for less than he asked, why did he not

that merchant reliable? Can you afford
to risk his Judgment? He certainly
takes QUITE A LOAD on his Shout

that way. We guarantee you that you

THE SOUTHERN FLOODS.
The Mississippi Falling at Memphis, Bu
Rising at Other Places.

Rising at Other Places.
Memphis. March 22.-For the first
time in many weeks the Mississippi
river is reported falling at Memphis,
the gauge reading 81 feet, against 371
yesterday. Several breaks in the levee
are known to have occurred between
Osceola. Ark, and Memphis, and the
fall of the river is attributed to this
crevasse. The break at Sans Souci is
widening, and the mad rush of the
waters through the opening can be
heard for miles Three additional
breaks, all near Sans Souci are re-
ported, and the sufferings of the people
in eastern Arkansas will surely be
greatly intensified
A dispatch from Vicksburg says that
the reported crevasse at Modoc Ark,
near Helena, is confirmed by officers
of the steamer State of Kansas and by
dispatches. The levee at Modoc has
been considered in q hopeless condi-
ton for several days. The water will
run into the White river very fast, and
will find its way back into the Missis-
sippl in a day or two. Levee men say
the effect will be merely temporary,
but the decline Is reported at from one
to four inches along the Coahmi county,
Mississippi, levee, where the struggle
against the high water has been most
desperate. The Kansas also reported
breaks lower down, but these are
probably protection levees.
The river at Vicksburg has risen
inches, and registers As feet inches.
At Greenville the river continues to

In That State Alone the Damage to Prop

Four Hundred Thousand Dollars-The

Four Hundred Thousand Dollars-The
Mississippi Receding at Memphis.
Milwaukee. Wis, March 22.-Reports
received from all portions of the state
show that the floods have subsidized at
all points except in the Milwaukee
river just north Of this city. In the
latter river the water is still running
at a high rate. Estimates of the losses
range all the way from S2Oo,O to $780,
900.
In the Milwaukee river the ice Jam
which formed Saturday at Sauxville
loosened yesterday and let down the
immense volume of water which had
banked up in the rear of 1t. The water
carried the ice down to the crest of
the Milwaukee dam at North avenue.
There it was stopped by the pillars Of
the footbridge over the dam. 1t piled
In solid mass against these early in
the morning, and kept accommodating
all day. About o'clock in the after
noon the jagged cakes of Ice were piled
up against the rail of the footbridge
and extended for a mile back of 1t
into the river, which was constantly
getting higher.
The ice loosened the stone pillars
which supported the foot bridge and
carried away rs feet of the structure.
This left an opening for the waters,
and In short time the immense field
of ice had thrown itself into the river
below the dam. This rose rapidly,
and 1t is rushing through the city at
rate which has not been experienced
since the breaking Of the dam. 10
years ago The river is within two
feet of the height which it reached at
that time, and the water is backing up
in the sewers of the down town dis
tricts! The water at the head of the
river has subsidized some, and 1t Is
thought that the worst Is over here.

Valley Transformed Into a Sea

Omaha, March %. - The Missouri
river has risen less than a foot at
Omaha and the ice is running very
freely and not gorging as frequently
as was feared, The tributaries in thu
state are doing the most damage. AT
Norfolk the north fork Of the Elkhorn
river has overllown its banks, and the
valley between there and Pierce IL one
vast sea of water, The river has been
rising for several days, and early yes
terday morning the fire whistle was
blown to awaken people. so that they
might rescue stock and save other
property from the damage of food.
The southeast portion of the residence
district Is under water At Fremont
the Platte is subsidIng, and Is now
within Its banks.
