Signal Observer Ford, in a statement to
the Morning News some data ago, gave
the rainfall during the month of .tune,
Uf76. as 19.9 inches. In his official month

on Saturday, it was given as 6.11 inches,
making the rainfall of the past month
greater than that of any year Mnce 1972.
A later comparison of tables, however,
corroborates his first statement which
makes the rainfall of June this year
about half of that in 1976.
CHATHAM'S CHANCE AT NEW OR
LEANS.
Meeting at the Exchange Thli After
noon to Organlie a Plan for the Ex
hibit.
Since the appointment of Judge Harden
as Commissioner from Chatham county
to the New Orleans Exposition and the
start towards an exhibit of the resources
of this locality was made, there has been
an enthusiastic boom in favor of the
movement. With both a State and County
Commissioner to direct the organizing of
a display it seems that Chatham ought to
put together her varied products and send
an exhibit that would be second to none
from any locality in the South.
Commissioner Harden is actively at
work and is devoting every possible mo
ment of his time outside of his judicial
duties to the work of arranging for the
display. „ ,
At the meeting of the Exchange on
Thursday, in the Morning
News on committee, composed
of Dr. William Duncan. S.Guekenheimer.
Es<j., and Capt. C. S. Ellis, was appointed
to conler with Major Bacon and Judge
Harden to arrange a plan of organization
and to make an estimate of the
amount of money required to successfully
promote it.
The committee has had several confer
ences with the Commissioners, and will
report to the General Citizens’ Committee
at a meeting at the Exchange at 5 o'clock
this afternoon, when a definite plan will
be adopted.
So tar as can be learned the procure
ment of subscriptions to a fund
will be an easy task. The people have
shown by their interest in the enterprise
that they intend to furnish the means re
quired to carrv it out. Savannah seldom
fails to contribute liberally when contri
butions are required to sustain her eom
mereiul and trade prestige. The exhibit
is uo charitv but severe business. It will
require continued and arduous labor to j
organize a display that will illustrate the
wealth of the city and county and wB
point out their resources.
The time for doing this work is short, and
every day will necessarily be made to
count in order that as complete an ex
hibit as possible may be secured.
Commissioner Harden desires that not
only the committees, but the citizens
generally, who are interested in the wel
fare of the county and an exposition of
her trade and commercial advantages, to
be present at the meeting this afternoon.
JOE S SPECIAL BCLLETII.
Wlml Ue War Department Hu to Sy
About the Weather.
The War Department issued on Friday
special bulletin of the weather during
June, giving some interesting data in re
gard to the meteorological conditions in
various parts of the country:
The meaiv temperature for the month
was below the average for the correspond
ing month in thb middle Atlantic States,
the Middle Pacific coast region and
throughout the southern part of the United
States, the districts of greatest departure
below the normal being Tennessee, the
eastern Gulf States, and middle Pacific
coast region, where the deficiency amount
ed U> 4 degrees. Over the northern por
tion* of the country the month was warmer
than usual, with the exception of the up
per Mississippi Valley, Oregou and Wash
ington Territory, where the mean temper
ature has not differed trom the normal.
In Montana, the northern portions of
Dakota and Minnesota, and in New Eng
land the mean temperatures for June have
averaged from 2 degrees to 3.$ above the
normal: in the Ohio valley and lower lake
region from 1.2 to 1.5 above, and in the
u rl .er lake region and Missouri valley
iron 0.6 to?. above.
The rainfall for June was decidedly be
low the average in the Ohio, upper Missis
sippi and Missouri valleys, in the
northern portions of Dakota and Minne
sota. in the lake region, and New Eng
land* the deficiencies in these districts
varvmg from 1 to slightly over 2 inches.
The rainfall was also below the average
in the Rio Grande valley, where the deti
ciencv amounted to about \ of an inch.
In the Middle Atlantic States the average
rainfall was slightly over Inches,
which Is the normal amount for June. On
the Pacific coast, in Tennessee, the South
Atlantic and Gulf States the rainfall ex
ceeded the Jane average; on the Pacific
coast it was about three times as great as
the average amount, which is slightly
less than U inch; and in the eastern Gulf
states and Tennessee it was about double
the average. On the 15th and 16th
damaging frosts occurred m New Eng
land and light frost* occurred on those
dates as far south as southern Sew
Jersey.

Savannah tans Sacking a llreere at tha
Beach and on tha SalU-The Reaorta
Crowded—Ctttzena Trying to Keep
Cool Coder a Horning Son.
