Called Heat ApOplexy.
What is called 'sunstroke," the eff
feet Of great heat, should be heat
apOpleXy" The misnOmer leads the
multitude to suppose that death from
it Is caused through being struck
down by exposure to a special ma
levolency of the suns rays. This is
not so. for patients are with equal fire.
Quency found in houses and barracks
and tents and at night as we'll as day
and, whether in sun or shade, are gen
orally those whose health is debilitated
by dissipation, disease and overfatigue.
and the evidences from all parts Of
the world show that exposure to in
tense sun rays is less to be feared In
dry countries than in countries where
the temperature is much lower. but
the atmosphere is moist, and perspira-
ton Is consequently retarded.
People suffer more from a tempera-
ture Of 81 degrees F. at Brussels than
at 122 degrees F. at Cairo. owing to
the moist air Of the first and the eX-
IRENE dryness of the air in the latter
city.
The inhabitants of the eastern coasts
Of the United States hear with amaze
ment Of temperatures from 11S to 12S
degrees F. being tolerated in the dry
regions of Arizona and South Colorado
without harm and that the ordinary
avocations Of farm and factory are
pursued without inconvenience. This
Is due to the cooling effect Of rapid
evaporation from the surface Of the

is especially so in the treatment OF
epidemics, particularly typhoid, with
which the army was seriously threat

devices have been adopted, after thor

would be a decided Improvement in the
conditions prevailing at army posts.
The same precautions for the health
of the troops have been taken in the
field. on marches and on army trans

possible to maintain the health of the
army in a way which has not been
equalled since the record breaking

available. will show a remarkable state
of affairs, entirely credtable to the
surgeons who have been working 50

The Marriage Knot.

A good deal is heard Of the marriage

this afternoon in game with Hastings
college, and defeated the visitors by a
score Of Sc to 0. It was also the first
test of the new football rules, and while
they worked trife awkwardly, critics
were ready to pronounce them a sue
cess, in some particulars. Hastings
was so thoroly outclassed as to make
the game not more than practice for
the varsity team. .. @.'. .'''
In the first half Nebraska took the
offensive, and, seemed proficient in the
new rules. Ten minutes Of play, most
ly on the forward pass, liberal punting
and few rushes, gave Nebraska her
first touchdown, Little carrying the
ball. Cook kicked the goal. Benedict
made IAN end run for sixty-6ve yards
for the second touchdown. Cooke
made the third. Cooke kicked goal
both times. Score, first half: Nebras-

first touchdown. Then Mason twice
carried the ball over, and Drain, who

six goals were kicked. Schmidt scored
