101, and in Paris it stood at 90. In trop-
ical countries the heat often rises above
los, and at the Cape of Good Hope the
thermometer sometimes marks 100 with
out fatal results, but in America, es-
pecially in the early part of July, be-
fore the human system has become thor
oughly adapted to the hot season, the
poisonous effect of temperatures above
80, puts it in jeopardy. In London it
was the hottest season known in twenty
two years. The director Of the Paris
observatory declared there was no rec
ord of such intense heat and its inter
ference with every department of trade.
July q, 1881, is said to have been tn
hottest day ever known in Charleston
up to that time.
Another torrid wave came in August
of that year and with a brief inter
mission continued until the middle of
September. In Richmond the Their
mometer registered 105 dogs; in Wash
ington, 104; in Trenton, 101; in Baltimore,

Tenny, Tea Tray and the other fayorites
vainly reaching for them from the other
side of the race track fence, to use some
what hyperbolic illustration. Loantaka
has always been considered quite race
horse, but strange to relate no one, COM
paratively speaking, looked upon him as a
possible Suburban winner. Loantaka
was foaled five years ago at Wyndham
Walden's farm in Maryland. Two years
later, however, he belonged to Mrs George
Lorillard and was saddled with the must
cal name Loantaka, which when translated
means Ugly Duckling.
In the matter of pedigree Loantaka had
every excuse for winning the Suburban.
His dam was Peggy Dawdle, mare de-
scended from Hermit, one of England's
most sensational Derby winners, while his
sire was Sensation, by bennington. Lo-
antaka is at present owned by David w.
McCoun, of Philadelphia, who bought him
for $40 at the Mrs. George Lorillard sale,
Aug. IS, 1883. The best performance of Loan
taka's career, the Suburban excepted, was
his victory in the Sheepshead Bay handi-
cap last year with lis pounds up. He COW
cred the mile and fUrlong in 1:55 3-5, and
defeated such cracks as Firenzi, Castaway
II, Longstreet and Tristan. In the recent
Brooklyn handicap Loantaka was thir-
teenth. He is brown horse, and as home
ly q horse as his first name would indicate.

John Rogers, Useful Horse.

The Pennsylvania law in regard to
fences requires them to be "horse high,
bull strong and pig tight" but John
S. Rogers, one of the big farmers of
Delaware county and leading light in
politics, has jumping horse that no five
rail fence will keep in his grazing ground.
Between the duties of his occupation as
a tiller of the soil and securing the coun-
try two or three times week for lost
horse, Mr.. Rogers is busy man.
Everybody knows the horse, but Rog-
ers has to call for him all the same at the
horses visiting places, so that counting
lost time he is the most expensive ami
NAL in Rogers collection. His owner
would sell him but for his prospective
campaign for the shrievalty, in which
the horse is already a potent factor, hay
ing introduced his owner TO more men
than Rogers could count in a single
month by constant application, and coun-
try folks are beginning 10 understand
why Rogers keeps this high jumping
horse.-Philadelphia Record.

laboring in his pecdliar line for several
weeks, Elder Cudney purchased aschooner
of forty-fve tons burden called the Phoebe
Chapman. 1t was sold at forced sale,
bringing only 81, 100, and had accommoda-
tions for ten persons besides the crew.
After purchasing the vessel Elder Cud-
| ney secured crew, consisting of a captain,
mate two sailors and steward, and on
July 81, 1855, sailed out of the harbor of
Honolulu for Pitcairn island, intending
first to proceed to Tahiti and take on board
Missionary Tay, of Oakland, who sailed
from San Francisco on July s. Mr.. Tay
reached Tahiti in about thirty days, and
for six months remained at the settlement
awaiting the arrival of Elder Cudney and
his schooner.
In a subsequent letter to his friends in
Oakland Missionary Tay said: After
three months had passed, having heard
that Brother Cudney had bought vessel
and was fitting her up, l met a man who
had come from Honolulu, who described
the vessel to me. He said house had been
built on the main deck for the missionaries
to live in. The vessel had sand for ballast
and was loaded with furniture. When
learned these particulars concerning the
vessel | concluded that it was very unsafe.
Having waited in vain for six months | de-
cided to return to my home in Oakland"
The Adventists at their general confer
ence decided to build missionary ship for
operations among the islands of the Paci-
fic and if possible to discover the fate of
Elder Cudney. At subsequent meeting
of the International Sabbath School asso-
citation at Battle Creek, Mich, it was ar
ranged that the money necessary to build
the new missionary ship be raised among
schools of the church throughout the
length and breadth of the land. The work
progressed, and on Sept. Is, 1890, the dedi-
cation of the new missionary ship Pitcairn
took place in Oakland, Cal, with appro-
pirate religious ceremony. The vessel had
been previously launched on the night of
July %.

