INDIAN SUMMER DAYS NEAR.
Balmy Breezes Accompanied by
Low Temperature Promised.

Doctor Hyatt, local weather forecaster
and temperature constructor, intends to
favor St. Louis with two months of ideal
Indian summer weather. Unless his calcu-
lations go awry September will be as pleas
ant a month as August, probably with
fewer storms.
There is nothing in the outlook that would
indicate that it will turn warm, and the
weather official anticipates that St. Louis
will maintain its reputation as a summer
resort At a. m. yesterday the thermome-
ter stood at 60 degrees, and at p. m. it
reached 81, the lowest and highest figures
of the day.
To-day the thermometer may creep up
few notches as the sun is expected to stay
out all day. The weather map does not
show a cloud in the sky.

STATE PRISON ADVICE.

The Monthly Record, published by the prisoners at the state prison, has this editorial on the Yale Criminal cub:
 As a member of the post graduate chapter of the "Crimina club" the ed itor cannot forbear a few words.
 We note that the members of the Yale chapter have chiefly qualified by riding without lamps" It is very clear that every member of the club "has wheels" for no man in his righ mind would glory in any connection with crime, however slight. That they need light is also obvious. Our club house here is full of members who started in their course with the drunk and disorderly" degree. One crime leads to another and it Is an easy mat ter to go on after you once make a start. Harmless hilarity is all right, but to parade even counterfeit dis grace is 9hject folly Again it seems to us a crime for q few insane indi- viduals to smirch the good name of one of the greatest and grandest edu- cational institutions of our country Boys if you ever join the post gradu- ate chapter which God forbid. you will see that it isn't such a wonderfully good joke after all.

COMING EVENTS
At the New Haven Coliseum.

At the New Haven Coliseum.
 As soon as the dates for the grand circuit meets at New Haven are an- nounced Manager Noigt will arrange for the appearance of a number of the big middle distance paced stars at the New Haven Coliseum.
 These races will likely be conducted behind motor singles, experience prov ing that the single motor machine Is safer and quite as fast as the tandem affairs.
 Wathour, Elks, Champion, McFar- land and Stinson are likely to be matched in turn and if the paced stars can furnish one-half the excitement and interest to the audience near as we'll as ahve the pro" sprinters then the pub moneys worth
 Arrangements are being made now for the appearance of Tommy Hall, the little Brittsher, against diminutive Joe Nelson in a five mile motor paced race, best two in three heats, at the local track on the night of July 4th. On Tuesday night fine professional sprint programme will eb decided, the feature event being ten mile race, in which prizes will be awarded the winner of every mile in the race. Of course there will be other events but interest will lie in the decision of the big event. To- cally, George Collett on the form he showed in the twenty-five mile race against Champion Kramer is expected to win.

ESCAPED DESTRUCTION.
Fire, Caused by Lightning, in Senator Clarks House Discovered in the Nick

Fire, Caused by Lightning, in Senator
 Clark's House Discovered in the Nick
 of Time
 The Stony Creek mansion of ex-Sena- tor w. ]. Clark escaped destruction during the recent thunder storm through a peculiar circumstance. The electricity had its effect in the air in the vicinity of Senator Clark's house and during the storm noises like pistol shots, caused by the electricity, were heard very distinctly by the members of the household. The house was all shut up when the family retired for the night, and it was a good thing that such a precaution was taken for if there had been a draft through the house the chances are it would have been destroyed by fire. About the mid de of the night Senator Clark's s grand daughter, who lives across the street, saw a light in the front parlor and has, tened to wake her mother who rushed over to the house of Senator Clark and told him of the fire. sWhen the family reached the parlor the lace curtains had been destroyed the wood work around the window charred, the frescoed cel- ing defaced and the carpet was afire. The fire was started no doubt by the magnetic fluid.
 It was extinguished quickly after do- ing damage to the amount of about s20C, which is fully insured.
