The Summer Heat.

The original source Of the summers
heat is the sun, but many local causes
tend TO modify and vary the action.
The earth is really farther from the
sun in summer than In winter, so that
the warm weather does not depend
upon the greater proximity Of the
source Of heat. II is due TO the fact
that in summer the northern hemis.
phere is turned more directly towards
the sun, so that it receives its rays in
more vertical direction, while in win
ter il is turned farther away, and the
oblique heat rays are unable TO raise
tie temperature 10 any great degree.
The varying length of the days is also
an important element, rs tho long
days Of summer allow the earth 20 be
exposed for Il longer time 10 Tie inGu
ouce OF the scarce Of heat.
The thermal summer, that is, the
period Of greatest heat, does not CORE
sp0ud with the astronomical summer.
On June2l the suns rays are most
nearly vertical, and the earth is ex-
posed 10 their influence for a greater
proportion of the twenty.fou hours,
but the hottest weather is cot general.

The New Rook. pi.cu.sed.

PERI, Oct. Especial The teachers OF
The several townships of this county have met
during the last two weeks in their respective
townships to perfect the organization of their
institutes, as required by law. Incidentally
the new school books have come up for discus
sion. Your correspondent has made diligent
inquiry. and finds that, with one exception,
they have expressed themselves highly favor
able to the books of the Indiana school series.
The readers in particular are regarded as
superior 10 anything heretofore in use in the
common schools. OF course, there are a few
obieetors. whose politics blinds them to the
merits of the new books. The institute as a
whole. however, have agreed to stand by the
new books. The country people cannot COM
prehend the animus of certain newspapers in
their attacks on the books. why" remarked
an intelligent old farmer Ia republican by the
way, Il came to town aud looked at the new
books at the trustees Office, and although our
teacher hasn't ordered a general all-around
change, I started my six children in with the
new books. The total cost for my family was
about what il cost me IN past years for an out

HE KANSAS FARMER.
How the American system" Is Reducing
Him to Nassalage.

How the American system" Is Reducing
Him to Vassalage.
To THE EDTTOR-Sir: Your article on the
Kansas farmers named the chief cause Of the
great depression in farm values in that state
the tariff. The tariff lords loan their vast ac-
cumulations to the western farmer at high
rates of interest They fix the price on every
staple the farmer has 10 sell, and control the
means Of transportation to the seaboard. In
fact, il would be hard to discover wherein the
grip Of the tariff lords upon the American
farmer could be strengthened.
But there is one phase Of the situation In
Kansas you did not touch upon. There IS TO
be established at some point IN Kansas head
quarters of an English syndicate OF capitalists
for the purpose Of buying up all the available
first-class mortgages upon farm property IN the
several western states, including missouri,
Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado. Minnesota and
Washington. The American agent IS Mr.. j..
". Thomas OF New York, who says the money
has all been subscribed. and that the syndi-
cate will begin operations NOV. 1,
The situation in nutshell Is this: Ihe OPP
Grafton Of the tariff made it impossible for the
western farmers TO develop their lands with
out mortgaging, and a restricted market pre-
cludes the possibility Of paying out. In comes
representatives of Dutch barons and British
nobility to buy the mortgages under conditions
that make their transfer equivalent TO trans
Ter of the land itself, and thus the western soil
will become the property and the western
farmer the vassals offoreigners. grand thing
indeed is the american system"

CoSNERsvILLE Oct. Especial. = Since
the murder OF Miss Kitty Hook came to light
the suspicion Of the public has rested on avery
wealthy and prominent citizen OF this county,
and it was thought that he would be arrested,
which undoubtedly would have taken place
shortly had it not been for his death which oc-
CURED Saturday night. Sunday morning the
news reached the city that Lee Jones had COM
mitted suicide. The excitement was intense.
DESTROYS OF knowing the facts in the case, your
correspondent FASTENED 10 the scene of the
supposed suicide. Hearing of the presence of
a SENTINEL correspondent, his daughter, Mrs.
Herman KrObs, made the following statement:
'My father has been sick since last Monday.
lie became worse Thursday night and was COM
PEELED to take his bed. Saturday night he was
worse than usual and doctor was summoned,
but before his arrival father had died. He
called us around his bedside, and his last
words were: Tell baby referring to Mrs.
Charles Finney Of Kansas City, goodbye for
me- He idolzed her. Ny father was an un-
selfish man and loved his family so much"
Jones last week was heard to remark that
''no one could stand up under the pressure"
One theory is that he died of heart disease caused
by the shock. The other is suicide which seems
10 be the prevailing one. Saturday hight be
learned the intention of the family TO send for
a doctor, and he remarked that it would be Of
no use, as he would be dead before the doctor
could arrive. He protested his innocence until
the very last, and almost with his dying breath
said: 81 die an innocent man." DR.. Gregg
and Coroner Larimere made post norton ex-
animation, but as usual are sworn to secrecy.
The stomach of Mr.. Jones was sent away for
the purpose of being analysed and it is thought
sll doubt will be removed when returns come.
The coroner's report will probably be made to-
