C,RT-TuERsvILLE, Mo, March "a
The river continues to rise and weaken
the Ieyees. The great encouragement
nj three DAYS ago Is departing, as Gay
arter day the government reports bull
letin the rise from Cairo up The stu
a+ion here Is serIous. \ terrible wind
Storm and three-sixteenths rainfall has
occurred and the wind blew gale.
The situation just across the rlYer
grows more alarming every day. The
loss of hfe. of property and or livestock
Is frightful.
Even with the relief tug many have
lost all their earthly possessions and
barely escaped with their lives and
families. On one little sawdust heap,
half an acre squire, near Ilgar IalI
mill. on the Tennessee side, were
crowded 20 persons and hundred head
OF livestock, all of which were picked
MP by one of the tugs, the \. X. ham,
and carried to Dyersburg. The crevasse
lust below town Is more than LOO feet
wide. and the water is pouring into
the county. Contrary TO expectations,
this water is now driving families out
in the upper end of the county.
A guard shot a man below, on the
Arkansas leyee. the other night, while
in the act of cutting the levee, and
threw his carcass INTO the river. NO
one knew his name and no one cared
If the river rises six inches more IT will
sweep over the top of three miles of
levee north of here.
MEMPHIS, March 24.-The end of the
flood is not vet discernible. The gauge
registered 36.9 feet, or One-ftth Of a
foot below the highest point reached.
This drop has not made any change for
the better in the situation. Indeed, II
Is caused by a decided change for the
worse in the Arkansas districts which

For BOYS to Remember.

A boy can have no higher nor more
worthy ambition than to become atrue
Christian gentleman. The following
from an exchange is well worth re-
membering, and in following out it's
suggestions every boy will the better
realize his idea
Roughness, clustering, and even
fool-hardiness are not manliness. The
firmest and most courageous men have
usually been the gentlest.
Muscular strength is not health!
A brain crammed only with facts is
not necessarily wise one.
The labor impossible to the boy of
fourteen will be easy to the man of
twenty.
The best capital for a boy is not
money, but the love of work, simple
tastes, and heart loyal to his friends
and God.
