Just a trace of rain fell several times today. Such weather us has been prevailing has shattered the predicting appara tus of the old timers of tills section and other amateur weather prophets. They simply cannot understand why n down Knr of rain has not followed shortly after these wind outbursts, as nearly always in the past. Now tho old timers with their repu tntions shattered as weather oracles but Btlll gamo and full of hope, Bay that they look for a big storm of some kind to conio when this freak weather spell breaks. Meantime unless there Is a steady downpour of rain In the valley, and much more snow in the mountains within the next l'ew months, the pres ent year will go down In the records ns one of tho driest ever known. For the pnHt 111 years tlio rainfall here abouts has been about 1G Inches, and up to date the rainfall siuco lust Sep tember Is now five or six inches short. Only about a half Inch fell during this last month, whereas the average Jan uary rainfall of recent years has been about one and one half Inches. Not only that hut there has been n shortuge of snowfall In the hills and mountains, which If It continues, bodes 111 to Irrigation in the valley next sum mer. In the Dead Indian section, accord ing to reports which reached bore yes terday, there are at present only eight Inches of snow nt the dlvido, in com parison with three or mora feet of snow In rocont years. This snow shortage is also plainly evident In the llutte Fulls district whero homesteaders are now nble to walk out to their homesteads, even within four miles of Mt. Pitt, whereas In previous years at this time these homesteads could not be reached be cause of tho great depth of snow. NT 1923 WASHINGTON. Jan. 31.

The courthouse cost (42,500 and whefi the contractor got through he was suffering from acute pains in the pocketbook. The contractor who built the foundation, sufficiently stout to hold up the rock of Gibraltar, had fin ished the job, he was In such financial shape, that residents of Jacksonville and the county, gave him a benefit dance. It was quite a party, say the pioneers who participated. According to County Judge Gardner, tho buildings In Jacksonville are a source of delight to architects, and every house holds some bit of work manship, long out of style. More architecture of the period before the Civil War, is still Intact in Jackson ville, than in any oilier town In the land, Is the claim. The fancy pulnting noticeable on the door panels, window sills, and ta bles of the courthouse, was all the rage when the courthouse was built. It Is of a wavy nature, the waves being produced with a fine tooth comb pulled through the paint, whilo it was wot. The grain in the wood wus produced by rubbing a peeled potato, after the wood had been painted with linseed oil, and turpentine. The artisans of tho old days had a few tricks.