The thermometer hovered among the
nineties in the shade yesterday, and the
sun pelted down on the pavement* and
the dry sand in the streets until It fairly
burned. The heat was sweltering, and
the few people who went out of doors
were compelled to beat a retreat
under cover from the scorching rays. The
churches were poorly attended. The
streets during the day were deserted by
all except those who were compelled to be
out or who were crowding to the steamer
and trains to the seaside and
the salts. The morning opened
clear, but a cool breeze was
blowing and mercury bad not gone above
79 degrees up to 7 o’clock. As the fore
noon advanced the heat grew intense ana
at 11 o'clock the thermometer registered sw.
The wind died out and the sun. unob
scured bv clouds, poured down his rays on
•he earth until everything seem scorched.
At 3 o’clock the mercury at the Signal
Station stood at 96, the highest it ha#
reached this vear. At 7 o’clock last night
It dropped to 90, and at 11 o’clock it was
statijtiarv at 95. Those who were out
had no doubt that it was the hottest day
of the season.
The mild beginning on Saturday pre
pared the people for the coming of the
high pressure term, and there was a
far the resorts and a day’s outing where
there was a chance for a breeze. The
steamer Svlvan Glen made two
trips to Tybee and carried an
immense throng of people. The
morning boat was loaded and the after
noon boat was packed. The tramway
cars were tested to their fullest capacity
to carrv the crowds. The beach was
lined and the surf was filled with bathers.
At the Ocean House there were applica
tions for over 400 bathing suits,
and at the Seaside Pavilion
the applications were equally as
large and beyond the capacity of the bath
houses. It was a good day to go some
where. and a good many went, but those
who went to Tybee were cooked through
bv the time they got there, and were anx
ious to cool otT in the surf. The return
ing boat at 8 o’clock was loaded down,
and did not reach the city until 10 o’clock,
when she landed her weary, perspiring
crowd. . „ ,
The City and Suburban trains to Mont
gomery and Isle of Hope were equally as
crowded as the boats to the beach. The
heat drove the people from the city. They
chose their place, but there was not much
choice. At both of those popular resorts
the heat was like a furnace. Whatever
breeze there was came from the west, and
afforded no relief. The people scattered
about in the pavilions and un
der the trees, and fanned
to get what breath of air
they could. Toe Bellevue Hotel at Mont
gomery was filled, and the piazzas were
lined with people trying to get a whiff of
salt air and whatever breeze they could.
It was the first real opening day of the
season, and those who availed themsehes
of its opportunity took the heat and
crowds good naturally, and made the
most of what they went for.
THE OCEAN RACE.
The ••Neon” and “Frances Elizabeth”
at Anchor at Tybee—The Race to Start
at Daylight—Big Money on Both
Boats.
The ocean race between the pilot boats
“Frances Elizabeth,’’ of Charleston, and
the “Neca.” of Savannah, will take place
to-day over the course which they sailed
on July 30, 1883. The purse
wagered by the owners of the respective
boats last year was |SOO, making a prize
of 11,000. On the race to-day SI,OOO a
side has been put up, making
$2,000 for which the race will be sailed.
Large amounts have also been staked by
outside parties and it is expected that at
least slo,o*o will change hands on the re
sult. Both vessels have been recently
overhauled in anticipation of the contest,
hence the interest is much greater than
last vear. The “Neca” is of greater ton
nage than hercompetitor, being registered
at 31. She is 61 leet long. 10 feet beam
and has a draught of 9 feet 7 inches.
The -Frances Elizabeth” is 61 feet 3 inches
in length over all, w7th a beam of IS feet
and a draught of S feet 8 Inches, and a
tonnage of 29. Last year she carried a
greater spread of canvass in proportion to
hersi/ethan the“Xeca.” She is managed
by a crew of eight men. Her owner, Capt.
Swan, will be in command to-day, though
Capt. James I. lgoe will act as her
sailing master. Capt. Igoe was a part
owner in the Charleston boat last vear,
but afterwards sold his interest to Capt.
