Charles Hall, IS years old, happened to pass
in the vicinity and a stone struck him over
the heart, knocking him senseless. At about

THE INTENSE HEAT.
Residents Of Warrington Svvelterin
Under the Fervent Sun. s.1-.

Residents of Warrington Svvelterina
Under fhe Fervent Sun. .,..-y
Animate nature in this vicinity sweltered,
szzled, suffocated and suffered today from
the very rising of the sun. The earliest
hours were full of steam. The air seemed
to be saturated with moisture, like that
which pervades the hot room Of Turkish
bath, and If a strong breeze had not
sprung up about 8 o'clock and assisted in
the evaporation of the other moisture
that bathed humanity in constant coat
of uncomfortable sickness, there's no
telling what would have happened.
Even after the breeze began life was
scarcely tolerable to any one who wore
something more substantial than pajamas.
The direct rays of the sun were terrific.
1t seemed as though the famous old orb
of day had determined to follow the suit
of the Washington Base Ball Club and
show what it could really do, in spite Of a
protracted period of inertia; and, II so, 1t
got in its ticks with vengeance.
The concrete grew soft to the tread of
horses and humans alike, and poured back
the heat it received from the sun with al
most equal energy. During the noon hours
persons who stopped in drug stores to cool
off with soda saw the thermometers hung
in the entrances, where the sun never
reaches, registering 80 and 81. The proph-
cts who had confidently announced a cool
summer swabbed their shamed faces and
kept discreet silence. =
The clouds which began to gather about
l o'clock were grateful even to the votaries
of the national game, and most OF them
prayed for rain as ardently as they had
begged for leave from their offices to see
the double event today.
In short, June % was a caloric corker In
Washington, and everybody knew it, no
matter how decollete their costumes might
be or how near their proximity to an cleo
trio fan.

DICK TO BE IN CHARGE
Senator Hanna Will Not Double Up
With Governor Bushnell.
Two SEPARATE CAMPAIGNS IN Ohio
Senator Said to Have Doubts Of the
Governor Reelection.
FA riley FOR M'LEAN

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
CLEVELAND. June 25.-There is every
indication that there will be two separate
campaigns conducted by the republicans
of Ohio this fall Senator Hanna has de.
cIded to intrust his interests almost en-
tirely to Secretary Charles F. Dick. 1t
has therefore been practically agreed upon
that the legislative ticket In this state will
be under the direct generalship of Major
Dick 1t is reported by those who are neal
to the throne that Senator Hanna does
not believe Governor Bushnell will carry
Ohio this fall. He has decided, however,
not to antagonize him by insisting on the
appointment of Major Dick as chairman Of
the executive committee
VIII BE a Compromise Man.
The next chairman will probably not be
appointed for a week or ten days. 1t is
learned on the highest authority that Sem
ator Hanna and Governor Bushnell will
decide upon the man.
This arrangement was made at Toledo
this morning. and was the only concession
that Hanna made TO Bushnell. Port clans
here believe that the whCie strength Of
the national mnistration was thrown
Into the night for control of the state or
ganiZation at Toledo. Indeed, it is common
talk that the phenomenal success of the
Hannaites was due in part to the judicious
promising of patronage.
Gov Bushnell had no such patronage to
distribute, and the office seekers swarmed
around Senator Hanna.
