FLOODS SWEEPING THROUGH KANSAS Heavy Rains Have Caused the Rivers To Flood LowIands Spreading
 Misery and Loss.

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 9-More than three thousand people are homeless and millions of dollars worth of prop erty have been swept away by the swollen rivers of this state. Unpre- cedented rains have been falling over the entire state during the past week and the rivers have overflowed their banks. inundating the lowlands for a depth of several feet.
 The Kansas and Arkansas rivers have reached the highest stage since the settlement of the state by whites. Thousands of head of live stock have been drowned and crops of all nature, especially the corn has suffered. Hundreds of persons in the isolated communities are in danger of perishing, as they are marooned and cannot escape until outside help reaches them.
 The state authorities are active in affording relief to the sufferers and relief parties are bringing hundreds of people here daily, as they have lost their homes in the flood.
