ANOTHER RECORD FOR HEAT
Su'trj Sunday Scorches Omaham with
Unexpected Tomditv.
MAXIMUM OF NINETY-THREE IS REACHED

Ionian Furnace.
. ,. '
Maximum, 93 above!
Bummerr The real" thing! Not long,
drawn-out, but sincere and genuine whlla
Jt lasted. That ia tbe history of yesterday.
Omaha Seemed engulfed In a hot wave from
tbe tropica that came with mischievous
abruptness and caught folks only half pre
pared. At 7 a. m. the government thermometer
registered 54 above and tbe Man laid
"I'mph!" At 12 o'clock It registered Tl
above and Man said "Phewl" At 4:41
o'clock It registered 63 above and Man said
well, never mind what be said. It will
be lumdeot to know that It waa something
about heat. At 9 o'clock it had fallen again
to 83 and the Man began to breaths easier.
During the night the temperature fell
appreciably, though a strong wind con
tlnued to blow.
ReeofA tor Several Yeara.
Omaha had an experience somewhat simi
lar to this a year ago. In 1941 the maximum
for April IT was 42 above at I p. m., for
-April 18 v was 7 at 5 p. m.. for April It
tt waa 64 at 2 p. m. and for April 20, which
was a year ago yesterday. It was 61 at 4
p. m. Tbe Welsh table of temperaturea,
taken at even hours, for tbla particular
day this year and In years past, reads:
1902. 1901. 19W. 1809. 18.
Maximum temp'r'tur 92 63 72 M 59
Minimum temperature 55 87 61 87 Tt
Mean temperature.... 74 60 tt 46 49
From this It will ba noted that the April
20 of 1902 Is 20 degrees warmer than the
next warmest April 20 In five years. An
other circumstance that . made humanity
feel the condition with extraordinary acute
ness yesterday was the fact that there have
been no previous very warm day this year
to prepare too unbrowned cuticles for such
an ordeal. - Tbe previous high mark for
1902 waa 71, . registered at 6 o'clock last
Thursday. Tbe month opened, with the
moderate maximum of 48 and lingered In
the forties and fifties for the first two
weeks. ' For last week the maximums were:
Sunday, 66; Monday, 69; Tuesday, 64 1
Wednesday, 58; Thursday, 71; Friday, 45 1
Saturday, 67.
What the Day Branch Ont.
The effect of the blast In Omaha waa to
make summer acenea crowd closely those of
last winter. ' Shady nooks became populous)
parka became popular and soda fountalna
became the Meccas of thirsty thousands.
Milady had but her openwork waist; tbe
bead of the. house had out hla openwork
hose and the hired man had out his open
work "growler," cut wide at the neck ami
very deep down the front and back.
The chap whose salary Isn't nearly as
large aa hla honest hands nor Ingenuity as
great aa his feet plodded about In the In
evitable, heavy Mask sutt, while the pers
' plratloa trickled from, hla crown to bis
soles and made him feel like courtplaater.
The other chap whose salary la larger than
either his hands, hla feet or possibly bis
head, waa alao rtght oat In plain sight to
get all that waa coming to him on the
strength of a new rig-up, which In color
' matched the seasoning on custard pis, but
which In appearance matched nothing else
on the Lord's green earth.
Very few knew Just how hot the day was
? aad of the other only about one man In
1 each ten was brave enough to confess la
, seriousness tbe figure be had In mind.

