wind increased rapidly and soon at tained twenty-siX miles an hour. With the change in the wind the tempera- ture commenced to drop and by 4 o'clock it was 7S. degrees. The differ ence of fifteen degrees in three hours is unusually heavy. There was a gradual reduction in the temperature throughout the afternoon, until when evening came furs would have been the proper dress.
 Alexander McAdie who presides over the complex instruments of the weather bureau which record every mood of the climate, was jubilant when he found the wind changing from the direction of. the over heated north to the west. This was in keeping with his prediction for the day in which he said colder weather was in. store for this portion of the State.
 He explained the sudden rise of the temperature which transformed a

 City Fathers'th Richmond is Tn great need of better school. aceommedations than it has it present. 's'
 . The increase la .Richmond's population during the past. four years. has been such that the school buildings are entirely in in school children. who are anxious to at tend. As q result of this families where there were two -or more children were compelled to: divide the day, one portion of, them going in the forenoon and the other in the afternoon in order that, all of the children might obtain. at least some education rather than none at all.
 The Parents Club, an. organization late: ly started in. the Richmond district at the instigation of George R. Fletcher, presi- dent of the Point I4obos Improvement Club; has done much in bringing to the notice of the city authorities the .necessi- ties of the place. particularly on the school question. A large building Is needed in which all of the grades, up to the High School; can be taught Richmond people say they will. not consent to be treated as village in the future.

The men, not to be outdone.' appeared clothed in crash suits and other material of light weight With all these they could not keep cool The air. was surcharged with heat and there was no avenue of escape.
 The best that could be done was to consume soothing things, such as ice cream, mint juleps, sherry cobblers and gin fizzes, The dispensers of these were soon besieged by thirsty mob.
 Down on Leidesdorff and California streets Is a modest stand where fruits and drinks are sold. The bulk: of trade is usually in fruit, but yesterday ice cream and soda water had the call. All morning bank clerks and district mes senger boys stood in line slipping ice cream soda and consuming ice cream.

The soldiers at both Camp Merritt and Camp Barrett suffered intensely from the heat. Across the bay Captain w. s. Barnes, U. s. ". was in training for life. in the. Philippines and suffered for the glorious cause. His too, too solid flesh seemed. at the melting point and drops of precipitation chased one another uown his fiorid cheeks.
 The recruits who were being initiated into the mysteries of Lay foot, straw foot were anything but happy. Their heavy uniforms and arms were not conducive to comfort.
 An officer of the Montana regiment came into town early in the day dressed in a service suit of crash, topped off with a pith helmet. He did not know of the vagaries of the climate. Late in the afternoon when the wind blew he was an object of pit or ridicule in the eyes of passers by as he made his way to the camp in Richmond.

warm night into a hot morning: by at tributing 1t to the hot air forced oyer the mountains from the interior val leys. The'north wind which was pressed down into the valleys generated ad- ditional heat, which made it's escape over the mountains and into this dis trict. With the shifting of the wind to the westward it brought in it's wake the fog which soon had the effect of reduc- ing the temperature.
 The two extremes in this city were strangely accented. At noon there was not a breath of air stirring. In an hour the wind from the. ocean was whistling around the corners of streets wherever it had full sweep. Flags that had hung listless on their staffs fluttered and tugged at their halyards and the city was relieved from the domination of the sun.
 In the morning the summer girl In her endless variety was greatly in evil

 DISAPPEARS He Was a Gay Remit tance Man. MISSING FOR SEVEN DAYS RECENTLY BOUGHT A SALOON ON SIXTH STREET. Started for the Cliff House Last Saturday With Much Gold on
 His Person, but Never
 Came Back.
MISSING FOR SEVEN DAYS
RECENTLY BOUGHT A SALOON
 ON SIXTH STREET.

