NORMAL FOR JULY
RAINFALL FOR FIRST THIRD or
JULY WAS 2.N INCHES UP TO
MIDNIGHT LAST NIGHT, t.o4
INCHES ABOVE NORMAL, 100
NO REPORT TODAY.

No reports were received from sta
tons covered by the weather station
in Moorhead this morning, hence Mrs.
Grasse was unable to supply the usual
bulletins.
The precipitation for the twenty
four hours end Z o'clock this morning
was LIS inches. From Z o'clock last
night until Z o'clock this morning the
rain guage at the weather station in
fall for July, eleven days ending z
o'clock this morning was, 2.74 inches,
1.04 in excess of the normal, 1.60.
Up to this afternoon many rural
lines were out of order as a result of
the storm, last night, hence no reports
from arms about GIyndon, George
town, Kragnes and other local points
could be obtained. Aug. Hicks, in from
Comstock early this morning, said
there was no rain to speak of at his
farm on the river.
The forecast for today is: Unset
tied weather tonight and Saturday,
not much change in temperature.
Weather Report CurtaiIed.
1t was reported today that the rea-
son the reports from northwest sta
tions was not forthcoming, was be-
cause OF lack of appropriations. The
following from The st. Paul Dispatch
Of last evening may explain the rea-
son:
About half the weather report serv-
ice to farmers in outlying parts Of
Minnesota has been stopped tempo
rarily because of the failure of con-
gress : pass the annual appropriation
bill for the department of agriculture.
U. G. Pursell, section director, in
charge of the Minneapolis office, has
received instructions from Washing
ton to stop sending state forecasts to
thirty-four Of the smaller stations,
from which points they have been go
ing gu through the state over the
rural mail routes. It is understood
the service will be restored after the
appropriation bill is passed.
Ten Reports Omitted.
J.. N. Ryker, in charge of the St.
Pau Office, has received no instruc-
tions to curtail his work. The only
change he notices in the telegraphic
matter passing through his hands is
the omission Of ten reports. Balti-
more has been discontinued. The
Chicago Winnipeg circuit this morning
omitted San Diego, CAL; Phoenix,
Ariz.; Roswell, N. NJ, and Sheridan,
Wyo. Pierre, S. D, m Grand Forks,
N. D., which report to st. Paul, were
not heard from yesterday or today.
Madison and La Crosse reports
were not picked UP on the circuit.
Farming Districts Affected.
Word comes from Chicago that the
office there has discontinued telegraph
1c reports to hundreds of points in the
west n northwest. Reports coming
into Chicago from twenty other points
have been stopped. 1t is stated that a
large portion of the farming districts
Of Illinois, Nebraska, Wyoming, Kan
sas, Montana, the Dakotas, Missouri.
and other states will be affected.

WILL VISIT THE CAVE
Church People VIII Take Side Trip to
Great Natural Wonder.

Mammoth Cave Is truly named. 1t
Is also wonderful, marvellous. Even
the use of superlatives gives only a
faint idea of its grandeur and its beau
ty. Stalactites and stalagmites-
words so hard to remember when first
learned in phies-take on the
form of fiuted columns, of festoons
and draperies, of ceiling decorations
that would be the despair of a stucco
worker. There are great auditoriums
with lofty ceilings-one where the for
nations resemble starlit sky-domes
hundreds Of feet high, the sides form
ed of tier after tier of fiuted columns,
balanced rocks and hanging rocks;
huge piles of rocks that seemingly
have been swirled round and round by
underground waters until they have
worn great caverns; mighty crevices
or clefts as If made by earthquakes;
barren underground canyons that
might be termed underground streams,
and river, the Echo, fifteen to forty
feet wide, on which a good sized fiat
boat transports tourists for a distance
of half mile or so that they may also
enjoy the wonderful echoes.
A trip to this great natural wonder
of the great International Convention
is to be one of the interesting features
of the Disciples of Christ which will
be held in Louisville, KY, in October
of this year

viii be Made Comfortable In Second
Longest Structure of its Kind
In This Country.

When the Disciples of Christ elect
cd to hold their 1912 Internationa
Convention in the city of Louisville
KY, they were moved by many con
siderations of sentiment. The advan

weighed heavily. However, one very
practical consideration was the neces
sity of proper housing of meeting o.
such vast proportions.
These conventions are attended by
many thousands of people. 1t is ex
pected that not less than twenty thou
sand Disciples will be in attendance
at Louisville. Fortunately this city is
provided with an ideal structure for
just such an affair.
The Jefferson county armory Is the
second largest building of its kind in
the United States. 1t contains 4,450,-
100 cubic feet and is fireproof throsgh.
out The main building, which con
sists of three stories and basement,
contains quarters for officers, company
looms, lockers, gymnasium, library,
veterans room, etc., and the base
ment contains rifle range, general
toilet, artillery quarters, mess hall.
| kitchen, quartermaster department,
store room, etc.
hn Of hn nj "a
rising to height of 1913 feet is just
behind the main building. This hall
is spanned by large steel ausses,
thus affording clear floor space of
1890 square feet. The seating ca
pacity of the hall and balconies is
about 10000.
This is an extremely interesting
building, being the highest type of
its kind in this country, especially
in structural interest, size and gen
eral arrangement.
Fhis great gathering, which will be
in Louisville October 18th to aed in
elusive, will be- well provided for
meeting place in this immense struc-
cure.
In addition to furnishing an ade-
quate' place for the general meetings
of the session there are ample spaces
for the exhibits of the various socie-
ties and departments Of the church.
These exhibits are an instructive and
helpful part Of these annual conven-
Asas. Ihe week 60 Orgy -

are here portrayed. Fine publishing
companies maintain departments for
the exhibition of their books, etc.
The armory was first used few
years ago on the occasion Of the
great Louisville Home Coming"
when frequently more than twenty
thousand people were accommodated
in the spacious auditorium. AS this
convention is to be vegy much in the
nature of a home coming, it is most
fitting that 1t again be pressed into
service.
