Eight In Family Shot Dead By Man Insane With Heat 75 Are Dead in East From Terrific and Phenomenal Heat Wave; Worst Country Has Ever Experienced. HAMILTON, Ohio, June 4. Of all the cities in the grip of the great heat wave, the worse curse of the atmospheric phenomenon fell upon Hamilton, where a heat-maddened man killed eight members of his family. Floyd Russell, 42 years old, had been brooding because the major part of the Russell family was about to be taken away from him. Heat intensified his fear of the separation, and he became insane, shooting with two pistols, his mother, 'brother, sister-in-law and five nephews and nieces. ' Mrs. Emma Russell, the sister-.

Scores of schools closed down In various cities; crops were reported In danger of burning up in many rural districts and the fear of disastrous forest fires was felt in the heavily wooded districts of Michigan and Minnesota. A few mills closed in New England. Every previous record for June was broken In New York when the temperature went to 94 degrees. Five deaths were reported Thurs day in the metropolitan district, hand shooting at grandma and bringing the total there to 12 The brother. "I screamed nnd rnn. So did sistor Julia and Grace.

Plans have been completed for sending the dirigible Shenandoah In search of Amundsen among the Ice floes and frozen deserts of the arctic, should the navy decide upon that venture. Commander Zachary LansdoWne, of Shenandoab, recently prepared plans to govern the dirigible's part In the MacMillan-Navy expedition set tor next month it she should be called out. Thursday the skipper of the Shenandoah sent to Secretary of the Navy Wilbur, a supplemen tary plan which showed how he could operate in quest of the Nor weglon explorer. Next week the Shenandoah will be refilled with helium at Lake hurst, N. J., if a search for Amund sen Is ordered, the mooring ship Patoka will proceed ahead to Spitsbergen, a journey of 17 days, where Amundsen established - his base. Tne, Shenandoah would fol low, making . the voyage in two jumps, landing at Pullman, Eng., after a 3,059 mile non-stop trans altnatlc flight, and then making the remaining leg of 1,539 miles to Spitzbergen. Awaiting Norway Whether the navy will send the Shenandoah on this expedition de pends upon the wish of the Nor weglon government and whether the venture could be undertaken with out conflicting with tho MacMll lan expedition. It has not been announced that the Shenandoah would f accompany MacMlllan, but It Is probable that she will be held in readiness either at Lakehurst, or be moved up on the Maine coast at Wiscassct to stand by. Commander Lansdowne believes the Amundsen searching expedi tion Is practicable. Members of tho crew are ready to volunteer. But It Is denied Lansdowne has recom mended the search to be undertak en. Meanwhile the state department has denied receiving a note from the Canadian government regarding title to the polar continent which MacMlllan seeks to find. Recent ly the Canadian minister of inter ior In a speech Indicated Canada regarded all land up to the pole as being-under her Jurisdiction. But no attempt has been made to establish this claim by correspond ence with the United States. It Is assumed here that should MacMll lan discover a new polar continent under the arctic Ice, -the United States would claim the land by right of discovery. M. L. Ryckman, superintendent of fish hatcheries for Oregon, a visitor of Klamath's lakes and rivers during the past week, stated to officers of the local Sportsmen's associa tion, who met with him informally last night, that ,his obser vations on this trip had resulted in determining a policy of making Upper Klamath lake the trout producing center of Oregon for eastern brook and rainbow trout. Mr. Ryckman's plan is to recommend that small isolated egg-taking stations in various parts of the state be abandoned and that the scope of this work be multiplied many times here. In that way the work would be centralized, costs very materially reducedand we could produce millions upon mil lions of baby trout here where ideal highways all. around the lake connected up with through-line railroad' transportation would make the distribution of the trout fry consigned, to any trout ' water in the state a simple and most workable proposition. The waters of Upper Klamath are idea! fur these species o! bl fighting trout, the manner in which they thrive tbere has been proven, it Is no experiment. Next to Dla. . mond like which holds world's hon or for trout propagation, .Upper Klamath Is In a class pretty much to Itself. - , ., New Hatcheries . ', Tbe hatchery which takes spawn ing trout -from' Upper Klamath at, the present time Ib located on Crooked creek a short distance north of Klamath Agency. Under Mr. Ryckman's plan this hatcbery ' would be increased to. many times ' its present capacity and others built on equally good streams that are Inlets of the lake. The Crook ed creek hatchery now has a big batch of 500,000 fingerling Loch Leven trout which It la planned to plant at once In Klamath and Lake county waters. ... Mr. Ryckman made a trip , into Diamond lake Wednesday with Mar lon Barnes, 'local state fish and game deputy warden. Conditions at Diamond lake were never better, tho superintendent reports. The egg taking plant there has taken Klamath Students To Graduate From Oregon University UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eu gene. June 4.
