Mental Effects Of Hot Weather.

Mental Effects Of Hot Weather,
From the Boston Globe.
One Of the most Interesting studies bearing upon
this subject (of the relation of mind to NATTER is
found in observing the effects Of a nigh tempera.
ture upon different organizations. The nervous,
sensitive, egOtistic man, when the Thermometer
ranges among the nineties, Is chiefly intent upon
publishing his personal discomfort. Instead of
sitting still and cooling his mind through work or
genial diversion, he moves busiiy about telling
everybody how hot It Is, with gestures and etacu-
lations TO match. He is q mental radiator, bent
upon transmitting his own conditions to other
minds and without intending 1t Is generating his
On the other hand, the man of even tempera-
ment, OF cool mind, avoids all mention OF physical
Is to get his mind as far away from them as
possible. He hears his nervous friend ding down
hts pen or spade and declare that 1t is too hot for
work. TO him c0ngenial work Is the very best
means OF keeping his attention away from physical
discomfort One feels comparatively cool in this

The mere physical temperature Of man on

What Ia true OF man is true of beasts One OF
the most painful sights to person Of kind heart
Is to the distress Of the horses that pull the
street cars on scorching day. These animals
receive the best OF care and treatment BY the
companiee, ana their muscular strength - not

horse doing the same work on country road
would not perspire much. It Is the tremendous
strain upon their nerves caused by constant fear
OF losing their feet on the smooth paving when

The case Of Gen. Duane's successor Is causing
considerable speculation among Army officers
The question Of Col. Parke's claims has brought
forth somewhat similar case which, his friends
claim, may be SUFFICIENT precedent on which to
base his appointment This is the appointment
Of Gen. Baird as inspector general in 1885. His
only rival for the post was Gen. Jones, who was
his senior In rank, but several years younger Gen.
Bairds record was good one and to enable him to
retire with the rank Of brigaoier general he was
given the post. He will retire in short time and
then Gen. Jones Will most likely be appointed, re-
firing couple OF years later. This case gives
some color OF reason to the theory that the Presi
dent may appoint Col Parke In consideration OF
his seniority or service, thus enabling both Col.
parke and Col. Casey to be placed on the retired
list as br1gadiers. At the same time the general
impression is that col Casey will be appointed.
His record as an engineer is an excellent one and
1t Is thought that the President will take the list
as IL stands and make him chief OF engineers. Col.
Parke has at present one OF the best posts in the
country as superintendent OF the Military AGA
deny.
