Comparisons are sometimes suggestive and agreeable. Compare, for example, the delightful weather we are now enjoy ing with that which caused us to groan just year ago. On September 20, 895, a severe hot wave swoOped down on this part of the country, and there was no let up until three days later On the 2Oth the thermometer broke records by run ming up to- 98 degrees, but that wasn't 8 circumstance to what happened the next day, which, with temperature of 97 de- grees, was the hottest day of the year, ,and the fourth hottest since the establishment of the Weather Bureau and the beginning of official records. The next day was also memorable, the mercury attaining the lofty point of 96 degrees. The hot wave which visited us early in August this year was quite enough for one season, and we may count ourselves happily rid of the period of extreme heat which in several recent years has come on us in September. Now that the equinox has been reached, we need have little fear of another hot spell this year.

The annual fair of the Holland County Agricultural Society at Rockville, last week, had threatening weather, but the receipts were larger than last year. The exhibits of stock and agricultural products were good but not as large as usual. The horse racing was never better, and the number of special attractions were much enjoyed. The fair, taken on the whole was the best held for many years.

LITTLE Loss FROM FIRE.
Only a Few Alarms With But Slight

of flame which came from the tailoring es-
tablishment of Nj. Simon. at 10 East Sew

without much trouble, and with very little
damage to the stock The fire is supposed
to have originated from the explosion of a
large lamp which is usually left burning in
the workroom in the rear of the store. Mr..
Simons could not say how much his loss was,
as he had not made careful examination of
the stock. He thought it would be in the
neighborhood Of 81. 200, and on the stock was
an insurance of SIS, GOO.

NO SERIOUS CASUALTIES REPORTED
In This Particular 1t Was Most
Remarkable Dny-HOw the
Time Was Spent.

Noisy discharges of fireworks. that
began early on Friday evening and
ceased only with the opening hour OF
Sunday, were the most noticeable feat
ures Of the Fourth of July in st. Paul.
A seemingly never-ending exodus to the
lakes and to the country began yester-
day morning. White Bear lake was a
particular favorite with thousands,
but the river excursions also attracted
enough people to tax the capacity Of
the boats. Como park had respect
able quote of visitors and picnickers
during the day. but it was not until
evening, after the ball games were
over, that the young folks tested the
extra cars to their limit. Shakopee,
Red Wing, Jordan and other nearby
towns drew several hundred people by
their wide-advertised celebrations.
while other hundreds made up parties
to spend the day at attractive places
of rendezvous in the country
The day was some what remarkable
from the fact that no serious casualty
is reported in the city or at any of the
lake resorts where ST. Paul people
usually spend their holidays. Seldom
indeed has Independence day passed
without the chronicling of some unto
ward happening which. has cast a
shade of gloom over the celebrants
This may be partly owing to the fact
that the number of people left in town
to take chances with the fireworks was
comparatively small In fact, at times
the streets seemed practically deserted.
There was very few arrivals at the
hotels. and hundreds of residences were
shut up for the day
q. Closed shops, stores and factories
were the rule, and the additional fact
that a day Of rest was to follow the
holiday furnished such an opportunity
for pleasure as comes all too seldom
to the working men and women. There
may be many tired and sunburnt peo-
pie to-day but there are very few who
will regret that they had chance to
honor the Fourth of July and enjoy
themselves at the same time.
