Of the general character i the cliiimto of the state Qcnerul | 0rco says Till ! CI.IMATI5 13 COSTIXESTAU With the geographical center of the Unite States proper near Its limits , which moan tjmt It Is nearly ono thousnnd six humlrc miles from either of the Rreat oceans.reinovc from the direct climatic influences of the gu of Mexico , 800 miles to tlio south , and situate BOO inllns to the windward of the great Amor can lakes , It Is needless to say that the climal of Nebraska Is thoroiiRhly contlnontal , ] contradistinction to marino cllmnto this tcr implies for Nebraska winters of consldernh severity , summers of unusual warmth , rail fall in limited quantities , marked and suddc changes' of tcrpernturc , largo seasonal or dolly tcmporoturo ranpcs , dry , snlubriot atmosphere , with small percentage of cloud ness and largo percentage of sunshine. Fortunately the general configuration i the state is such that despite the sinn amount of aqueous vapor In the air , whlc condition facilitates rapid radiation in wlnti and a high dogrco of initiation in sumtrfc yet Nebraska finds itself favored with c ! matlc characteristics remarkably constai considering its remoteness from the ocean. TIIH AVKIUOE UA1NFALL. The rainfall is what may ho called acoldei tal , rather than periodical , that U , it nrlsi almost entirely from abnormal atmosphcr movements In connection , with the passage i low area storms across or near the state , t gethcr with the alternating anti-cyclone which , flowing In , as cold air from the Sacl ctchownn and Manitoba-country , bring tiboi sudden changes of tompcraturo fuvorablo i rainfall. The molstura precipitated ovi Nebraska comes almost entirely , clthc dlrcctlv. or Indirectly , from the Gu of Mexico. The warm souther winds , which prevail In conncctlc with the advancing low area storms , belt drawn northward laden with aqueous vupo deposit their vapor with more or loss fr qucncy in advance of storm centers as th < move toward the Atlantic. Following in tl rear of these depressions , the cold , dry n from the northward tends to precipitate sue moisture as is left in the rear quadrants i departing storms. Considering its Inland situation , far fro the Gulf of Mexico , the original source i rainfall of that section of the country , y Nebraska Is much more favored In this r spcct than is usually surmised. The annui rainfall of the stuto may bo placed : about twenty-four inches. The avorni annual amount for any entire stnto Is alwn ; misleading Information , and. in exception cases , the amounts which full over Clifford parts of the estate may vary enormously , a : for instance , in California from two Inches : the Colorado valley to eighty inches on th northwestern coast , and In the state of Wasl ington from seven inches in tho. interior ninety-four inches nt Neah boy. COMPAHIiD WITH EASTCIIN STATES. The figures show rain-falls in the caste states ranging from DO to 100 per cent aba those for the points indicated for Nobrasli but it would bo an error to surmlso that tl disadvantages against Nebraska are as o tonslvo and material as would seam cvidci from a cursory consideration of these fact Tlio great advantage which Nebraska ho in the distribution of rain-full throne out the year , particularly with row enoj to the months of April , Ma Juno and July , which may be called the cri ! wsl months , from the agricultural stand pot of staple crops grown In Nebraska. Tal the state as a whole , tbo percentage of nil fall In each of these four months close agrees , that for April Is about U per cent the en tire annual ram-fall ; f or May. 17 p cent : for Juno , 10 per cent , and for July , per cent ; or over DO per coat for the fo' ' months. In other words , threo-flfths of tl rain-full of the year occurs most opportune during the period when it is most beadle I to the growing crops. It appears that the average amount of ral full during the months of April to July , incl slvo , at Omaha amounts to 18.41 mchc Yanltton , 15.58 Inchon ; Valentino , 12 , inches ; North Platte , 11.40 Inches. Itisi tc.restlng to compare the rainfall during the four months with that which occurs ov what ore known as the eastern states. Sue comparisons show that the eastern part Nebraska has during these four months larger amount of ralnfull than the oastci states from Maine to Virginia , except pos : bly along the immediate coast , and thnttl western part of the state of Nebraska favored with an amount of ralnfi but slightly below the amounts record' ' In the eastern states. Taking Now York , t instance , the rain-fall at Albany from Ap : to July , Inclusive , amounts to 18.51 inche at Rochester. 