1t has been hot enough in Savannah for
the past two weeks. But when we con-
slider how the great cities of the north and
west have suffered. we are led to the con-
clusion that Savannah has been almost an
ideal summer resort in comparison with
them. The heat here has been tempered
by breezes from the ocean, and the beau
tiful trees in the streets. parks and
squares have afforded most grateful
shade. besides imparting a freshness to
the atmosphere. On the other hand. pros
trations and deaths have been the portion
Of the more northern cities. In New York
and vicinity up to Tuesday night there
had been LOO prostrations from heat. of
which 176 cases had proved fatal In New
York city alone the record for Tuesday
was 2S7 prostrations and sixty-fve deaths
A scourge of fever would probably NOT
have claimed a greater number of vic
tins. And Chicago's record is almost as
bad as New Yorks.

A Norwegian has invented a Geographic
apparatus for communicating with a ship
at anchor without the use of a direct
wire. The salient feature of the appara-
tus is a cable from the land with its sea
ward end in the form of a great loop. say
200 feet in diameter. The ships anchor is
dropped anywhere within this loop.and the
Telegraphic instrument on board is con
nected with the anchor chain. The in
duction between the cable and the anchor
and chain is sufficient to operate the in
struments on land and on board ship. The
inventor, having demonstrated that tele-
graphic communication can be so estab-
hshed, is now at work to get rid of the
Geographic key and substitute the onan
telephone. The advantages that would re-
suit during times of war from such a mode
OF communication between ship and shore
are apparent.

There is nothing slow about the bust
ness men of Holyoke, Mass. When bust
ness is dull. they do something to stimu-
late it. 1t is little dull just now. in at
least one particular line. An undertaken

apples to his friends with this message:
Business is dull; must make a move for
trade" The joke was enjoyed, but wheth-
er the enterprising undertaken had the
satisfaction of seeing his business boom

Schrader, the divine healer" has fallen
into disrepute at Fort Worth, Tex. He
was blessing handkerchiefs there the
other day at great rate. when the report
got out that he had said he had all the at
tributes of Christ. and could even walk on
the water. 1t occurred that he was near
a lake at the time. and the crowd called
on him for a demonstration of his water
walking powers. He hesitated, and the
crowd became annoyed and impatient
Many persons started towards him with
the purpose in view of making him walk
the water or throwing him into the lake
The timely arrival of the police saved
Schrader from a wet jacket. Since he
failed to walk the water. his crowds have
fallen away.

Herr Lilienthal, "the man who flies"
as he was popularity called In Germany,
has fallen victim TO his own creation.
His flying machine was probably the
nearest to practicability OF any of the nu-
merous machines that are being built and
experimental with by scientists. 1t could,
indeed. bear a man through the air. But
it was not perfectly tractable Herr Lii
ienthal started to fly from a hilltop with
the apparatus. and fell and sustained fatal
injuries. Lilienthals theory was that
birds do not exercise great power in
flight, but keep afloat in the air by the
particular way in which their wings catch
the air. He built his flying machine along
the lines of this theory. There was no
tapping of wings by the apparatus; it
rather sailed than flew. He was asked
not long ago If he were not afraid the APP
paratus would get out of order some time
and tumble him to the ground. His reply
was that it was so constructed that in
case of accident the aeroplanes would act
as a parachute, and let him down gently.
1t seems, from the manner of his death.
that he had made a miscalculation at
least in this particular.

Deposits in the savings banks of New
York city were increased in the fiscal
year ending July l last to a greater ex-
tent than in any other similar period in
the past five years. This is not to be
taken, presumably, as an indication of
increased prosperity of the poorer classes;
but rather of the more general employ
ment Of these banks by timd investors
Of some means for whose accommodation
the banks were never intended. Appear
ances indicate that the Massachusetts
savings banks have been made much the
same use of since the panic of 1898.

system has thoroughly investigated the
probable cost of equipplng the company's

the operating expenses of the system
would be reduced 1874 per cent. after the
change from steam had been made. That
can only mean that We are rapidly ap-

Baboura, the First Created Woman.

According to our Biblo and traditions
in general, tho first woman was Adams
"hclpmcet' tho ono We call Eve Tho
Hebrew Talmudists tell OF another and
previous wife of Our Father Adam" If
we aro to believe their story there was a
woman created on the samo day when
Adam was fashioned from the dust of tho
earth. This first woman was Lilith She
proved Il faithlcss wife and finally clopcd
with satan becoming the mother of devils
Some little time after this Adam sighed
for Il now wife, and 1t was then that God
caused tho famous sleep which resulted
in the first man losing ono Of his ribs and
getting wife instead.
But tho people (nativcs) Of Madagascar
don't believe any such tame tales. They
know AL about tho first woman and how
she camo into tho world. According to
thcir story, her name was Baboura, and
her modo of entering the world WAS some
what peculiar. The first man, like our
Father Adam, was placed in garden.
One of Tie bramblcs growing therein, and
which he had neglected to remove, was
we'll provided with thorns. One of these
prickcd the leg of tho lonely man, causing
boil to form thereon. When that first
Madagascar boil burst, II woman sprang
out through it. This was Baboura, the
first woman of Madagascar.
The above legend is very curious in the
light Of the fact that there arc dozens of
native sea islanders who believe that the
first woman entered this world through
somo sort of sore on "a mans body.-St.

Cold Drawn stee, Tubing.

Tho cold drawn process is now largely
resortcd to in tho production of steel tub
ing and is great factor in the construc-
ton of tho bicycle and involves machinery
both ponderous and powerful. One Of tho
methods employed consists in taking q
piece of steel In tho shape of bar, or In
got This is bored through tho center
and it is then passed through n die, after
which it is heated and treated to q bath in
secret preparation, which removes the
temper that the drawing process imparts.
This is repeated q number of times, each
die used being smaller than its predecessor,
with the result that the tube grows small
or and longer. This Is continued until
the tube. is of the right diameter and
gauge. Tho drawing out of piece of

WATER NOT POPULAR.
A Medical View of Its Use Three Centuries

1t needed n very bold man to resist tho
medical testimony of three centuries ago
against water drinking. Fow writer's can
DO found to shy good word for it, Ono
or two only are concerned to maintain
that, ''whon begun in early lifo, it may BIO
pretty freely drunk with impunity,' and
they quote tho curious instance given by
Sir Thomas Elyot in his "Castlo Of
Health, 1911, of tho Cornish men, "many
of tho poorer sort, which mover, or very
seldom, drink any other drink, be not
withstanding strong Of body and like and
live well until thoy DO Of great nge."
Thomas Cognn, tho medical schoolmaster
of Manchester famo, confessed in his
"Haven of Health" 1880, designed for
tho uso of students, that ho know some
who drink cold water ut night or fasting
in tho morning without hurt, and Dr.
James Hart, writing about so yenrs later,
could oven claim among his acquaintance
"somo honorable and worshipful ladies
who drink little other drink, and yet enjoy
moro perfect health than most of thom
that drink OF tho strongest. Tho pho
nomcnon was undcniablc, but tho natural
Inference was mono tho less to DO resisted.
