IRREGULARITIES OF THE MISSISSIPPI.
Whar an Old Pilot Knows About the t.reai

An old Mississippi plot has been unbo-

ever else we have learned, or what we have
not learned, this spring, we have discovered
that no mortal understands the Mississippi
River. Whether it understands itself is very
doubtful Occasionally the current will run
around in loop, like the big part of a cnpi-

till distractions melt away, then it will sud
denly cut across the loop, change its conrse
and complete the d. Sometimes a lake will
be formed on the intervening ground NJ
merous lakes along the great stream have
thus been formed. Again, the loop part
will be practically drained of water, towns
built on the outer bank of the old curve will
be left high and dry. Many promising
Mississippi River town has been thus cruelty
left in the lurch, miles away inland. New
Orleans itself is continually haunted by the
dread that the river will leave it, To this
fear may be traced the frantic efforts to make
the river all run one way-past New Orleans.

ments for opening an alley across block 30, of
Rice & Irvine's addition. In the case OF the

of public works erred as to the manner of its
assessment, upon which the court says: "Tak-
ing the theory upon which the board of public
works proceeded, that these were separate lots
fronting on Franklin street, and the assess
ment is probably not unfair, but the board
must, in making assessments, have regard to
the actual form and condition of property at
he time OF the taxing, and not solely to its
form and condition at a prior time. The error
in the assessment has arisen from mistake in
tue theory in which the assessment should be
made" rs the conclusion, the court holds
that the board had jurisdiction, but for the
error msde as above the assessment must be
overrued As 10 the appeal of Alexander
Ramsey, the court finds no such error, and