Carl Hoffman, a dashing young fellow and a remittance man of consequence, has disappeared in manner so mysterious as to indicate that the earth has opened and swallowed him up. He was a com parative stranger In the city. having been here only few months. Being somewhat overburdened with cash he was induced to "o into the saloon business at 10 Sixth street, which is the old Bavaria saloon.
 The partner of the missing man is Phillip Fuller, and the firm name is Hoff- man & Co. The place was opened about two and half weeks ago, and week ago Hoffman received the usual remittance from his parents in Ravensburg, Wurt- emberg, Germany. It Is said that he had been acting queerly of late, and some of his friends thought that his mind was fail ing
 However, on Saturday last he put about sl0O in his pocket and started out, saying that he was going to the Cliff House, and that he would be back by ? o'clock in the afternoon. He never came back, and now foul play is suspected by his friends, as they say that surely something would have been heard of him by this time.
 Hoffman is described as young Ger man of the. blonde type, about 24 years of age, 5 feet or inches in height, with a soft blonde mustache, He wore a suit of light material, had a gold watch and chain and several rings of value. He was a college man, and. had travelled exten- siyely throughout Europe, Asia, ,Austra- lia and America
 The suicide theory is discredited by his acquaintancesi. and they say that he is not in the habit of going of on a de- bauch in manner that would cause him to be.lost.
 The strange part of the affair Is that the matter has not been reported to the police, and no particular exertions have been made to recover the lost man, though he is presumed to own the prin- cipal interest if the business at 10 Sixth street

ASKS FOR A CHANGE OF VENUE.
Motion of Selma C1ewett's Attorneys
Will Be Argued ut Special Ses-
sion Next Saturday.

Whether Selma Clewetlt will secure
change Of venue for the trial of her
damage suit against the House of the
Good Shepherd will not be determined
until next Saturday.
The motion Of the plaintiffs attor-
ney, Charles Butts, was to be argued
at special term yesterday, but, owing
to Mr.. Butts failure to serve, in due
time. upon counsel for the defense, the
af1ldaVits upon which his motion is
based, the matter was not finally dis
posed Of
The matter was heard before Judge
Bum. Mr.. Butts made a formal mo-
ton Tor, a change Of venue, which the
court denied, as no affidavits in SUD-
port of the motion had been filed in
time. But upon the application of Mr..
Butts the court granted an order re-
curing the counsel for the defense to
show cause at special term next Satur-
day why a change of venue should not
be granted.
Mr.. Butts has presented several af-
fldaVltS to the court in support of his
contention that Selma Clewett cannot
expect justice at the hands of a Jury
of Ramsey county citizens.
The chief affiant is the plaintiff her
self. In her affidavit Miss Clewett de-
ciares that the prejudice against her
and her case in Ramsey county is such
as TO preclude the possibility of a fair
trial in this county
She further alleges that while not to
exceed rs per cent of the voters of
Ramsey county are Roman Catholics,
at least So per cent of the present petty
jury panel in the district court are
Romanists.
Affidavits signed by residents of the
Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh,
Eighth and Ninth wards were also sub
mitted. Each affiant, one of whom is
Mr.. Butts himself, of the Ninth ward,
declares that a fair trial of the case
is no longer possible in Ramsey coun-
ty.
The remaining affidavits are signed
by the following citizens:
Robert Johnson of the Sixth ward; John
w. Wood of the Third ward; H. Schroeder,
of the Eighth ward; Frank w. Gadbois, of
the Eighth ward; F. NJ. Arbuckle, of the
Sixth ward; John P. Carlson, of the Sew
enth ward: E. M. W. Scott, of the Sixth
ward H. H. Kent of the Fifth ward A. G.

Sunday afternoon. There are two de-
partments of the school, primary and
intermediate. In all about fifty Sun
day school workers are engaged in the
work, thirty in the intermediate and
twenty in the primary
On account Of the crowded condition
of the intermediate department, the
primary department was moved into
vacant store on East Seventh street,
near the bridge, and with the erection
OF the new building both departments
will assemble under one roof in much
more commodious quarters.
The primary department is in charge
Of Miss Grace Williams, who is the as
sistant principal of the teachers train
ing school, and whose untiring efforts
to promote the well being of the school
have done much to build up the school
to Its present standing in the COM
munity

More 1nen would succeed in carrying out
their life purposes If they would put their
constitutions in strong, forceful, high con-
dition, without waiting until disease has
plunged its axe into their vital organs. If
a man who Is using up his working vitality
faster than his nutritive powers supply it,
will use DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery as an adjunct to his daily meals, it
will give the digestive organs power to

Mr.. Jos, Henderson Drblun, Of 14 Josephine
Street, New Orleans, La, writes to Dr.. Pierce !:
" I was ailing for sorue years suffering from
dyspepsia, tired feeling aud loss of energy and
appetite. tried one bottle of Or. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and found great re-
lief. took two more bottles three in all, and
one or two bottles of the Pellets when I
