NEW ORLEANS, April 12.-The river has
reached the eighteen-foot mark, and it is
expected to go higher still. These caIcula-

condition of affairs, and the levee officials

was a rumor that crevasse had occurred
in the river in Plaquemine parish "a a point

In sections of the city levee system the ap-

are low by comparison with other localities
there is some considerable wave wash but
a substantial protection embankment of
sacked dirt has been put into position to

ALPINE HERDSWOMEN.
They Wore Trousers Before Bloomer'
Were Heard OF.

They Wore Trousers Before Boomers
Were Heard OF.
Long before the days of boomers
women on the higher level Of the Alps
wore trousers, and no one thought any
thing about it. The Alpine women wear
the bifurcated garment for utility and
not for beauty. as one may judge if he
or she has seen one of these girls. Come
illness and the Alpine herdswomen are
far apart. but the style Of the garments
they wear and the hard life that is theirs
are at the root of the trouble.
These women have little Of the grace
and agility seen il the maidens of Nor
way. They will leap across chasms with
n%onchalance, but there is nothing wild
and free about their "'c"~ = While
she is talking to you the me herds
woman is quite apt TO thrast oat all un-
calmly leg, plant a heavy boot Oh the
neck of a goat and stand thus while she
converses.
With the exception Of the blacks who
endure a life Of hanger in the interior
Of Africa there is hardly any one IL the
world who fares so badly as the herds
men and ONE Of Switzerland. They
cannot affort to eat the berries they find
on the mountain side. and they cannot
afford to drink the milk supplied By
their hocks. Their fare is meat that has
been dried, sailed and turned into un-
savory leather, rye bread that is like
blackened cinders and cabbage stalks in
pickle, that contain about as much nutri-
ment as a walking stick. Hungry as the
herdswoman may be on her return home,
she must eat but sparingly Of these
dainties, for fear they should come to an
end before another trip to the valley can
be made.
These women breakfast at 2 in the
morning and hen answer the response
of the cattle lowing at the door of the
chalet, begging to be attended to and
driven up TO some favorite Alp. They
eat again some II or ii hours later,
when the weary tramp back to the
chalet is about to begin. Between times,
with sickles, they reap the long, coarse
Alpine grasses, which are to serve as
food for the cattle during the winter.
This grass is bound into bundles as
large as the women themselves and car
ried on their backs down to the home
steads. The winter firewood is brought
the same way. The chalet, the home of
one Of these women, is the most pictur.
esque Of any PEASANTS dwelling place,
but inside it is not desirable. 1t is usu-
ally perched on the crags of the Ober-
land and is dark, for the windows are
constructed not so much to admit light
as to keep out the heavy SHOWS Of the
winter. In II corner is a low, broad
platform with sacks of hay and a cou-
pie of blankets upon it. The less luxuri-
Gus dispense with the blankets and the
herdswoman usually goes to rest in the
same attire she wore during the day. In
the autumn, when the cattle are driven
down for the last time, a dance is given
by the herdsmen and the women, and on
these occasions the girls exchange theft
trousers for the usual skirt.--Kansas

arrangements for producing an original
comedy by Augustus Thomas. The au-
thor will come out to superintend the pro-

Charles Frohman holds the American
rights of the piece, and Charles Hawlrey
has secured the English rights. Writing
to Mr.. Frawley Augustus Thomas says:
II do not know Mr.. Hawtrey's reason for
not doing the piece before this. Mr.. Froh-

fusal of the leading people OF his theatef
to play in support of the comic who has
easily the star part of the piece. l think
