Mississippi at This Point Declines
Rapidly as Ice Gorge Forms
at LIE Claire.

The Mississippi river today was
at the lowest stage in some years,
being only three-tenths of a foot
above low water mark.
Due to an ice gorge in the LIE
Claire rapids, IA miles above here,
the stage of the river lowered per-
ceptibly Saturday night, when the
reading was 25 feet above low wa
ter mark Yesterday morning it
was eight-tenths of a foot above
zero, decline of 1T feet overnight.
a drop of another half foot has been
recorded since yesterday and this
morning the reading was three
tenths of a foot above low water
mark
J. NJ Sherier, meteorologist at
the local government weather bu-
reau, today said that the present
stage is temporary and that it is
only local. due to an ice gorge at
lie Claire. He said that often in
the summer, stages as low as the
present are reached, but for this
time of the year the water is I'M
usually low Mr.. Sherfer's opinion
is that the water will rise as rap
idly as it receded, as soon as the
ice gorge breaks. The stage of the
river at Clinton. he said, has shown
no great change since Saturday.
Fear No Shortage.
John A. Murrin, commissioner of
public property and superintendent
of the waterworks, today said that
Rock Island people need have no
fear of shortage in the water sup
ply
While we are not urging folks

not worried about the water sup
ply. AS long as there is a drop Of

about many other things. And the
Rambler does not understand why
they should be called beggar lice and

Before falling into this DEPRESSION
about thoughts and thinking, the
Rambler had seated himself under

tomac pike to the River road. There
he fell into brown study as to what
he should write about this Sunday.

brick chimney among some hare and

away. In all that wide landscape
which lay under the Ramblers vision
there appeared no house nor any lane
leading east from the road suggesting
that a habitation might lie in that
direction. In the foreground and mid
dle-glound was an extensive field that
seemed not to have been under the
plow for several years. In the dis
tant background were hills robed in pur-
pie haze.

Doc Watches for Auto.

Does evolution in the life of animals
cause them to take added care in 60
ing across a street infested with au-
tos? Some folks says it does. Early
In the auto age numerous dogs were
killed because they would run out to
bark at an auto and, judging the speed
by that of a horse-drawn vehicle, they
often were run over.
This fact can still be noticed In some
country districts, where autos are not
plentiful. Close students and lovers
of dogs in the city say they have often
noticed dogs looking to the left and
to the right before they start across
a street. OF course, not all Of them
do, neither do all human beings, but
the thinking" dog does. Watch it for
yourself.
