HOT WAVES BACK BROKEN.

Cooler Weather I'm Spots, But No As

Washington. July 6.-The backbone Of
the hot wave has been broken, at least,
temporarily, by showers and thunder
storms that swept over the Atlantic states
and the Upper Lake Regain this after
noon, but the Weather Bureau holds out
no assurances as to the permanency of
the break. Up in Nova Scotia the ba-
rometrfc high pressure area is banked
up tonight. giving promise of winds from
the eastward, with cooler weather in its
train. 1t is very much cooler tonight
through New England and the storms this
AFTERNOON and evening, according to Fore
cast Official Frankenfield, give promise
that the next day or two at least, will
not be so abnormally hot as the record
breaking days of the past week. The
mercury has fallen in greater or less de-
gree everywhere to the east of the Mis-
sissippi, while west of the Mississippi,
except in the extreme southwest, the
temperature is considerably warmer.
The maximum temperature for the day
in Washington was reached at 2:3O o clock
this afternoon when the weather bureau
thermometer recorded 95 which is two de-
grees less than the maximum for the cor
responding day last year. But the storm
that broke a little later caused a drop of

WORMS FOUND IN SNOW.
Interesting Theory Advanced to Ac-
count for Their Presence.

count for Their Presence.
From Meehan's Monthly.
Scientific men seldom attempt to show
the practical value of the work they do
It is often a long time before this i'm
portance is realized-and hence We often
hear the question, does science pay? This
has many times been asked in connection
with Polar expeditions. And though their
value has often been demonstrated, yet
the same question is being put day by
day
How valuable even a new fact of SEEM
inRly trining Importance may be in widen
ing human knowledge is we'll illustrated
by a paper recently published I'm the pro-
ceedings OF the Academy of Natural Sci
ences Of Philadelphia, which simply de-
scribes a species of "a snow-inha biting
Enchytraeld," by J. Percy Moore. 1t sim
ply tells OF the discovery-by Mr.. Henry
O. Bryant, one of the famous explorers
with Peary in Greenland, but on this oc-
casion ascending Mount st. Elias. in
Alaska-of a small worm less than one
inch long when In its mature condition,
that is born, lives and dies In perpetual
snow. This is all, and what of that?
We may leave Mr. Moores paper here
and recall the fact OF the extraordinary
abundance of animal life in these inhos-
pitable lands. Fish and sea birds abound
In such numbers that man and land ami
mails have no difficulty In preserving life
during the long, dreary winters OF those
regions II has been accounted for In
general sort OF way by the broad state
ment that "animalcula come down with
the melting snow TO the creeks and har-
bors. on which small fish feed, and then
the larger on these, and so on, through
the whole course" But the question has
never been answered as II Is In this
paper.
But how do these worms live? for all
animal life must be sustained by vegeta-
ton In the first instance-and II Is here
that the practical man has to put this and
that together. Not only do these minute
creatures live IN snow, but the lower
forms Of microscopic plants do also. One
species, OF blood red color known as
ProtocOccus nivalis. IL produced In such
large numbers that the snow hills often
seem as red as blood. Aside from this II

Northern train at Wagner, Mont, last
Monday, secured $4,000 in incomplete ma

were 800 sheets CT these unsigned notes of
four notes to a sheet, three tens and one
twenty. The bank numbers ran serially
from 1,201 to 1000, both inclusive, and the
treasury were from Yes, $40 to Y935, IA.
The bank numbers were printed in the

BELLARMINO SURRENDERs WITH
ENTIRE FORCE.

Manila, July 6.-The forces of the in
surgent leader Bellamino which have
recently been operating around Donsol,
province of Sorsogon, were driven across
the mountains by the Second Infantry and
finally captured by the Sixth Cavalry.
BellarminO, with one thousand men and
2S4 guns, surrendered to Col. Whit at
Albay, capital of the province of that
name. One hundred more rifles will be
surrendered tomorrow.
Later in the day the official announce
ment of the surrender of Bellarmino was
made. According to this account. Bel
larmino, who has been operating in the
province of Sorsogon, surrendered Thurs
day last, at Legaspi, on ARbay Bay, with
81 officers, 2l5 guns and 5000 rounds of
ammunition. The lnsurgenu presidents IN
that section of the country and many Fill
ipinos accompanied Bellarmino, who gave
himself up to Col. Whit of the Sixth Cav
airy. In all, since June L0a insurgents
have surrendered in that district. Col.
Wint's regiment came from China with
Gen. Chaffee. Before disembsrking at
Legaspi, Col. Whit went to Gen. Chaffee
and asked the latter If he wished him to
clean up that part Of the country. Gen.
Chaffee replied:
Yes; but I do not command until
July A."
In three weeks Bellarmino was corner
ed. in spite of theories of any officers that
cavalry could not be used in effective OPP
eratons in such a country.
Former Filipino officers who belonged
to Malvar's command report that fifty
insurgents were killed and that many

This is the story told by John Binder
