Cairo already has system of under
ground drainage that will not be disturbed
in the least if street raising is lnaugurated'
Why the Argus SO persistently lays itself
open to charge Of presuming that It's
readers are stupid fools enough not to
know that it is lying to them when 1t
prates about the necessity of an additional
system of underground sewerage in case
the streets are raised, is beyond our com
prohensop. The Argus goes great deal
further than we would ever dare to 90, to
insult the understanding OF the reading
public.

A machine called atricice, for navIga-
ting water, has been attracting some atten-
ton at the foot Of Fourth street for some
days back. 1t was invented by Cairo
man and is owned by several young men,
among them Messrs. Tim Coyle, and T. NJ.
Lovctt Its wheels are of the form of
bouys, made OF tin and painted red, Out
side the side wheels paddle wheels are adj
iusted, which, being worked by the feet and
hands by means of levers, propel the ma
chine. Only one man eau ride the thing
at time, though it looks as though it
might easily bear up three or four. 1t is
still incomplete and when finished will be
given a trial trip in front Of the city.
The Argus pubisher's"high grade talk
as we catch it on the street." purportng to
be expressions from "Messrs. A, b, c, d, L,
F, G, etc" through the whole alphabet,
bears upon its face that unmistakable
stamp of romance that has characterized
nearly all the Argus utterances on street
filing. "Messrs. A, B, G." etc, are Gre
atoms of the publishers own fancy, con
jured up during his rAmbles between his
house and his sanctum, They have not
even the merit Of being applicable to the
subject he aims at. AS arguments against
street filing they have about as much
weight as ESop's Fables and much less
weight than any ANONYMOUS communca-
ton would have.
Only one complaint was made to Chief
Myers yesterday. From among all
the strangers that "took in"
the city only one claimed to
have been "taken in." He was an elderly
man, had come with $50 in his pockets,
had visited six or eight houses and had
some fun, then lay down in one of the
streets and fell into drunken slumber,
and when he was awakened by an officer,
he got mad, wanted TO cut his heart out and
Eow his head of, but was forced to 60 to
police headquarters, and there discovered to
his surprise that he had not quite as much
money as he had when he came into town
and swore that he had been robbed.
Barrett " Co.'S show drew big crowd
of strangers to the city yesterday from all
directions All the railroads came in with
extra delegations OF passengers from along
their lines. The procession in the street
was avery long one, more fancy wagons
were displayed than at any previous show,