11.81 inches , a comparison I vornblo to Nebraska. Jn like manner tl records show that the i-aln-fall in Peiins ; vanlu averages nt Plttsburg 14.2 inches ai nt Philadelphia 13.03 inches for the mont named. Those llpures show that the avera amounts for Pennsylvania arc less than the which obtain over the eastern half of N braska , and but slightly greater than the of the western half. IS THE Il.U.STAI.I , INCHEASIXOl The state , however , is more favored in tli rcsj > cct than some of these to the westwa and southwcstwiird. While this doviatl exhibits a liability to drought , yet , on tether other hand , it shows a constancy of rain cc illtions which is not usually credited to IS braska. It is still a mooted question as to whether or not the rainfall of Nebraska Is Increash From the amount and character of do at hand It can bo said tin contrary to nn Impression BOincwli prevalent , there is no increase In amount precipitation shown. Kccont Invcstlgntloi have brought out nn Important feature , vli that the rainfall has been better dlstrlbut throughout the year , ns shown by anincrcii f the number of r.ilny days , and that t breaking up of the hard 'pralrlo land h checked evaporation and enabled the rulufi to penetrate tno earth and thus increase : vuluo to grdwing crops. If this characteristic brought out fn later records is to DO accented as a fact , su increase may bo accounted for as resultl from Increased cultivation , breaking up the soil , and , not the least , perhaps , from t fact that the planting of trees hu * been greatly stimulated by the observance of J bor day , which the people of Nebraska iuai united and have been most faithful In tna talnlng. It is noteworthy that the increo in frequency of rainy days has been i served in these portions of the state whi tbo surfuco of the country bos undergone 1 greatest transformation through the labors the tanner. tanner.NEBRASKA'S CLOUDLESS SKT.

AUDIT TOIlXAKOr.S , In the minds of many persons the whole trans-MIislHslppl region Is considered to hi peculiarly liable to violent atmospheric dl * ttirbancos. known under the nnmo of tor nndocs , It it dinicult to pass with gren dctlnltcncas upon the frequency of thesi phenomena , slnco thoi-o Beams nn Inhcrcn tendency in mankind to exaggerate the 1m mrtance or violence of local phenomena , nm bus to class an n tornado thut which Is enl ; i severe thunder or hull storm. Wlillo un oubtedly the winds nro violent In man ; bunder and hall storms which nro not tor nndoos , yet these very high winds nro not ii ho shape of violent whirlwinds with cur rente more nearly vertical than horizontal and consequently do not work the greater dc truction and Injuay wiilch- result from tor nndocs , The Btato of Nebraska Is rarely vlsltod bj ornadocs , and when they hnvooccureed the ; invo been almost invariably contlncd to thi extreme eastern portion of the slate , nloni ho Missouri river. Destructive tornodoe.- iavo very rarely vlsltod the state , and It i : within bounds to sav that suchviolcnt meter olcglcal phenomena occur BO Infrequently over such limited sections of country ns t make them n matter of minor importance As far as Nebraska Is concerned they may b pronounced less destructive to.llfo and prc ) erty than thunder storms. This Immunity if Nebraska from tornadoes occur : jccause , first , a considorabla par > f tno ntiito U rarely sub ccted to meteorological conditions fivorabl 'or such storms , which demand u plontcoti supply of aqueous vapor and sharp and dc elded contrasts of temperatures , dew point nnd barometric pressures ; second , and per taps n more satisfactory rooson , In the local ty of the stnto with reference to the passng if low area storms across thu United States I'ho researches nnd compilations of Lieutcr nnt Finloy of the signal corps and others iavo clearly shown that tornadoes do no occur in the immediate vicinity of the ccntc of oyclonlu storms. They bear , however , definite and tolerably llxcd relation to tli storm center , but ttioy occur at a distance c several hundred miles to the southeast c such center ; consequently tlio areas of lei irossuro , in connection with which thoa violent storms occur , nro situated to th northwest of the tornado region. Fortunatol 'or Nebraska , the greater part of the stat Inds itself in tlio westerly quadrants of loire > ro storms , and so It almost entirely escape .ho devastating effects of those violent whirl winds. Ono very Important point in the report 1 .ho distinction it draws between tbo rcllabl rain-fall in various sections of the state. 1 shows that the greatest precipitation Is i the southeastern portion , the next greatest i .ho tniddlo nnd northern portions , and th east in the southwestern nnd western po : Jons.

