With tho condition of Nebraska's wheat crop at VI per cent on May 1. the hlshest of any state In the union, according: to the government crop report. It la believed that owing to the heavy rains 'that have fallen'slnce; the additional S pair 'cent has been gained-and that-at thltf jtitn'e t Is 100 per oeriC or perfect. The rain Thursday and Thursday night that was general over Nebraska, rail road and grain men say, practically as sures the crop, which they say will be the best and largest ever harvested In the Btate. Thursday, everywhere from .central Colorado and Wyoming, east as far as central Iowa, with the exception of a few Isolated areas, there was a slow and drizzling rain. During the night the rain continued, the amount of precipitation In creasing, and every place reporting shows a continuation. Reports received at the railroad offices and sent from the respective stations at ft oclock, indicated a heavy downpour all fclght, generally soaking 'Into the ground. South rintte Soaked. The South Platte country of the Bur lington noted the heaviest rainfall, not tonly of the season, tout the heaviest In fears. Nearly all the way from McCook, east to Hastings, a distance of 130 miles, jthere was from two to three Inches of rain during the night, with about the same quantity over tho 8t Francis branch Srom Orleans, Neb., 100 miles or more 'tiown Into Kansas. Over the area where the rain reached almost the proportions of a cloud burst, low lands were flooded and in the fields along the railroad lines, the water stood In lakes. However, little damage was jdone to the railroad, other than to soften the grades,' making It necessary for , trains to proceed with unusual caution. The Burlington's report for the night iphows from one-fourth to one Inch of rain over the entire Omaha division, with heavy rains along the river from Brown Vllle In the extreme southeast corner to 61oux City on the north. From Lincoln across tho country to Grand Island there was from one-half to one and one-half Inches; on the Alliance division the pre cipitation was from one-half to one and one-fourth Inches, with the heaviest rain Call through the sandhills, north and northwest of Ravenna. The Wymore division that constitutes one of the great "winter wheat' areas of the state, got from one-half to one Inch, it coming on top of a rainfall of one Inch early In the week. Three Inches at Kearney. Along ' the Vnlon Pacific there was ' from one to three Inches of rain all the way from Kearney to Sidney, a distance of 2S miles, with practically tho same amount of precipitation over the branches north and sotuh of the main line. From Omaha to Kearney, the rainfall aver aged around an Inch and better. ' The Northwestern report showed from one-half to an Inch of rain from Omaha to Norfolk and over the lines to the southwesf. From Norfolk, west and out as far as Chadron, there was a heavy downpour all night, numerous stations reporting from one to two Inches and till raining. Over' on the Bonesteel and Winner branches In South Dakota the rain started Thursday afternoon and continued all night, aggregating one and one-half to two and one-halt Inches, thoroughly soaking the ground. Railroad men lay that, taking the state of Nebraska as a whole, the rain was the heaviest In years and that generally the crop would continue to Improve In the event there should, not be another drop of moisture during the month. Spring Makes This Cop's Fancy Turn to the Muse Women's tailored suits at a clear sav ing of 10 to fZO. For more details see adv. page 9. Julius Orkln Suit and Cloak House, 1510 Douglas Transplanted by the warm sunshine and fresh breezes of yesterday, from the commonplace and material walking of a "beat," Policeman Sam Morris found him self gamboling In Hlyslan pastures whoro music and prose Is eternal; where prying sergeants are unknown; where the home team always wins, and where all one must do to keep In good standing Is to quaff ale from Individual glasses piped to a municipal brewery. Sam was transported only In mind; when one considers that he Is five feet high and eight thick the futility of his being transported In the flesh Is obvious. Ills thoughts were far from sordid earthly things yesterday. His esthetic soul was uppermost and ho wooed the nlno Muse sisters with all the ardor of a back-porch policeman of many years' ex perience. The Muse girls capitulated, nor did they care when he made "au fait" rhyme with "fast freight." When he came to headquarters he hod dozens of gems, the Hit and rythm of which would have made Walt Mason, Hank, or any or tne other big leaguers hang their heads. Here Is one: Policemen are tho peculiar fish, Walking beats with Just the wish That some live guy with bundles of kale Would "pip" for sundry mugs of ale. WeM rather sleep than walk our beats But If we did there'd be no eats. But wo should worry and lose an eye For we Vont have to eat when we die. For when we croak our shade's will rise; We'll all be sergeants In the skies. Up In cop-heaven there Is no chief E'en tho' Dunn gets In by skin o' teeth. Sam's' second poem Is dedicated to - a follower of Bacchus. The title Is "Cubist Ode to a Souse." Avauntl thou naughty besotted beastt Thoiis't drunk enough to make a feast Be on thy way or I'll throw thee In And the Judgc'll soak thee costs and ten. Another of his compositions Is dedicated to himself, but Its tone la so shelf abasing that Tho Bee fears to detract from' his fame by publishing it. Captain Michael Dempsey, himself an artist In his own peculiar line. In com menting on Morris' remarkable gift to the literary world said: "Morris and his 400 pounds, makes six of our best policemen, and with this newly discovered talent, I think he Is entitled to a place In the Holl of Fame." (Printer; Don't make this "shame.") Other friends of the bard of the harness bulU say that the meter of his poetry Is fully as good as the meter furnished by the Water board, besides being slower and cheaper. Morris was born In England. When but a lad In school, he recited ono of his poems and the teacher Immediately gave him a brief, but effectual vacation. Morris' friends say that had the teacher but extended the vacation a bit longer, his fame might have come sooner and Kept him In England, and they bewail the fact. B. H. S. Howell WiU Now ' Use Lime to Help Settle City Water Water Commissioner Howell. win Sarin experimenting with a new purifying agent at the water plant Saturday. Alum has been UBfcd to clear tho water.
