ONLY TEN HOT DAYS IN YEAR
some Interesting Features of the
weather Conditions at Omaha
During 1902.

Local Forecast Oficial Welsh has Just
completed a summary of the weather Of the
year 1902, which shows a number of inter-
esting facts not before published.
The maximum temperature for the year
was reached on July 16, when the thermom-
eter stood at 96 degrees above. This was
6 degrees cooler than the maximum for
1901. During last year there was only ten
days that the thermometer went above 80
degrees, while the year before that forty
four days went above the ninety mark and
thirteen days were above 100. The record
for the month Of April was broken last year
by a temperature of 80 degrees above, within
4 degrees of the maximum for the entire
year. The wind showed unusual efforts dur
ing 1902, it running 1900 miles greater than
in the year previous.
The last month OF the year broke its rec
ord for precipitation, there being two and
three-quarters inches during the month.
The total rainfall of the year was thirty
inches and twenty-five inches of snow fell.
Although IL was the general opinion that
there was a great excess OF rain last year,
in reality at Omaha there was a deficiency
of over an inch. There were a great many
days of rain, but no very heavy rains. The
record SHOWS; Clear days, 1O7; partly
cloudy, 1873; cloudy. 100; days when meas
urable amount of rain fell. 109.

STRIKERS GET BUSY AGAIN
Several Leaders Take Trips Among

Already signs Of the renewed aggressive

volved we're out on the road again, stirring
up matters and looking after the progress
Of affairs generally. All during the period
Of stagnation marked by the conference
the leaders were assembled in Omaha, wait
Ing for developments. Now they are
actively at work again. Blacksmith
tirely deserted yesterday, as Committeeman
Kline and all his subordinates were out on
the road, scattering to various points.
Saturday afternoon comes the big event,
when the executive committees of the
boiler makers, machinists and blacksmiths
will meet. This session may be productive
Of important results. 1t is thought that
Tom Wilson. fourth vice president Of the
international Association of Machlnists.
will arrive in time to participate, and with
both Wilson and Mcneil on hand, together
with Kline, there will be representation
OF all three branches by the head men.
Further plans than those already outlined
for the emphasizing of the strike will be
discussed and adopted and everything put
In shipshape for a long siege.
Strikers say that a petition for better
food and more Of 1t, signed by hfty-nine
strike breakers at North Platte, has been

railroads would not be entitled TO any re-

titled to receive based on the valuation Of
the state board as returned to the county

Woman Sends Him Several Letters
Every Day Addressed tn
"Dear John"

Sheriff John Power is paying penalty for
being courteous, gentle and engaging with
insane patients. One Of them, evidently a
woman has acquired the embarrassing habit
of writing him two or three letters a day
some days-in each of which she addresses
him as Dear John" which is no proper
saIutation, he feels. in view Of the fact that
he is a married man with a family,
Moreover this correspondent persists in
attempting to recount the cruelty shown her
by a man she fancies she married against
her will, and for whom, apparently, she
had much less liking than she has acquired
for the gallant sheriff since becoming ac-
quainted with him.
Another Of her decisions is that several
people have been buried prematurely under
the walls of the county hospital by persons
who would have made similar disposal of
her had It not been for his timely inter-
v~ention.

OMAHA AS A SHOE MARKET
Boston Trade Paper Ranks This City
as the Eleventh on
the List.

An annual review just issued by a trade
journal Of Boston shows that Omaha is the
eleventh city Of the union in volume Of
shoes handled, being exceeded only by St.
Louis. Baltimore. Chicago, New York, Phil
adelphia, P~ittsburg, New Orleans San Fran
cisco, Lynchburg and Cincinnati. The total
number. OF cases Of goods shipped to Omaha
from Boston during the year was so, 900,
while Al 900 went to Kansas City and $4,000
to Columbus, o., which is looked upon as
one Of the Oldest and best shoe markets in
the country. The total shipments to 81.
Louis. which is acknowledged to be the
largest shoe market in the world, was less
than ten lines as much as that shipped TO
Omaha, while IL was more than eleven
times as much as that shipped TO Kansas

ON REFORM SCHOOL
Superintendent Begh.ol Declares OOnfne-
ment There Injuries No Boy.
REV. A. W. CLARK TAKES ANOTHER VIEW
Consequently the superintendent OF
the Omaha Child Saving Insti-
tute May Bring Legal Action
Against state Institution,

Arthur Adams, a colored boy of tender
years and small pretension, is growing In
Importance as a bone of contention and pos
sibly may figure in a trial OF legal strength
between A. w. Clark, superintendent OF the
Child Saving institute at Eighteenth and
Ohio streets, and Superintendent Beghtol
of the State Industrial school at Kearney.
The contest, If there be one, will be in good
spirit and induced entirely by radically diff
fering views of the two gentlemen as to the
province of the Kearney school.
Arthur and a paler boy robbed a candy
shop and we're caught at 1t. The paler
boys father took him in charge and the
court let him go. Arthur had no father
and was sent to the Industrial school. Su-
perintendent Clark interested himself in
the case and located in Jefferson, Mo-, an
aunt Of the boy, who has money and Is
willing to stand sponsor for him. Judge
Baxter, upon being appealed to, told Mr..
Clark the proper course would be to have
Superintendent Beghtol of the industrial
school release the boy on parole, so that
he can be returned IL he acts improperly.
Superintendent Clark acted on this sugges-
tion, but received from DR.. Beghtol a re-
Spouse which surprises him and which he
considers very ~unwisely grounded.

A Remarkable Record.

1t is an interesting fact that in October
of the year l7S0-iust a year before Corn
wallis surrendered at Yorktown, twenty
seven years before Fulton started his first
steamboat on the Hudson river and fifty
seven years before the electric telegraph
came into seth Baker Cocoa and Choco-
late factory was established in Dorchester
on the site now occupied by one Of the
large mills OF that company.
Over 122 years Of uninterrupted success.
Think of it.! What other manufacturins
concern in this or indeed, in any other
country can show such an extended record
Of business prosperity?
What is the secret of their great success?
1t is a very simple one. They have won
and held the confidence Of the great and
constantly increasing body Of consumers
by always maintaining the highest stand
ard in the quality Of their cocoa and choc-
olate preparations and selling them at the
lowest prices for which unadulterated ar.
ticles Of good quality can be put upon the
market.
They receive numerous letters from
housekeepers who have used their cocoa
and chocolate for many years, stating thai
lately, when ordering the Baker goods
other goods of greatly inferior quality have
been sent to them. They find it neces-
sary. therefore. for the protection Of those
who want their cocoa and chocolate, tC
issue an emphatic warning against these
fraudulent practices and to ask buyers tC
examine every package they receive and
see that it bears the well known trade.
