MISSISSIPPI oKERFLoWs.


The history of the Mississippi delta is
history of repeated overhows.
Francois Xavier Martin records an ex-
traordinary rise in l7l8.
Gagarre states that in 1735 the waters
were 80 high that many levees were
broken and New Orleans was mum
dated.
A great flood is reported by Gov. Sar-
gent as occurring in ITO, of which few
particulars are given.
In 1872 the whole districts of Attak-
apas and Opelousas we're inundated.
Another overflow occurred in 1855,
another in 1891, others in 1895 and
1899, and in 1909, according to Gov.
Sargent. the resulting devastation was
so great the people imagined the North
ern lakes had broken through a channel
to the river
In 1911 and in 1913 the river again
broke through the levee, inundating the
entire Teche country, and in 1915 "a
very great flood " occurred, in which the
Ohio river reached at its mouth the
highest point ever recorded.
Again IN 1916, 1923 and 1924 portions
Of the country were overlooked
Between 1924 and 1860 seven "great"
foods are recorded, respectively in 1928,
1914, 1919, 1850, 1851, 1858 and 1859.
All these were marked with great de-
struction of property, butthatof 1850wa
by far the worst, the damage occasioned
being immense, the st. Francis, Tensas
and Yazoo bottoms being entirely sub
merged. The principal breaks in the
levee were above the Louisiana line at
bayou Macon, at Point Lookout, at
Island No. If2, at New Carthage and at
Rodney. The water during this over
flow rose steadily until March 10. then
declined slowly until early in April. then
rose again until the middle Of May,
when they attained their highest point,
and then rapidly subsidized, resulting in
the almostrentire destruction of the
crops.

THE WIND As A MOTipE POWER
Turning, now, to sources of energy
derived from sun-heat, let us take the
wind irst When we look at the regis
ter of British shipping and see 10000
vessels, Of which about 10000 are
steamers and $4,000 sailing-ships, and
when we think how vast an absolute
amount Of horsepower is developed by
the engines of those steamers, and how
considerable proportion it forms of the
whole horse power taken from coal an
nually in the whole world at the present
time, and when we consider the sailing
ships of other nations, which must be
reckoned in the account, and throw in
the little item of windmills, we find that
even in the present day of steam ascend
ency, old fashioned wind still supplies a
large part of sill the energy used by
man. But however much we may re-
greet the time when Hoods young lady,
visiting the fens of Lincolnshire at
Christmas, and writing 20 her dearest
friend in London (both go years old now
if they are alive), describes the delight
OF sitting in bower and looking over
the wintry plain not desolate, because
windmills lend additional animation
to the scene" we cannot shut our eyes
to the fact of lamentable decadence OF
wind power. Is this decadence perma-
nent, or may we hope that it is only
temporary?
The subterranean coal-stores of the
world are becoming exhausted surely,
and not slowly, and the price of coal is
upward bound-upward bound on the
whole, though no doubt it will have its
ups and downs in the future as it has
had in the past, and as must be the case
in respect to every marketable COM
modify. When the coal is all burned,
or long before it is all burned, when
there is 50 little of it left, and the coal
mines from which that little is to be ex-
cavated are SO distant and deep and hot
that its price to the consumer is greatly
higher than at present, it is most prob
able that wind-mills or wind-motors in
some form viii again be in the ascendant,
and th wind will do mans mechanical
work, on land at least, in proportion
comparable to its present doing of work
at sea.--Poputar Science Monthly.
