Tho weather forecaster has troubles of his
own. For weeks ho will forecast tho
weather for Omaha and vicinity with exact
ness and tho pcoplo will take his efforts as
a matter of course, and will hardly reallzo
that ho Is nt work, but let theory and fact
vary In tho least and there is Immediate com
plaint that something la wrong In the
Vioathor bureau.
This remark Is occasioned by tho ex
perience 1 of Forecaster Welsh In tho last
four days. Wednesday morning the dally
bulletin stated that Omaha was to havo
rain, but the sun shone with unabated
brilliancy. People remarked that tho llttlo
cards were entitled to another guess.
Thursday morning tho card snld rain again,
but silll tho sun bIiouo on. On Friday, when
thq ard called for rain, tho rays of tho
sun boomed to tako satnnlc delight In getting

predicament. j
A peculiar condition existed over tho i
country last week. An area of high
barometer had passed over tho country to
tho southeast, followed by a low, bringing
with It rain and snow from tho west as far
cast as Cheyenno and l'ueblo. By all of the
rules of the weather bureau that high should
havo burled Ittclf In the Atlantic ocean and
permitted the raln-boarlng low to spread
Itself over tho west, but Instead of that It
stopped somewhere down In Tennessee or
Georgia and acted ns though It had taken
up Its summer quarters down there. The
low, which followed It, was a timid little
creature, aril would not force Its company
tipon Its predecessor, but started south on n
little trip until tho high had decided to get
off tho earth. It deposited snow nt Santa !
Fe and rain all over tho south and west, '
gavo a traco of rain to Unjoin and a larger
quantity to Valentine, but still rcfuscJ to
bring rain to tho Missouri river north of
Kansas City. Friday night tho low reachel
Omaha, and tho self-rcglsterlng barometer
at tho weather olllco showed yesterday 1
that wo had a hunderstonm In Omaha with
out a thunderclap or a drop of rain; In other
i words tho record Indicated tho existence of
all conditions found during a thunderstorm
except tho water.
"If tho present conditions continue wo
shall keep on promising rain, though none
should fall till the Fourth of July." said
Forecaster Wolsb. "There Is nothing else
that wo can say, for this feature pro
dominates and rain has fallen all around us."
I Tho Washington ofllco nnd all of tho
observers In tho territory have forecasted
rain for this section, and, therefore, It can
bo seen that according to tho rules the
Omaha olllco Is correct, and tho only thing
that is wrong Is that recusant rain which
has not come.

William II. Hurnhnm of Orange, Cab,
president of the United States Supply enm-
pany of this city yesterday concluded negoti
ations which havo been quietly pending for
several weeks leaking to tho purchase of
tho vacant property at tho southwest corner
, of Ninth and Farnam streets, with a view
of erecting thereon another large warehouse
I building. The salo Is tho first of Impor-
tance to bo made this year In the wholesale
i district nnd wns negotiated by Real Kstnto
1 Agent C. U. Denncy on a cash basU, tho
consideration being $20,000; David Cole, tho
oyster man, convoying a two-thirds, and tho
Omaha Savings bank a one-third Interest In
tho property In Question.
John 11. Hnhm, vice president nnd gcncrnl
mannser of the United States Supply com
pany, who has Just returned from n trip to
. California, says It Is tho purposo of Mr.
Ilurnham to erect on his purchase a sub
' stnutlnl warehouso bulldtug for the use of
his company. It will be from six to eight
i stories high, constructed of brick, stone nnd
stocl and fitted up with all the conveniences
and appliances that go to muko up a twen
tieth century wholesale building, such as
steam heat, electric light, electric elevators,
automatic lire micnchlnc apparatus, auto-
I mntlc hatchways for stairs and elevators,
etc. The doublo track railway switch re
cently placed In tho alley between Farnam
and Harney streets will furnish amplo track
age facllltlcH. iMr. Hnhm says they have se
lected what thoy regard as tho best loca
tion In Omaha for a wholcsalo establishment,
affording as It does easy access to the
depots, hotels'nud city trade, nnd what Is of
vast Importnnco to a firm carrying so heavy
a stock of goods, a solid foundation for their
bulldlm;, is assured.
Following so closely upon tho purchase of
tho property at Tenth and Farnam by tho
Martin Kingman company, and at Ninth and
Unrncy by tho Leo-dlass-Andreesen Hard
ware company, both of which firms aro now
erecting mammoth warehouses there, this
transaction means much for that Immediate
vlclnliy n a wholesalo center. Tho firm
which thus adds additional testimony to
Omaha's prestige as a wholesale center has
been doing business In Omaha for fifteen
years.

to provide that Hon. Irving F. Baxter be
elocted chairman of tho delegation to the
congressional convention.
Judge linker said that If tho selection of
Mr. Greene ns chairman of both conventions
was In accordance with any pro-arranged
plan and that It waB necessary In carrying
nut tbat plan, that ho bo chairman of tho
delegation to both conventions, then ho was
for It, but If tho naming of n chairman for
tho congressional convention was simply
tho bestowal of an honor, he snw no reason
why It Bhould not bo given to Mr. Baxter.
Hon. John L. Webster said he did not un
dorstnnd that tho original plan contem
plated that Mr. Grecno Bhould bo chairman
of tho congressional convention, for at tho
tlmo of tho agreement, by reason of which
ho was named as chalrmnn of the stato del
egation, it was not known that tho stnto del
egation would bo tho delegation to tho con
gressional convention. Ho saw no reason
why 'Mr. llaxtcr should not bo honored with

Tho Walters' union has udoptcd n novel

Is omploylng nonunion labor. Some weeks

to go Into the restaurant and demand a meal.
The manager of tho restaurant took In tho
