During the most oppressive,dkys of the late hot spell while the therniome-' ,ter was 92 degrees in Chicago, 08 degrees In St. Louis, 92 degree* in Boston, 90 degrees in Montreal, 94 degrees in Toronto and 94 degrees in Detroit, the temperature of Buffalo was 82 degrees. The highest that the thermometer recorded during the week was 8(1 degrees, coinpar* ®d with a record in other cities of a tepiperature ranging from 9*l to 164 degrCea. It 'fs, therefore, seen that anyone contemplatiag a trip te the Pan-American Exposition need not postpone their journey on account of the hot weather, as Buffalo Is one of the coolest places on the continent snd conditions will «n----doubledlv be maintained during the summer, judging from the records of past seasons.