Swan. The “Neca” has the reputation of
being a stiffer vessel than her competitor
in rough weather, and in the race to-day
will enjoy the advantage of an increased
spread of canvas compared to what she
carried last year, her masts having been
lengthened fully six feet. It i#
contended that the increased height
will also give her an advantage in a light
wind, which she could not have had last
year, and that she will to-day resume her
rank as the fastest boat of her class in
the Southern waters. Her commander is
Captain John H.Craig.one of the oldest and
most daring of -pilots, but whose intrepid
ity is tempered by experience. He bad
not selected his crew up to yester
day. and it was understood that
it " would not be made up
until last night, but would fhclude sev
eral who wished to participate in the
race. Capt. George Hussey was appointed
to represent the Savannah Yacht Club as
a judge on the “Frances Elizabeth,” and
left yesterday afternoon to meet the boat
at Tybee. G‘. B. Pritchard will represent
the club as a judge on the “Neca.” The
“Frances Elizabeth" arrived at Tvbee yes
terday afternoon at 4 o’clock, and in com
pany" with the “Neca" and the ‘‘Sprite,”
will sail to Martin’s Industry lightship.the
starting point of the race, sixteen miles
from Tybee, this morning. The “Sprite"
is commanded by Capt. Carles A. Mar
melstein, and will carry a number of in
vited guests over the eour-e in view of
the contesting boats. The distance to be
sailed is 108" miles—s 4 miles from Mar
tin's Industry lightship to Rattle
snake lightship and return. Among
sailors last night it was thought that the
wind this forenoon would be strong, prin
cipally from the southwest, and that the
race would be concluded within twenty
hours.

of prominent citizens, representing the
various professions and branches of busi

TEE JFI.T HSAVEfI.
Th* Event* of lb* Month In th* Starry
B—ln
The most interesting astronomical
events of July are not those that can be
seen. Chief among them is the Inferior
conjunction of Yenus, on the 11th, when
she passes from the eastern to the western
aide of the sun. The last conjunction of
Venn*. 594 days before this, was in De
cember. 1882. w’ben she passed across the
sun’s disk, and appeared a small black
spot on the flaming ball of fire.
This time the passes above the
sun; and she will not again cross
his disk for 120 years* The reason
for her apparently capricious behavior
is that her orbit is sUghtly inclined to the
ecliptic, or apparent path of the sun:
so that half the time she is on one side of
it. and half the time on the other side. It
is onlv when she is at the crossing of that
path at the same time that she is between
the sun and the earth, that a transit can
uccur. Venus sets now soon after the
sun, but Man still be discerned iq the fad
ing glow in the west just after the sun’s
disappearance. After the 11th she be
comes morning star, and remains on that
side of the sun for ten months.
Jup ter is still evening star, and will
lie throughout the month, though be is
fast following bis fair daughter, and sets
now about 9 o’clock. Saturn has already
crossed the line and heads the defection
of the evening star, which is epidemic,
for they all follow him soon, and the gor
geous spectacle of a “combined galaxy”
of planets, as a circus man might put it:
will no longer be visible in the evening.
There is little to make up to the star
gazer for their disappearance. Orion and
his forerunners and followers are gone,
and Arcturus is sole monarch of the mid
night Tault ot heaven.
The moon fulls on the Btb, and is new
again on the 22d. For the next two weeks
the’ evenings will be light, and the July
moon will doubtless see more human be
ings abroad enjoying her effulgence than
any of her predecessors for this year.
Southern Revolutionary Relica.
A recent visitor to the battlefields of
King's Mountain and the Cowpens in
South Carolina, says the Baltimore Day,
reports that the monuments placed there
many vears ago are ruined by relic hunt
ers. The facing of the Cowpens Monu
ment, “erected by the Washington Light
Infantry of Charleston in 1856,” is nearly
all gone; the ground has grown up to
forest, and soon there will be nothing to
mark the spot where one of the most
important events of our Revolutionary
historv took place. A monument
in honor of Morgan's victory has
been erected by Congress and the State
of South Carolina, assisted by other
Slates, at Spartanburg, 16 miles distant;
but this cannot Identify the place where
the battle occurred." On the King’s
Mountain battlefield there i6 a monument,
placed there at the time of the centennial
celebration, in October, 1880, which is
untouched by the spoilers as yet, and is
likely to be, as it is of rough granite at
the base and of such size as to repel the
inclination to chip off keepsake pieces,
but the Ferguson-Chronicle monument,
erected where Ferguson, the British com
mander, and Chronicle, Boyd and other
Americans killed in the battle, were
buried, is so far destroyed as to be
worthless as a monument. The inscrip
tions on neither side can be read, and the
face of one side is nearly all of it hacked off
and carried away, surely here is a little
patriotic work for the South Carolina His
torical Society or the Washington Light
Infantry, or both, to do In preserving for
all time these two interesting spots of- our
Revolutionary history. No doubt Con
gress would lend a helping hand, as it has
in so manv similar instances.
