A SAD ACCIDENT.
Benjamin, COxswain Of the Columbia
Crew, Drowned at New London.

New LONDON, June 80.
The Columbia crew had just returned from
morning exercise and were about to sit down
to dinner when young Benjamin said he felt
uncomfortably hot and would take bath
first. Several comrades advised him not to
go, as the water was quite cool and sudden
change of temperature might prove danger
Gus. Nothing further was thought of the
matter until about ten minutes later, when
one of the launches crew saw the coxswain
dive from a small boat, and becoming
anxious at his prolonged disappearance shout
ed an alarm. Men ran down from the house,
and the best swimmers plunged in in futile
attempt to rescue their friend and comrade
When all hopes of saving Benjamin's life
had disappeared, Capt. Goodwin took steamer
for the city. and procuring assistance and
grapnels returned to the scene of the fatality
After a half hours cropping the body was
raised. E. b. Benjamin of New York, father
of the deceased, was notified and arrived
here at $40 P. NJ. The remains will be sent
to New York tomorrow. Benjamin was 10
years old, of the class of 's3, and General
favorite with the whole college. Columbia
men are in no mood to confer with Harvard
tonight. and it is the opinion of Capt. Good
win that there will be no contest this year.
All flags in the city and on the river are at
half-mast, and a general gloom pervades the
community.

newspapers in the State have commented
on the fact that the Advertiser seems I'M
friendly to the republicans in the State
campaign. and have attributed it to the
defeat Of Mr.. Thomas, whose nomination
the Advertiser eagerly advocated. In
asmuch az Mr.. Thomas and his friends
generally are cordially supporting the
ticket this explanation is evidently not
correct, and we have felt impelled to give
statement Of the real situation to avoid
misunderstanding during the rest of the
campaign. Hereafter If the Advertiser is
ever found elasscd as republican paper,
readers may be sure that it is for some
dishonest purpose. The Advertiser will
make no such classification.

DUBUQUE, Iowa, June D.
Word was received last night of heavy
wind and rain storm along the lines of the
Illino is Central railroad during yesterday af-
ternoon, with great damage at Independence.
The wires are all Frustrated, and last light
not one was working, and it is impossible to
get communication with the outside. Such
facts as we learn, were brought in by con-
doctors and passengers.
The storm struck Independence little be-
fore five o'clock and wrought great destruc-
ton. Fences were torn up and barns
wrecked. Houses were levelled and trees
uprooted. Nearly all the business houses
were uprooted.
The depot of the Burlington 4 Cedar Rap
ids railroad is said to be wreck. The roofs
of Fonda's store and O'Briens livery stables
were taken off, and one report saws the bridge
across the river was injured. Sells circus
was exhibiting at Independence, but fortu-
nately the blow came up after the perform
ance was out. The tent was badly damaged
and one wagon, containing the animals, lift
ed from the ground and carried some dis
lance. Many people were in town, and many
of their horses were killed by flying debris
and their wagons smashed. Two men were
killed, but it is impossible to obtain their
names. Another man had his arm broken,
At Waterloo, the wind was terrific, but it is
not known that much damage of serious
nature was done. Probably the tents of the
military encampment were ruined by the