After the usual opening services Hov. Jncoby addressed the pastor of the church , clioollng as Ills text II , Timothy , lv. , 1-5 , Paul's chnrgo to Timothy , the first bishop of the church of Pphcsus. The speaker said the text gave a clear Idea of Paul's conception of the importance of the church work. The ministerial office , 'ho snld , towers above all others ns do divine things nbovo things temporal. It was the purpose of the ofllco to point out the dlvlno way nnd lead the people along It. With this high ideal Paul had delivered his charges to Timothy. The attention of the now pastor was called to this charge and ho was ndviscd to study It veil nnd follow Its teachings. A prominent feature of this charge , the peakcr snld , was the direction to preach the ford , preach it to nil moti nt nil times. Oed ad given the ministerial ofllco special proml * cncc and also the Injunction to preach the vord , therefore , the thing of greatest im- Kmanee was to spread tliu gospel. To preach ncant also to tench , therefore the duty of the mstpr was to teach the word. The speaker drew many examples from the crlpturcs of ttio preachers of old us showing ho proper course to be pursued in carrying out the duties of the ofllco. Ho then wanted his brother of the many ifllcultlos to bo encountered. Human na- uro had not changed slnco Paul warned Timothy that the people woula 'grow tired of religion , hcn'eo tno necessity of 'continued ffort. The minister of God had the physical ns .veil as the spiritual we f uro of the people in ais charge and they heeded his prayers to sustain them. The pastor wua reminded thit God had set apart ouo day for the preaching of the gospel , out ho had also set apart six days for visiting the stole and destitute. The speaker then dwelt brietly oh' the re- ponslblllty of the pastor. His temporal re- ponslblllty was great , but his responsibility 'or the souls of the people under his charge ivas far greater. Ho would probably ilnd many members of Ul.i congregation who would need spiritual consolation and ho was directed to afford them all the assistance they required , with the certainty that God would ecelvo him ns a faithful steward. Kev. J. A. Clutz then addressed the coiv grciration ou their duties toward the pastor , 'nking ns his text , Nchomlah iv , 0. The text related the building of the wall .bout Jerusalem by a man called ef God , Tlio pastor of the church was also called of Oed , und the speaker said that ns the builder would bnv < been helpless without the assistance of the people , so would the pastor bo helpless with out thu co-operation of the congregation. He referred briefly to what was meant bj , uccoss in church work. It was usually un derstood to mean ability to draw a crowd , bin this was a false Idea. Again it was taken t < mean that the churcn had plenty of money 11 the treasury to pay all expenses. This wn ; also a wrong Idea. Success , ho said , was tht accomplishment of the end of ouu's being and a church Is only successful as it nccom pllshes the end of its being the salvation o : souls. Tbo congregation was reminded that I must not leave everything to the pastor Each member of the church was responsibly for some work according to his ability , ani would have to answer accordingly. The speaker advised that all organization : and societies In the church ba un dor the dl rection of the pastor , in order to avoid con fusion and the Interference of ono with thi other. In order to bo successful all mus1 work together nnd under the direction of on < guiding hand. The congregation was enjoined to keep uj n hopeful spirit nnd speak encouragingly o the church and its work and show a.hopcfu spirit which would Induce others to bcconn members. Following the delivery of these charges Rov. Jncoby Installed the 'now ' pastor , whi then made the usual announcements and con eluded the services. /I XXO VXCEMEXT8 , This evening the engagement of Qllmoro'i great spectacle , "Tho Twelve Temptations , " will open a three nights engagement at tin Boyd.

