about the center of the heavy precipi-
tation thruout the northwest in the last
twenty-four hours. For the twenty-four
hours previous to am. today, the rain
fall in Minneapolis was l.4S inches:
During the half hour from IL to 1890
this noon, a half inch more moisture
fell, making the total precipitation for
thirty-six hours unusually heavy, just
fraction less than inches. ., ~
There wasn't but one point which yes
terday had heavier precipitation than
Minneapolis, and thas was New London,
Mimi, with 1856 inches. At st. Paul
the precipitation was 1.34. The entire
northwest is having cloudy, threatening
weather.
T. S. Outram, director of the local
weather bureau, has little encourage
ment for tomorrow. The prediction is
"Showers and thunderstorms tomorrow
and warmer tonight
The recent rains have had little effect
so far on the stage OF water IN the

prediction that tomorrow will see an
other slight increase.
Church Is Fired.
LIGHTNING struck the steeple on the
Third avenue N and Third street, short
ly before 1 o'clock today and started a
small blaze. - !.
Several Of the slate shingles were
torn off by the bolt and the ,woodwork
underneath began to blaze. The tire
department was on hand promptly ana
by means Of a powerful stream on the
outside of the spire, and chemicals In
side, the flames were soon extlngulshed.
The damage was nominal.
Little other damage was done by the
storm. Some Of the police and fire de-
partment lines were thrown out OF or
der and several lines owned by the tele-
phone companies were thrown out for q
time. No serious damage was done, but
several persons were unable to use thelr
phones for several hours:
Lightning struck the flagstaff of the

CITY WOULD SELL
ITS WATER RIGHTS
ALDERMEN TIRE OF KEEPING
WHITE ELEPHANT.
Official Of Water Power Company and
Council Committee Dicker Over Nine
Mill Powers Controlled by City for
Waterworks Use-Question of Rental
Still Undecided.

William de Ia Barre, treasurer and
agent, Of the, Minneapolis Mill company
and the st. Anthony Falls Water Power
company, will meet with the council
committee on waterworks tomorrow af-
ternoon to negotiate for the purchase Of
the city's waterpower rights at the
falls: Having abandoned the East Side
and West Side pumping stations for all
time, the city has no use for the power.
and as the properties are source of
considerable expense, the waterworks
authorities have planned to dispose of
them .--t =.
There is no. likelihood that either
station will ever be needed again. The
West Side station has been dismantled
and the East Side can not be made
serviceable for a long time. \ With the
new Northeast pumping station and the
big reserve plant at Camden Place, it is
considered that the city's water supply
is amply protected.
Source of Loss. :
The city owns three so-called mill
powers in connection with the East sta
ton on Hennepin island, and owns two
and leases four mill powers in connec-
ton with. the West station.
The leases cost the city $4,000 year,
and the amount is charged whether the
pumps are in operation or not. This
matter has been the source of some dis
pute. between the city: and the Mime
apois Mill company, and late in 1904
the city refused to make any further
payments on the ground that it could
not be forced to pay for power which
was not used. There is now due 81 900,
according to the accounts presented by
the mill company. o.. =.
The latter has already made a propo
sition for taking over the property, but
it was not satisfactory to the aldermen
composing the committee, and has been
withdrawn. On the city's books the
two stations are listed at nearly $780,
for anywhere near that sum.