One of tbe principal gema of the evening

'Amusements.
At the Orphenm.
It is not often that an Omaha audience
ahouta bravoa after the performers as they
make their exlta from the atage, but thla
occurred at the Orpbeum Sunday afternoon
at the fialsb of the act of the Lee Trouba
dour Toulouslan quartet ot vocalists, who
occupy ths headline position on this week's
vaudeville program. It la not often either
that the occupants of gallery aeats on Sun
day night will allow vocalists singing clas
sical selections la foreign tongue to go en
tirely through their act without aa oc
casional Interruption la the way of a hiss
or jeer. Not only did the gallery refrala
from such misdeed during tha progress of
this remarkable quartet's act, but it was
more hearty In its approbation of the sing
ing than tbe usually more dignified cohorts
below stairs. After one hears tbe vocal
work of these French people tbe behavior
of yesterday' audience will b fully under
took, tor thslr performance ia certainly
far and away ahead of anything of tbe kind
that has been heard upon tbe Orpheum
atage. Tbe organisation Includes Madams
Balsa, a soprano with a voice of rare
power, purity of tone and cultivation; Mon
sieur Bslza, tenor; Mile. Jeanne, contralto,
and Mont. Louyrette, basso. Their reper
toire of selections Includes aa operatic ar
rangement of 8trauss "Blue Danube," the
finale of ' Faust and "The Angelus, a
piece arranged specially for them. The Har
mony Four, a quartet of aloglng comedlana.
were quite aa favorably received as the
French people. Their act Is decidedly
pleaatng and embodies some really good
comedy that la clean and wboleaome, and
some well rendered vocal and Instrumental
selections. Like the Troubadours they are
representative In their line of work. Lew
Bloom, the tramp comedian, with a aew lot
ot etorlea, joke aad parodies, road the
audience laugh heartily for a quarter of an
hour. Dooley and Fowler, black face come
dlaae; Loney Haakall, dialect comedian;
tbe Brother Gloss, gladiatorial gym oasts;
th three Dancing Dassons and the kin-
drome, with some new motion plcturea, In
cluding a Spanish bull fight and some
aceost at th Tranamlsalsalppl Exposltlaa,
mad up th balance of aa enjoyable pro
gram.

Th City Club Burleequers, with th Madi
son Square cycl whirl aa a continued at
traction, drew two large audience to Maa-
ager Rosenthal' playhouse yesterday. Th
cycl whirl, with two rider seemingly de
fying the law of gravitation, continues to
put ths people la front la an uproar of ex
eitement and admiration.
The show opens with a novel production
called The Convtcta," and cloaea with a
burlesque oatltled. "Are You aa Eagle."
Both pieces are put en with elaboration aa
to costume aad aeenie display, and la tbea
a score of pretty and vtvactou girl disport
themselves la song and dance. In the olio
first honor go to Jeannett Held, who gives
several good seags with th piquancy that
brought worldly fame to Anna of the aame

Th queatlon as to whether tbe Amea
Avenue park will be leaaed tor this season
by the Young Men's Christian association
will be settled by th board of director
tomorrow. Secretary Willis said Sunday
"Th indications are that we will not
change our athletic park, though as a mat.
tar of fact w hav In mind several other
traeta which seder certain conditions might
hav beea selected. One of them Is the eaat
tract of th old Kouatse park, near Nine
teentb and Spencer streets. This, next to
th Ames Avenue park, seem to be moat la
favor, but it would require a lot ot pre
llmmary work to fit K up. To begin with
w would have te get the consent of th
property owner la that locality to us th
tract aa aa athletic park and then would
come the erection ot a grandatand, bleach

aumerou other accessor!. On th whole
I tblak th tendency I to favor th Am

te Maay,
BRUSSELS. April 21. At a general coun
ctl of the labor party held here today It
was resolved that Work by the strikers In
all sections should be resumed. The coun
cil issued a manifesto to the worktngmen
to this effect this evening. Th anticipated
announcement by the crown ot the dissolu
tion of Parliament haa not been made.
The papers here contain vivid descrip
tions of tbe riots which occurred at Lou
vsln. near here, last Friday.
Tbe mob, which waa returning from the
station after meeting the socialist deputlea
from BrusepTs, divided Into two ban da, one
making for the residence of th prealdent
of the yChamber, M. Schoellaert, and the
other for that of the minister of the Inte
rior, M De Troox.
The first mentioned mob was led by a
man' of gigantic stature, flourishing a
butcher knife. After breaking through ths
ranks of one squad of the civic guard ths
mob found Its way blocked In a narrow lans
by another squad of the same organisation.
An officer of the guard ran forward and
called upon the mob to halt, shouting that
otherwise he would order his men to fire
a volley upon them. The rioters disrs-
garded thla order. The officer was about to
give the command to fire when the gigantic
leader of the rioters leaped forward and
eelsed the officer's throat with hla hand.
He pinned him against a wall and leveled
a pistol at his head.
Another officer yelled the order to fire
and ' plunged a bayonet Into the giant'
breaat. The foremost of the rioters grasped
th bayonet of the guards' leveled rifles
in their bare hands. The volley was fired
and In the narrow lane the mob was riddled
with bullets. Several were killed. The re
mainder of the rioters broke and fled.
In the meantime the other band of rioters
had a similar but less tragic experience.
In a collision between the rioter and the
guards a drummer of the latter broke from
the ranks and Joined the mob, shouting to
them to have no fear as tbe guarda were
only supplied with blank cartridges. Yell
ing the mob rushed on. It was met by a
volley from the guards. Two of the rioters
were killed and many were wounded.
Today the dead are lying In the Malson
des Proletaries, which haa beea converted
Into a raorutary chapel by drapings, can
dles and crucifixes.
Crowds ot workmen filed through the
building during the day.

