Patrick, of the Memphis, the eng engineers, at fror be raised, and that the steamer Vandalia was ordered from Cairo. Jousx M. Wirsoy, “Chief of Engineers,’’ CAUSED BY MUSKRATS, Says the Engi of the Levee for Three years, Humphrey Devereux, of Cincin- of the Baltimore and Obio railroad, was the evugineer in charge of the Shawneetown levee for three years, At that time Mr. Devereux was a civil engineer employed by the engi neer corps of the army. In 1892, 1893 and 1894 he had charge of the levee, and superintended the work of rip-rapping and strengthening the dike. “That levee,’* said Mr, Devereux, ‘was built in 1840, and was consid- Jered one of the safest and best on ithe Ohio. This is the third time, how » that the river bas gone through it. The original levee was constructed by the State of Illinois, and cost between $150,000 and $200,000. It was about four miles | long and ten feet above the lowlands, It surrounded the entire town, with {a considerable stretch of the low- lands, aud was made of clay, the | kind engineers and builders know as buckshot clay. “In the spring of 1883 there was a flood. F ome days the levee with- | stood the pressure of the high water, jand then the structure began to |weaken. The people were notified, jand they moved ail their possessions nd took themselves to the bigh grounds in the hills. The levee was cut and the water poured through, jinundating the country for miles Stock was drowned, and | around | great damage was done the town and country, but be- had been notified } the surroundir cause tke people } “When the waters receded the | levee was repaired; but the spring | following there was another flood The river rose to within a few inches of where it had been in 1883, and the levee had to go. Again the inhabi- tants of the town had been warned, and again they saved their personal and portable effects by taking refuge in the hills back of the town, and far out of reach of the water, and the strain was again relieved by cutting | the levee. -| “Then the people saw the levee would have to be raised and greatly | strengthened, or they would be drown- river got high jed out whenever the 1887 the government engineers took charge of the improvement of the levee, and for two years the work was vigorously pushed. When completed the levee was consid ered by engineers and levee builders to be the safest one in the valleys, The original length of four miles was not increased, That was long enough to surround the town from the upper hills to the lower hills, but the height of the embankment was raised, At 10 feet the floods of 1883 wad 1884 went over the levee, so it was raised 7 feet above the top |of the old levee, the bank that had stood around the town since 1840, “Tt was built like a railroad em- bankment, with the sides sloping down, The top was wide enough to hold the tles and tracks of the Onio and Mississippi railroad, now in the Baltimore and Ohio system, The height of the levee was increased by adding sand and flattening it down, 2'4 feet horizontal to 1 vertical, which increased the base and strength ened the whole levee. This was done on all but the front and half of the north levee. Here danger was great- est, so these places were riprapped. “When I was in charge for the government from 1892 to 1894 the levee seemed impregnable, and it is difficult to see how it gave way. The disaster was prebably caused by one of two thengs. In the center of the levee, right in front of the town, was a 30-inca drain pipe and a gate. The drain pipe ran from the town through the embankment and to the lowlands outside, Water may have seeped and leaked from the outside along this drain pipe and into the levee’s hase, thus Weakening it and making it unable to stand the terrible press. ure of the flood. ‘This 1s a likely cause, but I think the nest probable one is that the dis- aster was caused by the burrowing of muskrats, These pests do more damage to levees than all other things combined. ‘They dig into the Hevees, and frequently cut all the way |through. In the spring they mate jand burrow for nests, sometimes making the interior of the levee noth- ling but network of holes, Imme- diately in frout of the Shawneetown levee there was a pond, into which | that 30-inch drain pipe ran, and thi pond was given over to the muskri | In my time st the Shawneetown levee the muskrats gave us no end of trou- ble, and during high water the works had to be daily inspected, Walking | along the inside slope of the levee, I have often seen a dozen holes within as many yards, all dug by these pests of the levees, Muskrat holes extend. ing from the inner slope to to the wet | earth on the outside probably let the | water through, ‘This little hole had Louisville if Rephes from and Capt.

The enrollment to date is 1,902 white and 822 colored, total 2,724. This is 210 more than the enrollment to this date last year, 190 more than for all the year.
