It 10 now pretty we'll settled that tho cut

that the present boundaries in front of the

probable that the harbor will, in the course
of time, fill up some. The still, muddy
water will make deposit, and that deposit
will be In the lake, unless there is an under
current That the bar should have formed
being almost a. high a. the bank and very
lsrge), supports the theory that there 10 an
uDder-current which carries the deposit to
that bar. If this under-current should
not carry off all the deposit, in .
few years the effect of this deposit
will be felt in the lake, and it is
possible that it will obstruct the channel to
the wharf. We do not think, however, this
obstruction will ever amount to much, and
we base our opinion on actual facts.
When these deposits are first made, they
are very soft, and the continual passage of
steamers over them, as is the case here, will
in all probability remove them. In other
cutoffs on the Mississippi these deposits are
90 soft that steamers can pillow through
them when there is little or no water. The
Della and other boats going into Davis
bend have had this experience. This shows
that if the continual passage of the boats
over the channel the very short distance
from our hsrbor to the current of the Mis-.
sissippi river is not sufficient to keep it
open, that it can easily be kept open by Q
little dredging every few years. Ticksbury

JEAN CArcAPo KILLED.-One night last
week Jean Cstcspo, an Italian, was shot
and killed in . Gallatin street dance
house, very low place where desperate
characters assemble after dark. Several of
the gang were INDUCING in skylarking,. but
it is believed that there existed something
serious under the guise of play. During
the scufding half dozen pistol shots were
fred and one man took pretty good
punching. How Cstcspo was shot or by
whom was not learned, but there existed .
belief that Frank Murphy, the proprietor of
the dance house, fred the fatal shot, but
thus far the circumstances can not convict
him. After the trouble Murphy, who il an
italian, felt compelled to secrete himself a.
he believed his life to be in danger When
IN opportunity offered he surrendered him
self to Sergeant Begeron, third precinct,
but there existed NO charge against him by
the coroner or anybody else. Such being
the case Captain Lswlor told the prisoner
to 90 free, but Murphy refused to leave his
cell until after dark, when he might escape
the vengeance of enemies, real or fancied.
He has gone his way.
