Intense Heat in Chicago.

MEN AND HORSES PROSTRATED MERCURY AT 99°.

A Chicago despatch of the 2nd inst, says: Chicago has sweltered and groaned under many 4 hot sun this summer, but the heat to-day eclipsed anything experienced here since the flames of the big fire swept over the city. The heat of one month ago, when nearly 1,000 people were prostrated, did

-not compare with the fiendish glare of the sun to-day. Fromthe 70’s the mercury crawled up to 84°, and then to 96°, and finally to 99°. The wind blew from the south-west, and was a blast from a retort. It stifled people, and sent horses and men to their knees in all parts of the city. Thou- sands of mechanics were forced to leave

their work. On Warren avenue, the sun beat down so fiercely that two painters fell from the scaffolding upon which they were working, and were picked up in a dying condition. They were taken to a hospital. Not since the memorable Sunday of :hree years ago, when 100 people were killed by the sun, have the streets been as deserted as they were to-day. It was courting death to walk a half dozen blocks. Where there was no shade, and where the reflected heat reached its maxi- mum, big thermometers registered 118 deg. Casualties resulting from terrific heat are

‘being reported every moment. Men and horses were prostrated in all parts of the city. A German known only as *‘ Jo” and Joseph Rudkosski were prostrated on the north side. Neither can live through the night.

At 9 o'clock to-night it was estimated that 60 people had been sunstruck during the day. Thirty of these will die. The mortality among horses was appalling. These animals fell everywhere, and the dead carts of the health department were kept running all day in order to drag the swollen carcases from the streets and alleys, Many dead horses still remain where they fell. The heat to-night is un- bearable. Thousands of people are sleep- ing out of decors in a furnace breeze, which is still blowing from the prairies in the southwest. At 9 o'clock to-night the big thermometer on Fifth Avenue registered 98 deg.

WITH THE

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. a siieidibbiekod A Grievance.

Sir,—The steamer Heather Belle, run- ning between here and Charlottetown, has left the Government wharf and moved to a private wharf, where there is no accommo- dation for the public. Why this change has taken place the people are at a loss to know.

The Dominion Government appointed a wharfinger about four or five weeks ago, after all the spring importations were landed free of wharfage, and this person being a supporter of the Government, a certain clique, well known, held a council meeting and decided that one of their num- ber should reap the benefit of collecting wharfage, and hence the removal of the steamer to a private wharf that is piled up with cedar posts and shingles to no end, and it takes a good driver to turn a horse without a vehicle attached on this notorious esplanade.

It was feared, when the steamer arrived on Saturday evening, that if the usual rush occurred that some of our friends would lose their balance on lumber piles and be precipitated into the briny deep ; but pro- videntially the steamer did not reach the wharf, and deal and boards were passed to

‘the boat and secured with lines, and in this

way some of the folks reached the esplan- ade and the others remained on board to wait the rising of the tide. It is rumored that one gentleman fell overboard into the This may only be arumor, as the writer canaot vouch for its accuracy. ; The public are dissatisfied with the man- Against Capt.

‘gentleman iu every sense of the word, but | _unless the shareholders, or those who have

control of the steamer, give the people of this section better accommodation than this and place her at the proper wharf, I fear they will petition the Government to withdraw the subsidy or provide some boat that will look to the interests of the people generally, and not confine the monopoly to a few individual grabbers. All we ask in this country is fair play. Let us have it.

JUSTICE,

Victoria, Aug. 4, 1890.

Decreasing the Death Rate.

The mortality among consumptives has been materially decreased of late years by the use

‘animal.

, the year. _cows that average over 300 lbs; they pre- duced one year 357 los. of butter apiece.

Breeding is the foundation; fee. -

ing is the finish. We have, for instanc:,

so poor a lot of cows in this State that thes

do not average 125 lbs. of butter apiece tur Yet Mr. Goodrich has a herd «f

How did }e get them to do this? Why, he started right. [le commenced by laying the foundation of a butter cow. How ¢ By

better breeding, by being intelligent in the use of principles that lie at the bottom of all butter breeding.

