THE HEAT ,SCOTRGE.

The warm weather in some parts Of the
United States, has been accompanied by
fearful thunder showers which did much
damage to crops. There can be no doubt
that such intense heat will prove very IN
furious to all cereal crops which have
reached the stage OF grain forming. But
the saddest results of the long continued
heat is the fearful increase in mortality
which it has caused through the valley
of the Mississippi which seems to have
suffered most. The heat seems to have
been localized in st. Louis and the great
est number OF deaths are reported from
that city. Business has been partially
suspended several manufacturing estab-
lishments have closed and public works
are being carried on in the night. Over
a hundred persons have died in that city
from the effects of heat during the last
week.
Other cities to the south of here have
suffered though in a less degree. There
are number of deaths reported from
Milwaukee and Chicago. In the difect
rays Of the sun at Milwaukee an exposure
of 10 minutes indicated 120o and it is be
lieved that 1902 would be reached ii the
instrument were held in position mucl
! longer.
On Tuesday cold current of air wa:
said to be coming from Manitoba and i
/ Is probable that the heated period is over
What Is singular is, that outside the vale.
OF the Mississippi the heat has not beer
50 intense even in the same latitude o
those places in the valley which hav,
/ suffered most, and without any great diff
4 ference in elevations. Old settlers in thi
city speak of this as the warmest weathe
they ever experienced in this county.

now TO 1VOID SUNSTROKE.

The New York Board Of Health has is
sued the following:
Sunstroke IS caused by excessive heat,
and especially if the weather is "mug-
gy." 1t is more apt to occur on the sec
ond, third, or fourth day of heated
term than on the first. Loss Of sleep,
worry, excitement, close sleeping rooms,
debility, abuse Of stimulants, predispose
to it. 1t is more apt to attack those
working in the sun, and especially be
tween tile hours OF II o'clock in the
morning and o'clock in the afternoon.
On hot days wear thin clothing. Have
as cool sleepingrooms as possible.
AVOID loss of sleep and all unnecessary
fatigue. II working indoors, and where
there is artificial heat-laundries ETC.
see that tie room is well ventilated. If
working in the sun, wear light hat mot
black, rs it absOrbs heat, straw, ETC.,
and put inside of it on the head a wet
cloth or large green leaf; frequently
! lift the hat from the head and see that
the cloth is wet. Do not check perspira-
| ton, but drink what water you need to
/ keep it 11D: as perspiration prevents the
body from being overheated. Have,
whenever possible, an additional shade,
as a thin umbrella, when walking, a can
vas or board cover when working iii the
sun. When much fatigued do not go to
work, but be excused from work, especi-
ally after II o'clock in the morning on
very hot days, if the WORK is the sun.
If feeling Of fatigue, dizziness, head
ache, or exhaustion occurs, cease work
Immediately, lie down i'll a shady and
cool place; apply cold cloths to and pour
cold water over head and neck. If any
one is overcome by the heat, send i'm
mediately for the nearest good physician.
While waiting for the physician, give the
person cool drinks of water or cold black
tea, or cold ceffee, if able to swallow. Ii
the skin is hot and dry, sponge with, or
pour cold water over the body and limbs.
and apply to the head pounded ice
wrapped in a towel or other cloth. Ii
there is no ice at hand, keep a cold cloth
on the head, and pour cold water on it as
well as on the body. If the person is
pale, very faint, and pulse feeble, let him
inhae ammonia for few seconds, or
give him a teaspoonful of aromatic apirits
Of ammonia in two tablespoonfuls Of
water, with little sugar.

sun STROKE.

The warm weather did not pass away
without bringing death TO some of the
people of Manitowoc county. Three fatal
cases have up to the present "Wednesday
morning,) been reported.
\ farm laborer named Carl Schmidt IL
the employment of farmer named Haze
ger, of Liberty, died suddenly from the
effects OF a sun stroke on Tuesday. Mr.,
Haeger had begun TO cut field Of barley,
after binding q few minutes, Schmidt
complained OF feeling i'll. Mr.. Haeger
advised him to discontinue work for q
while and rest in the shade OF a tree,
standing near where he was at work. He
did SO and Haeger drove once around
the field with the reaper. When he came
to the place where he had parted with
Schmidt he made search for him and
found him in the agonies of DEATH Be
fore he could be removed to the house,
he died.
The second case occurred in the after
noon Of the same day III Centerville. A
man named Geo. lager was at work in a
hay field with his wife. Mrs. lager
went to TIE house for a pail of water
On her return she was unable to see her
husband at work and supposed he had
retired to some shady place to rest. She
resumed work herself, but soon found
her husband lying protrate and beyond
all human aid. Another fatal case is re-
ported from Manitowoc Rapids but we
are unable to learn the particulars.
A man living in the town OF Gibson
was sun struck on Tuesday; he was in a
critical condition until Wednesday morn
ing, when be was pronounced out of
danger.
There IS a rumor that there were two
fatal eases of sunstroke in Newton on
Tuesday, but as we cannot find the par
ticulars up to the time of going to press,
we are inclined to discredit it.

