MISSISSIPPI GOING DOWN..
The Danger Point Now Below GreenviIIe
and Nearer the Delta Than Before.

The Danger Point Now Below GreenviIIe
and Nearer the Delta Than Before.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, April 1.-The food
situation in the Mississippi Delta, above
Greenville, is decidedly improved to
night. The half dozen crevasses on
the ArkaTsa a and Mississippi shores
between Helena and Greenville have
drawn an immense volume of water
out of the main channel, which is
spreading over the lowlands, but not
rapidly enough to cut off the escape of
the inhabitants of the low counties.
The river shows a decline from a
point below Helena to the Wayside
crevasse. The decline above Green
vile in many places is as great as ten
inches. The worst at Helena will be
over by Thursday.
The damage to the farming country
in the Delta cannot be estimated. Five
counties will be for the most part under
water for thirty days, and the main
line and branch lines of the Yazoo and
Mississippi Valley Road will have more
than 100 miles of track inundated.
Probably twenty railroad stations
and small towns are flooded to night,
among them being Gunnison, Rosedale,
Perthshire, Terrene, Phalia, Riverton,
Dahomy, Storm, Benoit, Beulah, Way.
side, LongWood, Refuge, saltwater,
Deeson and Australia.
But the danger is now to the south of
Greenville, and the levees from Way
side to the mouth of the river will be,
gin to feel the pressure of the move,
ment of water back into the channel
from the Delta, the White river coun-
try, and the st. Francis basin. A line
east and west on the water across
Rosedale would probably be fifty miles
long.
The Louisville and Nashville, and
Louisville, Chattanooga and ST. Louis
Railways ran trains in connection with
Nashville to night, after a cessation Of
over two weeks, due to the high water
in the Tennessee river.
The local Relief Committee this after
noon sent a steamboat carrying sup
plies to the St. Francis river country.
It is said that the restitution in the
territory to be covered is fearful, but
news of it did not reach Memphis until
to day.

The Ranger says three boys, rang
ing in age from 9 to 10 years, broke
into a store at Bryson City a few days
ego and stole $12 worth of goods and
g in cash. They are in jail and the
authorities are puzzled to know what
to do with them.
John Smith, 16 year old son of Mr..
J. s. Smith, near Albemarle, was fool
ing with a pistol Thursday. In some
way it was discharged, the ball strik-
ing his little brother Clarence, passing
through lear the heart. Doctors say
there is no chance for the boys re
covery.
We have had heavy frosts and plenty
of ice that reminded us of midwinter,
several mornings since March Goth.
Peaches, pears and plums have nearly
all been killed. The apple trees were
not far enough in bloom to be injured
very much, says the Hillsboro Oh
server.
One night last week the dwelling of
Mr.. T. N. Marshall, of Hadley town
ship, was broken into and robbed Of
$40 in money. The money was in a
trunk in a room in which no one was
sleeping, and the burglar, or burglars,
entered the room through a window
without awakening any of the family,
says the Chatham Record.
Last Wednesday week was the first
windy day Of March and it got in its
work. A friend informs us that there
were two houses in Bear Greek town
ship burned that day. One belonged
to MI. West Gilliland and was occu,
pied by Mr.. VIM. T. Kidd, and the
other was known as the Prince Smith
house near Providence, says the Chat
ham Citizen.
Mr.. F. @. Ikerd, of near Maiden,
was in the city Monday. He is one of
largest wheat growers. He has
sold about 1000 bushels of wheat of
last years crop, and has 100 acres
soWn in wheat now. He says some
wheat Is hurt by the freeze, and that
farmers in his section are about ready
to begin planting corn, says the
Hickory Mercury.
Mr.. A. B. Shaw lost an ele gant
watch charm about eight years ago.
The charm contained a photograph OF
his parents and was a present from his
mother. This, in addition to it's in
trinsic value, made him regret the loss
very much, but no searching could
find it. Much to Mr.. Shaw's surprise
and pleasure the charm was returned
to him last week by a friend who, re-
cognizing the monogram, bought it
from a wagner, to whom it had been
traded by the finder, says the Laurin-
burg Exchange.

MIR. watterson's Advice.

The Louisville Courier Journal thinks that
from the standpoint of craftsmanship it
would appear more desirable to take up and
arise upon the tariff bill. For example shall
the sugar refining company decide absolute
ly what shall go into the bill? Shall the po-
litical shepherds of Ohio have their way. or
shall they yield to the wool manufacturers?
Or shall compromise between the two be
arranged? All these and many other ques-
lions are in allegiance, while Senators wrange
over the duties on onyx or tartaric acid.
The system equals the pronunciation office

A Serious Accident on Board the
Monitor Puritan.


NEW YORK, July 2.-Thirty men
narrowly escaped death in the boiler
room of the monitor Puritan. The
Puritan is moored at the foot of the
main street, in Brooklyn navy yard,
and has been undergoing repairs to her
engine and boilers. The repairs had
been completed. They were putting on
the finishing touches at the time of the
explosion Orders had been given to
start the fire under the boilers and get
up steam, so that both the engines and
boilers and the improvements could
be given a thorough overhauling
Suddenly there was slight Kissing
sound of escaping steam in the room,
but the men continued to work. Then
a sharp report and flood of hot water
started them to their feet. In an in
slant the room was filed with steam
that was so dense the men could
scarcely see.
With the first burst of steam, Aug
ust Wilson, the boilermaker in charge,
ordered the men to get out of the
room. They CROPPED through the vapor,
and as they entered the companion
way, helped each other to reach the
ladders leading to the upper deck.
Wilson was the last one to get out of
the room.
The cause of the accident was found
to be the blowing out of the crown
sheet in one of the boilers on the for
ward starboard side of the vessel. 1t
was found the sheet had burst and
there was an opening in it about seven
inches long and one inch wide. 1t is a
miracle, the Puritan officers say, that
none of the men were killed, or greater
damage done to the vessel.