Principles are the tools of the breeder. He must understand how to use them, In order to acquire understanding he must study not only the work as it lies in his own hands but the work and experience of others. Another man has a sheep, and the carcass of that sheep would weigh say seventy pounds. lsawa lamb m Canada two years ago, eight weeks old, that weigh- ed seventy pounds. What is the difference between the two animals / One is a pro- duct of intelligence in breeding and treat- ment, and the other a product of the lack of intelligence. Now we have a low average ‘of beef cattle, of dairy cattle and of mutton ‘sheep. We havea better grade in hogs than in anything else.

With all our farm animals there is a ser- ious lack of the principles of breeding. I want to call your attention to some of the facts that show that very plainly. The trot- ting horsemen do not lack ina study how to produce a trotting horse, nor the draft- horse men in the study of how to produce a draft horse; neither does the bird-dog breeder, or the fox-hound breeder, lack in study. Why? Because they hold steadily to the principles that are in line with the animal’s function. No fox-hound breeder mixes up his breed ; he never goes to cross- ing with the mastiff or the bull-dog, or the shepherd dog, with the idea that he is going to geta good fox-hound. Yet the average farmer in Wisconsin has no other idea to-day but to make hash of his breed. He crosses here and there and everywhere. One man said at an institute, one day, that he had started with Merinos, and c with Cotswolds, and then crossed with Ox- fords, and then he crossed with Shrop- shires, and says he, ‘*‘ My sheep ain’t worth anything.” 1 was a good deal struck with the vigor of the man’s statement. He said : ‘*They are neither worth anything for wool nor for mutton.” That is one con- clusion | want to present to you.

if 1 want to pull a bell at the top ofa building and make it ring I have a rope. Supposing that rope was made up ofa strong piece of rope one foot long, a rotten piece of cordage another foot and the line up to the bell was broken in two and — tied so as to barely hang together. and that there was no straight, strong rope clear to the bell—I could not ring the bell, because if I laid hold of it vigorously I would break the rope. ‘That illustrates line breeding. What is needed in Wisconsin (or Prince Edward !sland) to-day is for farmers to be- gin to study more particularly into the value of line breeding; breeding in line for what we need, and not break up that line by foolish crosses ; we make hash if we do. You cannot make chopped straw into a* good strong band. Chopping up breeds produces the same result.

What is breeding based on! It is based

on heredity. We use another word, po- tency or prepotency. TheJew is the most wonderfully inbred man of all men on earth. He has been inbred since the very day he left the Egyptians. You may breed him with any race on earth, cross him with any woman in the world, and the child will be a Jew more than anything else. Now, those are principles that apply right here, just the same with animals as with men. What is the reason of that? Because the Jew has established a type so potently and powerfully that the moment the current of his blood strikes a current of other blood, the Jew current takes possession of the other, and the result is a Jew. Now, that is a valuable thing to study on; that is the meaning of pedigree. Some men sneer at pedigree and say that it is worth nothing. Pedigree has a long number of agreeing bloods behind it in the line. Men need not only a good specimen of the individual animal, but they need a long line of fathers jand mothers of the same line of character- istics, so that there is a constant agreement and augmentation and enlargement of the functions for which the breeding is done.

| Itis awell known fact to-day that ifa ,| Texas steer is given a quarter of a bushel of cornmeal as his ration, and you take a ‘Short-horn steer and feed him the same quantity, you will get very different results. |Why ? Because the power to assimilate |food and produce meat has been bred into ithe Short-horn, and by a constant, slow process built up. The Texas steer has never been bred for anything except to get ‘over the ground, and I know from experi- ‘ence that he con do that. I once had 300 of them chase me two miles across a prairie, and if a man is to be judged by the enthu- ‘siasm of his following, [ was the most pop- ‘ular man ever seen in Texas. Now, there ‘are certain principles that I want to bring out in order to show that the farmer needs
