alcohol." With about half of the bot
tle consumed, McMullen became pos

and a desire to lick a policeman. Pa

Black Friday seemed intent for a
while today of stirring up a "hot
time" in the old town of The Dalles.
Starting as noon as the dew had
dried, the mercury steadily climbed
in the recording thermometer at
the chamber of commerce until it
had reached the high mark of 81
degrees.
This Is the highest mark recorded
this year, making Friday, tho 13th,
dreaded throughout tho ages as n
day of bad luck and ill omen, a
"record breaker." The hottest pre
vious day this year was May 11,
when the mercury rested on the 75
degree mark at mid-day.
Asido from a few wilted collars
and a general rush on the soda par
lors, no serious damage is report
ed as resulting from heat.
