A cold drilling rain set in this
morning about $50 O'Clock and
continued throughout the greater
portion of the day. However, but
little water fell and unless the rain
was general at Eeadwaters, 1t will
cause the river to swell only
slightly.
FLOOD BULLETIN.-In event OF
a flood, we have made arrange
ments with friends up the river, to
send frequent bulletins. These you
will find conspicuously displayed

Mrs. Mary Ankrom, OF Kidwell,
this county, requests us to say that
she has sold $4,000 worth of butter
since October the first to February
the first, besides what butter they
used for their home consumption.
And we can assure our readers 1t
was all good butter.
The shore Ice on the opposite
side of the river from above Tai
bots bar broke loose this morn
Ing and swung out into the
middle of the river where 1t has
been hanging all day and will not
move from Its moorings until we
have more water.
DR.. George S. Wells and family
expect to leave one day this week
for Floriday where they will re-
main a month or six weeks. One
of the doctors children Is not en-
ljoying good health and he Is going
to try a change of climate for the
sick child. The many friends of
the family hope the trip will restore
the child to Its usual good health.
A Republican lawyer told us last
night that In his judgment our
present clerk of the circuit court,
| J. G. May6eld, Is the best circuit
court clerk we have ever had and
that not to elect him again would
be almost a calamity to the people
of the county. He says he Is
good penman, prompt and accurate
III his work and kind, genial and
accommodating to everybody. We
heartily endorse all of this.
The towboat Tornado came down
about noon today to the city from
the foot of Paden's island. where it
and some FIVE other steamers are
moored. for supplies. The boat
blew her whistle a number of times
just previous to reaching the wharf,
which attracted a large number of
curious people to the river bank.
Doubtless fnany were of the opin
lon the Ice had started. The shore
Ice on the Ohio side, extending
from the Russell run north for
quite distance, has swung out In
to the river, but there will have to
be more water come before 1t moves
any further. The river has only
raised about 9 inches here since
Saturday.
The claim of other cough medi-
cines to be as good as Chamber
lain's are effectually set at rest In
the following testimonial of Mr.. c.
D. Glass, an employee of Bartlett &
Dennis company, Gardiner, Me.
He says: Il had kept adding to a
cold and cough In the winter of
1897, trying every cough medicine
I heard of without permanent help,
until one day I was In the drug
store of Mr.. Houleman and he adj
vised me to try Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and offered to pay
back my money If was not cured.
My lungs and bronchial tubes were
very sore at this time, but I was
