VICTIMS of THE HEAT.

Every summer the cities of the North
for brief periods. suffer intensely from
hot weather. In some summers there are
two or three of these excessively warm
spells. lasting FIVE or six days each. This
year a hot spell, beginning in the last
days of June, has been one of the worst
on record, judging from the number of
its victims. It is impossible of course
to give an accurate statement of the
number of persons who have died from
the effects of the heat, but there is no
doubt that it is appallingly large. More
than a thousand deaths were reported up
to Thursday. The number in New York
alone on Wednesday was 80.
And while the heat was killing hun
dreds in cities as far West as ST. Paul
hot winds were Destroying the crops in
Kansas, Nebraska and some other West
ern states. So great has been the de-
struction of human beings, beasts of
burden and crops that the newspapers
have surrendered a large part of their
news columns to accounts of It,
Northern people think OF the South as
n place TO get away from IN the sum-
mer, yet 1t is a safe assertion that there
is more real comfort in almost any part
of the Southern states during the sum
mer season than there is in the North
crn cities. II is true that the Southern
summer is long, lasting pretty nearly six
months, but 1t is seldom that there are
deaths In Southern cities from heat. 1t
Is an unusual thing TO hear of people
sleeping on the tops OF houses or In the
streets because of the imposslbility of
sleeping in the houses.
Here in Savannah the present summer
has been quite pleasant. There have been
some warm days, but with one or two
exceptions the nights have been cool
People are able 10 get rest at night. and
consequently feel refreshed In the MORN
ing. Nobody has been Frustrated by the
heat. Mechanics have gone on with their
building operations and business men
have attended 10 business. just as II the
weather was all that could be desired.
Northern people will have To come South
In the summer as well as In the winter
II they want the comforts OF a good cli-
mate all the year around.

RETAIL MERCHANTS SATISFIED.

The retail merchants OF the city are
very well satisfied with the amount of
business they have been doing the past
week. The weather has been warm of
course, though nothing like that which
has prevailed in about all of the North
ern cities. II has not been too warm to
visit the stores or for people to come
to town from the country.
No doubt the activity in the stores is
due to some extent to the number of ex-
cursions. There have been many of them
lately. People from the anterior are here
because the railways have been offering
inducements. Besides. Savannah is a
very pleasant place to visit in the sum-
mer. The seashore is only thirty-five
minutes distance by rail and there are
electric lines that carry people in a few
minutes to very attractive suburban re-
sorts. The fare on these lines is so low
as hardly to be an item in the expenses
of an excursionist out for a days pleas
ure.
The merchants of course approve of the
excursions because every one who comes
" the CITY leaves iluTt OF less money.
If they do not buy anything at the stores
they patronize the hotels and restaurants
Somebody therefore is bound to be BEN
Gifted.
Doubtless the railroads think the rates
they offer to excursionists are very low,
but as matter of fact. do not they make
something out of the excursions? 1t is
pretty certain they do. OF course they
could not afford to run their trains all
the time at excursion rates. but when
they can get big crowds by putting down
the fare it pays them to do so.
The excursiopjsts also are benefited in
more ways than one. Besides having a
little recreation they have an opportu-
nifty of getting things they need, ana
which they cannot buy at home.
The excursions are good things and are
appreciated by the people in the country
and by various classes of business people
in the city. The railroads will make no
mistake by continuing them.

The recent interview of Sir Claude Mac
Donald IN New York, respecting the
looting in China, and the report that
Minister Conger is to return to Pekin,
has started afresh the discussion as to
the personality of the individuals who
did the looting complained of by Sir
Claude. According to the Philadelphia
North American. one of the persons
whose names Sir Claude was polite enough
not to menton is the wife of Minister
Conger. The North American says
Against the protests of the foreign off,
Gals and in disregard of the pointed
though silent rebuke administered by
Lady Macdonald, this lady, they say, in
sisted upon breaking into a locked closet
to the palace and a lieutenant of the
American army pried open the door with
bayonet and assisted her." A news
item that is going the rounds of the press
describes the Chinese collie, formerly the
property of the Dowager Empress, now
in Iowa as the property of one of Minis
ter Conger's daughters. 1t seems that
it is incumbent upon Minister Conger TO
meet these stories that are finding their
way into the newspapers. II they ore
true, he can hardly be the proper person
to represent this government at the Chi
nese capital again

from his writings and lectures. Senator
Wright says Mr.. Bryan is having plans
drawn for a rather pretentious mansion

