MEMPHIS SITUATION. MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 4. Two thousand persons homeless today watched the advancing waters creeping nearer and nearer the heart of

the business district of Memphis, while !

!the city authorities held a hurried conference to devise ways of feeding and sheltering the refugees and care for the city's sanitary problems. The situation here today was desperate. The !Bayou Gayose has spread out over the (northern section of the city. About J forty entire blocks are submerged to a Jdepth of from two to ten feet. Fac

tories have been shut down and fully 4,000 persons are without work. Many of the homeless are without shelter.

j Sewers are stopped up. The gas plant 'has been compelled to shut down and ja great part of the city is without fuel. The supply is seriously threatened and

jthe problem of feeding the homeless j

i has become urgent. a Boats Seek Refugees. , In the flooded district a few police iboats patrolled this morning seeking jthose who needed help. A number i were. rescued from second stories and (from housetops. A special warning jwas sent out to leave the flooded disHrict following the washing away of' a number of smaller houses last night which leaving their foundations are ifloating down the Mississippi today.. Appeals for tents and rations have

(been sent to Gov. Hooper and word

as received today that supplies would

be rushed here. If the water continues

;to rise it 'is feared that other breaks iin the levee may come and that the greater part of the business section of 1 the, city will be inundated and that the people will have to flee. Reports from outlying districts show that the flood has caused great suf

fering. Adjutant-general Maloney of

Rejected Compulsory Happiness. In 1889 the Inundation of the Yellow river caused great suffering in China. The Inferior people not onlj "groaned and murmured." but died by the hundreds. In order to raise funds for the relief of the survivors the prefect ol Hangchqw levied a tax on each cup of tea sold in the tea bouses of the great city. The'' ancient capital assessed in this arbitrary fashion resented "that tax after the manner of the Bostonians -tf "IT73. In spite of the humane Object of the assessment, the citizecs put a boycott on tea, and the proprietors of the tea houses cried out in protest s The prefect issued a second proclamation, in "which he assured his people that happiness was their sure reward if they cheerfully contributed 'to this excellent cause. This agreeable assurance had no effect on the boy4cotters. and the tax had to be removed. Perhaps this is the only Instance on record where a cityful of people were banded to resist compulsory "happiness." Youth's Companion.

FEATHERED TYRANTS. All th Fowls of the Air Dread tho " Mutcicapa Birds. f Police work is the strangest of the work done in "the , world of birds. In France and central Europe the muscicap birds police the air. posted on telegraph wires. Black." with heads decorated " with orange fillets, these notable flycatchers are dreaded by the brigands of the air. Eagles, falcons and all the feathered strong men of the ether shrink from an encounter with this tyrant. When the tyrant cannot find wires to perch on he perches on a pole. When stationed in a preirie or a pasture he perches upon the back of an ox. lie lives by hunting insects and attacks all birds, even the strongest, using beak and claws in the unequal struggle. All the fowls of the air foar the-police bird, and even the mot active pillagers of the nests feign honesty when under the sharp eye of the Muscicapa tyrannus. In winter the tyrant takes possession f the warm shelters prized by birds. In spring, when the young are twittering in the nests, the tyrant turns "thief" and sows terror among friends and enemies alike. Even the sparrows banded to fall upon a field fly away when they see the black coat and orange fillet of the "policeman." The tyrant holds his power by his audacity. All animals yield to the influence of courage, a quality specially tenacious In birds. The tyrant bird is small, but his attitude commands respect Ha rper's Weekly. "
