Hotter Tha n Hades All Over the
State.


OMAHA, Neb., July ga more with
ering blast never swept across Saharah
than that which scorched the great
plain between the Missouri river and
the Rocky mountains. For two days
the wind had blown from the southeast.
and each day was hotter than its pre-
decessor. Yesterday the maximum
temperature was Sc deg. at the
highest point; today it was LOG.
From all over the territory sibutary
to Omaha, strip of 300 miles
north and south aud 500 miles east and
west come reports of the terrible effects
OF the hot winds. Wherever the
ground was already dry the growing
corn has been baked. Where there was
any moisture left there is still hope for
the crop. A rain in tWenty-tour hours
would be worth great deal OF money.
Small grain has been harvested gener-
ally and will suffer none. Potatoes
are faring better than corn. The
latter crop is just setting in
the ear, aud is therefore more
susceptible to the heat. A special from
Chadron says rain fell the re just after 5

The Affieck Funeral.
To the LIGHT.

l. U Ille LlGil.
Referring to the unexpected and haSty
interrment of the late George A lflecks
your valuable paper of MONDAYS issue,
contained an article under the caption of
Showed Little Respect" which does an
Injustice to and casts a serious reflection
upon the late friends and associates of
the deceased, including the better element
of sporting circles. The article, in
attributing the small attendance at the
funeral to anv neglect of or lack OF re-
Spect for fallen companion by the sport
ing fraternity, was evidently written
without knowledge of all the facts in
this particular case or comprehension of
the character in general of the generous
class of men with whom the deceased was
most closely associated.
Mr.. Atlleck was until almost within
a day of his unexpected
death circulating among his friends
in his wOnted health and
spirits and it is understood, suffered for
nothing Of which he stood in need
Through a misunderstanding as to the
time Of his funeral, most of his friends
were deprived of the privilege Of partici-
pating in the last sad offices of respect al
the grave. but nevertheless generously
contributed to defray all the expenses
necessary to decent and Christian
burial
This article is not intended in any de-
gree as an apology for the avocation oil
gaming, but those who are familiar with
the open handed charity and chivalrous
spirit of free masonry among the mer
who play cards" for a living, know
full well that they are the last to negleC'
one of their kind in case of sickness Of
death and among the most liberal con-
tributorS to Sweet Charity whenever hel
hand is stretched forth for aid.

| LONDON, Sept. ia dispatch
| to the Times from Wei Hal Wei
today says the commission of for.
eigners on examining the incident
of the naval fight of July 26, de.
clares the japanese the aggressors,
The Chinese,the commission states,
were careful to avoid an appear
ance of provocation but the Japa-
nese waylaid the Chinese, the
same going, it appears, and the
Japanese arriving, from Seoul and
attacked Chinese at Asan. These
operations were evidently we'll
concealed. The Chinese fleet is
now collected at Wei Hal Wei in
perfect fighting trim. The Chi
nese Yum has been repaired. Both
the Chinese and japanese armies
in Corea are seemingly inactive. A
dispatch from Shanghai today says
advices from various sources say
the Chinese army of northern
Corea is in a deplorable con-
dition. The Chinese generals
are reported to have proved them
selves grossly incompetent and
officers of the lower grades are dis
contented and disheartened, while
the rank and file are exhausted
and dispirited. The roads have
been washed away by floods and it
is impossible to transport guns, am
munition and food through Man
churia into Corea for the Chinese
army. Quantities Of guns, ammu-
milton and food have been blocked
in different parts of the country by
the bad state of the roads and food
and ammunition are said to be
spelling. AS result food is very
scarce in the Chinese army. Ac-
cording to this dispatch the pre-.
tense of the Chinese naval activity
is absurd. The japanese are said
to be maintaining such strict
blockade of the Corean coast, that
not the smallest vessel can get
through. Hundreds of Chinese
soldiers are reported to have died
of want and exposure, and much
sickness is said to exist in the
ranks. The Japanese are said to
be much better prepared for active
operations. They have succeeded
in keeping their lines of communi.
cation open and pushed their forces
until now they threaten the Chin
csc flank. The position of the lat
ter,with winter rapidly advancing,
threatens to become untenable.
Orders were sent from Pekin a
fortnight ago for all Chin.
csc squadrons to concentrate
in the gulf of Pechie ST.,
but these orders were never car
ried out and now peremptory or
ders have been sent for three of the
most powerful vessels of the south
ern squadron to join Admiral
Ling's fleet in the north. When
these arrive, it is asserted, the
Chinese fleet will commence opera
tions in earnest against the Japa-
nese. Raising money for war pur-
poses proceeds and the mandarius
commanding provinces and dis
tricts are squeezing the unfortu-
nate Chinese without mercy. Mer-
chants showing any hesitation
have their property confiscated.
