needed rest. Mr.. Russell has been In in
different health since meeting with an
accident last spring and has been con-
templating his present step for sever al
weeks On Tuesday special agents OF
several insurance companies which ne
represents came here and audited his

MIR. and Mrs. Macdonald came here
last week from Haines Falls, N. T., and
will make their home with Mr.. and Mrs
Russell Mr. Macdonald is very favor
ably known in Wilmington and vicinity
and enjoys the fullest confidence of every
one who knows him. He will have the
best wishes Of many friends who expect
that he will make a complete success OF
his new business. He and Mrs MacDon-
aid will be a welcome addition to the So
ciety life Of this place.
Mn. Russell has been one Of Whining
toms most prominent citizens mas neiu
many positions of honor and responsible

Vermont Is oueen Of the Navy.

Encased in ice from stem to stern,
the new battleship Vermont came into
Boston Harbor yesterday afternoon from
her trial trip and dropped anchor OF the
navy yard about $50.
She looked like a huge spectre as she
came up through the narrows for. with
the exception of the tunnels, there was
no part of the vessel that wasn't coated
with ice. and the bow and forward part
of the battleship were burdened with
tons Of the frozen water that had been
thrown up as the huge war vessel
plowed through head seas all through
Friday and Friday night and yesterday.
at a 174-knot clip.
There is at least a foot of ice all over
the decks Of the Vermont and few men
were permitted to walk on those decks
during the last "a hours of the run.
Communication with the various parts
of the battleship was had beloved decks
The weight OF the ice on the stay ropes
broke nearly every one of them. The
marvel is that no accidents occurred dur
ing the trip.
But the trial board is satisfied that the
Vermont is the queen OF American navy,
for they say that she behaved beautifully
through IL all She was required to make
is knots. but without forcing her she
made 1898 easily over the four-mile
course.
Inc vermont lett ROcklanu. Maine, at
s O'Clock Friday morning in the teeth OF
a strong nor'easter and went over the
four-mile course. Then she put out to
sea for a 24-hour run. and her average
speed during this trial was ia knots an
hour, a very unusual speed for a battle
ship, especially when the unfavorable
circumstances are considered.
The spray from the gigantic wave
thrown up at the bow began TO freeze
on the decks during the latter part of
the run and the seas ran so heavily yes
terday that the waves broke over her
decks on every side, only to freeze the
moment they touched them. This con-
tinued until the battleship entered the
harbor yesterday afternoon
The Standardization trial took place
Dec of Rockland over 4 measured mile.
This was to test the screw revolutions at
varying speeds, that is, to find out how
many revolutions OF the screws per min
ute were required TO cover the mile in
a given time.
On board the Vermont were Rear Ad-
miral Hemphin, Capt. Osterhaus, Com
mander Maish, Naval Constructor Rob-
inson, Lieut.. Commander E w. Everly
and Capt. ]. S. K. Reeves, president OF
the engineering trial board, all MEM
bers Of the naval trial board. Capt w.
Potter, who will command the Vermont
when she goes into commission, was
also on board, and all were loud in their
praises OF the new battleship.-[Boston
