A VALUABLE PICTURE
AT THE SAVOY

In "The Passing" is seen the mother
of an only child-a son. Her husband
is frivolous and hasn't time to care for
her. The mother is exceptionally de-
voted to the son, constantly playing
with him, her only comfort, her only
companion; all in the world to her
The son is taken i'll. Father is too
busy The son passes to the good
beyond. The mother is left very much
alone in the world. She sees the spirit
play with him as of old. She shows
him books. The fatheE begins to real
ize. But her child, as he would have
grown up, SO she sees his spirit, who
alone is her companion in happy hours
as the dreary years pass. The sus-
pense is too great for her. She IS
taken i'll, the husband realizing his
gruesome mistake in THE Passing"
This picture, along with others, will
be shown at The Savoy, Wednesday
April II.

men.
Several days ago a reporter found
wo prisoners working by themselves

BIGGEST FLOOD
IN HISTORY OF
THE MISSISSIPPI

New Orleans, La, April 16.-The
enormous Dog Tail crevasse in upper
Louisiana and the breaches in lower
Arkansas have relieved considerably
the Mississippi river flood situation
south of Vicksburg. From Memphis
south the river gauges today showed
24-hour change not exceeding one
tenth of a foot-a fall of one-tenta
at Memphis and Vicksburg and a rise
of one-tenth at all points from
Natchez south.
The great bulk of the Mississippi's
flood waters continued today to pour
through the Dog Tail crevasse near
Alsatia, La, rapidly inundating hun
dreds of square miles of farming and
grazing lands and driving thousands
from their homes. Sections of three
Arkansas counties and thirteen upper
Louisiana parishes will experience
what promises to be the greatest ca
lamity in the history of the devastat
ing floods of the lower river.
Capt c. o. Sheriff. of the United
States engineering corps in charge Of
the levee work from Vicksburg to the
jetties, reported conditions improved
with strong hopes of saving the re-
manning levees.
