HEAT RECORD BROKEN
Big Thunder Storm Comes to Relief
Of Suffering Humanity This
Afternoon.

From The World of Wednesday.
The heat today in Martinsburg broke
all records this summer and was the
most intense, with few exceptions in
local history. With a maximum temper
ature of SO degrees in the shade the
people simply sweltered and wonder
ed II that promised cool wave was
ever coming. There were no heat pros
trations in this section, however, so
far as learned.
A few readings from the govern
ment thermometer at Mr.. Geo. w. Van
Metres will be Of interest. At 10 a.
M today 1t was 90; at II and one
O'Clock, 81 and at 1880 p. m. the mer-
curry went up to SO, two degrees hot
ter than yesterday. But along Queen
street it was still hotter. In font of
Ed. Shepherds drug store, for exam
pie, it was the even 100 in the shade
at 1870 this afternoon. About 2:30 D.
rS., however, heavy thunder and rain
storm came UP from the west as
very welcome visitor, reducing the
fierce temperature several degrees.
This, in all probability, will be follow
ed tomorrow by considerably cooler
weather, boon to suffering humanity
The storm this afternoon was one
of the severist that has visited this
section this season Peals OF thunder
and vivid lightning accompanied the
heavy downpour of rain which lasted
for about half an hour.
In this connection it may be stated
that the weather man at Washington
was correct in his predictions for the
weather today, as published in this
paper yesterday. The heat wave did
break today over the states of this
section Of country followed by local
rains and thunder storms. That
weather man does often hit it.

EXAMPLES or MEDIEVAL Art.
Fine Stained Glass Windows Recently
Received at New York.

The two German windows OF stained
glass among the recent acquisitions
belong in period to the early sixteenth
century, at the time when medieval
ism passes over into renaissance The
color is lighter and paler than that of
the preceding century and is secondary
In importance to the design. In the
examples at the museum are certain
tints OF yellow that began to be used
in the middle OF the fifteenth century,.
as taste changed in favor Of lighter
rooms. The subjects of the windows
are st. John and St Maximine against
a background Of tapestry and archi-
lecture treated SO as to appear ON
the same plane az the figures. The
author of the note on the windows in
the Museum Bulletin says that the
drawing is undoubtedly the work of q
painter-and very good one-of the
Ober-Rhein school, and that as st.
Maximine was bishop Of Trier, the
supposition that the glass is from
that source is probably correct Very
fine examples of the same period are
those in the nave of Cologne cathe-

The materials elected from volcanoes
are chiefly vapor or water, lava, Gin

gases. There is no true smoke emitted

DESTRUCTIVE RAIN STORM
Barns Blown Down and Others I'm
rooted.
DESTRUCTIVE HAIL STORM
Northeast Section Of County Was the
Storm center--Heavy Rain
in Martinsburg.


in Martinsburg.
| One OF the most destructive rair
and wind storms that has visited
Berkeley county in recent years was
that OF "wednesday afternoon from
two to our O'Clock. Income sections
barns were blown down, buildings un
rooted, trees uprooted, growing crops
laid low, fields washed and telephones
put out Of service, while to add to the
destruction, hail fell In some places
injuring crops in field and garden
Lightning played an important part
though the destruction by this element
was not very great.
The storm center was in the north.
eastern section of the county around
Bedington, Berkeley Station, Falling
Waters, Spring Mills, Swan Pond
Greensburg, Marlowe, etc. The rain
came down in torrents and the wind
blew a gale, followed by hail, covering
considerable area. While the storm
extended pretty generally over the
county the section indicated was the
heaviest sufferer.
In Martinsburg, though there was a
very heavy rain fall, there was but
little or no damage done. The same
may be said of the Gerardstown dis.
trict on the southwest, while across
the mountain OF the west there was
little or no rain. "a
Buildings Blown Down.
The large barn on Walter Riners
farm. near Berkeley Station was
blown down Ly the high wind, reduc-
ing it to wreck A calf In the barn
was killed.
The barn Oh the old Hamilton Light
farm, near Bedington, and tenanted by
Mr.. Jacobs, was also blown down, KILL
ing one horse and injuring two others
Mr.. Jacobs and his son were in the
barn when the cyclone hit it but es-
capped injury.
A small barn on the G. Fl. Small
farm in the same neighborhood, was
unroofed
farm. near Spring Mills, was also de-
stroyed by the tremendous force of
the wind.
At Bedington the gable end of the
new Methodist church now in course
of erection was blown in and horse
and buggy nearby were lifted bodily
and hurled 25 or more feet.
Part of the roof of the old Kennedy
mill in the same locality was sent
heller skelter.
At Failing Waters the wind storm
was quite as great. One side of the
roof of John Sperow's barn shared
the same fate as the others mentioned,
together with hay shed in a field on
the G. w. Kujpe farm.
The Hail Storm.
Fortunately the hail storm did not
cover very large area but was very
destructive to corn, wheat, timothy
and garden truck The hail stones
We're about the size of marbles or
hickory nuts and the heaviest fall was
