PROOF THAT STONE GROWS
Rock on California Farm Has In
creased in Weight Within the
Memory of Settlers.

On the farm of Mr.. James cham
pion, known as the old home place Of
his father, John Champion, boys used
to meet years ago with the elder
Champion, and often tossed a round
stone, ball fashion, one TO another.
The same stone now lies in the yard,
at the old place, and men now in their
eighties often speak of this rock and
identify 1t as the stone they used to
toss about to each other.
Today it will weigh about 300
pounds and lies near the spot where 1t
has lain for nearly a century. Some
of the most substantial old men Of
Mercer county who are now living
will vouch that this rock has grown
from a small stone to its present size
since their babyhood days.-Wilmore

To a Spirited Debate in House

Notwithstanding published assertions
to this effect.

ceipt OF telegram from citizens of
Morganza asserting the leyee was in

w. Campbell, f. o. Burton, Richard

Dawson, and reads as follows:
We noticed that Major +. NJ. Kerr
reported that the Morganza levee was
In bad condition and being guarded.
We, the undersigned citizens, wish to
contradict this report, as the levees
from Morganza to Torras are in first
class condition, and We apprehend no
danger, as the river is falling"
Major Kerr fully corroborated the
assertions of the citizens. Evidently,
he said, published reports of the al
legged bad condition of the levee in
question were based upon a report
rendered Governor Parker by his Of
nee.
Published accounts of this report
were probably distorted" he said.
my office reported to the governor
the levees were holding out we'll all
along the line, and that no trouble
was anticipated. There Is nothing
alarming In the condition Of any
lsvees within our Jurisdiction"
According to a dispatch from Baton
Rouge. the alleged report of Major
Kerr concerning the Morganza levee
was the subject of a spirited debate
In the House of Representatives. Rep
resentative Parent of Pointe Coupee,
thed ispetch said, asserted the levee
was IN bad condition and that planters
should be compelled to drain rice VA
ter which was helping to weaken the
levee.
A new levee, Major Kerr said. is be-
ing built to take the place Of the one
which broke In front of the Mon
Plaisir plantation, eighteen miles be-
low New Orleans. The new levee will
probably be competed within the next
few days, he said.
