Hottest Day IN the Hottest
Place.

Washington Special.
The records of the weather bureau
show that the maximum of heat re-
corded in the United States was in
Colorado, at Mammoth Tank, a sta
tion IN the desert where, in 1887, the
thermometer recorded, in the shade,
12S degrees Fahrenheit. Again, il
1884, 124 degrees was reached in the
same place. Taking it all together,
the hottest place in the United
States is CALIFORNIA; "Death Valley"
The name is supposed TO come
from tragedy which occurred there
in the ffties, when a party of immi-
grants entered the valley and every
one died of thirst. The valley is the
bed of former salt lake and it is
below the level of the sea. Streams
flow into it, but the burning saDds
and alkali lick them up. Lsrge
borax deposits are found there. The
valley is IS miles long and in places
only six miles wide at the bottom.
In 1891 the weather bureau sent an
observer to remain there and take
observations all summer. When he
returned he said he would take ''per-
dition straight" next time. He was
there 153 days. On the hottest days
the maximum was 120 and the mini.
mum 79, making an average for the
day of 1885 degrees, which is rather
trying weather.

The Veterans Romance,

The veteran with the war-worn
look, the old slouch hat and the mil
tary goatee, yellowed by the use of
tobacco, was telling the story. He
had "shouldered his crutch and
showed how fields had been won,"
and now he was telling how some
thing else was won.
The old farm house on the right
appealed to me too strongly to go
ahead" said he. 'Besides, I had
got glimpse of cool, shelted
spring house, where, perhaps, my
imagination told me I might get
cold drink of cream. I do not say
that the rustic of white skirts on the
green shrubbery around the spring
house did not attract me. Be that
as it may, I went and never regret
ted it.
II met her there, she stood framed
in the doorway of the rustic spring
house, the last rays of the sun giving
a golden glory to her wealth of hair.
Her head was thrown back and her
graceful neck lost itself in maze of ruf
hes. There was tender smile on her
ripe mouth a tender look in her eyes.
Whether she pittied me or my gray
uniform never knew. I dragged
myself up the hill, in spite Of my
wounded foot, and made my request.

she said. Anything We have is

Il drank the cream from her hand
with eyes intent upon hers. After
that she insisted, and with many a
groan I was installed in a gorgeous
white bed in clean, neat room, and
there my wound was dressed.

Two Judges for One Seat.
Contested Election Results in a Clash
Among Tennessee Officers.

Among Tennessee Officers.
Knoxville, Tenn, Sept. 3.-The
unusual spectacle of two rival judges
holding the same court at the same
time was witnessed in this county.
County Judge G. L. Maloney, who
is contesting the election of A. D.
Collier, Democrat, refused to give
up his Office, and Collier sought to
compel him by calling the sheriff to
his aid. Judge Maloney slammed
his safe door too and then retired on
account of Labor Day, leaving COL
lier in possession of the Office with
out access to the records. Ia the
Offices of county clerk and register
similar proceedings occurred, the
Democratic contestees unlocking
the doors and entering after the old
officials had retired for Labor Day.
The Democrats have actual posses
sion of the Offices, but the retiring
candidates have the combinations of
the vaults and refuse to make the
same known.

States Finances.
Serious Problem Confronting the Next
Legislature.

Legislature.
The biggest proposition that the
legislature will run up against next
winter will be that of taxation and
appropriations. Those who are fami-
liar with the financial condition OF
she State are already studying the
matter, and they see breakers ahead
The state has to borrow about
100000 this year. Other treasurers
have had to supply deficits in the
receipts so as to tide the State over
until taxes came in, but this time it
appears that even when taxes come
in the deficit cannot be wiped out.
This is serious condition of affairs
and the prospect is that the next
legislature will have to practice the
ssrictest economy. Appropriations
during the past year or two have
been of an extraordinary character.
For instance there was 81 sppropria-
tion of $4,000 to the Charleston ex-
position. Then 100000 was added
to the pensions, and as usual Win,
throp came in for its annual demand
far more above its ordinary appro-
priation.
These are but few of the largest
appropriations, and in them may be
included final payment on the State
house. This and the Charleston ex-
position may be eliminated from con-
sideration in this years estimates,
but still the legislature will find it.
self sshard up" to meet the ordinary
expenditures.
The only way out of the dilemma
is to reduce expenses or increase the
levy. It is feared that when it comes
to q reduction that the State colleges
will suffer because that seems,
strange to say, the place where they
always want to use the pruning
knife. Clemson got an extraordinary
amount of money from the privilege
tax, and another effort will be made
during the next legislature to divert
test sum into the treasury and let
Clemson get appropriations accord
ing to its needs just like other COL
leges do. This would increase the
ordinary revenue of the State con-
siderably, but not enough to make
up the deficit.
The mere suggestion Of raising
the tax levy would raise such a storm
that there is no man in the legisla-
ture who would back up the move.
So that may be dismissed from con-
sideration, and the whole thing re-
wolves itself around to the starting
place and that is that economy will
have to be practiced and expenses
cut down and it is going to take wise
craftsmanship to do it and do injus-
tice to none.
