EDITOR BULLETIN:-More than
once the good people of Bolivar
have entwined themselves in my
hearts affections by some kind to-
ken of interest and good will for
my we'll being. Over and again I'M
selfish acts have called forth my
deepest gratitude; but liberality it.
self stood abashed last Saturday,
April 90, when our generous Coun-
ty Trustee, r. n. Mitchell, took
me aside and placed in my hands,
a large cash gift, the volunteer do
nations of a goodly number of Boil
vars royal citizens, who thus gave
additional endorsement to my recent
efforts for the cause of temperance.
l thank them most sincerely, and
accept the gift in the spirit in which
it is offered, trusting that may use
the same in way that will accom-
plish the greatest good, and cherish
their fondest memory.
While | am grateful for substan
tial favors from the men, am none
the less thankful for the expressions
of approval and encouragement from
the good women. May God bless
them ali richly. j. F. RAY.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, April %.
Apprehension as to the out
come of the rise in the Ohio,
the Mississippi, the Cumber-
land and the Tennessee riv-
ers, is now general among
the people who live along the
river between Cairo and
Memphis, and those further
back from the banks below
here. Conditions are in such
shape that it is almost impos-
sible to make anything like
accurate predictions as to
how high the stage of the
river will be at Memphis, and
it will not be possible to do
this until after the crest has
passed Cincinnati.
Information comes from
above here that preparations
are being made by those
planters who have lands be-
tween the levees and the riv-
er to protect themselves from
serious damage. Their stock
will all be out of the way and
few of them are figuring on
less than 80 feet of water.
