Sunday School Convention.

10 the Ed1tor OF the Ledger.
MEXICO, Mo-, May 18.-By the
earnest invitation of church work.
ers of every denomination in our
city and business men of all lines,
the State Union Sunday School
| Convention holds its annual session
of 1888 in our city. At a union
meeting some two weeks since,
committees were selected from the
various churches for the purpose OF
finding homes for the delegates
who will come to that Convention.
AS yet but eight or ten have signi-
fed their willingness to entertain
those delegates. I am receiving
letters daily asking for appoint
ment to some place while here.
This is no UNCONVENTIONAL Conven-
ton. All churches are equally in
terssted and the best talent of sew
eral denominations viii Be here,
4a1e crowds that come from a
distance must be cared for. Surely
Mexico will not sacrifice her social
reputation on an occasion Of this
kind and in a cause in which all
are interested. I am ready
- ronord +ba naroa IF all uho will
offer their hospitality upon that oc-
casion-the 9th, 9th and 7th Of
June. AS the committees secure
places of entertainment, they will
please report, that I may assign
them guests in answer to the many
inquiries and thus avoid a disagee-
able rush on day Of convention.

Allen put the coin away carefully
in an inside pocket and took his
leave amid the prayers of his
weeping relatives. When he re
turned, his people gathered t.
greet the hero, and among then
was the old uncle.

TIM GREAT FLOOD.
The Hiae Of 1871 neaten-Tha any
Levee broken IN Five Places
Below Hannibal.

QuIscY. III., May l.-The great
hood IN the Mississippi yesterday
passed the high water mark of
1881, and now IL without 4 prece-
dent in the history Of high water,
with tho single exception Of the
famous flood Of 1851 which il will
come very near equaling. It has
been raining heavily along the Mis-
sissipni Valley, and It il not OK
peeted that the river will recede
for tho next few days. Thousands
Of people line the bluffs and levee
to see tho endless amount of dam
age that the river has already done.
Buildings which q few weeks ago
were high and dry + surrounded
by water and stand far out from
shore.
At HANNIBAL.
HANNIBAL, No., May l7.-At
4:15 o'clock this morning q break
occurred in the Sny Levee at q point
about two miles below the Hanni-
bal bridge. and this was followed at
6:45 o'clock by q larger and more
serious one above the bridge a
short distance. Whistles were
-
blown as danger signals and the
widest excitement prevailed in
this city, rs well as among the few
farmers who had stubbornly re-
manned in the bottoms. The zoe
men who had been engaged all
might in the work of stopping
seeps and placing bags of sand on
top of the levee to keep the river
back as long as possible, attempted
to close the breaks but without
success. The roar of the turbulent
waters was deafening and filed all
hearts with terror. Many persons
viewed the work of devastation and
ruin.
CONFIRMATION AT LOUISIANA.
LOUISIANA, No., May 18.-The
food continues with rains to make
the situation more disagreeable,
All the inhabitants of the beautiful
force ertile valley will now be
ed to fn d flee, as the flood wi
cover the entire surface.
The situation to the farmers Of
the Sny bottom is extremely
gloomy. The prediction is freely
made that the entire levee will
wash away. In that event the
Government will be called upon
for aid. The Chicago & Altor
railroad company has a construc'
ton train and a large force Of mer
constantly at work on its embark
ment across the bottom and at thu
Sny bridge. It seems impossible
to save the road-bed and bridge
but if human efforts can accomplish
it the plucky G. & A. Management
will do it..
