that the only object of the proposed visit was to
make secure the alliance between Germany and
Italy, and thereby the addition of half q million
men to the German army, and that the pspal
question was quite outside Of it, was an out
come of the same difficulty. The Pope easily
recognized that the Kaiser was in the hands Of
King Humbert, as his host, and therefore
raised no further objection to his going

Old Sol Getting in Some Hot Work-The
Temperature Yesterday.
The Signal Service reports show that
August gave more days on which the ther-
mometer was above 800 than was ever be-
fore recorded by the Signal Service. The
average number of days during the past
eleven years was 12-the greatest number
being is, in 1885, and the least 5, in 1881
while August Of this year gave %, or IL
more than the average in many wears.
being 8 more than August, 1885, and IS
more than August, 1881 September came
in with raging temperature, it having
reached 10350 on Saturday, the highest
ever recorded By the Signal Service in
eleven years. The record stands for Sep
tember as 1902 in 1882, 101o in 1888 and
1909 twice in 1887, while the 1st of Septem-
Der this year bears off the palm by reach
ing l040, and the second day 1929 1t can
truthfully be said that the four seasons of
1888 have been the most singular that have
occurred here in forty years. The winter
of 1888 gave US the lowest temperature
190; the spring OF 1888 gave the highest
temperature ever recorded in April-89o;;
the summer the hottest ever known, with
the highest temperature-108o and the
Ial gives the hottest September
ever known - 1040, and what is in
store for us in the way of a
wet or dry seasons for the one now advanc-
ing, we are unable to say. The average
number of days on which the temperature
was recorded above 800 for the summer
season during the past ten years is 2S; the
greatest number being 3S in the summer of
1870, and the least y, during the summer
OF 1880, while the summer (1SSS) Just past
gave 40, being u more than the average
and more than the greatest number in
1879, and % more than the summer of
1880, which gave the smallest number of
days IN ten years (12) we have, therefore,
had during the year 1888, SO far, the coldest
winter, warmest spring and hottest summer
ever before known, and the hottest Septem-
Der on record. The highest and lowest
temperature on Saturday was 104o and 62o.
The average was 800, being 90 warmer than
the normal for that day. The highest and
lowest temperature yesterday was 1929 and
6l0. The average was 79o, being 60 warmer
than the normal for that day This is the
first time in the past eleven years that
two days in succession during September
the temperature reached 1909; the 1st Sat
urday, was 104o and yesterday 1929. Old
Sol appears to be getting in his work in the

ance. He appears to be competing with
the great Mojave Desert, or with the heated
