Hon. J. 1'. McClellan, president of
the Fifth District Levee Board, and
Mr. Marshall Robinson, of the State

Friday and Saturday to take up the
levee work finished by the contractors.
The gentlemen were very much pleased
with the looks of the levee along the
front of town and down alonog the
Wyly front. They felt very much
elated over the fact that we have
escaped a high water, and a fight
against floods, especially at this time
when money. would be found scarce
for this emergency on account of the
failure of the rivers and harbors bill
to pass. Both Mr. McClellan and Mr
Robinson looked in excellent health.
They are always welcome visitors to
Provid6nce.
Mr. Irvin Davis is ore old ex-Con.
federate soldier who attended, the
Memphis re-union that was overjoyed
in going, and it was a trip for him
that we doubt if another in the whole
crowd that attended the re-uuiou felt
as good over it as Mr. Davis- His
brother and sister were to be there,
and these three were to meet once
again after a separation of so many
years. The brothers had not seen one
another in forty years and the sister
had not seen him in forty-five years.
This is a long time to be separated;
and what must have been the antici
pation and joy of meeting once again
-perhaps for the last time on this
earth. It was truly a re-union to
them.

DeVoe's Weather forecast for
June.
The people along the Atlantic coast
are likely to experience unusual cold,
wet weather this month while the
West Gulf States are likely to need
more rain than they will get. 1st to
3rd, cloudy and threatening with
local showers. 4th to 6th a storm will
form over the East Gull States and
move up the Atlantic coast, causing
rain over the east half of the United
States'. 7th to 10th a storm over the
lake region will cause a sudden rise in
temperature and a hot wave will
spread over the whole country. 11th
to 15th, local thunder storms followed
by cool, pleasant weather. 16th to
19th a storm will form over the East
Gulf States and move up the Atlantic,
causing heavy raius over states near
the coast. 23rd to 26th, a belt of
thunder storms will move over the
Northern States, followed by a cold
wave and heavy rains over the New
England States. 27th to 30th, the
mouth will close with discouraging
prospects on account of too much cold,
wet weather over the East Gult States,
and comparatively too dry over the
West Gulf States.
