grees In the shade in the downtown
district, the heat at the close of the day
yesterday began slowly to recede and
1 by midnight had been reduced by about
• 12 degree*. Old settlers and others
! united in the declaration that it was
' the hottest day they had ever known,
jlt was no ordinarily hot day; the heat,
j seemed to roll along in waves; a slight
| breexe was blowing, but it did not cool
the air, merely stirred up the heat to
Renewed exertion.
Yet in splte of all this’hot air, peo-
■ pie went about their duties as usual.
Building permits wer issued yester-
day in the city as follow:
To W. F. Howard, one-story frame

the files with their tails and appeared
to care little for the heat. People
spoke of the hot day smilingly, seemed
to regard it as a novel experience and
no one appeared to have any fear of
the sun's rays. The absence of hu-
midity helped to make the day bear-
; able, but the lack of the usual gulf

some.
The weather bureau does not prom-
ise relief from the heat very soon, fol-

region east of the Mississippi is central

the past twenty-four hours light to

with sending threatening letters
through the malls. It is claimed that

A long distance call from the post-
master at Brady, Texas, notified the
inspectors’ office in this city that 835
