The Pearce-Abbott contest was hard

broken for the 30th and the 31st of May and
the 1st 2d and Sd Of June, but much
more important record has been smashed.
This is a grand total of five record-break-
ing days in succession. Never before in the
history of the local weather department has
anything of this nature occurred before.
1t is safe to say that at least twenty-five
people have died during the past five days
as d result Of the heated term and that
over $50 have been prostrated and taken
to the different hospitals Of the city. A
good many of those taken TO the different
public institutions will not recover. The

the longest on record. Thus far ten peo-
