Searching for the Bodies of the Drowned
at Winona, Mo.

Winona, Mo-, July S.-The flood is sub
siding at this place, and search for the
bodies of the drowned is being made.
The bodies of Rev. 6. Duncan and
daughter Matte, and Norma Nevels, were
found at noon under the driftwood about
a mile below town, also the body of an
unknown stranger who was stopping at
one of the hotels, and was therefore not
known as missing.
Some thrilling rescues from the flood
were made At a point half mile below
the city gentleman on the bluff tied a
rope around his waist and when body
came by he would jump into the
maddened water and grasp it, and with
the aid Of friends on the bank who held
the other end of the rope, fastened to
him, drag the inanimate form to the
shore. In this way he rescued three from
drowning and recovered two dead bodies.
A terrible stencil has arisen from the
mass -of cattle, hogs, horses and other
animals drowned. George B. Nevens and
Lloyd Wright's daughters are missing.

DEFENDER INJURED.
strengthening Braces Strained in Sun
days Trial Trip.

Providence, July 9-The Defender
strained some strengthening braces yes
terday while on her second trial trip off
the south end of Prudence Island. When
she arrived at her anchorage in Bristol
Harbor it was discovered that two steel
pieces of piping, bolted from the deck
braces to the bilge brace stringer of
angle iron were bent and twisted out of
shape on account of the greab strain
OF carrying the sails. The pieces of
steel piping were rather stout and fast
ened in range Of the mast on both sides
from the middle of the deck to the bilge
section. The aluminium plates in that
region did not show any indication of
bending, but they must have sprung
somewhat to cause the steel braces to
bend in the manner they are at present.
Other braces of the same material will
probably be put up in range of the mast
in day or two The Defender was
hauled into the wharf and number of
men are now finishing her up inside. 1t
is likely she will not have another trial
before Saturday, as the rigging will be
again set up this week.
All information regarding the sail area
of the Defender has beensand is carefully
guarded. The Journal is able to give
figures regarding the mainsail that go
far towards confirming the statments
made some time ago by Mr.. Iselin to the
effect that the Defenders sail area would
not greatly exceed that of the Vigilant.
The greatest increase is of course in
the mainsail. The mainsail of the Vigil
liant measures about 500 square feet. Ac-
cording to the information obtained,
which is believed to be in the main cor
rect, the Defenders mainsail contains
about $685. square feet If the figures from
the other side are correct, the sail is
somewhat smaller than that spread by
Valkyrie I'LL the cup challenger.

BLUE LAWS ENFORCED.
How a Lunch Cart Caused Commotion in
a Massachusetts Town.

Franklin, Mass, July S.-Excitement
and indignation prevailed here today over
the enforced closing of the news stands
and drug stores yesterday.
About two months ago lunch stand
was established on the bridge and kept
open all day Sunday, to the annoyance of
many people. A few of the most strait
laced then circulated petition for the
strict enforcement of the Sunday laws of
the commonwealth, and one hundred and
fifteen men signed the petition, among
whom were all the Protestant clergymen
of the town.
1t is said that many of the petitioners
signed their names under the impression
that itssl asked for the suppression of
the Objectionable lunch cart only. When
they discovered that an. enforcement of
the Sunday laws, as asked for, would
close up the newspaper stand and the
drug. stores some of them became the
angriest men in town, and resented what
they said had deceived them.
The matter has thus hung fire for more
than two months, and the storekeepers
began to think that the whole affair had
blown over, but on Saturday Officer Silas
W. Nickerson notified all interested
parties that he had been instructed by
bno Sol6CGIHeu 10 euloECe tl6 ldW, ana
that he should do so to the letter.
The drug stores of A. c. Dana and
Mason 6 Co., were closed tight all day
long, and hundreds of thirsty wayfarers
| in quest of a cooling soda or soothing
cigar turned Indignantly away.
| The druggists say that to keep open for
the sale of drugs alone would be profit
| less self-sacrifice, and that if they cannot
sell soda and cigars they will refuse to
sell anything at all. This is just what
they did yesterday.
| Nothing of Importance occurred until
late in the evening, when the almost
| frantic father of very sick child went to
the house of Mr.. Dana and besought him
| to sell some of the prescribed brand of
condensed milk which the father had
been buying and of which his .child was
then in need
Mr.. Dana replied that he would be
liable to prosecution and fine of $50 if
he complied with the request, and that he
could not take the risk.
The angry father denounced the law,
the petition, and lastly and roundly,
poor, innocent Mr.. Dana himself, and
then went from storekeeper to storekeeper
until Mr.. Staples, local grocer, said he
would go to his store and get the milk
even'i If he had to pay the fine twice over,
and he got it.
Many of the prominent residents of the
town loudly complain over the affair, and
some of the more determined ones
threaten, if the thing Is continued, that
none of the petitioners shall ride through
the streets on Sunday except to and from
church under penalty OF arrest and prose-
cution for the violation of the blue laws
which prohibit riding on Sunday.

THE DAY OF THE RACE
And the Cornell Crew at Henley are not
Feeling Much Like Rowing.

Henley -on-the Thames, July S.-The
Henley regatta will commence tommor-
row, and Cornell, at $50 p. M. of the
first day, will meet the famous Leander
boat clubs crew, probably the strongest
on the river.
In view of the depressing accounts
circulated regarding the health of the
Charles E. Courtney, their coach, when
he arrived at the boathouse this morn
ing. Courtney looked very glum, and
said:
II do not know whether the Cornell
crew will be able to row tomorrow. The
fact is, we have two sick men among the
crew who ought not to row in tn cir
present condition. They are Hager and
Fennell. The latter was in high fever
yesterday evening
right tomorrow as l. afflicted in the same
way, feel right one day and bad the next.
But, if our boys were fit | should feel
very confident that there is not crew on
the river equal to them. They have been
steadily improving in practice and make
fast time at each trial
In spite of this, I am unwilling to
Udhe ullo RESPONSIBILITY Ol allowing SICK
men to strain themselves in a race. If the
invalids are not better tomorrow we shall
have to put in substitutes or else scratch.
l have done everything possible to keep
the men in condition, but they have been
unable to contend with the climate and
the little worries they have been sub
jected to.
If had the thing to do again I would
request permission to bring 25 men here
and keep two crews in training"
Courtney does not share the suspicious
of Mr.. G. S. Francis, the trustee of
Cornell university, who accompanied the
crew to England, regarding the alleged
crookedness in the drawing of lots for the
different heats, which resulted in pitting
Cornell against the Leander crew. Com
menting on the drawing, Courtney re-
marked:
''It is true that the affair was managed
differently than at home. Here there is
one man who draws the names from q
hat and then tears them up, none of the
Others seeing them. But this man was
an old Leander boat club man of the
highest repute, and if he desired to favor
his club he would have given them a
bye -
