Richmond b weltered in the hottest day of the summer today, it being 96 degrees "above" at the Richmond pumping station, while on Main street 110 to 115 degrees were registered.

Twelve teiners are reported to have been owned at Uniontown, Pa., when the ivein in which they were working was flooded with water this afternoon. ' One of (he heaviest rains in many rears is falling over all portions of the state. Streams and rivers are ! rising many inches each hour. Merchants and residents are preparing for the biggest flood In the history of the valley. At Pro Cragdock, Pa., some of the i streets are under water. WASHING FURNITURE. Easy to Roster Tarnished Pieces te ! Original Freshness. 1 "Very few people know that furnliture ought to be washed," said a salesLman in the furniture section of a large department store. "Yet," he continued, ( "It Is the best thing one can do to keep furniture looking as well as It should. One should take a bucket of tepid raincrater and make a suds with a good pure soap. Then with a soft piece of cheesecloth all the woodwork should be washed. It is astonishing how much dirt will come off. A second piece of cheesecloth shouldbe wrung dry out of hot water. On thls,sheuld be poured a tablespoon of first class furniture polish. ; The heat will spread the polish through the cloth. Next the furniture Bhould be gone over with the second cloth. There will be no need of putting on more polish, for that much will do all one needs. Too many persons tuafee the mistake of using too much polish and leaving it thick on the furniture, where It looks dauby and where It gathers more dirt." There la furniture in homes today that is cast off because of its appearance when it might be brought back to Its original freshness by this simple process of washing. Many persons do not know that a fine bit of mahogany Is Improved by careful washing, and hundreds of pianos have never been more than dusted- in years. A square of cheesecloth if or the washing and an- ' other for the ' polishing will do the work, and the iresult will well repay the effort. Indianapolis News.

CONDITION UNCHANGED

Emperor Passed an Unfavorable Night. (National News Association) TOKIO, Japan, July 24. Emperor Muhsuthito passed an unfavorable night and the hopes of the Empress and attending physicians which had been raised by favorable developments yesterday, were again at a low ebb today. An official bulletin issued today read: "Last night the Emperor did not have much sleep. His temperature is 99.5. His pulse action is 88 and although irregular is strong. Steady general fatigue is noticeable. He was able to take some nourishment. Dr. Muria, who has been in almost constant attendance at the bedside since the monarch's condition became critical, said today there would have to be further signs of improvement in his condition before his recovery could be discussed. "If the emperor can hold what strength he now has and show other signs of Improvement there will be some hope for him," the doctor said. "The cooler weather that has prevail ed since Sunday has been one point in his favor." Hew to Brighten a Dark Room. In nearly every home there is always sure to be one dark and gloomy room. It casts its depression upon all who enter it, and yet one is often at a loss as to what should be done to dissipate the lugubrious effect. It should be dealt with ruthlessly. White paint and enamel should be used with a generous hand. Dark woodwork should not be tolerated, and dull or gloomy paper should be avoided. Hang the room in a paper of sunny yellow hue. put up only curtains of thin net and decorate your walls with pictures framed In white and gold and silver gray frames. Many mirrors, if possible, should be used, for they aid wonderfully in brightening a dark room, but they must not bo hung too high, as they will only reflect the ceiling, -while they should catch the cheerful frame of an open fire and repeat its gleam. How to Keep Baby's Cap Clean. Cap strings are difficult to keep dainty and clean unless you are constantly changing them. To remedy this make two rosettes of narrow ribbon and attach to a strip of ribbon long enough to reach from one side of the cap to the other, passing beneath the chin. Cfasp fasteners hold the rosettes firmly to the cap. Different colored rosettes may be made to wear with the same cap. How to Soften Starched Buttonholes. Always moisten with the tongue on the wrong side the buttonholes of starched collars, cuffs and shirts just before attempting to button them or put in cuff buttons. That will soften the starch slightly so that they will button easily, and the buttonholes will never tear out. Try it once and you will always do it afterward. How to Press Heavy Cloth. Pressing heavy cloth should be done on a board without any soft cloth beneath. The pressing should be done on the right side of the goods principally, having, of coarse, a cloth laid between to prevent marks of the Iron. How to Clean Range. Instead of blacking the range buy a fifty cent can of aluminium paint and cover the range. It will be a thing of beauty and a Joy forever, no blacking to burn off and soil light dresses and aprons.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND STTN-TIXEGRAM. WEDXESTJ AT JULY 24,

Sporting Gossip Five members of the Appleton Wisconsin-Illinois League team are batting for .300 or better. The Boston Red Sox have won eight of the twelve games played with the Detroit TJigers this season. Bob Bescher, of the Cincinnati Reds, is the leading run-getter and ase-steal-er in the National League. J The Mountain States League has disbanded. Tho blow-up of the Huntington team put the organization on the rocks., i The White Sox scouts have gathered quite a bunch of minor leaguers for . Jimmy Callahan to try out this Fall. : The Salem team which has been leading the Ohio and Pennsylvania League, was recently transferred to Fairmont, W. Va. After winning sixteen straight game sthe New York Giants lost seven of the first nine games played on their Western trip. The great work of the Chicago Cubs of late has caused New York fans to sit up and rubber in the direction of the stock yards. Charlie Dooin believes that his team will go higher in the National League race and has picked out second place for the Quakers. Manager Griffin, of the Richmond team, and Manager Busch, of the Petersburg team, are tied for the batting honors in the Virginia League. After August 20, the number of players carried by teams of the American and National Leagues can be increased from twenty-five to thirty-five. It took Ray Collins a couple of months to get into condition, but since hitting his stride he has done wonderful work for the Boston Red Sox. Pitching must be in the middle name of the Brown family. The Chicago Cubs, the St. Louis Browns, the Boston Braves and the Athletes all have a pitcher named Brown. Larry Lejeune, of the Grand Rapids team, has made sixteen home runs this season. He was ried out by Brooklyn last season and sent back to the Central League. The chances are a number of major league clubs would like to have Harry Krause now that the former Philadelphia star is pitching championship ball for Toledo. Manager Charlie Carr, of the Kansas City team, and Claude Rpssman. of the Minneapolis Millers, are running neck and neck for the batting honors in the American Association. The Sherman Club, of the TexasOklahoma League, has signed a big Indian by the name of Tincup who is said to be a wonderful pitcher. Tincup and pitcher is a soothing combination. Nearly a quarter of a century ago Jesse Burkett was one of the leading batters of the National League, and today the same Jesse is the leading swatsmith of his Worcester team.

