SENATE,

The senate resumed the discussion of the
interest and usury bills yesterday and
when adjournment was reached had pro
ceeded SO far as to declare that the rate of
interest should be reduced to 6 and 8 per
cent. The question Of usury was brought
square,ly before the senate, but before a Vote
could be reached the senate adjourned.
After the approval of the journal by the
senate the chair announced the recei pt OF
communication from the railroad commls-
sion giving the information asked TOR by
the Mayo resolution. The report and en-
closed documents formed a very bulky
package, and was cerred to the railroad
committee.
Among the bills introduced was one by
Senator Nelson, providing for the submits
sion OF an amendment to the constitution
prohibiting sale and manufacture or in
toxicating liquors.
Senator S. y. Peterson presented valued

Nashville, Chattanooga and Knoxville
Suffer From Too Much Water.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, March, 1.-The river
continued to rise slowly all day to-day.
Last night at dark the gauge read
40 feet 40 feet being the danger
line. River men predict that without
any more rain the river will go two
feet higher. 1t was clear and cooler here
to-day. About 500 families have been
driven from their homes Att o'clock this
afternoon the gauge registered 1873 feet. 1t
is expected the river will soon begin to re-
cede as reports have been received from
up-river points that the high waters are
slowly falling.
"A Chattanooga special says the Tennessee
river al that point mas reached the danger
line and is rising three inches per hour
Experienced river men predict that it
will reach at least iorty-five feet,
which will overflow much of the CITY.
The rain all here for thirty-s1x hours is
three and one-tOurth inches, and extends
up the river and in East Tennessee gener-
ally. The sky is overcast and the outlook
tor more showers is very promising.
A Knoxville, Tenn, special SAYS very
heavy rains prevailed throughout that Sec
streams are out OF bank. A seven year-old
girl was drowned to-day by falling in a
raging creek. A colored man named Hum
ter was drowned yesterday.

HEAVY RAIN STORM,
Several Lives Lost and Much Prop
.erty Destroyed by Cyclone in
Mississippi.
Heavy and Continued Rain Storms in
That State Prove Very Destruct-
i've to Railroads,

New ORLEANS, March IA Pickens,
Miss, special says the town has been iso-
lated since last Saturday, when the last
train passed north. Continued rains since
Thursday night have raised the water in
Big Black river higher than ever known,
and it is still rising rapidly. The Illinois
Central railroad track is lifted bodily
from its bed and deposited in the
ditch for miles below and above here, and
the embankment swept away. Incalculable
damage has been done by the water. A
cyclone passed over that place last Saturday
morning without doing any damage, drop
ping over in Madison county, where it
caused great destruction Of life and prop
erty. 1t passed from there into Alfalfa
county, near Newport, where houses were
blown down and four negroes killed.
Quitman, Miss, special says the most
unprecedented rainfall in that section for
the past week has caused a general treshet
and the cessation of traffic on railroads.
At Enterprise. Miss, the Mobile & Ohio
and New Orleans and Northwestern rail-
roads are submerged for long distances and
passage either way is impossible. The
town Of Enterprise is inundated to a large
extent, the water flowing through the
streets with the velocity of river and in
many instances coming in the stores. The
flood has no parallel save in the mcmora-
bic year OF 1871. 1t will perhaps be two
days before traffic will be resumed
FRUIT DESTROYED.
The freeze on Feb. 26 did considerable
damage to the prospective fruit crops in
this section. On Saturday afternoon large
hail tell for a few minutes, and Satur-
day night the rain fell in
torrents Tor several hours. caus-
ing greater damage by wash outs
and Overlooking lowlanCis than had been
done in many years. Several large grawers
had their tomato plant beds completely
washed away and many Others have suf-
fered damage. Last night there was an
other freeze this time preceded by
rain, which finished up the peach blossoms
and very few peaches. if any, will be pro-
duced this season. Last year the peach
crop was lost by freeze on March l. The
above noted facts will apply with equal
force to large number Of market gardens
along the line OF the Illinois Central rail-
way within a hundred miles OF New Or
leans.

