Spectators in a local drug store
yesterday received a temporary shock
when r. f. Kyle. the Wells Fargo
agent stepped up to a stranger and
said Excuse me, but isn't your name
Baker?' The one accosted replied
in the affirmative but declared that
KYLE had the best of him as he could
MT place him. Kyle replied with the
startling rejoinder. why. we used to
know each other in the insane asylum
at Ossowatomie. Kansas"
Then Mr.. Baker remembered. 1t
transpired that Mr. Baker was con
nected with the laboratory depart
ment of the asylum at the same time
that Mr.. Kyle was one of the husky
guards Of the institution. They had
not seen each other for many years
and the reunion was most pleasant

WIND VELOCITY
AND FLAT WHEEL

1T doesn't take much to fool a
fellow on wind velocity" said OBJ
server Hardinge today. Apparently
foreign elements enter into the cal
culations at times For instance
there's a loose board on a fence in
the alley near the weather bureau
and we can frequently judge the
strength and velocity of the wind by
the vigOr with which the board is
banged against its supports
This morning l thought there
must be a gale blowing for what
sounded to me like the severe bang
ing of the board smote my ears as
soon as the office was opened up.
And | was puzzled when the record
did not show more than five miles an
hour
"A little later. however. the thing
was made clear to me. The constant
banging | heard was the humping of
that flat wheel on street car No. l,
thought the company was going to
take IL off last night but there was
the confounded thing doing business
just the same again today"
Whereupon he proceeded to hand
out the following report and forecast:
Aug. =. Temperature, IS;
relative humidity, 10; direction of
wind. NE; velocity, 6 miles an hour;
precipitation. 0; weather, partly
cloudy.
Aug. 3. am Temperature, Go: /:
relative humidity. 46; direction of
wind. Sc: velocity. miles an hour;
precipitation. 0; weather, clear.
Yesterday the maximum tempera-
ture was 93; minimum, 81; mean,
so, or I degree warmer than normal.
Forecast for Grand Junction and
vicinity: Fair tonight and Thursday.

KNIGHTS TEMP[AR
GIVEN INSTRUCTIONS
ON SUMMER DRINKS

Chicago. Aug. 3.-Chicago is being
taken possession of by the Knights
Templars of the country this week
and the city is laying itself out to
entertain them.
1t is expected that several hundred
thousand visitors will have to be
made happy Among other of the
thoughtful things the city is doing is
to look after the health of the strang-
ers.
Chicago's health department is de-
termined that the knights Templars
shall return to their respective homes
in as good health as when they reach
ed the city by the lake. With that
end in view it has issued a circular
full of advice to the invading hosts,
which if followed, the health depart
ment feels will carry the conclave
through without creating an army of
widows that will trave their bereave-
ment to an insalubrious city.
II this advice be needed knights
Templars will either come here whis-
kerless or there will be a tremendous
boom in the straw market.
Drink, drink, drink everything
but alcoholic beverages the bulletin
says, but don't drink through your
whiskers-shave or use a straw"
The health department next gives
reCire for new drink-it calls it
the 'Templar Triple" 1t is an in
vention of the department, and will
doubtless prove acceptable as a hot
weather drink to other cities and for
other Templars as to Chicago and its
visitors. This is the recipe as given
in the bulletin:
gar, one heaping teaspoonful; butter
milk, four ounces; cracked ice, lit
tie. Put in a tall glass, mix well,
then fill the glass with charged water.
Other contents of the bulletin are
as follows
IF you are not thirsty don't drink
anything.
IF you are from Kentucky, wait
till you get home.
Nearly every case of sunstroke or
heat prostration is due to the mistake
of taking beer and other 'stimulants.
\ sunstroke is often a beerstroke.
Most sir knights need no instruc-
tion or caution about what they shall
eat or drink in hot weather. but a
few do, and these we are after
Dodge the ice cream cone.
If You would be comfortable fol-
low these rules:
4. In hot weather do not talk
about the weather, or read about it or
think about it. If you should walk
along the street and spy a shaded
thermometer showing 50 degrees F..
don't call the thermometer a liar
just cool down.
-. Don't be fussy and don't wor-
ry about anything no man endowed
with equanimity suffers from heat.
20. Dress coolly-wear a shirt
waist or go in your shirt sleeves when
you can
- Don't drink alcoholic bever-
ages in hot weather-includin dis
tiliel and undistilled
., Eat lightly avoid hanguets
and heavy meals. If YOU must 60
take the soun. the salad and the fruit
and just nibble ar the rest. The main
thins is 20 put the soft pedal on the
quantity"

WORKING ON Ne COURTHOUSE

The work of clearing the ground
Tor the new prison site at the
Schulz ranch, South of Carson is
progressing in very satisfactory
manner. At the beginning of the
work Governor Dickerson, who is a
member of the board, asked that a
number of TRUSTEE cons at the peni-
tertiary be allowed to work on the
ground. After looking the condi-
lions over and talking it over with
Warden Maxwell, seven mer from
the pen were sent to the site. They
have been there now over a month.
The men are not hampered with
prison stripes, there is not one gun
on the place and the one guard,
Fred Fellows, is making good head
way with his men.
The men are running a bachelors
quarters at the ranch house. That
they appreciate the treatment is
needless to state, and a stranger
going to the grounds would not
know but that the men were regu-
larly employed. Aside from the
clearing of The brush some two
hundred tons of hay have been cut
and stacked.-Virginia Enterprise.
