TWO DAYS THAT WERE SCORCHERSS.
The Mercury Reached l03 Saturday
and l06 Yesterday.
How to Keep Down the Inside Tenn
perature During Spells of
Intense Heat.

How fieshy people did suffer yesterday!
people perspired as if they were under
going steam baths.
The Weather Bureau reports show the
highest and lowest temperatures yester-
day to have been 106 and 49, with
light to gentle southerly winds and clear
weather prevailing.
The temperature at P. NJ. was l03'.
The barometrical readings at A. NJ. and
. P. NJ. were 29o and $3.50 inches, re-
spectively.
The relative amount Of moisture in the
air, to what it would contain il COM
pletely saturated, was quite small yester-
day, being but IL per cent, allowing sat
uration to be 100 per cent. This extreme
dryness OF the atmosphere is why there
are no prostrations from the heat.
The highest and lowest temperatures
one year ago Saturday were 95' and 630, i,
one year ago yesterday SSo and 81 anu
one year ago to-day o4' and 90.
Saturday night was one OF those nights
that we read about but seldom expert
ence in this city. The lowest tenpera-
ture was I30, while ut Red Bluff the low
est was 7S0.
The highest recorded temperature in
August in Il record OF eighteen years was
1OSo, on August ~, 1888. The highest on
Saturday was lU3o, it being I000 at . P. NJ.
The highest III Red Bluff was 1862, while
at P. NJ il was 1912 The wind in this
city was light and variable.
The way to keep a room cool in hot
weather is to close all windows and doors
between and O'clock in the morning
and keep them closed until good breeze
springs up alter sunset, or at least until
stars can be seen gathering in the sky.
Director Barwick says the highest on
Saturday outside the Weather Bureau
office was l03', while in the Office the
temperature reached but S0o, but had the
windows and doors been kept open the
| temperature inside would have been
within degree or two of that registered
outside.
The highest temperature outside yes
terday was 1862, while the highest in the
office was $50 being 230 cooler than the
outside air.
Therefore" says Barwick, when
heated waves pass over the city keep
your windows and doors closed and your
mind in a tranquil and restful state, and
the heat viii not bother you"
The highest temperature at Red Bluff
| yesterday WAS ll00, while at D P. N. ii was
| l0So.
At San Francisco the mercury rose to
920, and at P. NJ. it was So, showing it TO
have been quite hot in that city. where
the atmosphere is much more humid
than here.

PARDON REFUSED.
Governor Markham says Mrs. Martii
Cannot Go Free.

Governor Markham says Mrs. Martin
Cannot Go Free.
DR.. G. r. Mansfield, Resident Physi-
clan at San Quentin Prison, has written
to Governor Markham concerning the
case of Mrs. Martin. who is serving a ten
years sentence there for swindling a Kiss
Leonard of Oakland out of $4,000, in
which the doctor states that an operation
is necessary to relieve the prisoner of a
tumor, but that she refuses to be operated
on in the prison and wants to be par
doned.
Governor Markham has been frequently
appealed to for the pardon of Mrs. Martin,
but he declines to grant it for the follow
ing reasons:
cation for pardon, and find absolutely
nothing to her credit. Everything points
TO the tact that the woman is guilty of the
crime charged against her.
District Attorney Shook of Alameda
County, who presented the case of Mrs.
Martin in lengthy communication. un-
hesitatingly Stales that she is dangerous
woman. lie carefully reviews the evil
dence in the case and asserts that she has
been feigning sickness purposely to avoid
being sent to San Quentin.
HE further stated that the prisoner is
one of the most dangerous criminals that
the authorities OF Alameda County ever
dealt with, and concluded by saying that
the punishment meted out to her was
none too severe. From his statement 1
believe that Mrs. Martin should serve out
her sentence. According to the most re-
liable information she is cunning
woman, who stopped to take advantage
of supplemented women. The authori-
ties OF Oakland are convinced OF her
guilt, and even assert that she has no
equal as confidence operator.
For these reasons | have determined
to deny her application for pardon"

RIGHTS OF WITNESSES
They May Escape Detention by Giving
Bonds TO Appear.

They May Escape Detention by Giving
Bonds TO Appear.
On the 18th instant Justice Devine held
George Eubanks to answer for robbing a
young German named George Frank in
box-car on Front street.
In order to insure Franks attendance
in the Superior Court to testify against
Eubanks, Judge Devine made an order
that he be kept in custody or else give a
bond.
Saturday morning c. NJ. Beckwith, on
behalf of Frank, called the courts atten-
ton to a provision in the statutes TO
the effect that if witness ordered de-
tanned to testify in a case could not
give bond to insure his attendance at
trial, the court must take his deposition
and then order his release from custody.
Justice Devine saw no other course to
pursue, and ordered Franks release.
1t is said by some attorneys that but
few members of the profession know of
the existence OF this law, and had it been
generally known many a complaining
witness ordered into custody to insure
their attendance in court when wanted
would have been released, and number
OF guilty persons charged with felony
have escaped punishment.

A HEINIOuS CRIME.

Jacob Ueffner Arrested for the Assault
on the Barceili Child.
Some three weeks ago little girl, the
daughter OF Frank Barcelli, was the vic
tim of brutal assault by young man
near .Guthrie's Station, just east of the
city, and ever since then Sheriff O'Neil
has been OF the lookout for the perpe-
traitor of the outrage, who disappeared
Immediately after the commission of the
crime.
The little girl and another who was
with her at the time gave perfect de-
scriptIon OF The asSaIlant, and Sheriff
O'NeiI has been confident that his ident-
lily was we'll known.
A young man named Jacob Heffner
was srrcs ted at Coliax on Saturday by
Deputy Sheriff O'Neil, ami is now in the
County Jail. He admits that he was IN
the vicinity OF Gutnrle's Station on the
day the crime was committed, but denies
that he is the guilty person. However,
that fact can be determined by the little
girls.
There was also another charge against
Hetfner-that OF stealing pistol from
Delos Bennett, and this charge he admits
to be true.
The prisoner is about Is years of age.
He formerly lived with his parents just
outside the city, but they are now in

should protect all men in their right to

here, protect his right, but as to letting
