j. O. Spence, the Cherokee
street barber, has lately fitted up
a nice bath room and installed two
elegant porcelain lined bath tubs
in connection with his shop, which
will prove a great convenience to
his customers. 1t may be said in
this connection that Spence's bar
Der shop is very popular place
for gentlemen who need the SER
vice of a tonsorial artist. He is
careful to preserve a nice, orderly
place and gentlemen who go there
enjoy that immunity from ex-
plosions of profanity and obscene
anecdotes which some individuals
too often regard as indispensable
features of such resorts.

The Easy Pill.

DeWitt's Little Early Risers do not
grippe nor weaken the system. They
cure biliousness, jaundice, constipa-
ton and inactive Iivers, by arousing
the secretions, moving the bowels
gently, yet effectually, and giving such
tone and strength to the glands of the
stomach, liver and bowels that the
cause of the trouble is removed entire
ly. These famous little pills exert q
decided tonic effect upon the organs
involved, and if their use is continued
for few days there will be no return
of the trouble. G. E. Grafton Drug Co

HOPEFUL FEATURES IN
THE FLOOD SITUATION
Crisis Believed at Memphis to Have
Passed-Water Falling.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, March 21.-To-
night there are many hopeful features
in the flood in the immediate territory
about this city, and the officers Of the
levee boards and river men are ex-
pressing more satisfaction with the
conditions that now prevail than has
been INDUCED In at any time since the
flood first assumed serious proportions.
The gauge shows 1877 feet, and falling.
which is g. decline of 4 since last night
at 6 o'clock, when the water became
stationary on the gauge. It is now
believed that the fall Is due to nat
ural conditions rather than to the
drainage of water from the Mississippi
by the breaks in the Arkansas levees
to the north. 1t Is currently believed
that the fall win continue without
check and that the crisis is passed.

levee board, this afternoon succeeded
in sending a large barge through the
crevasse at Trfces' landing for the

tory and render assistance,

patch 480 common tents and twenty
hospital tents to Memphis, and 80
tents and 10 hospital tents to Marion,
Ark.
OCONTO, Wis, March 81. = The
Oconto river Is on a rampage and there
is imminent danger of a disastrous
flood. The recent incessant rains have
swollen all the small tributary streams,
with the result that the water Is high
er than it has been for fifteen years.
Several portions Of the city are under
water and the river Is steadily rising
an inch an hour. 1t is feared that the
mill companies will not be able to con-
troll the logs which are banked here, as
some of the booms have already gone
out. In case these logs go down the
bridges will be badly damaged, If not
swept away.
