Nearly Two Inches of Rain.
The rainfall last night was the
heaviest for many months past, the
total as reported by Observer
Piercy being one and eighty-four
one hutidrcth inches. The rain had
the appearance of being general
over the countv and iir value to
growing crops and the raugcB can
scarcely be estimated.
The spring season certainly
starts out favorably for the farmer,
let us hope that it will continue so
throughout the season.
Observer Piercy, of the local
weather bureau, contributes the
following: The rainfall of Sunday
night was .12 of an inch and ol
Monday night 1.84 inches, making
a total of 1.96 inches tor a period
of 21 hourB. With the exception of
a rainfall of 2 58 inches on May 23d
and 24th, 1881, the rainlall of Sun
day and Monday nights is the
heaviest in a record ol twenty-eight
years. The total rainfall for the
month ol May thus fir is 2 3f
inches The average is 2 55 inches.
The total rainfall for May, 1901,
was 1 83 niche, and the heaviest
tor any twenty-four hours was 1.24
inches.
Some little excitement was cans.
cd about eleven o'clock but night
by the discovery of lUmen in the
rear ol the Model Clothing House.
The root of the building leaked and
the water dripping on the electric
light wires running along the ceil
ing caused a circuit wiih the tin
roof, causing the wires to emit
quite a blaze. lAirtuualtly thie
condition was discovered by an em
ploye of the electric light company
who broke down the back door aM '
cntcriug the building reinndLd the
matter before any damage ensued.
During the storm laBt night the
air was heavily charged with elec
tricity, and as a result two trans
formers on the electric light line on
the the north side were burned out.
The tl i Hi cully was soon remedied.
The telephone line al-o Buffered
Hcycrcly, the luses in sixty-two
telephones burning out and render
ing the 'phones useless until new
fuses were put in. Manager Size-
more of the telephone company
says it was the greatest electrical
storm encountered since the tele
phone line has been in operation.
