whenever / hear Of break in the
levee down in my district, know that
nine chances to one crawfish have
caused it. The assertion may sound
slightly exaggerated, but it is fact
nevertheless that the troublesome little
crawfish work more danger to the le-
wees than does the water. On big rise,
when the bed of the river is stretched
from embankment to embankment, the
craYfish burrow into the levees and
live there in the moist earth. They
multiply faster than maggots and loosen
up the earth worse than moles.
"The levee may be completely sodded
with grass and you see no external evil
aence of the damage going on within,
but when the next big rise comes you
will see it. have frequently known
the water to break through the levee two
or three feet from the top, and you can at
tribute it to nothing but the destructive
work of crawHsh. This was particular
ly true of the break at Offut's in 1889,
when a portion Of the town of Green
vile was submerged. The builder of
the levee in the future will have to take
into account the crawfish as one of his
most stubborn foes. st. Louis Globe

A SHIP TO RUN ON ROLLERS.
The Ocean Steamer Proposed by n
French Engineer.

In these days of revolutionary projects in
matters mechanical and scientific unusual
engineering exploits have lost much OF their
tendency to create surprise, says the New
York Press. Still, that sensation may he
produced in a mild degree by the latest
scheme Of ocean transportation which has
reached us from France ana which has NJ
Bazin. not unknown in engineering circles.
for its author.
NJ Bazin proposes. in brief TO build an
Auanuc liner on eight rollers. with the view
OF securing speed much higher than any
thus far attained, arguing that the wheels
or rollers on which the vessel is to rest Will
so greatly diminish the resistance orrered
by the waves that thirty Knots an hour
VIII De easily Within the bounds of POSSIBLE
lty, and VIII enable the passage from SOUTH
ampton or Liverpool TO New york 10 b.
made in four days.
The rollers are to enter the water to q
depth or about twenty-six feet ana reyolve
within a platform placed about twenty-four
1eet above the water, so that there will be
a rolling instead of a gliding body as IN the
case of ordinary ships The rollers nre-
sumaply are TO be worked by engines 70
secure propulsion.
NJ. Bazin claims to have settled bv ex-
pertinent that the stability OF the roller TYNE
VI vessel Is at least as great that OF the
ordinary type, and believes that the CON-
struction Of his design OF ship will be nncn
less costly than that of the usual descrtn-
ton.
According to French report IL is pronosea
10 put NJ Bazin's plans to a practical fest
py constructing vessel about 4oo feet long
ana or about ninety feet BEAM with rollers
seVenty-f1ve in diameter and thirty-fiye feet
WIDE The latter are to make twenty-two
revolutions per minute

TO STOP THE RIOTING.
Six Thousand More Italian Troops
s Ordered to Sicily.

t Ordered to sicily.
The situation in Sicily is regarded with
increasing alarm by the government Gen.
Mocenni, war minister. has called under
arms another section of the class of 1869.
This section is 5000 strong. The troops
now in Sicily number 10000. Two hundred
reserve officers also are reported to have
been called out for service.
Gen Nora di Lavriano. who was ordered
to Palermo. to take Signor Colmayer's place
as prefect yesterday. sent the dispatch
which determined Gen. Mocenni to call out
more troops He informed the government
that the Fasci Del Lavoratori, the most
powerful secret society in Sicily, has thous-
ands of firearms and MUCK ammunition
ready for q general outbreak. Gen. Nora
di Lavriano will be ordered to seize these
war materials soon possible. 1t is
said that Premier Giolitti had all the in
formation contained i'm this dispatch, but
ignored it. as he believed the situation in
Sicily was not SO bad as reported. The pres
ent cabinet. however. will make every effort
to enforce rigorous measures against Sicil-
ian secret societies of revolutionary tenden-
cies. and the plenary powers granted to the
rev prefect of Palermo indicate Premier
Crispi's purpose to suppress the Fasci and
kindred societies very shortly.
The heavy snow storms in several parts of
Italy have interfered greatly with tele-
graphic communication, and the additional
details of the riots in the smaller Sicilian
towns within the last two days have come
in slowly. Last evening dispatch from
Caitanisetta stated that eight men were
killed in the riots at Pietra-Persia Tuesday
morning.
The peasants in the mob tried to disarm
the soldiers, who were compelled to fire at
close quarters to protect themselves. In
the village of Gibellna, province of Ira
pani, the anti-tax rioters burned several
houses yesterday. A notorious usurer, who
tried to pacify them, was shot dead. The
military charged the mob twice, but without
effect, and then fired, killing five and
wounding nine ten more.
