The chief of the weather bureau furnishes the following data, compiled from the record of observations for the month of July taken at this station during a period of twenty-one years, It is believed that the facts thus set forth will Prove of interest to the public, as well as the special student, showing as they do the average and ex§reme conditions of the more important meteorological elements and the range within which such variations may be expected to keep during any corresponding month, ‘Temperature—Mecan or normal temperature, 77.1°. ‘The warmest July was that of 1876, with an average of 81.4°. The coldest July was that of 1891, with an avorage of 72°. ‘The highest temperature during any July was 108°, on 18:h, 1837, The lowest temperature during any July was 53°, on 20th and 22d, 1890.

Assuzaing this to have been the mischief con- | templated, the present case will illustrate the mauner tn which it is remedied by the act of July 2, 1884, which is the law now in force. ‘That act declares (section 1) that every build- ing hereafter erected or repaired by the owner | ‘or his egent in the District of Columbia, and the lot or lots of ground of the owner upon which the same is being erected or repaired, sball be subject toa Henin favor of the contr tor, subcontractor, material man, journes- man and laborer, respectively, "for the Peymezt for ‘work and’ materials | contracted for or furnished for or about the | 1% erection, construction or repairing of such | {0 [od whet “building, and also for any en; tne, machinery or othe thing placed in said or con- nected the: svad te boa: Suteds Peotiaed that the person claiming the len shall file the notice prescribed in the second section of this ‘ct: Provided, further, that the said licn shall | not exceed or be enforced for a greater sum than the amount of the original contract for the erection or repair of said building or buildings. | By the seoond section the conjractor or sub- contractor,&¢., may file the notice of lien at any time during the construction or within three | months after the completion of the building.
