it was IS degrees in the shade, according
to our ever-conservative Weather
Bureau; June 3. 49, June 4, "a, and
June S. SO, with 430 heat prostrations
recorded.
What makes the writer recall so clear
ly this hot spell is that about 1890
O'Clock in the evening the caravan
began arriving, his phone bell rang. and
he was asked If he could take care of
two members Of the Rhode Island Legis-
lature and their wives who were suffo-
eating on the top floor of the New
Ebbitt-which was the Shrine head
ouarterS-with no air except such as
might 'percolata" through one of these

THE Washington Press Club seems to
have been local in its character
and included only such members of the
press as we're employed. or connected
with, Washington newspapers. Two
items regarding the formation Of this
club appear in The Star of September
10 and 26, 1867. The one at the earlier
date reads:
"a washington Press Cuba meet
ing of the editors and reporters Of the
several papers in this city was held
yesterday afternoon at the Republican
Office, for the purpose Of organizing a
local press club.
THE meeting was called to order by
Mr.. Arthur Shepherd and on his mo-
ton, Mr.. John c. Proctor was chosen
temporary chairman, and r. r. Boisseau
of The Star, temporary secretary.
Mr.. Sprigman stated that the object
Va IIIC iIlCCLnlB was W 1OIlA q pICoS
club for the purpose of cultiyating good
feeling and friendship among the mem
bers of the press and moved that
committee of seven be appointed to
draft a constitution and bylaws for
the government of this association,
which motion was adopted, and the fol-
lowing gentlemen were appointed as
such committee: Messrs. Sprigman,
Shepherd. NantZ, Croggon, Harris, Cur
It's and Proctor.
"Mr. Preston moved that committee
OF five be appointed to select pern1a-
nent officers for the association, which
motion was adopted and the chair APP
