BREEZE SPRING UP;
OTTUMWANS PLEASED.

All of Ottumwa is voicing its ap-
prevail of the sudden change in the
weather. Yesterday was the hottest
day Of the present summer, and one
that will be remembered for some time.
The temperature recorded as high as
106 at the government station and a
number Of people claim that it was
hotter than that on the streets.
The change in temperature started
about midnight, when breeze sprang
from the north. This continued
through the night allowing many to
get their first night Of rest out Of the
last Ave.
The temperature at p. m. was SO,
and remained as such until late In the
night, when it began to descend until
70 was reached at a. m. At two
O'Clock this afternoon. 1t was 80, and
the forecast for the day was that "a
would be the highest registration.
Ottumwa has been fortunate in that
no deaths or serious illness has been
reported as being due to the extreme
heat.
