WHY sUNsraOKE is Rare.

Sunstroke is extremely. rare in Califor-
MIA and Nevada. The dry atmosphere
prevents it. The rapid evaporation of
perspiration from the skin keeps the
whole body cool, just as water is cooled
in a porous filter. Experiments that
have been made show that the blood of
a man working in the California harvest
field, says the San Francisco Report.
with the air at a temperature of 100 de.
grees or over, is little hotter than that of
a man working in the cool air of the sea
coast. In the East, when the temper
ature is 80 degrees, men working exposed
to the sun are frequently sunstruck.
The moisture in the air there prevents
the evaporation Of perspiration, and the
whole body becomes heated until some.
thing gives way. In California there are
hundreds Of men working in the sun
where the temperature is above 100 de-
grees in the shade, and yet they are
rarely disabled. Examinations were
made a,shoft time ago in the East as to
the effect of trees on temperature. 1t
was found that the shades Of trees was
cooler than that of any other objects.
In streets where the temperature was 80
degrees in the shade of houses, it was
nearly 20 degrees lower under trees. If
people in Nevada would plant more
trees they would be cooler. Even if sun.
stroke is not to be feared, a temperature
of 100 degrees is unbearable.

California farmers arc losing faith in
wheat-growing. This is evident from
the tone OF the country papers. which
reflect the general sentiment ON agricul.
tural topics. There is nothing surpris.
ing in the change. The wonder is that
the farmers there have chung SO tena.
ciously to wheat growing, excluding all
other crops. For years past no small
farmers have made money in grain. even
with good crops. There is more profit
in a ten.acre orchard or vineyard, well
planted, han in l60 acres devoted to
grain. The present season has been as
unfavorable to orchards as to grain
fields, but the fruit.growers are. rs a
rule. making good returns. despite the
small crop.

CONGRESS- ACHIEVEMENT.

The present protracted session Of Con.
gress makes interesting a comparison oil
the length Of different sessions since the
foundation Of the Government. The
length of the first session of the First
Federal Congress was 30 days, the Con.
gress having convened or March a, 1889,
and adjourned IN September 90 of the
same year. The second session of this
Congress was ten days longer, being from
January 4 to August IL, 1890. Both OF
these sessions were held in New York.
The second session Of the Fifth Congress
was held in Philadelphia, and lasted GAG
days. Forty-three years passed before
another session so long as this one was
held, although the first session Of the
Twelfth Congress came within one day
of reaching this number. Two hundred
and sixty.nine days is recorded OF the
second session lof the Twenty.seyenth
Congress, the session lasting from Deem.
Der 6, ls4l, to August 81, 1912. The
first session Of the Thirty.frst Congress,
known in history as the Congress of 1850,
was the longest and stormiest session
ever assembled" and the longest, st
least, in the history Of the Republic,
dating from December 3, lS49, to Sep.
TENDER 80, 1850, a period of 302 days.
1t will be remembered that during this
time the Government was shaken by
perplexing questions. The pro.slavery
party was pushing its claims with tire.
less energy; California was seeking adj
mission as a free State, with the slavery
party barring the doors; Utah and New
Mexico were urging that Territorial
governments be erected over them, and a
law for the recovery of fugitive slaves
was demanded. These and other weighty
questions protracted the session; but at
last the Congress peacefully adjourned,
after having adopted the Clay com.
promise. !,
Tho second longest session on record
was the first session Of the Thirty.second
Congress, the length thereof being 275
days. Adjournment was not effected
until August 81. 1852. The first session
of the Twenty.ninth Congress did not
adjourn. until August 10; the same SEES.
sion of the Thirtieth until August Ia;
of the Thirty:third until August 7; of
the Thirty.fourth until August Is; of
the Forty.fourth until August l6; of the
Forty-seventh until August s. 1t was
this last session that saw the political
quarrel between Senator Conkling and
the President; that saw the New York
Senators resign their seats in Congress;
that saw the assassination of Garfield.
The average OF the first regular or long
session for fifty years, beginning on De-
cember l, 1884, and ending July 7, 1884,
is within a fraction of 230 days. If the
present session adjourus on August l,
the length thereof will be 236 days, or
only six over the average.