The Hunters Joke,

Two localsportsmen put up good
job on a companion. When the three
went cunning the two took along an
old stuffed owl, keeping it hidden
under the wagon seat, and during the
afternoon they managed to get sepa-
rated from their victim. They wired
the owl securely to the limb OF a tree,
then regained their companion, and
ali three started homeward. Near the
edge of the woods, close by the bogus
owl, the two discharged their guns at
pretended game so as not to be ex-
pected to fire at the owl. They re-
marked that they wouldn't load
again, they we're so near out. The
innocent gunner espied the owl the
moment they arrived in the vi
entity, and began blazing away at a
hundred yards distance.
After the fourth shot, fired in fever
lsh haste, he called to the others to
fire also. Don't you see the blamed
buzzard's asleep, and he won't wake
till he's hit in a vitalspot? Hemight
get away while I was loading! An
owl as big as that is worth a dozen
partridges!' But the friends assured
him of their confidence that he would
bring him down at last, that it was
his bird, and they would get no glory
IN simply assisting at the death.
This seemed to inspire him with new
energy, and the shots increased in
frequency, and a terrible lombard
ment was carried on against the
body of that owl. Finally the bird
staggered a moment and then drop
ped over, but still chung to the limb
with his feet and hung head down.
Hes got the toughest hold on life
OF any bird [ ever shot!'' pulled the
almost exhausted hunter. I'll soon
put him out of his misery" and ad-
vancing to within fifty or sixty feet
of the owl he fired the final shot,
which had the effect to blow the
stuffed creatures head off and to
scatter several quarts of sawdust in
all directions. 1t was then that there
flashed upon the senses of the deluded
gunner that g, cruel hoax had been
played upon him. And this feeling
was confirmed when he saw his two
companions rolling in the grass and
yelling with laughter. -Springfeld

Not A Vast Cemetarv,

Again and again this old poeti,
fancy of the earth as one great GENE
tary buried several times deep with
dead men and women and children
has been refuted by figures. But
great is error and will prevail, unless
the truth be we'll and steadily upheld.
The population of the earth is now
about 1,500,0OO,OOO. Suppose the
human race to have existed for 5000
years and to have been always as
great as now. In 5000 years you
have sixty centuries. In each CEN
fury you may count three genera
tions of mankind, or 1SOgenerations
in all, each being a generation of
100000. Now lay out cemetery
for one generation. 1t will be a huge
estimate to give to every man.
woman and child a grave 5x2 feet, or
ten square feet. You want for your
graveyard, then, 15,OOO,OOO,OOO
square feet fground. A So are
mile contains something less than
28,OOO,O0O square feet.
You want, then, graveyard not
fifty-five yards long by ten wide for
your whole generation. Now multi
ply this by $50 and you haye your
battle-ground for 6, OOOyears oman
kind. That is a strip of land 1,SOO
miles long by itty-five miles wide will
be ample. In other words a ceme-
terry containing 1OO,OOOsquare miles
would be sufficient tor the whole hui
man race to lie side by side. The es-
innate which have given you of
the size of each grave is very large.
A strictly correct estimate would re-
duce the size of the required cemetery
for more than one-half. But enor-
nous as it is, you could lay out your
battle-ground for all men who have
lived on earth, so that they could lay
side by side, in Arizona or in Califor-
MIA, or you could lay it out in Texas
large enough to accommodate the
race of 5000 years yet to come, all
sleeping in the soil of that one state
of this Union.

LOST ON THE SOUND
Rumored Sinking of Steamer vii
All on Board

kumored Sinking of Steamer With
All on Board
SEATTLE, Wash, March lit is rumored
here tonight that the steamer Buckeve
went down in the sound between Edmunds
and Apple Tree cove, with twenty passeu-
gers, last night. The lumor cannot be con-
hrmed, as there is no telephone communi-
cation with Edmunds, and the place cannot
be reached tonight.
The story is that the Buckeye, which is q
small steamer, went into Edmunds yester-
day Loaded with cabbages and other market
vegetables, The captain invited partv to
60 with him on trip across the sound
About twenty, the majority being gentle
men, accepted the invitation. The hoat
had reached the middle OF the sound abont
DUSK, when storm came up. For an hour
or more there was a heavy gale.
"A grader on the Great Northern near Ed
munds Is reported as saying he saw light
bobblng on the water for ali hour or so and
then disappear. The boat did not return
to Edmunds last night, and this morning
near that place the shore was covered with
cabbages and wreckage. This story was
brought by the steamer Idaho, which
touched at Edmunds this morning
