Big Horn basin. Mr.. Cody is president
Of the company that owns 250,Oo0 acres
of land in that section and was on his
way out there to direct operations for
the coming season. The enter OF tho
colony is the small but thriving town
of Cody. which contains Il fine Touring
mill, a bank, 4 general store and sew
eral other thriving business institu-
lions. An irrigation canal is now on
structipg that will cover the basin for
n length of 125 miles and carry all the
water OF the large stream that has its
source in the mountains. The canal
is 80 feet wide on the bottom and is
calculated to irrigatc 1863, 900 acres of
land. a colony of substantial farmers
from the state of Illinois settled in the
basin fast yem. and they are fast be-
coming prosperous. Although it was
late when they arrived on the ground
last year, they harvested a fair crop.
One farmer who planted oats on June

The soil is very rich aud is at least is
feet deep. Another colony will go in
to the basin in February Dr. March
which will consist of 800 farmers and
their families. They are for the most
part either Americans or Scotch aud
are comparatively well to do, none of
them having less than 81 1000 in ready

have already surveyed lines into the
basin and the prospects for their be-

very bright.

Sturcis is the Winncr.

Pierre, Jam. pa decision handed
down by the supreme court Saturday is
Of particular interest to the Black Hills,
1t was in the case of Farwell VS.. the
Sturgis Water company. The main point
in the case is raised by the settlers
along n small stream known as Alkali
creek, who sue for damages claimed to
have been caused by diverting from the
creek the water from a spring known as
Davenport Springs. The water from
this spring was retained by dams and is
used to supply the city of Sturgls and
Fort Meade with water. The defense
was that the formation was such that
the water from the Davenport spring
did not increase the supply of water in
the creek. and no damage is done by
taking the water for the use OF the city.
Tho testimony of DR.. McGillicuddy, dean
Of the School OF Mines, and OF Prof.
Smith, professor of geology in that
school, Is 70 the effect that the spring
has it's origin in tfachyte and flows for
a short distance over hat formation,
when it reache; n cavernous limestone
formation and disappears, and that in
such formation could not again come to
the surface anywhere west of the Mis-
souri, river. The court reverses the find
ing oi the losTef ccaT; and holds for TIC
city.

10 Make the Stock Growers
Some Trouble,

Denver. Jan. 24.-There are pros
poets of serious trouble on the occa-
sion of the barbecue to be given in
connection with the stock growers
convention January 27. The commits
tee having the affair in charge have
secured buffalo. elk, antelope, noun
tain sheep and quail for the spread.
Killing and serving of all these ami
mails at this season Of the year is con-
trary to the Colorado law and the
gamo warden has announced in most
emphatic terms that any attempt to
carry out the program will result in
cQnfiscation of the game and arrest of
all those responsible in the matter,
even if he has to call out the state
militia. The management of the bar
bccue, on the other hand. declare the
game is already in cold storage and
will be served regardless of the game
warden. Many of the members of the
committee arc veil kiiowa ~sttochkinei
who have regulations for determine
ton, and it is freely predicted the
game warden will meet very rough
"reatment if he attempts to interfere
With the program arranged.

SOUTH DAKOTA

According to u recent London esti-
mate only about 25,00D American tour
lists visited the English capital in the
cours Of the past season and this is
regarded as a very poor catch. The
average tourist from the states" we
nre told, scatters about $1,000 while
making a three months trip in En-
rope. This multiplied by $4,000, makes
s22:5 900, 900, and of that amount. it is
believed, London receives at least two
Hfths. Paris gets more American
money than London does, not because
more Americans go there, but because
the French capital wins the trade of
all the women, arid this is both larger
md more profitable than that of the
men, to whose needs and tastes the
london shops more especially cater.

Memphis, Tenn, Jan. 25.-TAe Mis-

leans is rising rapidly, and there is
enough water in sight TO send it above
the danger line from Cairo to Vicks-
burg. The water rose a foot here yes
ierday, aud in four days it will prob
ably be above the danger line. At
Cairo the danger line has been passed,
with a further heavy Hood coming
down the Ohio, Cumberland and Ten
ressce. Two %crevassesa i'll the leveesiin
the Mississippi delta are not yet COM
pleted, and it will not be possible to
ill them within ten days. The situa-
tion is regarded as extremely grave,
and unless there is a general free=e
throughout the north Mississippi and
Ohio valleys, a repetition of last years
food is looked for.
Helena. Ark, Jan. 25.-The river situ-
alton at this place is beginning to look
alarming, owing to the rapid rise, the
prospect of more water and the unin-
proved conditions of the leyees. AT
the Williamson place, about three
miles below here, where the crevasse
occurred last spring, there is a ANAL
opening Of about 200 feet. through
which the water will come if the river
gets five feet higher, and this much is
predicted by Observer Miles. A great
deal of cotton will be ruinca, as there
is still Il great deal i'll the fields IN

rate. This flood has about 100 miles to
travel to Cincinnati. At all West Vir-
ginia points rising floods are reported.
The same story ms from tributaries
In Pennsylvania and Ohio. This makes
1t sure h a the maximum here, will be
not less than SO feet, and at the same
time gives ground for apprehension OF
T. great flood, with So and a. possibility
Of IS feet. Either of the latter two
stages would render the Grand Central
depot in accessible for trains and
would prevent all large boats from

below Cincinnati are all pouring in
their floods, which will hold the water
here at very near the present stage, till
the rise from Portsmouth reaches here
