ed that before his discovery"
by Sanders a little more than
four years ago, Ben Hooper had

Newport, Cooke county. In the
country town where he first hung
out his single, as a practicing
attorney, Ben Hooper made a
success and yet calls that place

smaller town of Camden, Benton

he do it? No. At the age of
forty, Mr.. Rye left the town Of
Camden and moved to Paris,
where he was fortunate in being
elected some four years ago to
the Office Of attorney -general-a
position filled in but few instan

they want the system changed
to make m ire high schools; now
any man with reasonable sense
knows that will not work to any
advantage as the country schools
are not long enough to do any
good. We pay now in and around
$45 per month to the teachers to
keep a little rural school. If
we get high school teacher for
every school it will cost bout
$75 per, then that cuts out the
mum Der of months. We have a
system of education now requir-
ing 4 years in high school for
graduation before he can enter
any university for higher train
ing, and it must be a recognized
high tchool too. How many un-
iversities would recognize such
high school with 3 months Of
school each year? Some meet
this by saying lets have less

ntsrm early Saturday Morning A.

Kept Up All
Day.

FRIDAY was the hottest June day
On record in the history Of the local
weather once. The high record for
June, 1901, Of 9sh degrees on June
10 was beaten Friday by one-half de
sree. The temperature onicially, &C
eording to the figures Of Observer
Gosewisch WAS 100 degrees. This will
stand as the highest June day tenn
perature unless the remaining three
days Of the month can do something
better.
The heat Friday was intense, the
only relief being that there was prac-
tscally no humidity in the air. Had
there been the amount OF dampness
that prevailed earlier In the week.
the day would have been unbearable.
Al It was there was great deal OF
suffering, and while no heat prostra-
lions were reported there was grave
danger OF troubles from this source.
EARLY yesterday morning, between
one and two o'clock KeOkuk was Wis
tied by rain, accompanied by some
sharp lightning and thunder. The
storm lasted for only short time,
and had the effect Of cooling the air
perceptibly. The rainfall was in belts,
according to statements made here.
Some OF the residents on the south
side of the city out some distance
from the center OF Main street said
that only about thimblefull Of water
fell and that the sidewalks were not
vet.
Reports in the local weather ONCE
yesterday were that storm was CEN
trail about st. Paul and the northern
part Of lows. The storm was report
ID as being over with, so far Is Keo-
kuk was concerned, with the excep-
ton Of the wind which was blowing
most Of the day yesterday.
Cooler temperature was recorded
last evening. ana the weather man
figured that, while today would be
warmer It probably would not be as
hot as some OF the other Sundays
have been.
The hot weather OF q week has had
the effect Of making the Ice man and
the ice cream parlor ma smile
broadly.
