UTILIZING THE SUMS RAYS.
Cheap Fuel Used by Residents Of
Southern California.

Cheap Fuel Used by Residents OF
Southern California.
The residents of Southern Califor-
MIA have gone into partnership with
the sun. There the sun is more plen-
tiful than COAL and so they put the
former to work, utilizing the heat
rays for many purposes, one of which
is known as the "solar water heater"
By the plan they have adopted they
make the sun heat the water in the
kitchens and bathrooms in the houses
and for other domestic purposes. In.
California and other states where the
sun may be depended on the item OF
fuel is entirely eliminated, and how
ever cheap fuel may be, no fuel is
cheaper than the sun.
The domestic arrangement for keep
ing water hot at all hours of the day
or night is effected by inserting in the
roof solar heater, consisting of a
number of mirrors refecting the suns
rays, so that the heat is concentrated
upon the water in metallic troughs,
which absorb the heat rays and soon
bring the water to nearly boiling
temperature.

REPORT IS WITHHELD
The Full Account Of the Japanese
Victory Not Given Out
PUBLIC in IGNORANCE
Official Explanation is That Unnec-
essary Alarm on the Enemy's Au
thority is to be Avoided.

st. Petersburg, Dy Cable.-,Up to
Sunday night, the Japanese report OF
the loss of three Russian ships at Port
Arthur has not been published here,
though the authorities have allowed
to be printed statement that the
squadron had made sortie, and also
the news of the loss of Japanese tor
pedo boat destroyers. Some Of the
papers have even commented with
satisfaction on the prospect of a
fight in the open sea, where the mer-
it's Of the two fleets would be fairly
tested.
An official explanation of the sup
preston of the Japanese report is that
the admiralty is unwilling to unnec-
sarily alarm the public by the publi-
cation of such statements entirely on
the authority Of the enemy and in
the absence of definite advices from
the commander at Port Arthur.
The officials do not attempt to dis
guise the seriousness of and the far
reaching consequences which might
result from, the loss of three of the
Port Arthur warships,; but they pro-
fess to be more inclined to believe that
The vessels were lost in open fight,
rather than tho result Of a torpedo
attack. Should this be the case, they
say, the Japanese could not have es-
capped without material loss and the
gripping OF one or two Of their bat
sleships-enough to assure the COM
uand of the sea to the Baltic squad
ron.
There is much speculation as to
whether the Vladivostocll squadron
might have gone out and whether it
is on the eve of joining the Port Ar
thur fleet.
It is reported that serious land
fight has taken place near Ta-Tche-
Kiao. in which the Russians were de-
reated, but no confirmation Of this re-
port is obtainable.

An Anti.sea.sick Vessel.

Lieut.. Turc, of the French navy, has
after much study devised plan for
ship the passengers on which will,
as he imagines, be proof against sea-
sicl1nesses. He has caught the idea
from the motion of a swing. AS a
general rule, vessels are only set roll.
ing from ten to fifteen seconds at a
time, and as his would have regular
swing of twenty-five seconds, he cal.
culates that the effect of the waves
would thus be ccunteracted. NJ. Turc's
model ship would be of about 5000
tons burden, and would sail at a
speed of nineteen knots. All the
cabins would be we'll out Of the water,
as they would be constructed on a
deck more than thirty feet above the
sea level.

Good Rains and Warmer Weather Pre-

The week ending s a. NJ, June 20,
had mean temperature Of "a degrees
which is nearly five below normal,
due to very low temperatures during
the first four days and rising temper
.ature to nearly normal warmth during
the last three. The extremes were
minimum at Florence, Greenville
ind Spartanburg on the 14th and 18th,
and maximum of 95 at 8lackville on
ahe 18th. The relative humidity was
.bnormally low until the 18th, and
he winds were fresh to brisk easterly
.ntil the last two days when they
hifted to southerly. The sunshine
exceeded the normal, but with general
y cloudy weather on the 18th and
18th.
The week was without rain, or with
,nly very light. scattered showers,
5mtil the 18th, when showers set in
yer the extreme west, and contin.
led during the 18th, but confined to
ne western and. southwestern coun.
les, with maximum fall Of 2.44 incl.-

we're also favorable for finishing

and dry weather checked the growth
Of all crops, particularly cotton, pas.
tures and gardens.
The condition of corn continues
promising, but it needs rain in most
sections, as early corn is in the tas
selling stage. Much Of it has been
laid by. Worms in the tops are dam
aging the crop in one county. Roast
ing ears are available in the southern
most portions.
Cool nights materially checked the
growth of cotton early in the week
but higher temperatures at its close
were more favorable. Lice infest
fields over practically Ghe entire
State. AS a rule the plants are small
but thrifty, and fields are clean and
well cultivated. Cotton is fruiting
well on sandy lands, and occasional
blooms are reported from the south
ern@ counties. Sea Island cotton is do

Tobacco continues promising but
needs rain. Rice planting is finished;
