LAST Saturday the mercury rose to
lO2 IN the hall of the House OF Repre-
sentatives at Washington, and number
of the members were stricken down by
the heat. o. course it was rs bad in the
Senate Chamber, and among the suffer-
ers in that body was Senator DAVIS OF
this State. He was utterly overcome by
the heat, and was carried to Committee
room IN helpless state when restora-
tives were applied The heat in Wash
ington is utterly unlike that of other To-
caities. 1t fills the air every minute ofthe
twenty-iour hours, neither night, noon,
or morning stiording refreshing relief.
In this condition people from all sections
suffer, and it is a singular fact that the
members from the far south, where the
climate is supposed to be closely allied to
the torrid, suffer the most. Washington
is almost fatal to non-residents in the
the summer months. and Congress in
vites its fate in persisting in a .continu-
ance of the session.

NoTwITHsTANpING the intense heat
that has prevailed for two weeks past,
the rains have been so frequent and SO
copious as to interfere very materially
with the harvest work of the farmers.
However, we do not think much damage
has yet been done to hay or grain. The
first crop of clover was mostly saved be-
fore the rains set in; the cutting of wheat
has progressed between showers, and the
rains have not been so continuous as to
sprout grain in the shock, and the
timothy meadows have scarcely been
commenced on by the mower. A week
or ten days of settled weather would
bring the harvesting pretty safely to an
end.
The hot showery weather has made
the corn shoot forward at an almost in
credible pace; but the weeds have also
revelled in luxurious growth, and much
of the time the ground has been too
wet to fight them.
Oats have developed wonderfully since
the end OF the draught, and now prom
ise a iutl crop. Potatoes, especially
those late planted, are coming forward
well. Apples are abundant IN almost
every orchard and altogether the farmer
has every reason for thankfulness.

about fifteen minutes before his death. He
recognized US, saying he thought it hard to
be shot down in this way without any pro.

who shot him, and he said Jean Noguez.
The cOlOred people are quite excited at
this, to all appearances, wanton murder of
one OF their people, many of them quite
justly remarking that if white man had
been killed by q colOred man under like
circumstances the niger would be lynched.
There was strong talk among them of

vailed among them, and they have properly
decided to let the law deal with the accused.

The German Republicans.

NEW URLEANS, SepteM GER IL, 1910.
EDITOR REPUBLICANS:
notice in last Sunday q Picayt'e an ar
ticle entitled "The Germans and Mr.. Pack.
ard" signed by lone whose Republicanism
can not be questioned"
This gentleman asserts that there is
feeling Of decided hostility existing in the
city among German Republicans against
Mr.. Packard because he had given already
unquestionable evidence that he would not,
now, nor after his election as Governor,
give any representation or patronage to cit
zens Of German nationality or extraction.
He further says that the German Repu5li-
cans were sick of this and we're going TO vote
the State ticket with Nichols g. Co. on i,
and the national ticket with Hayes and
Wheeler He even goes so far as to say the
dissatisfaction was go great that at the
meeting next Monday night (tbe elevepth)
at Mechanics Institute, OF the German Re
publican Central Club, strong resolution
repudiating Captain Packard would be in
trOdueed. :,
Now, this is all nonsense. Has the gen
tIeman no. seen in Saturdays REPUBLICAN
resolution passed by the German Repuo'
lican Central Club, and forwarded to the
parish executive committee, pledging our
adherence to the party as German Amerl-
can Republicans, and our unqualined sup
port of both national and State tickets!
NO German hopuOlicaH " AO noo eOo AAS
five senses can vote any other ticket than
the Republican straight through, even II
there should be one or the other candidate
not exactly to his liking. Does he believe
that the Germans, who are generally OF
peace and order-loving disposition, Will
vote for General Nichols, who now, on his
"swinging around the circle" tour, has men
in his retinue who openly preach murder
and riot! He is greatly mistaken. ven
ture to say that great number OF Germans
who are now hob-nobbipg with the Demo
cratic party will certainly, on the seventh
of November next, vote the Repuoncan
ticket, and, if need be, on the sly.
As far as the refused recognition ana
patronage by Mr.. Packard to German
American citizens ia concerned, can speak
onIv for the German Republican Central
Club, This club was not organized for
money.mak king nor position-seekingP purpose.
Ira officers and members have not even
made the personal acquaintance Of Mr..

WREAKING VENGEANCE.-John Flynn
and Patrick Tuohy were intimate friends
until last July. when they quarreled about
small sum of money. The affair seems to
have greatly worried Flynn, and he nursed
his wrath to keep it warm, but Tuohy was
not aware of that fact. Late Saturday
night Flynn met Tuoby on Julia, near
Franklin street, and struck him stunning
blow on his head. The victim recovered in
q second or two, and then begged his as-
sailant not to murder him, which seemed to
excite Fly mn, who thereupon drew dirk
and stabbed Tuohy twice, once in bis left
arm and once in his left breast, after which
he escaped, probably believing that he
had killed his man.
