CAMBRIDGE, Mimi, Oct. I.-(Spe-
cial.) 1.-THE Rum river, at this place, has
over1owed Its banks and an enormous
quantity of water is spreading over the
low lands in this region, carrying along
with it all the haystacks within Its reach
Isanti and Anoka counties are the heav-
lest losers as all the hay cut on the
meadows adjacent to this stream Is
total loss. 1t is unoff1cially reported that
one of the large dams at Milaca nus
burst on account of the tremendous
rains of late, and the water thus escap-
ing has carried away all the smaller
dams In its path. Conservative esti-
mates place the loss to Isanti county
at not less than $4,000, and the loss to
Anoka county at even a greater figure.
None of the residents can >recollect any
flood of such disastrous proportions at
this time Of the year.

TRIAL OF THEKEARSARGE
BIG NEW iBAT-TLESHIP ATTAINS
SPEED OF II Ia KNOTS AN HOUR.
Experts Deem Her Work Remarkable
Water and Her Hull Was Foul.

NEWPORT NEWS. Va. Sept. 5.-The Of
fetal reading of the log gave the first-class
battleship Kearsarge. which went on her
trial trip to-day, record of seventeen and
one-fourth knots. which speed was main
tanned for nearly half an hour. Those in
terested in the construction Of the splendid
vessel consider her accomplishment as
phenomenal, in view of the fact that the
course was in shallow water and that the
vessels bottom is in pretty filthy condi-
ton, having been in the water continu-
ously for nearly thirteen months. The
steam and hand steering gear were SUBJ
jected to the most severe tests. the mass Of
steel and iron responding to her wheel al
most readily as a steam launch. On
one test she made a semi-circular turn in
two and quarter minutes. Captain Fol-
ger, who is to command the Kearsarge
and the other naval officers on board ex-
pressed themselves as highly pleased with
the result Of the trip
The Kearsarge sailed at a. M, in charge
of Captain Faircloth. She was handled by
picked crew Of 200 men from the yard.
She left the dock under her own steam
and at once proceeded toward the capes.
At Old Point Captain Chester, who will
command the Kentucky, sister ship of the
Kearsarge, boarded the vessel. Here the
anchor chains were tested before proceeding
to the neighborhood of the capes, the COM
passes were adjusted and the big ship was
put through the various PAGES necessary to
test the qualities Of her steam steering
gear. Passing out Of the capes with the
water curling high UP on her Prov, forced
draft was put on and the remarkable speed
noted above was attained. Twenty-Five
miles out from Cape Henry the ship swung
around and started on the return trip. The
hand steering gear was tested and found
satisfactory. The new bearer Of the noble
name of Admiral Winslow's old frigate
then steamed back at a lively clip.
Both going out and coming back the
Kearsarge received a noisy greeting. Many
of the foreign ships passing dipped their
flags and saluted the new warship with
their whistles. The Kearsarge steamed up
to her dock at 6 d. m. with brooms dashed
to her peak and masthead.
Supt Walter A. Post was in charge of the
trial trip Captain Faircloth was naviga-
tor, Captain Hand, of the Philadelphia,
adjusted the compasses, and Pilot STAN
worth of Virginia, looked out for the
shoals. The trial was success in every
particular. All the armor and main battery
of the Kearsarge is in place. Her secondary
battery will be placed on board, and she will
go to New York for preparation for her
official trial trip.

Worrying the Administration.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 5.-The matter OF
making an effective blockade I'm the Phil
ippines. and especially around the island OF
Luzon. so as to prevent the insurgents from
obtaining ammunition and supplies. Is
one that is giving the administers
ton considerable concern. 1t has not
been deemed feasible to proclaim
a blockade, IL would Indicate a
state of war and possibly open a way to the
recognition of the insurgents Whether or
not IL is feasible to attack subdue and gar
rison all the ports OF Luzon which might
serve as ports of supply for the Filipinos.
has not yet been determined Heretofore
there have not been sufficient troops In Luz
zon to make this possible, and the question
will now arise whether troops had best be
spared for this purpose.
The President has been advised that the
navy should be utilized for the purpose OF
preventing the Introduction of contraband
of war and supplies for the Filipinos. At
every port a naval vessel could be stationed
and under the military law of the island
every incoming vessel could be made to ex-
hibit it's manifest. One trouble about car
rying out this plan is the fact that there ia
not a sufficient number OF light-draught
vessels to go into all the places where the
Filipinos can receive their supplies.

Given the Admiral mt Washington

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5. - Preparations
for the reception of Admiral Dewey in this
city are rapidly assuming shape. and from
the programme, even in its present incom-
pete condition, the celebration will be one
of the most noteworthy that has ever taken
place in Washington. The admirals recep-
tion here will be largely in the nature Of an

in which all tho available naval and mill
tary forces of the United States the Dis

miral Dewey home, which will be purchased
by popular subscription, will be formally
presented 10 him at the same time.
The contributions to the Dewey home fund
to date amount TO $23. 200, the amount re-
ceived to-day being $i69.

to talk. His teeth were knocked out, and
lay on the ground beside him. Near the
young man was found large oak piece of
timber seven feet long, on which were
traces of blood, and hair from his mus

MADISON, Ind, Sept. 5.-H. d. Leeds,
formerly of Hope, Bartholomew county, and
who is now in this city. says many un-
truths have been told in a Columbus, Ind,
paper concerning himself and Miss
Josephine Trisler. Mr.. Leeds says he came
to Madison June rs, and, with the exception
of two weeks, has been here since. 1t is
true. he says, that he has separated from
his family, but the insurance money ($25O)
received for his burned printing office at
Hope is in the hands of his family, as can
be proven by the Citizens Bank of Hope.
In addition to this money he says. he left
with his family everything he owned except
his clothing. Leeds denies that he and Miss
Trisler eloped. He says the young woman
came to Madison of her own accord in
search of employment, which she found here
in a boarding house of good reputation, and
where she is earning an honorable liveli-
hood. Leeds denies the statement that he
was at Jeffersonvlle on Monday, Sept. q,
with Miss Trisler; he says he was at Du-
pont, this county, on that date and can
prove it, He adds that neither himself nor
Miss Trisler has violated any law, and says

will be no trouble in finding him at Madi-

RED CROSS NURSE HOME.
Few Women Nurses I'm the Philip.
pines, and They Are Needed.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WABASH, Ind. Sept. 5.-Mrs. Rose Kidd
Beere. daughter of Major M. H. Kidd, this
city, has just returned from the Philippines,
where she has, for a year, been doing excel
lent service as a Red Cross nurse. Mrs.
Beere is inclined to complain a little at the
treatment of the Red Cross nurses by the
army officers. but the men, she states. APP
preciated the efforts of the women. She
says there are very few women nurses in
the Philippines, not nearly as many as
could be employed in caring for the small
pox and typhoid patients. The women sent
out by the New York Red Cross Society
are we'll paid and equipped, but the other
Red Cross nurses have little money and few
supplies. The latter volunteered to go
without salary. But one Red Cross woman
was i'll during the year and she contracted
contagion from a patient and soon recov-
cred. The women were on duty nearly all
the time and the men freely declared that
they were far more efficient than the army
nurses. The privates in the regiments at
tended by Mrs. Beere are raising a hand
some fund as a testimonial of her services.
Speaking of the few soldiers who were
wounded in action Mrs Beere states that
in nearly all cases where amputation of
limbs was necessary, the patient died. 1t is
probable that Mrs. Beere may return to the
Philippines.
