he wrote no formal deimitions, he appended copious references, citations, and personal notes which have been found invaluable. This great accumulation of terms was available for use in the present-work, and it is hoped that it will always be preserved for investigators and students throughout the English speaking world.---- Alfred H.

Specifically, it includes arrivals at El Paso, Texas, from May 1903 to June 1909; arrivals at Brownsville, Del Rio, Eagle Pass, Laredo, Presidio, Rio Grande City, and Roma, Texas, from July 1906 to June 1909; and arrivals at Aros Ranch, Douglas, Lochiel, Naco, and Nogales, Arizona, July 1906–December 1910. Arrangement is chronological by year, then roughly chronological by quarter year, then by port of arrival. These records are part of the Records of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, Record Group (RG) 85. Background Early records relating to immigration originated in regional customhouses. The U.S. Customs Service conducted its business by designating collection districts. Each district had a headquarters port with a customhouse and a collector of customs, the chief officer of the district. An act of March 2, 1819 (3 Stat. 489) required the captain or master of a vessel arriving at a port in the United States or any of its territories from a foreign country to submit a list of passengers to the collector of customs.

  • City of Savannah, Georgia Records – Health Department 1803-1948 33
    5600HE-GSM-gau (USMARC); GSG (OCLC/SOLINET) City of Savannah, Research Library & Municipal Archives, Savannah, Georgia Record Series #: 5600HE Name: City of Savannah, Georgia Records – Health Department Dates: 1803-1948 Extent/Size: 33 volumes (9.39 cubic feet) Organizational History: From 1790 until 1823, the Health Officer of Savannah was appointed by the Governor. Afterwards, he was selected by the City Council (Gamble, pp. 47, 146). The Health Officer’s duties included visiting vessels arriving in port, imposing quarantine, attending the sick on board, and investigating and preventing the spread of contagious diseases (Code of Savannah 1854, pp. 251-253). In 1877, the Health Officer became head of the newly organized Board of Sanitary Commissioners which was to supervise the administration of City health laws, to investigate and prevent the spread of disease, to examine and eliminate health nuisances, to supervise the sanitary regulations of municipal institutions, and to supervise matters relating to quarantine. The Health Officer, under direction of this board, became the general supervisor of the sanitary interests of the City, making inspections, inquiries, and reports (Code of Savannah 1888, pp. 185-87). By 1923, the Savannah Health Department consisted of the Board of Sanitary Commissioners, the Health Officer, the City Laboratory and Bacteriologist, the City Physician, the hospitals, the City Dispensary, the Inspector of Plumbing, and the City Food Inspector (Mayor's Annual Report 1923. pp. 393-459). The Savannah Health Center was formed in 1920, and by 1925 there was an agreement for the Savannah Health Center, the Health Department, and the County Commission to amalgamate their programs.

  • The Musical Antiquary (1909-1913) Copyright © 2003 RIPM Consortium Ltd Répertoire International De La Presse Musicale (
    Introduction to: Richard Kitson, The Musical Antiquary (1909-1913) Copyright © 2003 RIPM Consortium Ltd Répertoire international de la presse musicale (www.ripm.org) The Musical Antiquary (1909-1913) The Musical Antiquary [MUA] was published in Oxford from October 1909 to July 1913 by Oxford University Press. The quarterly issues of each volume1-which contain between sixty and eighty pages in a single-column format-are paginated consecutively (each beginning with page one) and dated but not individually numbered. The price of each issue was two shillings and sixpence. Publication ceased without explanation. The Musical Antiquary was among the first British music journals to deal with musicological subjects, and contained articles of historical inquiry dealing mainly with "ancient music": the Elizabethan, the British Commonwealth and Restoration periods, and eighteenth-century musicians and musical life. In addition, several articles deal with early manifestations of Christian chant, the techniques of Renaissance polyphony and topics dealing with Anglican and Roman Catholic liturgical practices. The journal's founder and editor was Godfrey Edward Pellew Arkwright (1864-1944), a tireless scholar deeply involved with the study of music history. Educated at the University of Oxford, Arkwright prepared the catalogue of music in the Library of Christ Church, Oxford, and edited several important publications: English vocal music in twenty-five volumes of the Old English Edition, and Purcell's Birthday Odes for Queen Mary and his Odes to St. Cecilia, both published by the Purcell Society.2 The main contribiitors to The Musical Antiquary are well-known scholars in the field of British musicology, all born in about the middle of the nineteenth century and all active through the first quarter of the twentieth.