Steyn, president of the Orange Free State,

where accept the terms, aa they are in no
way aaxlous for a winter campaign.

citrant. In the meantime there will be no
cessation of hostilities.

sation of hostilities.

Mail says It 1 recognized there that the
Boer delegate at Pretoria have full powers
to negotiate without reference to the Boer
leaders In Europe, who hav no real Influ
ence on the peace negotiations.

Th hustling committee of the Knights
of Ak-Sar-Bea will meet at Ralduff's Tues
day at noon and make preparation for a re
newed campaign In behalf of the parade
fund. A member of this committee said:
"I wish tbe people we call upon would

business men who hav no time to lose.
When we call man should know the
amount he ran afford to give. We do not
ssk tbe money now, but w do ask th
pledge and we should receive It without so
much delay and argument. It the annual
festival does any good tbe people ran afford
to subscribe. If It does not do aay good w
should be permitted to know that our ef
forts are not appreciated. It should not
take the people we call upon long to deter
mine, and w should under no circum
stances be asked to call again, it a man
expects to give let him have bis pledge
ready. It he has not already mailed tt to the
secretary. If he does not intend te give
let him say so and the matter will be
closed."

that tbe horse play and rough handling
which has marked the Initiation In previous
year has been entirely eliminated and that
the work this year will be both dignified
and Impressive, withal giving the Initiates

Ins. M'KINLEY MONUMENT FUND
Contributions from Mebraaka Not Half
the Amount Eapeeted
at Flrat.
The latest statement Issue ty the seo
retary of the McKlnley Memorial associa
tion of Nebraska shows tbe total contrl
butlons to the fund to be $2,305.47, which
includes sn smount of money sent by the
donors direct to the national association
When the work began It was expected that
Nebraska would contribute $5,000 to ths
fund, but the officers of the state sssocla-
tlon do not now expect to raise the total
contributions to that amount. An effort
will be made In a day or two to close up
the subscriptions and forward the final con
tributions to the treasurer ot the national
association. It Is hoped that before thl Is
done the total amount of subscriptions will
be $2,600 one-half of the amount which was
expected from the state by the national as
soclatton. At the present time the cttlea
of Omaha and Lincoln have contributed
practically nothing to the fund outside of
the small aum raised by tbe schools snd s
fair-sized donation from a society ot past
office employes.
The last subscriptions received, which
brings the total to the amount mentioned,
are as follows:

THINGS COMING BERKA'S WAY
County Attorney Reooa-nlaes Him nnd
Connty Board Promises to
Take Vaarraate.
Police Judge Berka feel that things are
coming his way and bis smile has length
ened accordingly. County Attorney Shields
has finally admitted that he had no very
sound reason for declining to recognize
Berks and has promised to take bis cases
through the police court hereafter. Instead
of through tbe less convenient and expedl
tlous course ot justice shop preliminaries.
This waa on pleasant bit of news for
Berka. Another Is th promts of County
Commtssloaer Harte that th county will
relieve the polic court of certain conBrme
vagrants hereafter and care for the same In
the almshouse.
These latter Individuals have been a
source of considerable worry to the magis
trate for soma time. He says that the ap
plication of the vagrancy law to them seems
a farce, as they are physically unable to do
a day's work or even a half-day'a and to
confine them in the Jail serve only to as
sure them of st lesst something to eat and
without any foraglag on their part. The
Judge says he has about a half-dozen of
these on bis staff of police court "regulars'
and so long aa they are practically a charge
on the county anyhow be thinks the com
missioners may as well put them where
other needy are cared for.
