the situation this morning, as regards
the Republican state convention. Many
delegates came in during the night and
held conferences at the hotels at all
hours, but no one had any announce

result of them.
Congressman G. w. Norris arrived
from his home in McCook at an early

his family and had to climb out of a

fumigation by the health authorities
before he could come at all. He de-
clined to talk politics until he had con-

The talk in the lobbies this morn

of the convention. Anti-county option
leaders declared that in many in
stances the instructions for county op-

They based their hopes of winning the

In assuming the temporary chair

county option plan of regulating the

Mentioning the Democrat state con-

The highest point reached by the

is now dated o'clock yesterday when
it reached 104 degrees, breaking Sat-

last night it was still at "a, another
hourly record.
A slight rain fell at 7:45 this morn
ing and for a few minutes cooled the
atmosphere. The shower lasted but
10 minutes and only .01 inch of water
fell. 1t was one of those while-the-
sun-shines showers. The clouds came
over from the southwest and broke
from that edge of the city while the
sun shone undiSturbed from the
southeast. Then the hot winds began
to spread their misery again and it
was as if the rain had not come. No
trace of it was left in ten minutes and
its cooling effect was gone.
The government thermometer stood
at 104 at 2 o'clock today and unless un-
looked for clouds appears yesterday S
record will be broken. The weather
man predicts 1O6 for the high mark to-
day.
Only once in the history of Topeka
