HOT WEATHER ADVICE,

How to Avoid the Danger or Summer
Collapse.
From the Baltimore American.
1t looks very much as If last summers
experiences were to be duplicated. At that
time it was some consolation to believe that
the excessive heat was exceptional-at least
as to its duration-but here, right at the
beginning Of summer, the city Is in the
midst of a torrid spell fully equal to any of
the weather's performances in 1900. SO far
the heat has not proved as disastrous in
Baltimore as in other cities, but 1t is too
early for congratulations. In the long run
like causes produce like effects, and it will
be well for the people to be prudent and
observe the usual precautions. When the
thern ometer rises up into the nineties the
force of the sun, where it is unrestricted,
Is terrific. In very hot countries people do
not work in the middle of the day. and
they never walk on the sunny side of the
street If they can avoid 1t.
A dangerous fallacy is that which sup
poses that cold drinks are either a relief
from or protection against the effects Of
heat. If one Is downright thirsty a single
glass of anything free from alcohol will re-
lieve thirst and give a momentary sensa-
ton of enjoyment, but the less one drinks
In hot weather the more comfortable will
he be and the better will be his health.

powdered Jamaica ginger mixed with ice
water and something to sweeten it. There
is no worse drink than the essence of gin
ger. But in excessively hot weather the
less water that is drunk in any form and
Ine less food that is consumed the more

The object should be to keep the blood as
cool as possible. and the less that goes into
the stomach the cooler will be the blood.
humanity can learn a lesson in this re-
spect from animals. They eat and drink
as little as possible in hot weather
Those who drink alcoholic liquors either
continuously or periodically are more liable
to prostration from heat than others. In
all of the lists of casualties from sunstroke
they figure largely. The best plan for
such Is to stop right off and content them
selves with powdered ginger until the
weather turns cool. They can pound I'D
enough ginger to make a tub full, and.

Terrible Results of Indian Famine.

A blue book on India, just issued at
London, shows that f1S,39oOOO was ex-
pended for the relief of famine sufferers
during the year 1S99-19O0.
The mortality from the plague for the
five years ending March, 1901, was nearly
100000.
The census completed In March, 1901,
shows that the increase in population dur
ing the past ten years was only Ave to six
millions. instead of the normal nineteen
millions. The loss represents deaths from
famine and the decrease in births in con-
sequence of the famine.

Ore Zones in Fremont County.

OTc LOucS uf IICuiouh Souhty'
Among the developments Of the
year Just being issued in will come
one of unusual significance which
will be nothing less than the ex-
tension of the gold belt south from
Battle Mountain to the Fremont
county line. In anticipation of
this, it is learned that several
wealthy mining operators have
been quietly acquiring land south
of the southern limit of the camp
w. S. Stratton, Robert Swarz and
others have large holdings already
on Straub mountain, while the
country intervening between
Brind, Straub and Pisgah Peak is
being sought after for new loca-
tions.
There is every reason to believe
that the great assures found in
Battle Mountain and Beacon hill
extend southwark and will be
opened on these other hills.
Persistent investigation has es-
tablished the fact that big
fssured zone representing many
| thousands of feet of assures ex-
tends from the top of Battle
Mountain to the Fremont county
line, and that along this assured
zone occur the veins upon which
are situated several of Colorado's
greatest producers.
The fssures of this zone, as
showing on the surface, are very
cleancut and regular, passing from
formation to formation on their
strike, varying but slightly from a
straight course, and not in the
least deviating in their transition
from one formation to the other,
consequently to all appearances
the veins are the same throughout
the entire zone. On Battle Noun
tain, of course, the development
work performed has proven that
mountain to be n veritable mass of
gold, but to the south not enough
development has yet been done.
Extensive development is being
done now and much more is con-
templated by various people who
are more than convinced from in
dications and the present showing,
to go ahead with work, and believe
that there will yet be opened big
mine in that section of the district
