HOT AT LEWISTON
lO6-lO3 RECORDED
CITY IN CANYON HAD FOUR
DAYS IN JULY WITH HEAT
MORE THAN 100
(Lewiston Tribune.)


The weather for the past two days
has been of a character not to be
ignored by any person and has been
a subject of universal comment.
On Tuesday the temperature rose
from SO to LOG, with humidity of So
at 5 a. m.
Yesterday it climbed from 81 to
1O3, with humidity at 55, giving the
general impression of being the hot
test day of the season, it probably
being the most oppressive.
The weather bureau forecasts "un-
settled and cooler" for today. The
forecast by 'X. Y. e." the first of the
week was that the highest tempera-
ture would probably be reached about
the middle of the week, bringing
storm conditions and followed by
much cooler weather by the close of
the week.
July has had four days with tenn
perature 100 degrees or higher but,
on the whole, it has not been an espe-
cially hot month for this locality and,
with the exception of few days of
unusual humidity, has been Of good
character for the summer season.

WAREHOUSE RATES
MAY Be ADVANCED
HEARING AT LEWISTON ON APP
PLICATION OF IDAHO WARE
HOUSEMEN FOR RAISE

LEWISTON, Idaho.-Testimon of
warehousemen from the district
about Lewiston agreed that an
advance of rates is necessary to meet
the expenses of operating warehouses
at the meeting of the Idaho public
utilities commission at the city hall
here yesterday. Virtually every grain
station in Nez Perce, Clearwater,
Lewis and Idaho counties was repre-
sented.
The testimony offered by the ware
house operators before A. L. Free
hafer of the commission will be
transcribed and forwarded to Boise,
where it will be considered, and it is
expected that decision will be rem
dered by the full board before the
middle of next week. The data sub
mitted by the warehousemen show
the volume of business for the last
three years and the receipts and ex-
penditures in connection with the
business.
Operating Costs Increase.
1t was generally agreed by the
witnesses that the cost of operating
warehouses this year will be 20 per
cent higher than last year. One
warehouseman, who is operating his
storehouse exclusively as storage
proposition, stated that his loss last
season was in the neighborhood of
$4,000.
Many of the warehousemen are
also engaged in handling machinery,
feed, fuel and other merchandise and
they declare that the profits from
these activities are necessary to take
care of the deficit from operating the
warehouses under the present rates.
Larger Crop Predicted.
Questions put to the witnesses
brought out the fact that the crops
normal and with the exception of the
last year were considerably below
actual expenses Of employing men to
handle the grain the overhead ex-
pense in conducting the warehouse is
about the same with light crop as
a heavy. It was generally agreed
that the prospects are favorable for
a much greater tonnage of grain this
season than last.

OREGON OUTLAWS
EvAD|NG POSSES
BELIEF THAT MEN WHO BROKE
JAIL AND KILLED SHERIFF
ARE NEAR MEACHEM

| PENDLETON, Ore-Two men be-
| lieved to be members of the band who
escaped from the county jail here last
Sunday after killing Sheriff Taylor
were seen late yesterday by passing
railroad train crew, sitting on the
bank of Meacham creek some 20 miles
from here. One man was said to be
wearing a white handkerchief tied
around his head, and members Of the
train crew thought he was Hart, the
alleged Indian slayer of Taylor.
Following receipt of the report here
a posse left hurriedly, declining to
disclose it's destination. They had
not returned up to a late hour.
Among the possemen yesterday at
tempting to trail the fugitives were
three Indians headed by Glen Bushee,
known to his tride as ChiefTail-Pine
who had been a friend of Hart and
Owens, leaders of the Jail breakers.
Besides the report made by the
railroaders yesterday numerous evan
escent clues cropped up from time to
time, but the officers here said that
none proved reliable upon investiga-
tion
Belief that the other escaped pris-
oners are in the vicinity of Meachem,
also southeast of PendletOn, is held.
A report was received from there that
three men had been seen. A small
forest fire is raging in the vicinity of
Meachem and posse leaders are hope
full that this may drive the fugitives
into their hands.
A cache of food has been found by
a posse near Meachem. This is be-
ieved to have been the property of
he gang. All automobiles in the vi
,inity have been stopped, for officials
believe the escaped men may attempt |
% capture a machine.
Additional guards and dogs were
to the Meachem district |
rom Pendleton early yesterday

On the Vern Haven farm, five
miles northeast of town, small
patch of barley has just been cut, and
shocked. The barley was sowed last
fall and got good stand and did not
winter kill. The shocks are of enorm-
Gus size and so thick on the ground
it will be difficult for wagon to
drive between them. Estimates of a
yield of 80 bushels per acre have been
made on the field. The barley was
cut and shocked Wednesday by Mr..

How to Wash Windows Rapidly.

A professional house cleaner once
told me how to wash my windows
easily and rapidly. Use piece of
chamois skin about Is to 1S inches
square. Use warm water, wiring out
the chamois lightly, and wash over
the window Then wiring the chamois
out of water until as dry as possible,
and rub over the window This will
take off all moisture, and there will
be no lint left. The windows will
shine, and once tried. you will never
wash your windows by the old way

Some Very Heavy Oats.

On the old Jamison place, just
north of town, is a small patch of
oats that are about the best seen in
this section this year. The oats are
between five and six feet tall, when
they stand straight, but are so heavy
they have lodged to some extent. The
field, which is small, as there are but
a 1-2 acres in this tract, is being cut
with scythe, for hay. The oats will
probably yield three tons per acre
and make the finest kind of hay.
