81 never before saw brick streets
like these in Paducah," declared a
travelling man yesterday. The gen.
tleman can be assured. however, that
the brick streets are there. The only
thing the matter is that the city
keeps them covered with dust in dry
weather, mud in wet weather and
snow and ice in cold weather. They'll
probably last longer that way.

The River Outlook is as Black

The Gorges VIII Become Dangerous
Whenever There Is
Thaw.
AFTER ICE COMES HIGH WATER

The river outlook is just as
gloomy today as 1t was week ago.
and instead of the ice thinning out
In Tennessee river, the cold wealth
err has caused II to gorge in that
river, and new ice is daily forming.
This morning there was much
new ice floating in the Tennessee in
the Paducah harbor and while It was
thin It will get thick as the weather
continues cold. At Beach Creek the
ice has gorged and the Duffey and
Pavonia are behind the gorge and
unable to get out. The Russell Lord
came out yesterday and went back
t. day. reporting little prospect of
the Duffey getting out unless the
gorge gives away, which is unlikely
at this temperature, for several
days.
The Ohio is showing little heavy
ice because of gorges above, but a
great deal of new ice and few boats
are stirring. The Cowing is still
pegging away and the Clyde got
out of Tennessee river last night,
The LYDIA did not get away yesterday
to Tennessee river but waited until
today. The Charleston is also laying
here and will leave tonight for Ten
nessee river. These are the only
boats moving in the harbor here ex-
cept the tug Lizzie Archibold, of
Brookport. which did little towing
tbs morning.
The Victor will likely attempt to
90 to Joppa tomorrow with ties but
will not leave unless the ice has
thinned out.
The gauge here is still frozen and
the observer cannot tell the reading
A little fall likely occurred last
night, however. The wind is from
the east with clear weather. Tenn

1t seems that the troubles of the
river men are never to end. After
a long drouth with a stage of water
that tied up every boat from Pitts
burg to Cairo boating stage came
and was almost Immediately stopped
by the cold weather and ice.
II would now take several days of
warm weather to get the rivers free
from floating ice II we had the warm
weather, and then that ice which is
gorged would have to be reckoned
with. The gorges, when they break,
are likely to do great damage to
floating property, despite the precau-
tions that have been taken to get
all boats into safe harbors These
gorges Dire so packed aud frozen
with huge. sharp cakes Of ice that
they might not give way for days
after a thaw that would leave the
river otherwise free Of ice.
Then after the ice will come high
water. which II only as high as usual
will be high enough to submerge
many of the smaller landings, and
thus again work a hardship on the
steamboat owners, because 1t is as
hard to make money during very
high water as during very low wa
| ter.
River men are patient lot. how
ever, and they can always see
brighter days ahead, which is a trait
that serves them well these kind OF
times.
