Terrible Destitution Among

Mississippi Falling.
PINE BLUFF, Ark, May 24.-The desti.
tuition among the food sufferers, both
white and oolored, between Little Rock
n the mouth of the river, is appalling.
This city and vicinity is filled with
refugees. All along the river the cotton
crop is totally destroyed.
The government boat, Reese, has Just
arrived here from the upper river where
it supplied provisions contributed by
Little Rock citizens TO 1900 half-starv-
ing families at different land
ings. Hundreds of people were taken
on board the boat and transferred to dry
places.
At Eagles Landing 100 people were
found living in three houses. Two men
were seen drowning, and four were res
cued from house-tops, where they had
found refuge hours previously.
A report reached here last night
from the government steamer Wichita,
sent with with provisions by the
Pine Bluff citizens, that $50 people were
rescued from their perilous positions and
fed.
The town of Auburn is flooded owing
to the break in the Bronson levee

New ORLEANS, La, May PA disas-
trous break has occurred in the levee at
the Hester Plantation in the Parish of
St. James, one of the largest sugar plan
feet wide and there is scant hope Of clos
ing it. 1t is located thirty-flve miles
below the celebrated Mira crevasse of
1890, and the chances are thai the dam
ages will be very heavy. The plantation
on which the break occurred is one of
the finest for it's size in the State. At
the Gypsy Plantation, which cannot be
closed, and the Hester place, the Missis-
sippi Valley road has been forced to make
other arrangements for the transaction of
its business. The Hester levee was the
third largest in the State, and was re-
garded as one of the best pieces of levee
engineering in Louisiana.
OTTUMwA, Ia, May "a. Fifty armed
citizens cut the levee at this point yes
terday to W their property from de-
struction which they judged would
otherwise follow from the increasing
flood. The Water Company Superin-
tendent tried to prevent the cutting but
he had to withdrawn at the point of u

AGRICULTURAL chemists estimate the

to 767 pounds of wheat bran.
FROST has a variety of effects upon

fuence eggs will burst, apples contract
and potatoes will turn black.

vegetable has a temperature of one de.
