Swallowing Ip u Village.

RichIand Republican Observer.
The early settler, had he been away
a number Of years, would scarcely
recognize or reconcile the ltichland
City Of today with the Richland city
Of the past. The change Is not only
in the deserted appearance Of the vii
lage but in its actual topography.
A representative OF The Republican
Observer, while AT that place few
days ago, was surprised TO see that
the rapid and ever changing current
Of the Wisconsin river has played
havoc with the land, swallowing
whole streets and blocks bordering on
it's sandy banks. The maps Of recent
years show that sixteen entire blocks
which in the early history Of the vii
lage were the site of residences and
business houses. are now in the bed Ol
the river. This encroachment Of tho
waters has been gradually going on
for a number Of years, and the resi-.
dents in IT, portion OF the village
have been compelled from time to time
to remove their houses farther back
from the river to prevent them from
being swept away.
