some SCORCHING
WEATHER DEALT
AMER!CUS AGAIN
heat TUBE AT The 9S notch
First Really Hot Season in
Several Days

Americus folks awoke yesterday
with beaded brows from we'll nigh
sleepless beds and faced about the
hottest proposition upon the July cal
endar. Not a cooling breeze tempered
the fierce heat, which at 10 o'clock
showed a registration of SO degrees.
This was well nigh the maximum, as
the mercury, even at 2 O'Clock, when
the heat seemed fiercest, did not quite
touch the hundred notch. 1t was a
still and breezeless day, the warmest
that. has followed the short period of
pleasant weather earlier in the month.
There was no promise of rain reelei
off by the weather doctor, and
scorchful Sunday is probably in store
for the several thousand "can't-get
aways" here at home.

USUAL FALSE FIRE ALARM
CAVE MEN NEEDLESS RUN

Another needless alarm of fire, like
so many that are sent in here, called
the department to negro house
near the Central depot at 1880
o'clock yesterday. There was, in
reality, no fire, and absolutely no
need for calling the department, which
was forced to make wild run through
streets crowded with people and We
hicles. to the imminent danger of
both. In no city, perhaps, is as little
discretion shown, sometimes, in send
ing in alarms of fire as here-an evil
and danger which should be corrected.

CAILLAUX TRIAL
COLLAPSES into
VAUDEVILLE ROW
JUDGES TO Fight A DUEL
Opera BOufe In Gay ParGe
Is Entertaining

Paris, July 25.-The chief judge
challenging one of his colleagues to A
duel, the reading of the Mysterious
letters which were supposed to affect
the case so profoundly and the physi-
cal collapse in court of Nine. Caillaux
were three incidents which today stir
red the emotions in connection with
the trial of Nine. Caillaux for the
murder of CASTOR Calmette.
A peculiarly French atmosphere
was lent to the affair by the quarrel
of the judges. This was adjusted by
the piquant contents of former prem
ier's love letters, and whose recital
caused the prisoner to fall uncons-
cious and remain for a long time in
4 swoon.
Beyond reading of the letters, lit
tie progress was made, and it was gen.
orally expected the trial would extend
far into next week.
A challenge to duel was sent to-
lday by Judge Louis Albanel, presii-
ing judge of the court trying Nine
Henriette Caillaux for the wilf'l
murder of CASTOR Calmette, to Judge
Louis Dagoury, one of the three
other judges sitting on the bench
with him.
The quarrel arose out of an Incl
dent which occurred at the palace O
justice late last night but the nature
of which could not be ascertained
The seconds appointed by Judge AL
banel are General Jules Dalstein
former military governor of Paris
and Emile Bruneau de Laborie.
Nine Caillaux, soon after she wa:
brought into court today, totally co...
lapsed when the reading began o1
the letters handed in by Nine Guey
dany. She was carried insensible from
the courtroom.
The sitting of the court was i'm
mediately suspended amid great up,
roar, Maitre Labori had begun
reading the Gueydan letters. He re
marked when he took up the secont
one:
In this you will find burning love
but nothing indecent as common ru
NOR has reported"
In the letter NJ. Caillaux, writing
to the present Nine. Caillaux of hi
divorce from Nine. Gueydan, refer
red to the happiness he would fee
when he could press million kisse
over your dear body"
Nine. Caillaux, with her head ben
low, was crying bitterly. Her sob
could be heard all over the court
room. Then, with sigh, she fel

( standing near raised her AMI carrie

judges at once rose from their seat
and Judge Albanel announced tn

1t was rumored that the Gueyda
letters were the direct cause of tn
interchange between Judge Albant
and Judge Dagoury which resulte
in a challenge to fight a due.

said: A..
"The company is satisfied that the
TRANSFORMATION brotherhoods will not
take any part in this controversy, not
withstanding the efforts of some IN
