MERRILL LOSS ENORMOUS
Heavy Rainfall Compels Inhabitants
to Seek Shelter on High Ground
One May Have Lost Life.

Merrill.-The worst flood in the
history of Merrill struck the city ow-
ing to the heavy rainfall of the previ-
Gus tWenty-four hours.
The damage here will amount to
over 100000 alone and the damage
in the valley will run into the mill
ions, many dams being reported
washed out. The dam at the paper
mill of the Grandfather Falls COM
pany on the Prairie river went out.
The dam of the Merrill Railway and
Light company was partly blown out
to save the power house, the boiler
room of which has already partly
washed away
William Wiley, an employe, was
unable to escape from the building
before the overflow struck it and as
it is impossible to reach him it is
not known whether he is drowned or
not. Several of the other employees
had miraculous escapes. The break
ing of the paper mill dam caused a
food in the lower part Of the city,
families being rescued from their
hOhiCo III oOdIo, "HlStiSS were SOUND
ed to call rescuers together.
Thousands of cords of pulpwood
and excelsior bolts, boat houses and
boats have been washed down
stream. The STANCE public park is
totally submerged. The Kaul Hub
factory and Jacoby Excelsior mill are
under water. Tracks are washed
away for miles and there will be no
train in here for several days. Peo-
pie going to their work from one end
of the city to the other are COM
PEELED to go in boats. Factories and
mills are unable to run. The city
will be in darkness for several days,
owing to the damage to the power
plant.

IN THE MISSISSIPPI FOREST
Not a Land of Marshes and Swamps,
But a Region of Most Beautiful
Trees.

1t may be only q chance unaware
ness Of my own, but it seems to me that
no one has ever truly described the
happy, sturdy beauty of the MISSISSIPPI
pi forest. All my literary premonitioL5
wer of muddy river bottoms, sinister
cane breaks and dark, lowering, moss
hung swamps. But no swamps are
here
There are rather several levels; first
the creek bed and banks; then the
thick-grown bottom lands, so-called,
which are sometimes overfowed, but
except for an occasional marshy hol-
low, mostly dry; and then third roll
ing level, where the long-leaVed pine
trees grow, beautifully open and free
from underbrush, and covered with a
bright green coarse grass.
The bottom lands are dense with
broad-leaved eyergreens and hard
woods-cottonWo sycamore, beech
and poplar, this last of enormous
growth never seen in the north.
Spruce pine grows here, too, with gray
bark instead Of red-brown; sometimes
headed up at 6S feet above the ground,
into bit of dense greenery like a
clipped evergreen on a lawn; and an
Gent expresses, with their lower trunks
spreading out into deep fittings, like
wooden buttresseS. The cheerful
trees, however, are the broad-leaved
eyergreens- magnolia, holly and bay;
clothed in dark green, incredibly pol
ished leaves, the sunlight striking
from them all over little cleaning
points And draped from tree TO tree,
over the towering wild plum, the red
blossoms of the buckeye, and the milk
white starry dogwood, the yellow
jasmine faunts its golden trumpets.-

NEW LONDON UNDER WATER
Wolf and Embarrass Rivers Overflow
Banks and Residents Have to
Move-Farms Submerged.

AppletOn.-The food waters of the
Wolf and EmDarrass rivers, from
the recent heavy rains in Shawano,
Oconto and Landglade counties, have
reached New London and the Wolf
river raised over two feet in twenty
four hours, while the Embarrass riv-
er at New London came up about
fourteen inches in the same length
of time
Part of the city of New London is
under from one to three feet of wa
ter, the residents being compelled
to move to the second floor of their
homes and to use boats as the only
means of getting away from their
homes
The water is running about two
feet deep over the floors of over 100
houses and many are moving out in
boats to the higher ground on the
south side of the river.
Hundreds of farmers in the low
lands in the northern part of Outa-
game and in Shawano and Waupaca
counties will lose their entire crops.
Thousands Of acres of cabbage and
potatoes are under several feet of
water.
The food waters will not reach
Lake Winnebago and the Fox river
for several days, but the only dam
age then will be to the low lands
about Fond du Lac, Oshkosh and
Neenah, the high banks of the Fox
river being able to withstand all the
water coming down from Lake Win
nebago, and that body being so large
will not raise more than a foot or
two at the most
