 Notes of Interest.
 Notwithstanding the bad weather yestsr- day large number of local sportsmen cele- brated the day here, the game law being off, by repairing to the woods on the heights to slay as many yellow hammers as they conven- iently could. Most of the sportsmen were juvenile Nimrods, the older huntsmen pre- ferring to wait until the weather was trile drier. About the only game that is at all plentiful hereabouts are yellow hammers and woodceck, although the enthusiastic young shooters are not at all particular and will blaze away at anything from chippy bird up to crow. Quail and partridge are un- usually scarce. Woodcock hunting will be rather difficult at present, as nobody knows where to find the game. The low grounds where they usually feed at this time of year are now all flooded with water.

The Flood In the Missouri.

YANKToN, OAK, March 26.-The great
rise in the Missouri river has not reached
here yet, but is hourly expected.
The river is clear of Ice, a gorge having
formed fifty miICs north. Six inches Of
snow fell yesterday and the weather con,
tinues cold. This will hold the ice gorges
till the rush of water from the nOrthreaches
them.
Settlers along the river from Bismarck
to Sioux City are watching the situation
a~nxiously, and will move at the first indi,
cation Of an overflow. The situation on
the upper river is identical with the spring
Of 1881, when the Missouri river overflow
ed its banks for miles, destroying life and
property of great value.
A Sioux City, Iowa, dispatch says: The
situation on the river here is practically
unchanged. The weather again turned
cold Saturday night ard three inches of
snow has since fallen. The gorge oppo-
site the city has been augmented. The
gorges five miles above and opposite the
mouth Of the Sioux river, a. well as the
one ten miles above, opposite Jackson,
Neb, still hold. This makes the situation
serious, because a flood is pouring down
the river still farther up.
The present conditions are almost iden-
teal with those preceding the great flood
of 1882. The snow lies deep all along the
Missouri valley and on the prairies drain
ing into it. There is n series of gorges in
the river from here to IS or 100 miles
above, while the upper Missouri and its
continents have broken up and are flood
ing. If the weather turns warm disastrous
floods must ensue. A great amount of
property is exposed here and there is in
tense anxiety, not only at this point, but
throughout the lowlands along the river.
