CHICAGO rs SWELTERING
Deaths and Heat Prostrations Mark
Record Days in Windy City.

Chicago, July 18.-Today brought
no relief from the blistering heat. The
only hope held out was a prediction
Of possible thunderstorms tonight or
tomorrow. Indications were that be-
fore shutdown the high record Of yes
terday, "a degrees, might be exceeded.
The first victim was dock worker,
who became crazed by the heat and
suddenly plunged headlong into the
river at Clark street bridge. He died
soon after being rescued from the
water.
The heat Of yesterday scored three
deaths and twenty prostrations.

Berlin, July 18.-The German gov
eminent has taken a stand in regard
to Russia's seizuer of the mails of the
North German Lloyd steamer Prinz
Heinrich, which arrived at Alden, July
16, from Hamburg and Southampton
for Yokohama, and has entered a pro-
test against the carrying off Of the
mails and asked for disavowal Of the
Smolensk's action and the return OF
the captured mail sacks.
The German government, the for
eign office says, recognizes the right
to search mails when on board the
vessel itself, but claims the Smolensk
had no right to take off mails in bulk
from the vessel.
The further argument is advanced
that the right Of search can only be
exercised by a warship, whereas the
Smolensk traYersed the Dardanelles
only recently flying the Russian COM
mercial flag, not assuming the char
acter of q Warship.
The German government has not
taken a positive stand on this last
point, but leaves the question for fu-
ture discussion and settlement. No
answer has yet been received from

will speedily disavow the seizure,

raise the question Of the status of the

in-law, Herbert l.. SatteTlee, and others
for the $195,OOO the bonds cost her She
says she bought the bonds because of
direct personal advice to do so given to
her sister, Mary e. MayEeld, by Mr..
Satterlee, in the Office of the Trust COM
pany of the Republic OF which he was
then a director
She had received a copy OF the now
notorious fraudulent advertisement of

NAcHuR MAN,s RETURN.

Darling, known as the Mature Mau,'
was passenger from Honolulu on tue
steamer Sierra, arriving today. He was
convicted in the island city of being n
vagrant, but sentence was suspended in
order to permit him to depart from the
shores of the Hawaiian Islands. Oar
ling went about the streets of Honolulu
clad only in an undershirt and a pair Of
short trousers.
When Darling first arrived at Homo,
lulu it was thought he would not eNpe-
rience much difficulty in securing con-
verts and he is said in fact to have
come with the idea Of getting the ma
tiyes to form colonies away from the
cities and live unadorned in natures
garb. But the Hawaiian did not take
kindly to this doctrine and refused to
follow the teachings of the Nature Man,
preferring to clothe himself whenever
near civilization. The trip of the Ma
ture Man and his attempt to establish
Nature colonies was a failure.

KONN'S
PRIZE
ALL OTHERS IN INTERNA-
TIONAL COMPETITION AT SAN
FRANCISCO.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 2S.-The In
ternational Association of history
Prevaricators held a meeting last night
at 1857 Powell street, and awarded the
annual prize to the ranchers at Kona,
Hawaiian Islands.
This was the story which gained
honor for the islands, and it was re-
ceived only a short time before the
meetings-being the very last one en-
tered in the competition:
Through all the months of May ami
June, up to a week ago, the ranchers in
the Kona region have been finding their
COWS running drv, strangely out of sea-
son and without apparent cause. Fears
of some new disease were entertained
and so experts were engaged to study
the supposed malady. The health Of
the animal seemed to be exceedingly
good. Upon observing that only the
cows that grazed along the seashore
were affected in the startling unac-
countable manner, the investigators
concluded that a gang of shore pirates
were stealing the milk Accordingly,
armed Watchmen were secreted in the
grazing district to discover and capture
the thieves.
The thieves at last were found, but
they proved to be flying-fish. The fish
came ashore at night, flying in schools
so large that entire herds We're robbed
of the milk in a very short space of
time The story is supported by the
old natives of the island, who say that
such depredations by the fiying-fish
were heard of as far back as the days
of Captain Kidd.
But they didn't keep cows as long
ago as that" argued one man who
heard an oldest inhabitant tell of the
previous instance.
"Of course not" colncided the aged
islander. The flying fish got so bad
there wasn't any money in keeping
them"

PARKER CASE

The Parker ranch case again engaged
the attention of Judge Gear at this
mornings session of his court. There
was the usual array of legal talent
present and the arguments were of the
usual abstruse nature which is so much
Greek to the average layman. The
phase of the case reached was argu-
ment on the demurrers to the petition
of j. S. Low as next friend of the minor,
Annie Thelma K. Parker, for authority
to sell real estate, the property of the
said minor.
Those who demurred to the petition
were Mrs. Elizabeth A. Knight, mother
of the minor, who is represented by j.
j. Dunno and A. w. Carter, represented
by A. A. Wilder, who is at present the
guardian of Annie T. K. Parker. J. A.
Magoon appears for Low.
The matter was taken under advise
ment.

between Chicago and Princeton univer-

so spirited that the largest srowd that

repaid for Drawing the hot sun. Chi
