Nineteen Deaths at New York.

New YORK, June 30.-The relief from
the killing heat of the last week which
was promised today in the way of
thunderstorms did not materialize. In
stead the temperature increased, there
was less breeze than the day before
and the little air that did stir was sur
charged with heat. There was scarce
ly a cloud all day to shield the city
from the sun.
There was an increase in the fatali'
ties reported over yesterday though
the number Of prostrations was not
large. Up to midnight tonight 10
deaths had been recorded and 20 pros
trations The dead of yesterday mum
bered II. Today's maximum was SO.

mountains. But
fhere were three people at Black Rock
Horse ranch who were anything but
cool. In fact, Ferd, Florence and l
were as "hot" as we could well become
hot with Impotence and disgust.
For more than four weeks we had
been preparing for celebration,
picnic at our cottonwood grove, with
all the family and all our neighbors
along Black Rock creek TO join in max
ing a great day. Ferd, who had bor-
rowed some volumes of the Congress
sional Record from some local poll
tician, had written short address,
and Florence had practiced diligently
some patriotic songs. Moreover, we
had expended IS for fireworks, of a
magnitude worthy of the largest at
tainable crowd.
Our discontinue may be imagined
when | say that father, mother and
the younger children had failed in a
promised return from their visit at
Green River, and that, just two days
before the Fourth, report had reached
Black Rock Valley of a monster cele-
bration" which was to be held at
Lander, and to which every mothers
son and daughter in our neighborhood
had stampeded.
We were left alone, we three; so far
as we knew, there was not a soul left
within 25 miles of us.
We were, of course, still looking for
the return of our family from Green
River, but as tn, morning slipped
away and IL o'clock came, with no
sign of them, Ferd and gave ourselves
up to sullxing. We were lying upon our
backs in the shade of some cotton
woods near horse corral, when Flor
ence, who was still on the lookout,
shouted to us.
They're coming!" she cried, run
ming toward us and clapping her hands
joyfully. 81 can see the dust of their
wagon down the valley. Splendid!
splendid! Wen have a celebration all
to ourselves!" AS there are eight of
us altogether, the prospect was not
quite so disheartening.
Ferd and 1 sprang to our feet and
climbed the corral fence to look. What
we saw was flying trail of dust rising
above a point about a mile distant.
A glance, however, showed our more
practiced eyes that the dust cloud was
altogether too great to be kicked up
by span of mules and spring wagon,
That's not Them" declared Ferd, in
disgust. Its a stampede of horses or
cattle" A faint roar of trampling
hoofs soon bore to our ears the proof
of his assertion. The dust cloud in
creased in volume, and the mutter of
pounding hoofs Jared like distant
rumble of thunder.

In the Don just behind the main

%pretentious looking glass case bearing
the following label: Remains OF a
large ground sloth and associated
mammals from a cavern in southern
Patagonia. Lent by DR.. f. p. Moreno,
corresponding member geological So
ciety; director La Plata museum The
Ease fails to attract public attention,
although its contents are undoubtedly
the most interesting the museum pos
sesses at the present time. There is
an element Of romantic suspense sur
rounding the piece of skin, the skull
and the other remains exposed to view
which would surely hold the attention
OF the passer-by IL he did but know
wherein law the romance. Yet one
would think that a glance at the piece
Of skin which has its back covered
with, as It were, a tesselated pavement
of bone, would alone catch the wan
dering attention Of the person merely
doing the museum" for it is like no
skin which he has ever seen before. It
is unlike the skin of any living NAM
NAL with the exception Of a certain
family resemblance to the existing tree
climbing sloth and %ant-eaters of South
America. But these modern sloth crea-
lures are only the size Of a dog-ani-
mails to which this hair, this skin, this
skull, could not properly belong. The
smaller piece Of skin evidently fitted
round the neck of some large animal.
The question before scientists is, what
animal? Paleontologists, those VINO
study the fossil remains Of extinct an
imals, say that the bony m Of the
hide resembles that of the giant sloths,
a family Of huge monsters ranging
from ten to twenty feet from snout to
