The month was marked by heavy local rains, an unusual range of temperature, and in the northern part of the district the lowest min imum temperatures of record in August. In Wyoming and parts of northwestern Colorado during the cold wave of the 25th and 26th. hard freezing weather was general. In Utah, where the severity of the cold wave was less marked, the damage was confined principally to vine crops. A light frost was noted at Flagstaff on the 9th. Heavy rains at Baker, Utah, on the nth, I2th and 5Ist caused much damage to roads; at Silver City, N. M., on the 22nd, down. pour, lasting hall an hour, caused considerable damage; on the 3oth, at Fairbanks, Ariz., heavy rains caused the San Pedro river to overflow it's banks, sweeping the valley for 20 miles; railroads were washed out and farms devastated, and at Tombstone three houses were struck by lightning and burned. On the same date, but in the opposite part of the state, railroad tracks were washed out between Seligman and Ash Fork.

The Universal Help

My cows gone dry, my hens won't lay, my horse has got the croup; the hot winds spoiled the budding hay, and l am in the soup. And while my life is sad and sore, and earthly joys are few, I'll write a note to Theodore-he'll tell me what to do. I wasn't home when fortune called, my feet had strayed afar; fear that l am going bald, and have got catarrh. The wolf is bowling at my door, I've naught to smoke or chew: but I shall write to Theodore-he'll tell me what to do. My Sunday suit is old and sere, I'm wearing last years lids; my aunt is coming for a year, to visit with her kids. They will not trust me at the store and am feel ing blue, so shall write to Theo.
 
 dore--he'll tell me what to do. When we are weary and distraught from worldly strife and care, and we're denied the balm we sought, and given black despair, ah, then, my friends, there is one chore de- wolves on me and you; we'll simply write to Theodore--he'll tell us what to do. Walt Mason.
 The good promoter is true to his trust.
 A wise man never bets on sure thing or a woman's age.
 Hope is valuable asset--until you try to raise money on it.
 Instead of telling what you are going to do tell what you did.
 A man fears a woman's tears as much as he fears her tongue.
 The more unselfish you are the more selfish you may make others.
 The man who takes to his heels is a coward, but it is different with a mule.
 An extra easy way to be wrong is to be dead sure you are right.
 Don't be surprised if somebody fools you while you are trying to fool somebody.

Dooley and Hennessy
 at the Bridge Party

y
 they had done their best In little Irish stories full of humor,
 wit and jest.
 Although they long had drifted
 from the land they loved so we'll, Where the shamrock and the this
 tie grows in every glade and dell, They still retained the custom of
 dress and manner queer To us, where fashions change as
 much as seasons in the year. Dooley had on brogans, the best
 he had perchance, Red hair and goat-ish whiskers,
 green frock coat and tight pants. His age was quite uncertain; com
 plexion, somewhat red. You would not call him handsome,
 but Irish?-yes, instead. Hennessy, as fine a lad as e'er
 from the Emerald Isle, Was of different makeup, dim
 pied chin and roguish smile. Dooley was the older, with rough
 and ready wit; Was always eager for a scrap quite handy with the init. They both soon got acquainted
 with the elect of the town, And sometimes were invited, so
 went and sat around; Soon learned the ways and customs
 of our western girls and boys, As they mingled with them freely
 in their sorrows and their joys. The town was isolated from the east and from the west, And to hold their new arrivals,
 were urged to do their best To arrange for some amusement,
 after weary toll was OCT, So that life might be worth living and not become bore. The latest for enjoyment of idle
 time at hand
 Are rounds of "at home" parties; they are quite in demand. At these pleasant doings, after
 games of cards arc played, Some refreshments are in order you need not be afraid They are not served, as Dooley
 thought, with whiskey, gin and
 ale,
 But coffee, fruits, or cake and
 cream, to please they do not
 fail.
 The games of cards now mostly
 played are bridge" and old
 five hundred;"
 A little prize for first one out and
 ''booby" for least numbered. It happened thus that Hennessy
 and Dooley were invited To party for a game of bridge;
 indeed they were delighted. It was the first time they had been
 to any of these games, And felt quite eager to take part
 and glorify their names. The language used, in playing bridge, is ultra and correct: May l to this or that suit play3"
 "Pray do" says right to left. The right to play is evident, anent stereotyped quotations, And that's where Dooley got in bad--he forgot the salutations. Dooley played with Hennessy and
 both seemed we'll at ease. Says Hennessy to Dooley then, May I to heart play, pleasee" Says Dooley then, "Phwat the divil do ye mane? Did yez niver play car-rds befur3 To coon and ashk me phwat cards to play! You'll be me partner no moore!"
 "Go long," says Hennessy; play
 your hand; don't show your ignorance here.
 "I'll not says Dooley; I'll break your head with an empty keg of beer"
