new QUEEN OF THE NAVY
BATTLESHIP ILLINOIS NOW EN-
TITLED TO THE BROOM.
Broke the Record for Ships of Her
Class i'm "a Run from Newport
News to New York.

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.-The battleship
Illinois, which to-day dropped anchor off
TOmpkinsville, after its final trial run from
Newport News to New York, has proved
herself the queen of the navy. In every
test she has surpassed the Alabama the
Oregon and even her sister ship, the Kear-
sage. The tests were rigorous and fully
demonstrated, her officers say, her superb
GRITTY over other vessels of her class which
the country can boast.
Commander Usher, who, in the absence
of Captain Converse, was in command Of
the vessel, said tonight: 1--WE had hard
test, and surprising efficiency, speed and
power were developed. The most graft
flying test, which was somewhat surpriS-
ing, was her speed at natural draught
The test showed 102 revolutions a minute
as against IS for the Kearsarge. The ad-
ditional speed indicated by the greater
number of revolutions would make us
about half-knot an hour faster than the
Kearsarge, or. in fact, any other battle
hour. Under natural draught at top speed
the coal consumption would be approx
imately $50 tons a day.
1T was not only in speed that the Illinois
broke records. said the captain: "she sur
passed the figures of the tests OF other bat
tleships in every particular. In maneuver-
ing, in handling the guns, hosting ammu-
nition, loading and sighting and in swing
ing to one point and another, though
engaged in a fight, she fully showed her
superiority"

Hampton's Trial for Murder.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
DANVILLE, Ind, Feb. 12.-The star wit
ness for the State to-day in the Haynes
murder trial was Charles Rice, who heard
the noise of trouble in the drug store where
Haynes is supposed to have received his
fatal wound. Rice is twenty-four years
old. and the morning of the day of the
murder he came TO town from the country,

lOafed around the drug store all day, and

drank with him. About o'clock witness

intoxicated when he arrived home and
went to bed. He arose in a short time
and went back 10 the drug store to get
another drink The store closed and
he could not get in. He walked away a
short distance and sat down and went to
sleep. He awOke about 10:45. when he
heard the door of O'Briens drug store

burning and he looked through the win
store Witness then went to the rear door,
thinking he might gain admission. Be
fore he reached the door ne saw Wilson

ton opened the door and let Haynes in.

room. witness heard noises and loud talk
ing and recognized the voices of Haynes

sounds OF a struggle, heard a blow struck
and heard some one fall. After the sound
OF the fall the lamp was extinguished and
everything became quiet. Witness was
frightened and left. but had not gone far
when some one left the drug store. Wit
ness went home and to bed. He slept
late and did not know of Hayness con-
ditiOn until next afternoon Cross ex-
animation failed TO break down this story.

titled that his brother came home early

CROWN POINT, Ind, Feb. 12.-John
Sprencii, the main state witness in the
Davidson murder trial. on whose testimony
the fate of young Curtin. Stewards and
Fleming hangs. was on the stand to-day
and narrated the grewsome details OF how
Davidson met his death at Valparaiso on
the night of Dec. 10. as ne alleges, at the
hands of the three young companions.
Sprencil in the main, swore that he saw
the boys drag Davidson near the Pennsyl-
vania tracks and there knock him down
with blunt instrument and then attempt
TO throw the dead body on a passing freight
train. They failed in the attempt and by
dragging the body around had the clear.
white snow covered with blood and brains
over a great area.
There seems TO be great controversy over
his evidence, as { is alleged Sprencil has
told several stories of the affair. First il
Is said he declared he knew nothing of the
affair until next morning. Then in a few
days came forward with the statement that
he saw the bows commit the crime on fear
ing he would be discharged by the railroad
company if il were known that Davidson
was killed by train at his crossing. He
gave that evidence before the grand jury
and the boys were indicted. Later. at Ag-
new & Kelleys law Office. it is alleged he
again contradicted the story. The boys
were about TO be released, and again
Sprencil swore they were. Davidson's muir
derers, and they were reindicted, and on
the witness stand to-day he held we'll to
the original story, denying mostly what
the attorneys for the defense say he told
them in their office on the 10Th and TO other
outsiders on the streets of Valparaiso.
Sprencil seems very much frightened,
and was on the verge of collapse to-day
when the defense attacked the many differ
ent stories IL is said he has told regarding
the murder. Both sides admit that Seward,
Fleming and Curtin had fights with David
son late in the night OF Dec. -

The other Wag.

It is evident that we can't live without
food and we can't maintain good health any
length Of time on half rations. When the
stomach is weary and refuses to work, we
must devise some plan besides starvation to
give it rest. There is only one other way,
can be taken Immediately after eating that
will aid the digestion OF food. Some OF
them help digest starchy foods, such as
bread and potatoes and cereals; Others help
digest albuminous and heterogeneous foods,
such as eggs and meat and cheese. Most
of these preparations are good as far as they
60, but they do not go far enough. Nature
demands a generous and varied diet, and
EVERYTHING we eat must he thoroughly
digested. Partial digestion may relieve for
time. but il cannot cure dyspepsia.
