Oregon Fair, except showers and thunder storms southwest portion; cooler - southwest and not so warm northwest portion; continued warm eaat portion; south to west winds. So far aa caa bo determined, owing to a lack of standard thermometer, and a weather bureau, Monday waa the warmest day In the history of Ore gon City. The thermometer on Main atreet ranged anywhere from 102 to 104 in the shade In the afternoon. At tho home of C C. Babcock. on the hill, where the truest test waa taken for that section, the temperature waa Just an even 100. During the recent warm spell and on Sunday when' It seemed that spon taneous combustion would soon ensue. If there were not Immediate relief, the mercury registered -98 degrees In the ahade. A Morning taterpiise re porter looked up all the data obtain able last night, and there seems to be no 'question as to, yesterday having been the hottest dajr ever experienced in this city. Chaftles McCarver, of Thirteenth and Washington street, who la probably to best Informed msn In tho city In (meteorology, said that he was confident It waa the warm- . est day ever experienced In the down town section of thdj city. He said, however, that about ten yeare ago there waa for a abor; time a slightly higher reading on the hill. Mercury Keep Climbing. ' . The mercury registered 68 degrees at 5 o clock In the morning and kept climbing until In" the afternoon when It registered at various places from 100 to 105. The reading at 7 o'clock In the morning waa 70; at 8 o'clock 73; at 9 o'clock 76; at 10 o'clock 80; at 11 o'clock 85; at 12 o'clock 89; at 1 o'clock 94; at 2 o'clock 97; at 3 o'clock 98; at 3:30 o'clock 100; at 4 o'clock 102 or 105, acordlng to the dif ferent exposures of the various ther mometers. . The mercury had dropped to 73 at midnight. The thermometer In the downtown -section which probaby registered the most accurate yesterday, waa that -of E. P. Elliott 4k Son, at the corner of Seventh and Main streets. This thermometer waa virtually In the shade all day and, In the afternoon when the highest temperature 102 degrees waa registered. Main atreet ' had been sprinkled at the corner ana a cool draught was coming up from the basement ateps at the head 'of ; which the thermometer u suspended. . Mercury on Hill 105. ' The mercury In the rear of the Gadke plumbing shop on Main street registered 102 In the shade at 4 -o'clock In the afternoon and Mrs. Wal ter Bonner's thermometer, at her home In Kansas City, showed 105 at the same time. All these thermome ters were In tho shade at the time the highest record were taken, and It Is safe to Bay that a standard ther mometer, under conditions such aa those found at the vartoua weather bureau would have recorded more than 100 degrees. At Msoe Lane several thermome ters registered 116 degrees In the snn.