  • Meteorology and Climatology in Normal
    METEOROLOGY AND CLIMATOLOGY IN NORMAL SCHOOLS AND COLLEGE An examination of catalogues from 76 Normal Schools and Teach- ers' Colleges in the United States throws some interesting light on the meteorology and climatology offered in these schools. Under such titles as "Climates of the World," "Meteorology," "The Changing Weather," "Climate and Man," "Weather and Climate or Climatology," 35 courses are listed. As catalogues from 36 states were included, this would seem to be a very small average, but considerably more climatology is taught than appears on the surface, for in 150 courses given on continents or countries, climate is a factor usually considered. Moreover in about 50 courses listed by some such title as "Principles of Geography," "Mathematical Geography," "Human Geography," "Agricultural Ge- ography," or "Elements of Geography," etc., climatology and meteor- ology are taught although the catalogues are not very lucid as to the extent. There is little or no indication of climatological material being included in courses listed under methods, but it is probable that it is not entirely omitted, particularly in the few Normal Schools where no purely contest work is given.—J. M. Shipman. A HANDY BOOKLET ABOUT WEATHER The "Weather" manual in the Merit Badge Series issued by the Boy Scouts of America (200 Fifth Avenue, New York City), has recently appeared. It is a pamphlet of 73 pages, with plenty of instructive pic- tures. There are views of all the cloud types of the International Cloud Classification, optical phenomena, lightning, St. Elmo's fire, aurora, meteorological instruments, etc. The first half of the text is devoted to an explanation, in simple language, of a number of weather phenomena.

  • The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913
    The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913 The arrival of the Tenth Cavalry sent Burlington into demographic shock. Almost overnight the small city acquired a substantial black community, a situation that clearly dismayed many residents. By David Work n July 1909, the Tenth United States Cavalry Regiment, one of four regular army black regiments collectively known as the Buffalo ISoldiers, arrived in Burlington, Vermont, to begin a four-year tour of duty at Fort Ethan Allen in neighboring Colchester. Their arrival alarmed the almost exclusively white population. Many people feared the presence of sizable numbers of African American soldiers in their community and a bitter debate ensued over whether the city should adopt Jim Crow facilities. For the next four years, the Tenth Cavalry would encounter similar reactions as it traveled throughout the north- east and as far south as Winchester, Virginia. Wherever they went, the black soldiers faced fear and suspicion and had to demonstrate good behavior to win the acceptance of the white population. Created in 1866, the Tenth Cavalry achieved its greatest fame in the late nineteenth century on the western frontier and then served with distinction during the Spanish-American War. In that conflict, the regi- ment charged up San Juan Hill with Theodore Roosevelt’s Rough Riders and won public renown as the “fighting Tenth Cavalry.” In the early twentieth century, the Tenth fought in the Philippine War, served in ..................... DAVID WORK earned his Ph.D. in American history in May 2004 at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. He is currently teaching at Texas A&M Uni- versity in Doha, Qatar.

From this approach emerged the view that the dominant voice of white workers in South Africa was British, and to a lesser extent Australian, and that their blend of class and racial consciousness resulted in the widespread support for the common ideology of white labourism. Indeed, support for this system of industrial and racial segregation was prevalent across the British Empire, was widely supported by the imperial working class, and in South Africa was never seriously challenged or confronted before 1914. Over recent years, however, South African labour historians have made efforts to rethink their national labour history by examining the early labour movement and the ideology of white labourism in a global context. This article adopts a similar approach and argues that the politics of white labourism was not uniformly embraced by the imperial working class, and that in South Africa there was a vocal and active non-racialist movement which sought to confront racism and segregation, dispute the operation of the ‘‘colour bar’’, and challenge the white protectionist policies of the labour and trade-union movement.
