TELRGRAPnIC NEWS.

Congressman King OF Louisiana, has
received telegram from Rodney, Mis-.
sissipp, which says: The Kemp levee
gave away Tuesday. This makes the
disaster complete, and the Mississippi
valley one vast inland sea. This VIII
make the loss beyond calculation, to
say nothing Of the loss Of life and suffer-
ing by the people. Congress must
come to our relief, and feed the people
at once. The lofts of our gin houses
and floating RATS will be the only place
of abode. | believe the best mode OF

Engineer Department in charge of the
river improvement. They have every
appliance necessary. and less waste and
imposition would attend their efforts.

Taylor and his wife to the floor. Both

One week ago on Sunday last DR.. j.

Prospects for Bear Gulch.

We get information from a source
that we deem perfectly reliable that Il
twenty stamp quartz mill will be put
in operation in Bear Gulch in the early
summer probably in June. This en-
terprise, like that of the Emigrant
Gulch Cone compa y, is based upon
property of demonstrated value. The
mill will commence crushing ore from
the mines owned by Jas. Gourley. Neal
Gillis and others. There are, it is es-
timated, 100000 worth of ore now
out and ready for crushing. The prop
erty is the best developed in eastern.
Montana, and one Of the best develop
ed in Montana. Developing work has
been in progress many years, and sew
eral thousand dollars have actually
been taken out by operating primi-
tive Mexican arastra. When the
twenty stamp mill is put in operation,
supplied with settlers and all the latest
devices for saving gold, the yield will
not fail to more than satisfy the in
vestors and astonish us all.
