GUNBOATS COMING.

1t is now definitely settled that
the gunboat Nashville and two
torpedo boat destroyers will pass
Hickman sometime this month,
enroute to st = Louis, the date Of
which will be given by the Cou-
rier later. They will remain at
st. Louis as long as the stage of
water permits, possibly until the
fall.
The torpedo boat destroyers
are to be of the newest designs
which are represented i'm the ma
w. They are at once the swift
est and most beautiful craft
afloat, and will admirably typify
the kind of war vessel now figur-
ing so prominently in the Russo
Japanese war. Two hundred
and forty-eight feet long and but
twenty three feet wide, they po-
sess lines as delicately curved as
those characterizing a cup-de-
Tending yacht. Their draft is
but six feet, so that little trouble
will be experienced in steamihg
them up the river. Though so
slender that they are almost ar
row like in their appearance.
their machinery is more power
full than that of the heaviest
ships of the line. Their engines
exert $500 horsepower and drive
them through the water at a max
imum of thirty .knots-about
thirty-four miles an hour.

VOLUME XXXIX, NO. 9
THE RIVER.

The riyer,has been rising dur
ing the past two weeks, and is
now at a stage within very few
feet of the highest point reached
last spring. According TO the
government report no relief can
be looked for for two or three
days yet. The Mississippi is ris-
Ing aud will continue to rise,
while the Tennessee, Cumber-
land and Missouri are falling,
and stand in the Ohio for Ev-
ansville is forecasted for to-day,
'while it will be two days before
the crest reaches Paducah.
The government forecast, re-
ceiyed here yesterday says: The
river will continue to rise at Ev-
ansville during the next II to "a
hours, come to stand. then fall.
AT Paducah it will continue to
rise at much decreased rate
during the next two days The
maximum stage at Padueah will
probably be as high as 41.5 or AZ
feet. AT Cairo the rise will con-
tinue for at least four days. The
rate of rise will fall Of materially
during the next "a hours. The
crest stage at Cairo will probably
be between AZ and 4S feet. How
ever, general rains are indicated
for this section during the next
"a to 36 hours, and if heavy the
maximum stage at Cairo may ex-
ceed As feet. The Mississippi
between Chester and Cairo will
continue to rise for the next four
days. The Tennessee river
is now falling and will continue
to fall.
The lower portions of West
Hickman are now under water.
aud it is thought that it will be
flooded before the river comes to
il stand. Sc far the railroad is
intact, and at the depot it is
thought that there will not be
sufficient warer to cause them to
move to East Hickman, as was
the case last spring. The great
est damage will be done in
West Hickman, which was
wholly unprepared for the inva-
sion, Every inch rise now puts
that portion of town lying under
the hill SO much deeper under
swater, and people will have to
use skiffs to get to and from their
homes.
Great interest is necessarily
manifested in the river and it is
closely watched by all. In the
most authentic sources it is be-
lieved that the water will not
i reach point equalin height to
the rise of last spring.
