steamtoating under Difficulties q
Time on the st. Croix. ..''A' -

AAAO va eHO Sts cAOAAs
The following humorous article fromsthe
st. Croix Monstor, published at Taylor's
Falls, gives fair description of steamboat
ing Of the present day, anywhere northof
St. Louis. ''@
The oldest inhabitant is called upon o:say
that he never knew the river so low, in
many places grass is growing in the path Of
the steamboat, and river men are facetiously
talking Of using the deserted channel for az
ricultural purposes. We recently made a
trip on the Enterprise, 'or the purpose of
making observations on the stage ofthe
water, and correcting public opinion il fneed
be- We had heard, but had not credited It,
that such boats as still kept on the river,
raised great dust in their path. AS we
stepped on board the Enterprise sorry
looking wight asked us if we are going up
the street. Of course we did not see the
point Of the remark. Willow river bar, op-
'posite Hudson, was covered with fine
growth Of grass, and extended within five
rods of the Minnesota shore. All the cattle
Of Hudson were being pastured upon it.
AT the narrowest part of the channel oppo.
site the BAR the depth of the water was
found to be fourteen inches. As the boat
drew eighteen inches, we anticipated some
difficulty, and were, in fact, detained an
hour or so. The mode Of proceeding is
quite novel. Two men waded forward with
an anchor which they dropped in the middle
Of the stream. The crew, and other vel
disposed persons, ourself included, then pu,
the spikes in the capstan, and amused our.
selves by slowly walking around it. Hav-
ing thus wound the boat up to navigable
part OF the stream, the anchor was taken on
board, and we steamed merrily on to Still.
water. Here we passed the II. S. Allen
which is now running between Prescott and
Saltwater. As we passed on through the
green isles Of the upper St. Croix, we be-
came satisfied that any Of the rumors about
the low water was groundless saw no dust
nor was the channel ebstructed by pickerel
rscumbent across it, as the editor of the
Polk County Press says in one of his sen.
|sation items. As to the effect of the morn
ing dew upon the navigation, the captain is
not positive, but an outward event decided
the question in favor of the morning dew
Just at nightfall we ran high and dry upon
Mile Island bar. In vain We sent the
anchors forward in vain we rushed around
the cspstan and pulled at the ropes The
anchors dragged, the boat remained firm
and so the captain determined to remain for
the morning dew. We spent the night on
the boat in pleasing converse making the
best Of our unlucky position. Nor was the
conversation altogether Of the humorous
type, devoid ofscientifc thought Assisted
by the inventive genius of those around us
we devised a method of overcoming the oh
structions in tie St. Croix and other rivers
which is simple, ingenious, and promises t
be thoroughly effective. Suffice to say, thai
with the morning dew we foated off, and
reached the Falls without further adven
ture.
