THE Statesville Landmork thinks it
curious that in these days of extreme
drought the lowlands are shoe deep in
water and the mill ponds are filing up.
1t is easily explained. The moisture
comes from the sap that runs out of the

The water of the Mississippi river is
said TO be lower now than it has ever
been. Steamboat traffic is practically
suspended as far south as Cairo, and
there is hardly enough water to float the
ferries between st. Louis and the Illinois
shore. What makes the latter fact even
more startling is that at st. Louis there
are not now, as at one time, two chan
nels, the eastern one having been closed
and all the water turned into the western.
All over the Mississippi valley, too, there
is a gradual subsistence of the water level
on the ground, this condition affecting
the supply in the surface streams as well
as that drawn from wells.

II was a decidedly stormy Interview and the
Rev Leonard did not know which way TO turn
TO escape the cross fire of scathing questions

His first excuse was that 1t was all a joke.
He said that he had never before been inter
