TEXAS IS SOAKED.
Rain Has Been Falling For q
Week All Over the State.

Dallas, Tex, July 25.-There has been
almost a continuous fall of rain cover
ing practically the entire state since last
Sunday, the down-pour being particu-
larly heavy in western Texas. In Curry
county rain has fallen for seven days
and nights and streams are out of their
banks. The town of Snyder has had no
mail for three days and is cut off from
all communication except by telephone.
Traffic on the Texas & Pacific is al
most completely tied up at Abilene. No
trains have arrived there from the west
for three days.
The town of Big Springs is under wa
ter from three to ten feet and there is
much damage to the surrounding farm
ing country.
At Pecos the Pecos river is two miles
wide and is flooding the alfalfa and
ways have declined to receive freight
or express for shipment. There are
many washouts along the line of the
Texas & Pacific west of Abilene and
general traffic perhaps will be inter-
rupted for several days.
At Waco the Brazos rose from Is to
% feet within a short time yesterday,
but is reported to be falling this morn
ing.
In and around Dallas a driving rain
began falling at o'clock last night and
still continues. The cotton fields have
received a thorough drenching which
will materially help that staple.

TOPEKA LOSES, OF COURSE.
Weather Bureau Discriminates in Fa-
v>rof Kansas City.

The United States weather bureau does
not provide Topeka with the weather
bulletins that the chief office of the bur-
eau in Kansas should have.
What topeka gets in the way of bulle-
tins and weather maps are sent from
the Kansas City office and by the time
they reach here are "a hours old. One
of the excuses given for the prompt SER
vice in Kansas City and the poor service
in Topeka, is that the Missouri town needs
the information on account of the stock
exchange there. Topeka has millers,
commission merchants and grain men who
are quite much interested in the crop
climate news as the gamblers on the Kan
sas City board of trade.
Topeka receives climate and crop
bulletin service rehashed from the re-
ports received at Kansas City. Concordia
and Wichita receive bulletins "a hours
in advance of Topeka. The request has
been made that the Topeka office receive
the daily bulletins and be allowed to issue
maps and reports and give better ser
vice. The Kansas City office receives
daily reports at seven o'clock in the MORN
ing from the following towns in Kansas;
Baker, Concordia, Dodge City, Dresden,
Fort Scott, Hays City, Macksville Man
haitian, Mcpherson, Usage City, Sedan,
Toronto and Wichita. Topeka receives
these second handed from Kansas City
when they are "a hours old.