Senator's idea in making the statement
possibly was to disparage his neighbor
But is it not greatly to a mans credit to

AS the gentlemen of the City Council
and the property owners on CASTOR street
have locked horns in the courts-and it
will doubtless be long time before the
horns are legally unlocked, since there
are able counsel on both sides-would it
not be well to use the bricks bought for
CASTOR street to pave Whitaker street
from CASTOR to Park avenue so as to
give a good roadway around the park
and parade ground? OF course the red
bricks from the banks of the Hudson
will not spoil. 1t is one of the virtues
of bricks that they are not perishable.
But there are PAYERS in the city who
would be glad to have a summer Job on
a shady street; and if the bricks were
thus diverted the Street and Lane COM
mitteemen would have something to take
their minds off the injunction suit. When
a party has corporation to back it in
lawsuit the costs do not occasion much
worry; nevertheless a lawsuit is nearly
always unpleasant In this case any I'M
pleasantness would be mitigated by di-
verting the bricks and the official mind
or minds to the paving of Whitaker
street as suggested.

There is young minister of advanced
ideas and considerable promise in Youngs-
town, o. The other day when he ascend
ed his pulpit he noticed that the men in
his congregation were a most uncom-
Portable lot. They were sweltering and
sweating, and no doubt looked forward
with eagerness to the time when
the last amen" should be pro-
nounced. Brethren" said the young
minister. 'it is an exceedingly
warm day. I propose that we make our
selves comfortable while we worship. |
am sure it will be no disrespect to
the house of God or to the ladies of the
congregation If we remove our coats.
shall lead the way" Whereupon he re-
moved his coat and laid it upon a chair.
The men in the church heaved deep
sigh of relief, shucked their coats and
folded them on the backs of the pews.
And then they leaned back in comfort
and heard the coatless young preacher de-
liver very good sermon.

There can be no question of the neces-
sity for two more paved north and south
streets through the city. Any doubter
can quickly satisfy himself on that point
by driving on Drayton or Jefferson street
during the morning or afternoon rush
hours. Vehicles Of all kinds pour into
those streets not only from the northern
and southern parts of the city hut from
the eastern and western suburbs as well.
To provide the necessary accommodations
for everything on Wheels" East Broad
and West Broad streets should be paved
at once. There is a great deal of haul
ing on those streets now, heavy aud
sandy as they are; ana horse-fiesh is
suffering from it. with the streets paved,
there would be more business. increased
property values and fewer broken-down
horses. West Broad is now paved from
Bay to Stone street. and East Broad TO
Jones street A mile more paving on
either or both would give hardened road
ways well out into the southern section.
The majority of the property owners on
these streets would no doubt be glad to
have them paved since values would at
once be enhanced. There is a general
opinion that this work should be done.
and IL seems that IL is wasting time to
delay It.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York Journal of Commerce
CInd) says: Monday being the first of
July, the price of coal was marked up
another ten cents. This is equivalent 10
something over 100000, and probably
human history affords no instance of five
million dollars being acquired with less
effort and less risk The process can be
repeated. and doubtless will be, until the
consumption of anthracite is checked,
but that will not occur soon, for 1t is al
most impossible to get along without an
thracite for domestic purposes, and in the
interest of the public health as well as OF
municipal beauty this and other cities are
trying to drive manufacturers to the use
of anthracite. There is no competition in
anthracite coal and there is nothing to
check the advance of price at the pleas
ant rate of five million dollars and some
thing over every month except the will
lingness of the public to put up with the
dirt and smoke and odor of soft coal
rather than submit any longer to the ex-
tortion OF monopoly"
The New York Evening Post Qnd)
says: THE mind OF the Hon. Hoke Smith
of Georgia has evidently been affected by
the heat. In speaking to the striking
machinists of the Southern Railway he
bitterly denounced those students OF the
State School OF Technology who had
taken the vacant places, and declared
that no state institution Should tolerate
within its wall as students. supported by
the state such young men. OF course.
Mr. Smith knows that the right to choose
your employers or your employees, as the
case may be, Is one OF the fundamentals.
II the students OF the State school OF
Technology wish TO accept the terms Of
fered by the Southern Railway the mat
ter is their own business, and the man
who intimates that the school should dis
ciphne them for their decision lays him
self open TO the suspicion OF bidding for
the labor vote"