THE CAUCUsEs FAILED.
The Boston Block Fire Interfered--
Who il In he what

As announced in yesterdays GLOBE, both
political wings were to have caucussed at
the city hall at 8 o'clock. Unfortunately for
the plans of the city's Solons, the Boston
block fire commanded their attention, and q
full meeting Of either Democrats or Repub-
licans was out of the question. Each party
finally concluded to adjourn until to-day.
The Democrats will not meet until o'clock
while the Republicans will attempt to write
up ''slate" at 10.
majority of the Democrats had chosen
upon Aid. Morse as their candidate for
president. Indeed, the indications are that
IL would have been unanimous, but Mr..
Morse states that he cannot accept the posi-
ton. His health will not permit it, and his
physician has instructed him to take a vaca-
ton. Consequently he will go East as soon
as matters incident TO the Inauguration and
the resultant changes to be made by the
council, are cOnsummated. This leaves
the Democrats somewhat in a quandary.
The only Democratic members who have
had experience are Aid. EichhOrn, Aid.
Gibson and Aid. Maereck. and it is said
that they will not accept the election.
However, DIR. Gibson may be induced TO
make run, as the newly-elected members
would doubtless have some scruples against
making the race SO soon upon taking their
seats. Yet there is an abundant eligible
material, even among the nOvices. Capt.
Mills would not make bad president. He
is parlamentarian and a close observer
OF city affairs, and would, therefore, not
take the seat without some knowledge of
the requirements. He is in full sympathy
with the mayor, as is also DR.. Gibson. The
latter is a bright and promising young
legislator, and popular, too. 1t is prob
lem the sageS must solve at O'Clock this
afternoon.
Now, what will the Republicans do? AS
has been intimated in these columns sew
eral of the more liberal Republicans had
acceded to the praeticability of electing Mr..
Morse, but now that he is out of the field
it is not known how these liberals feel. 1t
is possible that they may come back to their
conservative principles and stand sOlidly
for an out-and-out Republican candidate.
The principle aspirants for the position in
that wing are Aid. Sly and Aid. ClOugh.
Sly has to his credit in the campaign one
more years experience in the council than
his opponent has. and will use the advan-
tage TO some purport. Again, his mayor
atty candidacy gives him some prestige in
his party. Still all agree that it will be a
close fight, for Mr.. Clough is an old parti-
san and he claims that the Republicans owe
1t to him to give him the appointment

Miles G. Chase, until recently captain
of police. was appointed to the force under
Mayor Rand and promoted by Mayor AmeS,
who saw in him the making of an admira-
BILE officer. Chase climbed steadily until he
reached his captaincy, and always bore the
reputation of being faithful and efficient
official. In the police investigation of last
November he lost his head, much to the re-
gret of many, who regarded him as a victim
him a strict disciplinarian and is satisfied
he will make an able head of the depart
ment. Col. Chase has many friends, and
especially among those who know him best,
who will welcome him back to his place on

THE INAUGURATION.
The Mayor-EIect TO Take His Seat ut
2O,cI0ck this Afternoon.

This afternoon the old administration
ceases and the new begins. The city eoun-
Gil, in its official capacity, will witness the
change. Mayor Pillsbury will read his sad
farewell and Mayor Ames, upon dawning
the purple robes, so TO speak, will deliver
his inaugural. He is not q novice in the
inaugural line. He has twice passed
through the ordeal, unscathed, and, as a
matter of course, his third attempt will be
a most decided improvement upon the 9TH
ers. He will outline his policy in tacit
terms and will give the council bit of adj
vice. With Mayor Pillsbury six aldermen
will take their leave. They are Edward
ComstOck, c. c. Hashow, L. Cole, S. c..
Cutter, Matt Walsh and A. j. NOeren-
berg. They are all generally good
fellows and will be missed. Against none,
save. perhaps, Aid. Cutter, not a word of
dishonOr has been raised during the cam
paign. 1t Is true that telling campaign
arguments have been waged against them
all, nearly, but that is the way of the polit-
ical world.

THE SPORTING GLOBE.
Prince and woodside in n Twenty
Five-Mile Race Tonight.
The Granite Club Organized--G en-
eral Sporting Notes.
PRINCE vs.. Woodside.

Owing to report that has been circulated,
that grand street parade would take place
in Minneapolis on Wednesday evening, it
was thought best to postpone the twenty
five-mile bicycle race at the W ashington
rink, between Prince and Woodside, but, as
the parade will be on Tuesday evening. the
bicycle race Will take place as advertised on
Wednesday, commencing at $50 p. m.
This promises to be one of
the greatest contests ever run in
America, and it is probable that
the record, as it now stands, will go to the
wall and new one take its place. AL
though Prince proved the victor in the ten
mile race on Saturday evening last, and at
that, under disadvantages, his bicycle be-
ing detained and he having to ride a Dor
rowed machine, still he cannot be counted
sure winner, as some persons think he
will be, on Wednesday evening. 1t must
be remembered that ten miles is more
Princes distance than WOodside's. whereas
WOodside is considered the fastest man in
America above that distance. At all events
the contest will be a hot one.