A fair slr.od nudlcncovns at the Boyd yes tcrdny afternoon to hear the story of the con dition of the unfortunnto farmers in the west ern part of the state. Mayor dishing presided , and , nftcr calling the meeting to order , said : "It U painful to think that relief meetings must ba held , but they must , nnd there must bo something more thim simply meetings. Wo know that la our own atuto there nro many persons who nro In need of fuel , provisions nnd cloth ing. Omahn has always had the reputation of being ono of the most charitable of cities , unrt there Is no reason whv slio should not nt this time eoino nobly to the front and help sustain the tmfortunnto cltlions of the stato. " Governor Tlinyer said ! "I regret nuiru than you ran Imnglno that I am called upon to appear before you nnd ask nld for twelve or ilftcen of the counties in the western part of the stato. In many of the counties the psoplo have nothing ou which to subsist. It.was my duty to take bold of tlio mutter because , as governor of the stuto of Nebraska , appeals anne to mo from the peonlo of the counties where crops failed ou account of the lack of rain and the visitations of the hot winds. During the post three wccljs these appeals have beconio more numerous , nil telling the sumo tiilo , and lean hardly trust myself to speak upon this subject. They wrlto to uio saying , 'Can you help us I1 "In order to ascertain the amount of help required , I selected Dr. Martin and Mr. J. if. Hartley of Lincoln to visit these counties. The gentlemen went and found that what Is written Is truo. These farmers who are so nflllctcd nro honest , Industrious People , but they cannot help themselves. Tlio question ' now Is , will yo'u help ttioni , or will you let them dlo of hunger and cold I "Slnco I was In Omaha last Thursday night I have received many lcttcrsshowlngn worse state of nffulrs than I sui > | > osed could exist. I Know Ui at thcro are thousands of people in the western part ot tlio state who uro suffer ing today for food , fuel and clothing. " The governor then read a number of letters from residents of the nfllictod sections , showIng - Ing that they have been left do.stituto and without the mans of support. Continuing , tbo governor said : "It is on account of such appeals as nro made In these letters that I appear before you. To the business men I sny , what you giro today you will reap back in two years , with ton and twenty/old / added. A storm now menus much. Let a blizzard como and ton. twenty , yes , scores of these people will pcilsh. I do ask the people of Omaha to give liberally , for Just as sure ns cold weather sots In the news will go abroad that people In Ne braska have frozen aud starved to death. Wo cannot kocp this from the public , and I nm of the opinion that it Is better that the facts should now bo published than to wait until It Is necessary to send abroad the names that the people of Ne braska have frozen to death tn their own homes. "Tbo county commissioners of the various counties have been instructed to distribute the supplies to the needy and I have tssued most stringent orders that no man who is nblo to support himself shall have any of these supplies. In addition to this 1 have In structed ttio distributing ofllccrs to kocp nn accurate account of every pound of coal and flour sent out. " Dr. Martin of tbo Kearney industrial school , who has traveled over thodlslressetl country , said : "Mr. M lyor and Citizens of Nebraska I am not hero to make a speech , but to give you some facts. For two weeks I was among the people , visitlnpsovon counties , to see Just the exact condition of the scitlcrs. There nro gentlemen hero who know that the soil of these counties Is as fertile as can bo found anywhere in the state , but this year no corn , wheat , oats , potatoes or grass grow. It was not on account of lock ot industry , but the hot winds came and in a few days the prairies were as brown nnd bare as a floor. Those peonlo have no crops to sell and noth ing ta eat but com bread , nnd very llttlo of that. They are now on our bauds and we have them to feed and keep warm during the next nine months. A cnroful estimate shows that at least eight thousand people are in this condition. "Wo do' not need to sea tier the news that Nebraska Is in need , for it is not. There nro a few counties , but the state is ono of the richest in the union and she can take care of hero needy ones. " Thomas Kllpatrick urged upon the meeting the Importance of speedy action. Ho also stated that ten carloads ol coal nnd 5,000 pounds of clothing had already been shipped to the residents of twelve counties. M. V. Gnnnoii said ; "In my younger days my eyes looked upon many scenes such as Governor Tnayor and Dr. Martin portrayed. As I listened I had all I could do to keep back the tears. Tnis is a time for writing bank drafts , and not poems ; this ia a tlmo when tbo people of Omaha should stretch out their hands. If they do not , nnd they let their brothers die upon thoAvestern plains , they nro not worthy of being called American citizens I trust that Omaha will demonstrate to the world that she will do ns much , proportionately , as nny people In the union. It will then be said that Omaha did her duty nobly. I bogof you , I demand of you that you come forward nnd help the people ) of western Nebraska. Too much credit cauuot L > o given to tlio grand old man who , ns your chlof executive , told you of toe condition of these peoplo. " Kov. Dr. Duryoa said : "After looking over this audience I might bo induced to believe that the Omaha census was padded. I suppose this small house is positively caused by the fact that each man thought his neighbor would bo hero and wanted to prevent crowding. If you could gel face to face with these suffer ing /armors in the western part of the state you would give freely. Uo home and sit down , think of the little god hut without a flro to warm its occupants , the empty cup board without oven a crust. Make this picture and then gaze at your own homo , fin ished lu oak and mahogany. Let the ruin como to you. 'you must give.1 Shall a score or a hundred people die of huuner and cold in Nebraska while our larders and coal bins are full ? You never go to a reception until most ol the decent people are ready to go home , you never como to church until the sermon is nearly finished , but I will fool you some time , for I am going to preach my sermon and hnvo the rest of the sorviecs afterwards. But I want to. toll you that you must help the farmers of the wust , and now Is the time.
