HOT SEPTEMBER DAYS.
Mercury Goes to 100 and Breaks
the Record for That Date.

The Weather Bureau reports show
the highest and lowest temperatures
yesterday to have been 100 and 50 de-
grees, with gentle northerly winds and
clear or hazy weather prevailing, and
few clouds floating in the air.
The highest and lowest temperatures
one year ago yesterday were rs and
81 degrees, and one year ago to-day
40 and 54 degrees.
The average temperature was so and
the normal 6S, showing yesterday to
have been i degrees warmer than
usual for the 23d day of September.
River, feet Z inches and steady.
The maximum temperature of 100 de-
grees at o'clock last evening breaks
the Weather Bureau records for such
a high temperature so late in the
month.
During the last twenty three years
the highest temperatures for the first
ten days in September was 105 de-
grees on the 10th, 1888. The highest
temperature during the second ten
days in September was 106 on the 11th,
1888
The highest temperature during the
last ten days of September was 101
degrees, on the 22d, 1883. This shows
the temperature Of 100 degrees yes
terday (the 23d) was one day later
than ever before recorded 1t will be
plainly seen that September can be
classed with our hot months, as the
above high temperature by decades will
show.
Exactly two months ago yesterday
the highest temperature was 100 de-
grees, being the 23d day of July, which
mum temperature of 100 and above,
as follows: July 18th, 102; 10Th, 101 !;
23d, 100. During the month of July
there were thirteen days with a maxi
mum temperature above so.
During the present (falD month there
have been fifteen days with a tempera-
ture above 80 degrees
During the whole of the three sum-
mer months there were but twenty
seven days with a temperature above
so, distributed as follows: June 18th,
July 18th and August Sd.
The average daily excess of temper
ature during this month to date has
been about 3 degrees above normal.
The total deficiency of temperature,
as compared with the normal since
January 1st is sbut IL degrees, and this
IL degrees divided by the number of
days (263) since January 1st gives the
daily deficiency from normal, which is
about four one hundredth of one de-
gree for each day. This month so far
has been most excellent for the raisin
makers and fruit driers.

STATE GAME SOCIETY.
The Sacramento Protective Assoc
ciation,s idea Grows

| Members of the Sacramento Game
Protective Association have been CORE
spending with sportsmen all over the
State relative TO organizing a State
society. They have received much en-
couragement from various sections The
following from the San Jose HERALD
will please Sacramentans who are in
terested in game projections:
AT the meeting of the Santa Clara
County Fish and Game Protective AS
sociation various matters of much in
terest came up for consideration. Pres
ident Barker desired the use of the
floor and called Vice President H
Prindle to the chair. New members
were admitted as follows: d. M. Bur-
nett, James w. Dixon, Jerome L. Van
derwerker, F. Koenig, T. Lahan, Fred
Schumacher, Lew c. Black and E. J.
Sterling.
DIR. Barker called attention to the
expense to the club of keeping patrol
men in the field This is material but
is being met. He hoped that at the
next meeting of the Legislature the
law can be so amended that all fines
secured through conviction of offend
ers will go to the clubs, where there are
such regular organizations. DR.. Barker
as President was authorized to pay out
the money of the special fund on just
demands.
DIR. Barker also reported concerning
the organization of a club at Santa
Clara with about fifty members. It
was suggested that joint meeting be
held at Santa Clara with the club and
this will probably be done.
William Donovan believed it would
be Well to appoint a committee on the
organization of auxiliary clubs of Gil
roy, Los Gatos and other points. P.
H. Doble believed this a good idea as
some of the places could not support
Independent clubs. He preferred the
latter whenever possible. Messrs. Ran
dali, Brockage and Prindiville spoke
along the same lines.
'The chair appointed Dr. Barker,
VIM. Donovan, F. C. Sherrer, P. H.
Doble and Frank Brockage as the COM
mittee
"P. H. Doble was appointed to pre-
pare an article on the game laws of
this county and furnish it to the press
for publication.
president Barker was instructed to
confer with President Jordan and in
vite HIM to lecture on Fish of the Pa
cific Coast for the benefit of the asso-
citation.
Several gentlemen spoke on the ne
cessity of a State organization. DR..
Barker and Messrs. Doble and Prindi-
vile were especially earnest in this.
The Secretary was instructed to write
DR.. Hibbard of Western Sports and
tell him of the wish for a State or
ganization and assistance. Other clubs
over the State will also be notified"

Piles are painful, persistent, hard to
cure, but they can be cured. There is
just one remedy that will do it. 1t is

RISING OF THE RIVERS.
The Usual Spring Floods Are Max
ing Their Appearance.
CHARLESTON Is UNDER WATER.

westVirginia'sCapital Feels the Force
ofthe Floods-The Kanawha, Big san
dy.Elk, Licking and Kentucky Rivers
Pouring Big Floods Into the Ohio.
Cincinnati, March 6.--During the last
few days tlSare has been heavy rain
fall, principally south and east OF the
Ohio river, extending from below the
kentucky river up to Morgantown, w.
Va. Last night two-thirds of Charles.
ton w. Va, was under water. The river
at that point last night was Al feet and
two-hfths of an inch, which equals the
highest previous record at that point
The United States engineer says it will
likely reach one foot higher. On the
north side Of the Ohio the streams are
full, but not dangerous. Above Parkers-
burg to the source of the river the
streams are high, but not at all danger
GUS to the extent of those in West Vir-
ginia aid Kentucky.
The weather bureau at this point sent
out last night danger signals to Point
Pleasant, Catlettsburg and Portsmouth
The heaviest rise is in the Great Kama
wha, but the Little Kanawha, the Big
Sandy, the Licking and the Kentucky
rivers are pouring in tremendous floods
The weather is windy, clear and cold.
This, together with the fact that in the
warm weather of the ten days preceding
this storm all the snow was melted in
the mountains and the foods therefrom
carried well down the river, may pre-
vent a serious flood.
At all points on the Ohio river from
Gallipolis down to the Kentucky river
the Ohio is rising. At Catettsburg.
where the Big Sandy comes in, it is high
est, 40 feet, and rising six inches an
hour. AT Point Pleasant, at the mouth
of the Kanawha. it is Al feet, and rising
six inches hourly. At Portsmouth it is
4S feet, and rising rapidly. There seems
to have been trough of very heavy
rainfall in West Virginia between the
base of the Alleghenies and the Ohio
river.
At Cincinnati the river is 80 feet, and
has been rising three inches per hour for
the last 10 hours. Unless the floods in
the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers
should prove much greater than antici-
pated, and thus cause some back water,
the maximum stage here at Cincinnati
will probably not exceed SO feet, unless
there is more rain. Should it reach that
stage it will stop cars from running into
the Union Central station.
