Hen Lived in Well.

When a cover was removed recent
ly from an old, abandoned we'll here
at the home Of Elmore Dupree, Sec
ond street, after the well had been
closed up for over nine months, in it
was discovered that a hen, which
had been missing for over nine

The hen made her presence known
by her clucking, and was rescued by
L. D. Palmer.
In addition to the hen. Mr.. Palmer
brought up 27 eggs which the hen
had laid during her long confne-

plenty of worms and bugs in the well
enabled the hen to keep alive.-Ma-

Inat the rebuilding OF levees along
tne Mississippi river below New Or.
leans will cost over $1,O0O,OOO was the
statement made by Louis ]. Hennes-
Sey' representing the Association Of
commerce, who returned from q trip

and other engineers of the govern.
ment and state, The party went down

onel Thomas J. Lewis, U. S. A., and
captain Edwards, commandant at
Jackson Barracks.
Captain Edwards object in going
was to inspect Forts Jackson and St.
PhlIllp, which he found were not very
much damaged by the storm, though
some water got into the magazine at
Fort st. Philip.
The engineers, Mr.. Hennessey stat
ed, examined The Ievees carefully and,
though they declined to make anv
statement Of the result at the present
time pending an official report, it was
calculated from the inspection that
the cost of restoring levees on the
right bank of the river will be about
$SOO,OOO and on the left bank $780,.
OOO. Doubtless temporary repairs
might be made for much less, but it
Will require that amount to put the
leYees in good condition to protect the
lands along the rive. The work, too,
must be started Immediately to get
the levees in shape before the high
water OF next spring, which may begin
as early as February. 1t will require
about six months to complete it. The
Importance of getting the money for
the work, Mr.. Henessey stated, cannot
