SPEAKING of the hot weather just ex-
perienced east of the Rocky mountains,
the San Francisco Chronicle says there
has never been a well-authenticated
case of sums stroke in California, although
it is not unusual for the thermometer to
rise to 112o in some parts of the state,
and to 1902 and 1889 in Sacramento and
Marysviile. IN June, 1859, from the
effects of a sirocco blowing from Colorado
desert, the thermometer marked 1929 in
Stanislaus county, and 1889 in the shade
at various places in San Bernardino and
Santa Barbara counties. At the mines
1l00 to 114o in the shade has not been
uncommon; yet so pure and dry is the
atmosphere there that thousands of
miners here worked all day in the sun,
during the greatest heat, without pros
tTation. In San Francisco the tempera-
tu-e is much lower than in the interior
of the state, and seldom rises much above
! 70o; but during the last years the heat,
perhaps on account of dry winters and
intermissions in the trade winds, hss
been greater than formerly, the summer
of 1877 having been the hottest in ths
history of the state. June u, 1876, the
thermometer rose to 950, and June IL
1877, to 990. Those two years have alst
been marked by an unusual mortality
owing, possibly, to the heat and to /,
miasmatic north wind.

bonny brown hair thickly sprinkled with
