HOT WAVE PHILOSOPHY.

When all the sky seems blazing down and
 sunshine curls the bricks And General Humidity puts in his biggest
 licks, welcome to my eyrie with a moist and
 dripping palm A placid old philosopher who runs a little
 farm, Who says imagination helps deal in keep-
 ing cool, And who to comfort other men makes this
 his simple rule: To talk of piping, biting days, and drifting
 winter storm Whene'er the weather pipes 1t up and gets
 too thunderin' warm. They're better far than fizz or smash or
 juleps, sure's you're born, The honest little narratives of Frigid
 Weather John. For though the sizzling summer time may
 boil and steam and hiss, Who'd ever, ever think of it while listening
 to this? 'T never seed a winter have a darnder,
 sharper aidge Than in the year of sixty-one, the year that
 I drove stage. I never had so hard job attendin' to my
 biz For everything twas frizzable that year
 you bet was friz. At last done a caper that hadn't done
 for years, I got a little careless and friz up both
 my ears. The roads was awful drifted and trod ten
 miles of snow And all the time that thund'rin' wind did
 nothin', sah, but blow. Them ears of mine was froze so hard.

 blew at such a rate. And when at last hauled up home, the

 going to lose your ears But I-why, land O goodness, I was cooler'n
 I be now" And he passed his read bandanna up across

 in the shed A-holdin' them two junks of ice to either
 side my head. The chunks weighed fifty pounds apiece
 that doctorin' didn't cost, And so I got 'em big enough to take out
 all the frost. My wife at last came out to see what made
 me keep so still And there I was, sah, sound asleep and
 snorin' fit to kill. She got me in and gave me tea and helped
 me inter bed With that ere ice a-frozen tight and solid

SOUND TALK.


 Ainsworth, Senators Shoup and Clark and Commissioner Hermann were given a banquet at Phoenix. or the many notable speeches made that of MT. Hermann is of special significance nd in addi- tion to his knowledge of a section that comes under his special juris- diction, as ths head of the land de- partment of the nation, the logic of his words is indeed refreshing to all Arizonans. He said:
 "It was years and years ago, that the great Berkeley expressed the eloquent prediction, Westward the star of empire takes its way" and we, your guests on this occasion, have been travelling from the great capital of our nation until we have traversed nearly three thousand miles of this wonderful republic. We expected long before we reached tais point to see the traditional frontier of our country, but up to this date we have failed in this ex- pectation; and wherever we have gone we have encountered a pro gressive, energetic and enthusiastic American citizenship. We find here in what so many of the east have re- garded as the Great American desert,' the very highest type of American civilization. Much of this we had expected because we are western men, but after all it is a revelation to us. Within your do- mains you have 72,50O,0O0 acres of land-a greater area than that of the United Kingdom, France, the German empire, or Spain, and of this vast area you have 5,000,000 acres capable of cultivation by irri- gation, and the water supply is sui fcent if properly made available, to make arable every one of these 5,- OOO,OOO acres. Five million acres can be brought under as high state of cultivation as that which we have beheld in the neighborhood of your beautiful city.
 "But few years ago we read the horrid tales of Indian outrage in Arizona, and I regret to say that many of our eastern friends do not realizs that you have transformed the picture. I agree with our be- loved friend to my left (F. NJ. Mur- phy) that it is to be regretted that more of our statesmen do not visit your territory. Their impressions need to be corrected by personal in vestigation and experience, such as we, your guests, are now going through. When it is suggested that the people of Arizona are illiterate, we point to the report made by your and patriotic governor, and say to the people of the eastern states that 95 per cent of your pOpu- lation can read and write the English l language. There are few states or of this Union that can come up to this mark"
 The commissioner then turned to the patriotic record made by Ari- zona in the war with Spain, pointing pat that the citizens of Arizona 1 were the first to volunteer, the first 10 shed their blood, and the first at the storming of San Juan hill, in making very touching tribute to the memory of Captain | Bucky O'Neill. He closed with an eloquent plea for recognition of the rights to statehood. As Senator Clark had wittily predicted, the audiences found that the con- missioner was better posted on the affairs of the territory than is the average citizen of the territory.

Yale's varsity Crew Covers four Miles IN 10
Minutes and 80 Seconds.
GALES FERRY. June ,s-According to good
authority Yale's Varsity crew tonight rowed
four miles In 20 minutes and 80 seconds. After
nearly a week s practice at padding and pulling
short stretches the crew started from the
float about 9 O'Clock. ostensibly for the
purpose Of rowing Town the four-mile course on
time. II was e20S0 when the Ell eight
passed the small white post which marks the
starting point. The men were well under way.
owing a stroke Of 81 TO the minute. when
they crossed the line. The stroke was
clean. and the shell slided along with great
steadiness. Coach Gallaudet With watch in
hand was in the bow Of the launch and John
Kennedy. who vas Bob Cooks risht-hand boat
rigger. was plotting the steamer. The launch
was unable to keep up with the Grew and was
quite a distance astern when the last half-mils
was rowed.. A light northeast wind and an ebb
The entire eight appeared to be In rood con-
dition at the finish, so the workmen on the big

cess the oarsmen had on their TIP down the river,
Mhile no oficial in. ormation could be obtained
as 10 what the speed record was. the quiet
smiles and air Of satisfaction displayed by
every one about the quarters plainly showed
h tnI1 sSEdiTh The ' time Credited 70 the
eight IL at least a half minute better
than Harvard has done since her
arrival here. The stock Of the Blue oarsmen
has gone up considerably in CONSEQUENCE, and
Il Ii conceded that the crack crew the harvard
admirers have been lauding will have to put In
considerable practice to equal the exhibition Of
the New Haveners.
Neidecken was put back In the Varsity boat
to-day and Mitchell went back to the foul oars.
All the crews were hindered In their practice
this morning on account OF the strong breeze.
Yale's crews went over to Horizons Cove
for awhile, the freshmen having their morn
ing row cut short by an accident to one Of
the o%ut-riggers. The boat was ready for
the eight this evening and Coach
Brown gave considerable attention TO the
stroke after the 'varsitytcrew was through with
the launch. The two four-oared crews were
mansuvrine of Harvard's- boathouse at 7
O'Clock this evening. They finally started up-
stream together and had a friendly brush for
half a mile, the Varsity being slightly In the lead
at the finish.
Harvards crews got hard practice this after
noon of the quarters, The Varsity four was
the only boat in which a shift was made. Bull
lard and Guy Bancroft changed positions, Bull
lard being put at stroke and Bancroft taking
Billiards seat at2 1t IL expected that speed
tests viii be given to the Harvard crews to-
morrow and fair weather Ia hoped for.
