The weather conditions whicht have existed the past ten daya over the transmiesltslppl prairie sttllce , causing destructive storms and heavy rains , have at last been broken up and the atmospheric conditions are fast as. miming their normal aspect. The barometric changes have been rapid , the pressure changing quickly from one extreme to the other and being very unequally distributed , the via'ent winds being caused by an effort on the part of the atmospaere to equalize the pressure. The pressure over the entire west was very near the normal yesterday matting , with indications that the violent disc rbancee are over for the present , The morning weather map showed that the rain area has moved eastward to the lake reclon , but the wind has Inoderated very timterlally , while the rainfall does not seem to be so heavy as that w hlch visited the western slates. In th a connection , it Ia interesting to study the figures concerning the rainfall in tilts section , as shown by the records at the Omaha station of the weather bureau. This slntlon was established txentyRve years ago when the weather bureau , then a branch of the signal service of the llrny , was first put in operation. A complete record of rainfall , along with other data , tAa been kept since that time. A table was made cf the rahu data for that entire peritsl , which siiows what is the nor- vial amount of rainfall which may be expected - pected at Ihh1 point on any given day. This factor was arrived at In tilts way : The total rainfall on the first day of January in each of the twenty-five years Sipco the estnbl sh mctt of ( tile station was added together and the average found , this conrtittlttnk the normal for that day of the year. The same process was pursued for Cacti day in the year , and it Is by this table that the observer computes the excess or deficiency etch day. By th s aeons it la found that Onmha had received , alnre the first of the current year , 5.C2 Inches of rain- fcll , inchid'ng incited snow , more than the normal table indlcates Tills excess dates from Starch 1 , whet the weather bureau year commences , the excess for the first two tnonlils of tide year being but .82 of an Inch , Tine total rainfall since the first of tlto calendar year , including Incited snow , has been 15.22 Inchca , which Is 5.G2 inches above the normal , as staled heretofore.

Numerous complaints are received by the hoard of Publle Works on account of the hlslllficiellt sewer facilities on Pierce street , between Sixtb and Seventh.
