SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. 2s.-The
Gate City Is sweltering under the hot
test spell of weather thus far this sum-
mer and the people are wondering how
much longer 1t is to continue. The
heated spell may be said to have conn
menced last Friday. The following day
the mercury registered 104, while on
Sunday 1t went to LOG. Today it is stllI
hotter and 1t Will go close to the 11O
mark. The hottest previous tempera-
ture thus far this summer has been los,
which was in the fore part of July.
The hot weather is having its effect
on business, people not stirring about
any more than necessary. All who can
get away have gone either to the noun
tains or the beaches. the exodus being
general. The heat at this time is much
more oppressive than usual because Of
the sultry condition of the atmosphere
which has prevailed for more than a
week past,

The city council tonight fixed the tax
rate for the coming year $1.7s, which
is the lowest point the city rate has
touched here for a number of years,
being 10 cents under that of last year.

mission meeting a portion of the value

cluded in the levy are $4,000 for new
city Jail and improvements in the fire
department. The grammar schools of
the city are also given so per cent more
money than last year.
There have been severe thunder
storms in the mountain districts in the
past thirty-six hours, but so far as
known no serious damage has resulted.
The hardest rain occurred in the Yu-
caipe valley, southeast of here, the
sound of the thunder being plainly
heard in this city.

1t is probable that the team will be
made up for tOmorroW's game accord
ing To this new arrangement. The prin-
cipal change is the bringing of Abbott
in from the field to catch and the plac-

De Ell believed to be tn weakest place

Clarke will play DIT his old position AT
