MISSOURI RIVER STEAMBOATS,.

who rode in the boats in the long ago
are very few now. Their memories are
better, however, than those of the
present generation. They can still
call the names of the boats. their cap

What the Missouri river commerce

threaten the city with destruction.
All the buildings were frame and the
flames famed by II strong wind, swept

TaDidity. The local fire department
was unable to cope with the flames
and it was necessary to send to Phila
