MARCH WEATHER.

Now that the election is over, the attention
of the people of this city will again be turned
to the weather and the prospects of rain.
For several mornings past the heavens have
been overcast with light clouds, but the sun
soon dispelled them. At u o'clock last
night no stars were visible. The following
statement shows, according TO the signal
service records, the day rain fell during
March for each year since 1878. It will be
noticed that rain occurred either 3 few days
before, a few days after, or exactly on the
day the sun crossed the equator on his way
north. In March, 1S7S-'79 and 80, there
was more rain after the sun had crossed the
line than before, while in March, 1881 and
1882, there was mora rain fell before the equi-
noctial than afterward; Ia fact, In March, 1882
there was none at the time the sun crossed
tho line, nor was there any during the re-
maiuder of the month after the 19sh Dur

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
TIE ELECTION.

The city election yesterday, for a portion
of the municipal officers, passed off with com.
paratiye quiet. The chief struggles were
made over the candidacy for Trustee and for
Auditor. The vote was over three hundred
short of the usual city vote. There were no
events of special interest at the polls TO
chronicle. The absence from the polls of
business men and those having large interests
in the city was noticeable. But few of
these appeared, save to vote. 1t was ex-
pected that there would be large
force of workers at the polling places
from among the class mentioned, but
they did not put in an appearance in any
great numbers. There wac, however, very
active canvass throughout the day on the
business streets. The vote {two.thirds being
required) on tho proposition to contribute
10000 in aid Of the fund TOR a neR Pavilion
for the State Agricultural Society was prac-
tically unanimous. Upon thatquestion busi-
ness men and propeTty.owueTs were actively
at work for two weeks prior 10 the election,
and up to yesterday mcrain7, when it be-
csne evident tha5 what opposition there was
to the measure had been practically
overcome, The close contest between
Mr., Knox and Mr.. Nielsen is &C.
counted for in various ways by tae
friends of the candidates. Some charge that
the most Of the German voters unitsd on
MIR. Nielsen others that trades" were
frequent to MIR Knox's disadvantage and in
aid of other candidates on his ticket; others
that the friends Of MIR. Knox were too con-
fdent, and did not turn out as they would
have done had they deemed the opposition TO
him so formidable Il is generally conceded
that the period for making q canvass after
his nomination was altogether too short, as
it embraced but one day, the primary having
been held Saturday afternoon. On the side
of Mr.. Nielsen his friends claim his close
vote to be due to the pledges made for him
by his platform, and ths desire of many
voters TO have an effort made TO "run' the
city government on one per cant. tax rate.
The large vote for Mr.. Klox is by his friends
claimed to represent the opinion that the
specific scheme outlined in the Nielsen plat
form is impracticable, and that Mr.. Knox's
promise to do al in his power to secure econo-
my in the administration of city affairs was
sufficient pledge. To this was added the ad-
mitted competency Of Mr.. Knox for the du.
ties Of the Office, as evidenced by past SER
vices in the position. The political issue as
TO these two hzd less influence and siguif-
canoe than the Others mentioned. This ia
shown by the large vote for the winners he-
low the Trustseship, and where the party
lines were more clearly defined. Young men
made a special effort for Mr.. Buckley. giving
him his very large msjority. Between
Messrs. Mckee and Burke the fight was very
largely one of personal choics Of voters be-
tween two popular citizens. The following

uniquely charged the expense to permanent
repairs and improvements, says: Calitor-
MIA has at leass one Board of Supervisors
which understands It's business. 1t recently
appropriated $50 to provide needy mortal
with D wooden leg, charging the same to
permanent repairs and improvements The
Chicago City Council might try trepsnning
the executive head of the municipal govern
ment and charge it to the same account.
Any change in that line which would be per-
manent would certainly be an improvement.
FIXING DATE OF EAsTEB.-The question is
often asked at this season of the year as to
what determines the date Of Easter. The
answer is that it is the moon of March, which
Tennyson calls "tbe roaring moon of daft
fadils." The old ruls is that Easter shall fall
on the Sunday after the full moon which
comes after the vernal equinox. That brings
Easter this year Cd the 25.h of March. In
1918 it fell on the 22d of NJ rich, the earliest
date possible. It will not fall on that date
again in this or the following century.
