Last Saturday evening about clock
fire broke out in the residence OF
Frank Lantery, on Borland avenue, two
miles from the city, on the Charleston

THE RIVERS AND WEATHER.
The latest information from the
Osceola bar is to the effect that six feet
can be found without much difficulty,
but the channel is not yet sufficiently
defined to permit the passage of boats
drawing more. Between Cairo and St.
Louis the same depth is reported, and
above st. Louis to the foot of the lower
rapids there is four feet. The Illinois
is down to about two and half feet, and
the Missouri has foot more. The Ohio
has eleven feet in the channel at Cincin-
natl, four feet at Pittsburg, and three feet
six inches down the chute at Louisville.
The Arkansas has two feet eight inches
by the gauge at Little Rock, and White
river two feet at Jacksonport. The
Ouachita reports two feet scant to Cam
den and the Yazoo three feet to the
Tallahatchie, and all the above named
streams are falling. Red river has twelve
feet at Shreveport and is the only rising
tributary to the greatest river in the
world. Here the river is falling three
inches daily, and is so low that the bars
opposite the city show their heads above
the water.