When it was understood last Thursday
that real live general in the person of
little Phil. was about to visit Manitc oc,
a reporter of the PILOT put on an airy
suit resembling a base ball uniform, and
stood on the rainy dock whence all but
him had fled, waiting for the boat which
bore Sheridan and his fortunes. Be
fore the first galoot was ashore the re-
porter sided up to the general with a
quire Of foolscap and his ears well deco
rated with lead pencils.
GLOW are you Philip" began the re-
doubted reporterwhittling 4 lead pencil
in anticipation of the generals answer.
The general evidently was in doubt as
to the state Of his health and seemed
anxious to have a little time to consider,
before hazarding a reply. In order to
reassure him the reporter nud8ed him
under The fifth rib and asked in the tone
which Bozzaris used to cheer his band.
"Who's afraid"
The general looked a. the reporters
nondescript outfit and evidently wished
he was twenty miles away OH the celebrat-
ed charger which congress refuses to
supply with oats. He muttered some
thing about Ku klux costumes and Sit
ting Bulls warriors. But all this little
relevancy bore to the question which
the PInoT representative ''spered" at
him. To him again the reporter, who
seeing the embarrassment of the hero of
Winchester, thought it advisable to put
question quite general in It's scope,
''WEat is your opinion of things III gen.
eraI?"
Just then the city band struck up schot-
tische and the generals opinion on base
ball, Saengerbund and Turnvereins, was
lost to the many readers of the PILOT, and
/ Phil Sheridan lost golden opportunity
of becoming famous. As the last it'll
/ lating strain Of the waltz tune died away
on the close air of the steamers cabin,
the reporters fine frenzy for ghttering
! generallties also took flight and questions
of finance like visions of home to the
sailor boy danced Ger his mind"
Ibid you ever try to pass a twenty
cent piece for a quarter, general"
The general was too full for utterance
/ and the reporter knew from his own ex-
perience that "many time and off, had
the general purchased ''three for quar-
ter and passed over twenty cent piece
which never reached the money drawer
until escorted by nickel at the sugges
ton of the hard hearted vendor of pure
Hayannas. The reporter and the genera
now heayed sigh for sigh at their sad ex
perience, so similar as to unite them IN
dissolubly in bonds Of mutual sympathy
The interview was here again interrupted
by procession Of men with umbrella
and standing collars, marching to til:
, tune of the hooking bird and embracing
Phil as they passed. Phil stood it Hk'
little man and the reporter passed on
: with the crowd assuring the general tina
they would again meet III the sweet b,
! and by.

TIE question OF Cramps" is being
forced upon the attention of the people
of the state by the appearance in person
of that much dreaded element in society.
A proclamation by the governor of Iowa
had the effect Of driving all the tramps
from that state and caused an influx of
the vicious classes to adjoining states.
Travelling in large bodies they have sue
cessfully defed the local authorities in
small places, have captured trains and
acted in various ways like a conquering,
invading army. Beloit, GAINESVILLE and
Madison are the points in which they are
most numerous. But the mayors of these
places have acted promptly and energet-
ically and the tramps find that discretion
is the better part Of valor. This is a
question however that needs the united
attention of the states. There can be no
doubt that among those tramps are many
worthy but unfortunate laborers, but the
! majority are too ind0lent to work even
at remunerative wages, and those should
be treated as criminals, and receive
the punishment which their disturbance
merits.

The warm weather Of the past week
has been something unparalleled in this
latitude. People unanimously pronounce
last Tuesday the warmest day they ever
experienced in Nanitowoc. In other
localities, not 50 favorably situated the
heat has been almost uncomfortable. In
many cities throughout the United States
the number of deaths occurring through
sunstroke has been unusually high.
There were twenty fatal cases of sunstroke
at st. Louis on Sunday. The heat is SO
continuous together with being intense

Potato bugs are out III all the power
and pride of their strength. They have
work to do, multiplying their kind and
devastating the potato patch, and they
perform it without favor or reward
Many plans are invented and applied for
their annihilation but ike a successful
army they march onward" leaving desc
lation and ruin in their track. An en-
terprlsing young man of this ncighbor-
hood sells compound for their destruc-
ton which lie warrants to kill upon first
application. Many were induced to try
the experiment but the bug kept on in
the even tenor OF his way and attended
to his business as effectively as if no at
tempts were made to poison him. A
friend of ours, Mr. Larry Welsch informs
us that after applying the remedy and
vainly awaiting the anticipated slaughter,
he determined to see what virtue the
compound possessed Catching healthy
and vigorous young bug he deliberately
opened its mouth and emptied tea
spoonful of the mixture into his abdomen.
He Of course expected to see him die on
the spot Bat no. He walked off as
proudly and complacently as does the
genuine tramp after receiving a hearty
meal from the hands OF some charitable
person. With a sigh of regret Larry
turned from the spot and invested in
Paris green.
