ALL RECORDS BROKEN By HEAVY JAINEALL Thirteen Inches at Augusta Dur ing 25 Days Which Have Just Passed. Special to Tbe Georgian. Augusta, Go., July 28.—The rainfall for Augusta during the post 28 days has been a record for the local terri tory. The amount Is the largest that has, fallen during the past 38 years, during which time the statistics have been recorded, and the local station has been In existence. The total amount of rainfall during the peat 25 days has been 12.99 Inches, or prac tically 18 Inches. This Is more than a half Inch a day, or enough rainfall for double the amount of time. The next largest amount for an en tire month has been 11.88, which waa recorded In March, 1876. The excess In the rainfall for the month Is 8.92 Inches, and the excess for the year Is 6.08, or almost enough to make up the deficiency for last year, which was very dry. Among the other months that have been visited with heavy rainfalls dur ing the past 36 years la August of 1897 when the total rainfall was 10.19, and In July of 1889, when It was 10.10. The farms In this section have suf fered much. COURT Of APPEALS BILL UPON MONDAY Pres. West Urges All Mem bers To Be Present for This Measure. Before the session of the senate come to a close Thursday, President West warned all the members that a bill jof the utmoat Importance would be up for passage next Monday, and called upon all the senators to lay aside matters that were not Imperative and be pres ent, as It was a constitutional measure. He had reference to the court of ap peals bill, which passed the house on Wednesday by an overwhelming ma jority. There Is hardly a doubt but that the senate will pass the Slaton bill as passed by the house, which pro vides for three judges to form a court appeals. On Tuesday the McHenry lease bill for the Western and Atlantic railroad will be the special order, ond It Is highly probable that the child labor measure will come up for passage on Thursday.
