Medford Drug Co., Druagtsu It Grown Feeble. The attraction of a man's character is apt to be outlived, like the attraction of his body, and tbe iover of love grows feeble In its turn, as well as the power to inspire love In others. It is only with a few rare natures that friendship Is added to friendship, love to love aud the man keeps growing richer In a frectiou richer. I mean, as a bank may be said to grow ricb, both giving and receiving more after bis head Is white and bis back weary, and be prepares to go down into tbe dust of death. Kohert Louis Stevenson.

March 9 The weather Bureau today issued tho following special river bulletin: The heavy rains of Saturday and Sunday, havo materially increased the volume pf water in the Ohio and MissWsippi rivers and their principal tributaries. Danger-line stages prevail from Cincinnati to New Orleans. The greatest height above the danger line is at Evans ville, 6.8 feet. At Memphis the rise continues steadily at tho rate of one or two tenths of a foot in 24 hours, while at New "Orleans the ;tage this morning is 18.1, a rise of .5 during the last 24 hours, and within 1.4 feet of the highest water on record. The Mississippi above Cairo is rising rapidly. The Ar kansas is tho rising, while the White, B'ack and Red rivers are now at flood stage. Another dis turbance now over the upper' Mis souri valley threatens to cause more-rain Tuesday and Wednes day in the Ohio and lower Missis sippi valleys. If this rain should fall in considerable quantities, it will still fuither intensify flood conditions, and all preparations should be made for still higher stages. Additional bulletins wiil be issued daily, or oftener- should occasion require. One hundred families living be low Alton, HI., have been rendered homeless, and many lost their be longings as a result of the rise in the Mississippi river. The river also threatened to inundate the fine farming lands on Missouri Points, across the river, and farm ers and stockmen are preparing to more out. Hundreds of farmers living in the low lands about Uar risburg, 111., have beep forced to move by the rising of Salina and Bankston creeks, tome . abandon ing stock to the flood. -For miles throughout the country is a vast sheet of water. - Reports from Hannibal, Mo., state that tbe upper Mississippi is rending down great volumes of water.and the river is higher for this time of the season than for years. - ' ' . WE NEED NEW FIGHTING SHIPS VIEWS F PEWEY AND MEMBER! OF THE NAVY BOARD. j a? . v.V Washington, March 9. The prevail ing opinion of the ' general Navy board, of which Admiral Dewey It chairman, is that the United Statei Navy rQiir at least seventy-tw; first-class waraaiips at an early daj as possibl. The naval oflclals and congresa' have been trying to agree on a fixer!' program aoipaunaing. in oraer tnal the United States Navy ahall catch up with the navies of the groat powers. The nearest approach to rapid develop ment took place at this congress, it is not ustonry to make large In vestments at a short session. Popular opinion, however, forced congresi to act. In tbe last hours of eongreas a romnmmJaa w raaMinri inv .... thorlzed five battleships, all of great.' tonnage. Taa matter will be dis cussed tastil tke -meeting of the next' congress, and there will bs many con fereps ef officials of the navy' de partment. It is said there Is a difference of opinion between the secretary of the navy and the naval board as to bow best to secure the rapid Increase, but It Is not believed that this will retard actual progress. The views of taa general naval board will probably bs adopted.
