THE HEATED TERM.

Lines.
Numberless are the expedients resorted to by sur
fering humanity to enable them to endure and sur
vive the present alarmingly over-heated term; but
unfortunately some OF the 'preventivesu used have
exactly the opposite effect TO that intended to be
produced while in too many Instances the creme
dies" adopted have materially assisted In bringing
about fatal result. The fact that at least ffty per
cent of the fatal cases Of coup de solicit have hap
pened to excessive drinkers may at least serve as
a caution to those who believe In the cooling
properties OF ardent spirits the present anything
but temperate) weather being death on Incorporate
men. Doubtless there have been many cases like
the one reported the other day where prostraton
from heat has been mistaken for intOx icatiOn and
the sufferer, instead OF being at once removed to
hospital, where proper attention might insure re-
covery has been dragged to the police station
and allowed to die miserable death for the want OF
few simple and inexpensive remedies Prostitution
from heat and prostration from the effects OF liquor
are evils which require widely different treatment,
and however eficacious the cell system may be in
the latter case in the former it Is downright murder
The weather yesterday. although intensely hot,
was slight Improvement upon that OF the three
Proceedings days. The maximum height Indicated
by the thermometer in Hudnut's pharmacy yester-
day was SO degrees, the average being SAX but not
light but refreshing breeze which prevailed during
the latter part OF the day the list of casualties Is OF
alarming length.
