The drouth, which it is to be hop
ed was permanently broken by the
rains of Sunday and Monday, was
the most extensive and severe ever
known through the middle and
western portion of the United
States. 1t extended from the
Rocky Mountains east to Virginia
and Pennsylvania, and from the
northern chain Of lakes to the Gulf.
In this locality, while there has
been several good showers, thsre
has not been rain sufficient to wet
the ground through since the mid
die Of July, and it will take several
such rains as the last to thoroughly
wet it. The COURIER last week re-
ceived a letter from Mr.. Zurich, OF
Huntley, Montana, a former citizen
here, in which he says they have
had no rain in four months. 1t has
unquestionoably reduced largely
the breath OF winter wheat ground
which will be sown, and farmers
will likely yet find it profitable to
put in as much as possible.
But it is hoped the usual autumn
rains have now begun. They will
bring with them, however, perils to
health, as we'll as blessings to crops,
and persons using drinking water
from cisterns or streams should boil
it before using, if they would avoid
sickness.
In an article on this subject the
Evansville Courier says physicians
and experts in bacteriology explain
that the first rains after a long pc
riod Of drouth clean the air OF the
flying putrid PARTICLES and typhus
germs, which being washed into
cisterns contaminate the water there
in thoroughly, and leave the user,
open to great danger Of the dreaded
typhoid. E.
So, after a rain period, there ii
even more reason for boiling cisterl
water than before.
Typhoid fever levies a heavy ta'
on communities it visits. In one G
a series Of lectures in the state uni
versity at Bloomington, Ind, las
Friday, DIR. X. E. Lyons, head pre-
fessor Of chemisty and bacteriolog
in that institution, gave estimate
OF the cost of an annual typhoi
fever scourge in his commun't,
Bloomington suffered fifteen dealt
by typhoid in the year ending DC
1, at a cost, the doctor computes,
$40,555.

septed is given below:

WE HOLD OUR BREATH
That Is, Topeka Does, Until
That Auditorium Bill Passes.

With Representatives McKeever,
Brooke and Larimer and Senator Sterne
watching the Topeka auditorium bill
there is little doubt of its final passage
when it reaches a vote.
The representatives say that the Pop
ulist members of the legislature have
no desire to impede the bill and those
who have been interviewed take the
broad view that since Topeka wants an
auditorium it would be foolish for the
legislature to stand in the way.
Representative McKeeVer told a Jour
nat reporter that he will keep a close
watch on the measure and that its pas
sa ge will be urged as soon possible.
Nothing was lost by the delay in it's
introduction and the record was broken
when the bill was introduced and
crowded to third reading within an
hour.
ed by the Commercial club are concen-
trated on the bill before the legislature
They say it will be time enough to begin
on details when the question of the use
of the coal hole fund has been submit
ted to the people at the spring election
II. w. Neiswanger who requested the
appointment of the committee by Presi-
dent Davis of the Commercial club
thinks that there will be little trouble
in the auditorium bill being passed.
Il have talked to several Populist
members of the house, said he, and
they all told me that there will be no
trouble about the bill and that it will
surely be passed. do not believe that
the Populist members Of the legislature
will stand in the way of the measure.
They are willing that Topeka should
build an auditorium if the people want
it and they will not throw cold water
on the project.
."Our own representa- tives say that the
bill viii probably pass and though the
session is drawing to close it will re-
quire so little time to pass the bill that
there can be no good objection to its
consideration"
Mr.. Neiswanger thinks that the plan
for building an auditorium suggested by
P. 1. Bonebrake in last evenings
Journal good one. THAT is just the
thing" said he. I'm that way the
auditorium may be built without any
one feeling it. 1t would give the city
a new hall, which is very much needed,
and would also afford a place for all
kinds of large gatherings.
Il think that Mr.. Bone brakes plan
would be much the easiest way of
building an auditorium. BY that
means it would belong to the city and
there would be no question about
taxes. I think that whenever the au-
ditorium is built it should be the prop
erty of the city, for people cannot ex-
pect it to be a source of sufficient reve-
nue. to justify the expenditure of
large sum of money by any individual
or private corporation"
F. M New1and, who was superintend-
ent of the Pure Food exposition, agrees
with Mr.. Bonebrake. The building
now used for city hail. said he, is not
suited for that purpose, and if the city
can sell it and get new building and
auditorium with the proceeds of the
sale it would be an excellent thing. The
plan advanced by MIR. BOnebrake is
good one, and the people should think
about it before an auditorium is built
The building should belong to the city.

BIG STRIKE LIKELY.
Chicago May Have One Involving
10000 Men,

Chicago, Feb. 24-Paralysis of build
ing operations for an indefinite period
in Chicago and Cook county and an
immense strike in the building trades
involving $4,000 men, are not improbable
contingencies. Unless a disagreement
is settled which has sprung up between
the Masons' and Builders association
and the Bricklayers' er9lion, members
of both organizations believe Chicago
will witness a greater labor conflict
than that which was waged in the
building trades for nine weeks in 1887.
That strike, which affected thousands
of wOrkmen in a dozen of the building
trades, was the result of a quarrel be-
tween the Masons' and Builders asso-
citation and the Bricklayers' union.
The question of a general strike has
been discussed at the last two meet
ings of the union. Some members ad-
vocated it. If the 1000 union brick
layers engage in a strike it will force
into idlnesS all other building crafts.
Plasterers, bod carriers, fathers, car
penters and the rest can do nothing
while the bricklayers and stone masons
refuse to work and they will not try
under the present system.
For three weeks the committees of
arbitration of the association and the
union have been trying to agree on
working rules for the next year, which
commences March 81. They came to
no satisfactory understanding, were in
a deadlock for several days, and this
week are in open rupture. The joint
arbitration board adjourned sine die,
with the agreement for the year I'M
made, vital demands from each side re-
jected, and negotiations have been
dropped If the present differences are
unsettled by April 1, arbitration will be
suspended and strikes, which must be-
come general, will follow.

ton at the Opera in Chicago.

Chicago. Feb. 24.-Mrs. Celia Wallace
shone Respondent at the opera last night
in her $4,000 gown. + The box she occupied
was a target towafd which the eyes and
attention of the vast audience were di-
rected. Even Calve could not hold the
attention of the fashionable throng
against the charm of the gorgeous gown
Mrs Wallace arrived late. and she was
instantly discovered" She behaved like
veteran under fire. How lovely" was the
general exclamation. The treasures of the
magnificent creation were lace and prec-
ious stones. $4,000 worth of old lace and
$40 600 worth of diamonds and pearls
Every move unveiled half-hidden cres-
cents, sunbursts and stars.
The pearls were the most beautiful ever
worn in Chicago At the throat was
magnificent brooch containing thirty dia-
monds averaging carats each. The
triumph was a diamond tiara. The gown
is a blue satin duchesse. with court train
in mornfng-glOry brocade pattern. The
gown was made by the same house which
turned out Mrs. McKinley's inauguration
gowns. In the box with Mrs Wallace
were Mr.. and Mrs. Mason Staring, the
latter a daughter of the late Prof. Swing.
