OMAHA WEATHER
PROPHET FOR 32
YEARS RESIGNS
M. V. Robins, First Assistant,
.To Have Charge of Sta
tion Temporarily.
After serving 47 years in the ca
pacity of weather man for the gov
ernment, 32 of the 47 being spent as
Omaha's weather prophet, Col.
Lucids A. Welsh, Tuesday morning,
announced his resignation as head
oi trie local weather bureau. Mr.
Welsh, who is 71 years old, together
yith his wife, will leave soon after
August 20 for California, where they
will make their home.
M. V.' Robins, who has been Col.
Welsh's first assistant for the last 15
years, will have charge of the sta
tion until the Washington officials
appoint a weather man for Omaha.
It is believed at the postoffice that
fr. Robins will be chosen to fill
Welsh's shoes.
Omaha's weather man started his
r;rvice with the government when
e was but a youngster. He has
worked his way to the top, until to
day he is considered by experts to
be one of the most capable men in
the service. -He s-known through
out the west and his weather predic
tions, although failing to come true
at times, have more than once
? roved valuable to- business men and
armers, who rely upon the predic
tions of the weather man in their
daily business.
Mr. Welsh first came to this city
in 1888 to take charge of the Omaha
weather station. He was here but a
short time when he was ordered to
report at Kansas City to erect a sta
'tion He remained in that city until
December, 1893, when he was in
structed to return to Omaha and be
first assistant to Capt. George Hunt.
Following Mr. Hunt's resignation.
Col. Welsh was appointed in charge
of the station.

s Before City Council
Dr. Harold Gifford, George T.
Morton and J. E. George of the City
Planning commission appeared be
fore the city council yesterday
to urge favorable consideration of
the river drive and inner belt traffic-way
projects which the commis

Dr. Gifford stated that it be

by the planning commission con
templates a drive to a point beyond

The council will act on these mat
ters next Monday morning. ,
Old Clothes Drive of
Near East Relief Not
Going Well in Omaha
Warm, winter clothes, especially
children's sizes, are sorely needed
for the poor little tots of Armenia,
and the drive in Omaha is not going
as well as it should, according to
Mrs. R. A. Findley, state director
of the Near East relief commission.
"It's summer now, but soon the
cold winds from the north'will be
ravaging in Armenia," said Mrs.
Findley, "and the poor, little Ar
menians will need warm clothing."
Clothing may either be given to
any laundryman, who will transport
it to headquarters, or may be taken
direct to the Municipal Auditorium
where a corps of workers are pack
ing articles to fill a special car for
shipment overseas.