Many women have in their possession a lace veil which Is either worn in places or is unbecoming. There are many ways to utilize this apparently useless article. A pretty guimpe fashioned of a veil of black chantilly lace is effective with almost any gown. Buy a pattern the correct size and cut out the lace. Never cut through a design, but around it, so when sewed together the guimpe will appear woven in one piece. The new spring styles In millinery display a great variety of lace covered hats. These are especially pretty and will harmonize with any gown. To fashion one of these purchase a flat pancake shape of straw the desired color. Carefully arrange the lace veil as smoothly as possible over the entire hat. Fasten firmly tip on the inside crown and sew In a lining of soft silk. The upper brim is void of trimming, but underneath is a garland of roses. This hat is especially pretty to wear with lingerie gowns and may be of black or white lace. Another charming use for a discarded lace veil is to fashion a Marie Antoinette fichu. This Is entirely a matter of artistic draping. Fold the veil in half and pin the center to the middle of the back. Arrange in graceful folds over the shoulders and tack down with thread, then tie together with a soft knot and allow the ends to bang In front The loose panel is a leading feature of the summer frock. The lace veil may be used for this purpose. HOW TO CARE FOR TEETH. i " Castile Soap and Precipitate of Chalk Good Dentifrice.The teeth add so much to one's appearance that one cannot fee oo thorough in the care of them. They have a great deal of work to do. They aid in the digesting of the food; they are beautifiers, and, like all things which have several duties to perform, they need constant attention and care. If the teeth of an individual are kept entirely free from particles of food and tartar they will not become decayed, but if they are not thoroughly kept clean they will decay quickly. After every- meal any. particles of food which may be lodged in the teeth should be removed with a small piece of dental floss. One should take especial care as to what tooth powders and washes one uses. Many lotions and powders contain injurious acids, which Instead of preserving and cleaning the teeth ruin the enamel. If the teeth are cleaned daily with white cast lie soap and precipitate of chalk they can be kept in condition. Occasionally they should be washed with an antiseptic lotion. One should never use a brush which Is too stiff, as it Is hard on the enamel. The teeth should be rubbed up and down, so that the bristles can get in between the teeth, removing all parti cles. Many will take the greatest care to keep the outside of the teeth in perfect condition, but neglect the back of them. This needs just as much attention and, although a little harder to reach, should be cleaned injlhe June way.

BLAME F0ll WRECK Divided. No One Is Held Criminally Negligent, Although 13 Died. CHICAGO, July 24. Censure for the wreck of the Denver limited on the Burlington Railroad at Western Springs, in which thirteen persons lost their lives, was divided between Signal Operator Mrs. F. A. Wilcox and Flagman Frank Woodworth, by the coroners jury that heard the evidence in the Inquiry. The officials and employes of the road were also consured for falling to provide proper safeguards for passengers, but no one was held criminally negligent. Engineer Bronson of the Omaha mail, who was killed in the wreck is blamed for having run at such a high rate of speed that he could not see signals. The verdict however, stated that the engineer had done everything he could to check his train after he had received a danger signal. AFFECTED BY HEAT Fred Glegle, who when arrested for drunk invariably pleads not guilty, changed his mind in the hot jail cell this afternoon and entering a plea of guilty was fined $5 and costs. HOW TO IMPROVE FARM STOCK The Importance of Always Breeding Straight. One of the prime objects in mating farm animals is to Increase the hardiness. No matter what other merits the sire or dam may have. If they are not strqpgly constituted they will not Impart that vigor which Is so necessary for successful growth. Strictly thoroughbreds are not always In the pink of condition. They sre very apt to hare a weakness that if Imparted to the offspring win result In failure. So that when it comes to mating farm animals one of the most intricate and difficult problems that one might be required to solve Is presented, and there should not be any rash ventures made. Those who are affected with the cross craze, whether in bogs, cattle or horses, should select the breed, that suits them best. As a general thing the best breed for any one Is Ilie breed one likes best or of which one can secure well bred sires with tt-e least trouble and expense. If a ran likes Poland China and can get good sires of that breed he should ly all means breed Poland Chinas; If Chester Whites, he should select that breed. If he likes Tamwortha for the good they can do, especially If he has his pigs come In May and June and keeps them through the year, then he should get the Tamworths. Then In selecting males always have the breeder give an extended pedigree that is, a pedigree that will show the breeding for at least four generations on each side. Note how often It goes back to some particular sire. Running back two or three times would not be objectionable, possibly would be desirable, but one should be sure that he is not breeding so close In line as to Injure the vitality of the herd.
