Such is the Missouri river to those who know it best. At last accounts the Missouri was till located in the United States, but it was trying to cross over into Canada nd empty itself into Hudson s Day. The eeograpbies state that the Missou i empties into the Mississippi; this hows how little respect for truth the eofrraphers have: tuey mean well, but they have never seen the Miusouri river t the place where it "empties iol the Mississippi. Why, the Missouri river has traveled almost 3,000 miles before it "empties into" the so-called "Father of Waters," and it is naviaa- ide for 2.500 miles above that point! We have all beard the story of the way Pat "caoabt a Tartar." Pat was in battle with the Turks and shouted that he bad "caught a Tartar." His comrades cried out to him to "Bring Lira along." "I can't," said Pat "Then come along without lum, re sponded his friends. "Begorrah, I wish I conld but he won t let me, was Tat a wail. I be Missouri liver emp tier into the Mississippi about the way .Tat caught a Tartar. The Mississippi is a ladylike, placid wtream that glides along graoefully without going out of its way or doing anything to make people talk; but Iter it meets the Missouii it simply passes oat of existence. Where it goes to, no one knows, but it is absurd to say that the Missouri that great, tawney, blustering flood, with 3,000 miles of "past" to its credit, or differed it, "empties into" it. The Mississippi is a beautiful, clear stream, whereas the Missouri is the color of boarding' house coffee, only more sof below wrhere these two .come together the water is sun muddy and continues so to the Qulf of Mexico, which proves .cef.2 !ely thst it is the Mississippi ltd runs into the Missouri, and not the other way, as the books all say. The Missouri is the most discontent .ed river in the world: it is harder to ipIeaMjiu the matter of beds than a .traveling man. Often it will get up . and leave its bed in the night and go iod settle down in a new place- gener ally selecting some farmer s best field fir the purpose. You may live on the Oraoka of the Missouii and to night re tire to rest thinking how convenient it is thus to be situated on a large navi gable river and then when you get up in the morning and go down to the civer for a pail of water to chop up for breakfast you find it isn't theie; it has yajnooAciu between sundown and sun rap, and Tu H have wJt tot ,ue manera before iou can find out where it has gone. Yes, the Missouri is muddy ; though .muddy is no name for it; the water is o thick that it often cracks in working its way round a sharp bend. Even in very wet seasons the water in the Missouri is comparatively dry. People who fall in seldom drowuj they are more likely to break a leg iu trying to awim out. A peck of mud is often found in a glass of Missouti river water left ktanding over night. Bricks are easily made by cutting the water np into ohunks of the light sizo. it takes quite a knack to diink Missouri river water, as you feel that something is needed to wash it down; many prefer to at it with a fork. The Missouri has played hob with state boundaries. Many a uou has .gone to bed living in Iowa, and the next morning he has found himself living in Nebraska, on account of the tver jumping round bis house in the niKht Quite a little section of Coun cil niuffi. Liwa. was left over on the Udbraska aide a while ago and added to Omaha in this way. It keeps the tax colleotors, census ' iakera, etc., busy watching the a u ties f the river and making their records agree. The Missouri is very fond of rail toads, and it often eats up miles of them in a few bouts. It also likes (arms, and it a man goes away from Lome for a while it is ten chances to n that nn bis return he will find his land srone down the Missouii swal lowed up by this insatiable river. On ' the oihur hand, sometimes tue river brings down a lot of tine soil and givs it tne. noor man who has only a small firm, thus iuakins him lich. Allot this shows that the Missouri river is not to be depeuded upon. It J to da the unexpected: tort time it will behave itself and poop! will l.eiiiu to tbiuk it's Roiug t) settle down for good but then it will back lid and then go off on the rampage train. It is really uusafe for a truth fal pernou to say anything positive bout the Missouri, for like as not the river will go and Uy him iu the lie the rr ueitdal. It may even be that nn.u r,f the ht iteuieuti made iu this tiioifranuv will thus no longer be true I,. th time they are in print. But the writer has tried to state the actual, 4iald facts.
