 It is reported that contractor on the railroad near Shell Lake, lost T head of mules by drowning, They were on raft, and from some cause became frightened, and crowded to one side, capsizng the raft.
 There is much complaint about recklessness of the steam boate ply ing the river. Instead of keeping to the middle of the stream, they try 10 make cut offs, and the waves have turned over several houses. IL is said warning was given the pilot If the Steamer City St. Joseph, last Sunday night, by creasing his fore head with bullet

 The deer are being Slaughtered right and left. IL is reported that a railroad official shot one of the poor animals, last Friday, from his car window. and sent negro in the overflow to bring it ont, and put it on his car, The officers of the law are either helpless or indifferent. and the annihiation of the American deer goes on to the end.
 An act of humanity happened Tuesday, which is worthy of note. MT. W. c. Cav trainmaster on the Choctaw, brought in deer lie found entanged in brush in the overflow. It was severely cut up. and it's shoul- der broken. II was turned over to Dr, Rush, who cared for it's wounds as tenderly as though it was human. and has it in his barn as a patient.

The Mississippi in floodtime.

From Itasca to the Delta,
 From the Forest to the Sea, Ye have rolled iii rumbing thunder Century by Century In the silence of the ages,
 Ere the first wild redmans birth, 1e were fashioning the valley That should nurture half the Earth. And thy waters Of the floodtime Were the glory Of thy toll Surging madly to the hillcrest,
 Bearing life unto the soil, Bending out the first frail verdure, But to make il bloom again Ye. the Father of the Waters,
 Wooing Earth To mother men And man came, thy child defiant That would slave his parent s might Grasp the wealththat yehad garnered In the dim primeval night, Girded thee with walls and cities, Bade thee SOW unto his sway And, unawed before thy power. Made thee bear him on his way. Ye were docile, ye were gentle In the service of thy son, Save when came thy yearly labor And thy work was to be done. Fell ye then upon thy offspring, Slew him in his blind content, While he held thee as a demon Who were but beneticent. Still unconqured, still the monarch. Now as of thy barren shores, From a thousand vassal rivers Der thy banks the death-tide pours, Swerveless as the fixed seasons, Certain as the rising Sun, Ye shall tempt thy task eternal Till the will of man hath won.

Certainly the leyee can be built To hold the Mississippi All it needs K more leyees, higher leyees and bigger levees, and all it takes to build them is money, dirt and men, and some brains. There's dirt enough; provide the money and there will be men enough and brains enough, but we still contend that with each succeed ing flood they will have to be built still higher and still bigger Aye, there's the rub Whether lis worth while 10 keep building them or not. They can be made to hold any ordinary water, even as they are now. but ever once and while comes an unprece- dented water. aS witness the floods of 's2, of '97 and ot ,o2 and now of lal2. and years previous to those dates, and then they don't hold and ruin and destruction is scattered broadcast throughout a broad and fertile land. Truly the high water problem is just what Sherman said war Was, and maybe more so. We've remarked be- fore, it's big tght-a struggle to the eeath, mans game, and one that will never end.
