Water Highest in Years.
The water is the highest known in
years. in fact nothing like it has been
experienced since the big bridge
across the Yellowstone at this point
was washed out about twenty years
ago.
The annual breaking up of the ice
is always spectacular sight here,
but it usually occurs only once a year.
The Yellowstone was first cleared of
ice at this point on Feb &c, but sub
sequent cold weather caused ice of
several inches thickness to again
form. Last nights breakup was &C.
centuated by the increased volume of
water due to the quickly melting

warm wind.
Twenty Foot Fill Washed Out.
The first news Of railroad damage
received here was the report that be-
cause of an ice gorge and food near
Big Horn station, west of Miles City,
800 feet of twenty-foot fill had
been washed out and the river had
sought its old channel at that point.
1T is estimated it will take two weeks
at least to repair this damage.

two miles above the city, and his wife
and two children had narrow escape.
When they saw the food coming they
started for town in wagon, but found
it impossible to get through They
turned back and sought refuge in a
barn. Railroad men saw their plight
and got to them with boat Bodies

reports are to the effect that Berry

CHAPTER ~.
The News At Ripley.

Miss Molly Mcdonald had departed
for the west-carefully treasuring her
fathers detailed letter Of instruction
filled with interest and enthusiasm.
She was an army girl, full of conf
dence in herself and delighted at the
prospect of an unusual summer.
Moreover, her natural spirit OF ad-
venture had been considerably stimu-
lated by the envious comments of her
schoolmates, who apparently believed
her wondrously daring to venture such
trip, the apprehensive advice of her
teachers, and much reading, not very
judiciously chosen, relative to pioneer
life on the plains. The possible hard
ships of the long journey alone did
not appall her in the least. She had
made similar trips before and had al
ways found pleasant and attention
companionship. Being a wholesome,
pleasant-faced girl, with eyes decided
ly beautiful, and an attractive person
ality, the making of new friendships
was never difficult. OF course, the
stage ride would be an entirely fresh
and precarious experience, but then
her father would doubtless meet her
before that, or send some officer to act
as escort. Altogether the prospect
appeared most delightful and alluring.
The illness of the principal of Sun
nycrest had resulted in the closing Of
the school some few days earlier than
had been anticipated, and 1t was so
lonely there after the others had de-
parted that Miss Molly fastened her
packing and promptly Joined the ex-
odus. Why not? She could walt the

To the School Trustees and Pa
irons of oconee County:
gather from the discussions
which took place in some OF the ses-
sions during the recent conference of
the County superintendent of Edu-
cation at Clemson College that there
is at present considerable demand
for new teachers In the public school
system OF the State, and that there
ts special need for men teachers
trained in agriculture In the rural
schools.
The majority OF the graduates OF
Clemson are now going into the ag-
ricutural high schools of Georgia,
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and
other OF the Southern States as
teachers OF science and agriculture.
We should he glad that there Is n
demand In these States for them, but
would like to see more OF them en-
gagged In school work in our own
State and county.
There are about dozen men of
the present senior class at Clemson
who we feel will prove a force for
good. no matter where they go, and
1t occurs to me that the public
schools of Oconee county and the
State need such men. II you could

graduates in the rural schools OF

prove help to you.
