I'he River.

On thursday the river at Bayou
Sare guago marked tilirty-tirce
and onc-half feet. On the same
date last year, the stage was thir-
ty-fvo feet; showing that tho wa
ter was one foot and q half lower
Thursday last than it was on the
corresponding date last year.
From the rate ut which tho rise
continued at the time our report
closed, we have little doubt that
the stage this morning will show
about what it WAS this day last
year, or near onto It.
The reports fnom above are not
encouraging, and It is Of no avail
to shut our eyes to the fact that
we are Threatened with another

Bayou Sara again Fighting
Water.

The water on the outside of the
ievees being now above the level
of the drainage canals, it is neces-
sary to usc the steam elevators in
order to relieve the town of Bay
on Sara from the accumulation OF
rain and seipage water. The first
run Of the machinery for the sea-
son was made commencing on
Monday last, and water that COW
cred the entire lower part Of the
commons and Fair Grounds was
all drawn off by Tuesday evening.
We regret that our sister city is
again necessitatcd to resort to
running the drainage machinery,
but it is comforting to know that
the running of the present system
ls infinitely less expensive than
was the old. We sincerely trust
Bayou Sara may be spared the dis
aster Of an overflow this year.

WOODCHUCKS AS CLIMBERS
The Fact Established That They Can and
Do Climb Trees.


Some people have long asserted that
the woodchuck can climb trees as read
lily as the bear can, and that in the
early summer they habitually seek the
branches of apple and other fruit trees
to feed on the tender and juicy young
leaves. This assertion has been ridl-
culed by others, who say that it is inn
possible for a. woodchuck to climb 2
tree, the animal not being physically
capable Of performing such a feat.
That the woodchucl1 can and does
climb trees, however, was demon
strated in most unrnistakable manner
in an eastern village Il few days ago.
r. Beck, president of the Eammonds-
port IN. W board Of education, WAS
sitting in the door in the rear of a store
when he saw a big woodchuck come
stealing along a gravelly knoll across
the creek, not more than a hundred
yards distant. The woodchuck stopped
at the foot of tree, inspected it for g.
moment and then climbed it with the
ease of squirrel, but going up as q,
bear climbs tree. Beck called others
TO witness the sight. The woodchuck
did not remain long in the tree, and
came down, letting itself down rump
first. It then went up another tree,
where it could be seen making feast
on the tender leaves. After enjoying
the novel sight for some time a citizen
got his rifle and picked the woodchuck
from it's perch. The animal was very
fat, weighing nearly twenty pounds.

Yopr Mother,

Honor the dear aged mother. Time
has scattered the snoWdakes on her
brow, pillowed deep burrows on her
cheeks, yet she is sweet and beautiful
now. The lips are thin and sunken,
but those are lips that have kissed many
a hot tear from childish cheeks, and
these are the sweetest lips ia all the
world. The eye is dim, yet it ever
glows with soft radiance of holy love
which can never fade. All! yes; she is
q dear old mother. The sands of life
are nearly run out, but, feeble as she is,
she will go further and reach down
lower for you than all others on earth.
You cannot walk Into midnight
where she cannot see you; you cannot
walk into prison whose bars will keep
her out: you cannot mount scaffold
too high for her to reach, that she may
kiss you and bless you in evidence of
her deathless love. When the world
despises and forsakes you, when it
leaves you by the wayside to die un-
noticed. the dear. good mother will
gather you into her feeble arms and
carry you home, and tell all your virtues
until you almost forget your soul is dis
figured by vice. Love her tenderly aid
cheer her declining years with holy de-
voti0n.
