HOPEFIELD
 THREATENED
Rock Island. Officials Preparing to = Abandon Terminals = Precau.
 ? tiOns Taken.

:" Memphis, Jan. 2s.-confronted with sthe official prediction of the weat4e 4eri b3reau that the flood stage would probably be reached at Mem- phis, the levee situation assumed a more serious aspect today and pre- cautions were actively in progress thfoughout the territory of the St. Francis ,rfser,and- the first and second MississippNdfstricts to thwart, if pos- :sible, the crumbling of the embank- ments and to give quick attention to the first signs of break.
 Summoned by call announcing the prospective inundation of the Rock Island systems yards at Hope
 field Ark, General Superintendent H. M. Hallock of the Rock Island sys- tenn, arrived in Memphis from Little Rock and at once undertook prepara- tions for abandoning the terminal al that point as soon as the water should invade the freight district.
 1.-TWO more feet will drive us out of Hopefield," said MT. Hallock, "and II expect we shall succumb to the flood very shortly"

MISSISSIPPI
 OvERFL0WS Five Crevasses Reported in Levee Near New Orleans and Much Damage Has Resulted.
 
FISHERMEN SUFFER
Chief Danger in New Channel Form. ing-Condition at vfcksburg and Hopefield Near Memphis Is Alarm. ing.

New Orleans, Jan 3.-Seventy-five miles below New Orleans today five
 vrevasses appeared in the Mississippi
 levees, the breaks ranging from 20 , to 100 feet in width. The country threatened is settled by fishermen and oystermen accustomed to frequent ov-
 erflows and prepared at all times to save both themselves and their fami- lies with little hardship. An oyster
 canning factory at Neptune, landing
 in this district, is partly under water.
 Many miles of oyster beds will be ruined for the season by the fresh water.
 The breaking of the levees near the rivers mouth was expected, be- cause last September's hurricane
 brought in flood water from the
 gulf, which washed out the en- ! eankments so badly as to make per
 manent repairs impossible at this time. Nevertheless, attempts are being made to close the crevasses, 1 for there is always danger that in breaking from it's banks, the river may cut |. new channel to the gulf.
 The state board of engineers, hay ing in charge the levee system, an- nounces the rivers stage at 169
 today, which is nearly four feet un-
 der the high water of 1903. The
 engineers say there is no possibility
 of levee troubles here.

Wilmer- III Shields of this

Winner H. Shields of this city, formerly member of the Fifth
 Louisiana district levee board and
 secretary of the board for four years, says that there are 1000 acres of cultivated lands between Vicksburg, Miss, and the mouth of the Red river that are outside of the government levees. These lands are liable to overflow. MT. Shields has wagered that the gauge at Vicksburg will reach 5 feet by May 1, and he believes the levees will hold. This extreme height is pre- dicted on account of the levees con
 fining the water. ;.

ing from the value of the work Of wage earners, nor from the wortnl- ness of the callings embraced in the list. Every man of them merits what he earns, and the method of his earn ing, both as to usefulness and worth' ranks with any calling followed by man in a purely utilitarian field. We except the ministry and we except the ethical view of teaching the youth or the land; but while the public IS con- vinced that the preacher ol the Sospei and the teachers in the schools are pursuing the most exalted ana most important avocations known to hlah' the public takes it out in sentiment and leaves them to starye on worse than proper wages.
 With the ministry the pay is not so miserably poor as with the school teacher. These latter are beyond question squeezed to the most mln- nte end of the horn. They are truly the poor relations of the world and like the poor relation of the family do the heaviest and most important work about the house, and receive Tn return the scraps left over.
 The wonder is not that intelligence should seek the position of teacher, hut that there still continues able and devoted minds at work, developing and training the mental powers of Young America.
 There is no wonder, however, that Young America conceives ruling power to get money, honestly if pos sible, but get money. At an early stage it perceives the value of knoWl- edge and academic learning, but it also, readily comprehends the price the world puts upon these acquire ments per SC. 1t is made to under stand, by the ever present and living illustration in the person of the un- derpaid teacher before it, that want, and almost poverty, is the price of pursuing kIlOW leuSc lOl lto wv oelhN and with the view of imparting it to others.
 Young America learns that knoWl- edge is power, but that knowledge must first be converted into money by taking advantage of ignorance, not by enlightening it, ere this power is won. Young America learns that example is better than precept but it is the ex- ample of taking advantage in order to take profit for the example of the teacher in giving others the benefit of what is his brings him to the house doors of which are too flimsy to keep the wolf at bay.
 Young America will, therefore, con- tinue to take knowledge and give as little in return for it as he can get off with, and he will continue to get mon ey through the knowledge that takes advantage respecting this sort of knowledge and holding cheap that other kind which loses money because it uses itself to enlighten others.

Nassau, N. H., Jan. 23.-The Jew. ish colony of Sollkof Town was in. corporated today.

These figures are official In every case the figures are the minimum, the least amount which the union will al- low member to accept As a matter of fact, many workmen make more than the figures given, for overtime (any time over eight hours) is paid the regular rate; and work done on Sundays and holidays is paid for at double rates. The yearly rate is bas- ed on three hundred working days of eight hours each.
 In drawing the foregoing compar- ison there is no intention of detract.

Winner H. Shields Believes Missis- siDpi Will Reach j3 Feet on the Gauge at Vicksburg
 by May 1.

Natchez, Miss, Jan. 23.-Eighty thousand acres of rich cultivated lands are liable to be covered with water by the present rise in the Mississippi river. The local gauge at D. m., stood 43.4 feet, which is six-tenths below danger line. Considerable land outside the levees is now under water.

WAGES OF TEACHERS.
(From the Commercial Appeal.

(From the Commercial Appeal)
 Under the headline The Wages of Teachers one of the New York pa pers says:
 In some cases these figures are the minimum rates in the localities nam- ed; in other cases they are the aver age rate. The yearly rate is, in every case, the entire sum that teacher can earn in a year; there is no such thing as overtime for them, and they are employed only from seven to ten months year. In this respect they can be compared with some outdoor artists who cannot work the year round. As to places outside of New York, some allowance must be made for differences in the cost of living.

CHINA AND OPIUM.

Since the Russo-Japanes7 war, or really since the Boxer rising was duelled ari he aH.,l forces of Europe, -.Mrica and Japen made themselves felt in F~kin China has been steadily adopting western methods ans' reforms. Hundreds of for yOurg n.,. have been sent to Janan to .;hCy her military meth ods, as we'll as the application of western inventions, But of more value to China as nation than the adaptation of the veneer of civilization is the plan recently formulated for decreasing and ulti- mately prohibiting the use of opium which has degraded and kept so many of her people in the most slavish bondage. There are few her spots :n the E:s t.r:e of the minor English wars. ":sel as many of them have been for ass,randize- ment, than the so-ce;leI cp;ums war, which England fought for the purpose of compelling China to rel main market for the opium which was being so largely produced by India Now, after more than half century, the Chinese government has announced sweeping plans for abolishing the use of opium. These include the reduction of the acre. age, the registration of the users of the drug, and that all who use it must diminish the amount used each year. Opium dens are to be abolished. All shops selling opium are to be registered, and these are to be closed gradually There are also special rules for the disuse of the drug by government officials soldiers, and others who are to be compelled to abandon the habit.
 These are indeed radical plans and to Americans dealing with the saloon question, their successful en forcc:nent seems somewhat prob 
 lematic: but even if not fully car ried out. the promulgation of sucl wise plans shows that the Chinese government is taking a correct viev of the proper way to cure the evil
 wrought by the general prevalence
 of the opium habit in their country
