Superintendent Morgan met Capt. W. (". MacMackin. who was for many years supervisor of the road improve ment in Wake and worked convicts very largely. '-.From Mr. Mackin Mr. Morgan gathered a deal of information regarding the work in Wake. Mr. Me Mackin also offered to drive Mr. Mor gan over sections of the improved toads in Wake, but the latter seemed to hesitate about visiting the camps without Chairman Adams or some offi cial representing him.

The sun roso at 37 minutesiaf- ter 4 o clock this morning, and not until S 4 minutes past 7 o'clock will it disappear from our view this even ing and give the heated earth's crust it chance to get its breath and cool off, :ind in a little over nine hours an other hot day will begin. Hut this does not moan of course that at this time comes tho hottest temperature of the year, for it is a fact throughout science that there is always a lag between a cause and its effect. For instance, in the case of the temperature each day, tho .extremes- do not occir at the moments of the sun's arrival at the turning points. If thoy did we should have tho highest 'temperature always at noon and tho lowest at midnight. As t matter of fact of coarse the hottest part of the day is always between 3 unrl 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and the coldest at sunrise. The reason oi this is that tho temperature is reg ulated by the contact of tho atmos phere with the earth's surface rather than bv the rays of tho sun which pass through the air without much effect upon it. Several hours are re tinirod to boat the crust of- the earth to its utmost after tho extreme rays have started to act upon it, am! in like manner several hours are consumed in the cooling off process after the mm lias been removed to its farthest point ihe other side of the earth. So at this season the heat that we receive from tho sun is greatest,- but I the earth's crust is not yet sufficiently heated to give tho maximum temper atures, which will not occur until ,luiy. At that time tho cooling of tho earth at night will do no more than strike a balance with the baking it receives during tho day, and conse nuentlv tho tomneratures will be highest then. . The shortest day in the year is De cember 21, and the equinoxes are March 2t and Sop tern her 21. The soda cracker is an ideal food: Unocda Biscuit ae the ideal soda crackers.

Cudahy & Company, ind the Nelson Morris Packing Com pany were tried jointly and convicted on the charge oi accepting concessions from the liurliiigton railroad ,in con nection with connecting lines on pack- ig house products for export via New York. The Burlington Railroad Company was convicted on four counts of grant ing concessions to the packing com panies of Arn.our, Swift and Cudahy and Nelson Morris. The penalty pro vided In the case of tho packers and the Burlington involves a fine of from S1.000 to $20,000 on each count, but not imprisonment. The cases of the Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul and the Chicago- & Alton ailroad companies, charged with of fering concessions, and D. H. KrcsKy, freight broker of !, Kansas City. harced with conspiring to secure con cessions from the railways, were dis missed upon the suggestion of District Attorney Van Valkenburgh, who stat ed that he believed the railroads had in this case been Imposed upon. As the. ease against Kresky was predicat ed upon that against tho railroads It as useless to try him. In the case of the Chicago and Alton itliway Company and J. N. Faithorn, a former vice president, and V. A. Wann, its former assistant traffic man ager, rharged witn naving given cuu- esslons to the Schwarzschild and Sulz berger Packing Company, the defend ants st;t up n plea of immunity upon the ground that some of their em ploves had testified before a federal grand Jury at Chicago concerning the seme transactions for which they later were indicted at Kansas City. Judge McPhcrson sustained the government's demurrer to this plea, but continued the cases over until next fall, when the similar cases at Chicago probably will have bem disposed ot.