INAUGURATION OF THE CRYSTAL PALACE.
as if New York was on fire. The ther-
mometer ranged from 80 to 81 degs for
five or six days. In that summer we
opened the Crystal Palace in Reservoir
square, at Sixth avenue and Forty-sec-
ond street. On the day of the Inaugural
ton the mercury indicated 81 dogs, and
people tainted in the crowd and fell dead
in the streets. During the week pa per-
sons were killed in New York by sum
stroke.
The year 1872 was another fearful one
in the metropolis One hundred and
fifty-five cases of sunstroke occurred on
July 4, of which seventy-two proved
fstal. The principal thoroughfares were
like fields of battle Men fell by the
score and ambulances were in constant
requisition. Working people staggered
in sheer exhaustion, great globules of
perspiratiOn flowing from their faces,
and laborers along the docks and on
buildings in process of erection were
obliged to stop work or pay the dread
penalty. Dumb beasts lay down by the
wayside and painted their lives away.
Sleep for two or three of the hottest nights
was well nigh impossible, and in the
tenement districts women and children
were found dead on the roofs to which
they had clambered in the hope of getting
breath of cool air. The scenes in the
morgue were appalling; dozens of bodies
on the stone slabs under the splashing
water awaiting the recognition of friends;
here a stalwart man who had been
stricken suddenly, there a comedy wom-
an with her face turned toward the light;
yonder the official photographer doing
his CHASTITY yet necessary work in pre-
serving the pictures of the dead; eager
eyed relatives hunting among the corpses
for some missing loved one. a horrible
stencil mlngllng with the oppressive heat
and lamentations filling the air. Over
200 deaths were recorded in three or four
days.
The next serious visitation took place
in 1876, and about July 9 began to- make
Its power felt throughout the middle and
southern states as well as in New York.
In Washington, the heat was particular
ly oppressive. General Sherman declares
that the car rails became so expanded
by the action of the sun as TO rise up in
curved hines. drawing the bolts. In one
instance the rails burst away from the
bolts and left the track entirely. The
thermometer marked 104 dogs.
The summer Of 1879 will long be re-
membered for its to-rid atmosphere.
The situation viii be better understood
from the following record: Norwich,
Conn, June 2, 100 degs.; New York.
June 2S. IS degs.; Charleston. July
IL, 10l degs.; on the same date, st. Louis,
100 dogs; Knoxville, Tenn, July IL
103 dogs; Charleston, July IA, III deZs
sixteen Deaths; Detroit, July l6. l0a
degs.; New York. July II. l01 dogs.
In 1881 it is said the heat throughout
the United States was the greatest on
record, the thermometer in many places
registering l05 degs. in the shade. In
England the mercury ranged from 30 TO |

Wilmington, Philadelphia, Rochester
and elsewhere from 80 to 1O1; yet, on
Sept. snow fell in Deadwood, S. D., tc
the depth of five inches, and at Bald
mountain the snow was two feet deep.
Nine years ago the months of June and
July, 1882, were notably oppressive in
their atmosphere. On the 18th of July
lightweight children in New York died
from the effects of the heat. Car horses
fell dead in their traces; drivers dropped
from their seats on trucks and wagons.
Broadway was like great transparent
fame of fire.
Business was partially suspended and
many workshops were closed. The
crowded parts of New York on the east
and west sides were filed with families
mourning for their dead, and under
epidemic prevailed. The housetops were
turned into vast bedroom and the pitt
full cries of sick children mingled with
the clinking of glasses in the beer shops
Seven hundred and seventy-nine little
ones died during this period from dis
eases superinduced by the heat.
The sweltering temperature of last
year appeared to hold its longest revel in
the central and western portions of the
country and among the larger cities.
Chicago suffered most severely.
How people shall deport themselves in
such weather is matter for serious con-
sideration. For many decades it was the
commonest thing in the world for per-
sons whose tastes in dress were unexcep-
tionable to struggle through the hot term
in black broadcloth, heavy hats and
black boots. Now, however, pongee silk,
flannel and canvas shirts, with low russell
shoes, have become the rule Suspend
ers have given way to the sash, and in
donning the light silk or flannel coat and
discarding the waistcoat much has been
done to make the heat endurable. But
there is another point. The art of keep
ing cool refers as much to the mind as
the body. The sun has no more active

THE MISSIONARIES.

tober of the same year he secured passage
on the British man-of-war Pelican, and on
the 18th the island was sighted.
Soon two boats came off TO the ship, and
the magistrate of the island and about if
teen other persons came on board. The
magistrate stated that Mr.. Tay could not
be permitted to stay, as they had a law
against it. The following morning. at the
ringing of bell, the islanders assembled
and canvassed the question of allowing the
missionary to remain. 4 vote was taken.
and no one objected.
When Sunday came he began his mis-
sionary work The bell was rung, and
every one turned out to the meeting
From that day Sunday was observed in
Pitcairn. Five weeks after he landed Mr..
Tay was given an opportunity TO return TO
San Francisco on the yacht General Evans
Interest n the missionary work on Pit
cairn island was subsequently aroused
among various religious denominations,
out the Seventh Day AdventSsts were the
first in the field. At meeting of the gen.
ersl conference committee held IN April,
1855, it was decided TO send Elder A j.
Cudney, OF Nebraska, accompanied by John
/ Tay, on a visit 10 Pitcairn island After
organizing the missionary WORK az Pitcairn

islands IN the south seas
Elder Cudney left his wife and children

We Are Getting Healthier.

Nearly all physicians and well in
formed people generally now agree that
Americans are much more healthy than
they were forty years ago. Part of the
gain is due to the improvement of the
country in the way of drainage, more
to improved sanitation in city and vii
lage, but most of all to improved habits
Nearly all our popular amusements now
are healthful. Bodily weakness is al
most disgrace among men and is I'M
fashionable, at the least, among women.
In fact, the athletic young woman begins
to be sought after. Long may she wave.
