Paopla War Taksn at Great Risk
From Tree Tops and Hons Tops In
Small Boats Water ia Now Reced
ing and Worst Is Over Epidemic of
Disease Threatens Refugees Disas
ter at Other Places.
Topeka, Kan., June 2. This riiy and
vicinity has expc rlenced the most de
structive floods In Its history. Hun
dred of buildings In North Topeka are
wrecked, several destroyed by a fire
caused by slacking limn, at least 40 per
sons drowned, and over 8,000 homeless.
All bridges to Cocd'-d sections are
washed awny. The water Is now re
ceding and it Is believe d that the worst
la over. Rescuers worked for several
days kree-dnep in water and sometimes
up to their necks, and saved at. least
400 persons. l'eo;le were taken from
house tops and trees at i;reat rUk. and
many were In a half farr.iahed condi
tion, having been compelled to dint? to
their perilous positions for as Ions as
72 hour.
Iiriefly stated, the. present condition
of the flood is this:
Thirty-four known deal.
About 8,000 people without homes.
Over l,Uu0.0OO loss of proprt.
Hanks collapsed, 2; wholesale gro
cery stores flooded, 2
II lK buKincss blocks almost ready to
crumble, SO.
Wholesale commission housed de
serted, 6.
Rock It'.and train, containing 130
passengers, held here by hifih wter
City water works plant useless.
One of the most distressing features
of the situation now Is the possibility
that there will be a spread of conta
gious diseases. People of all classes
are huddled together In houses not
larea enough for them, and on all
sides they are surrounded by water.

in high stations of lire who are just
easy if the proper web is woven
around theui. A case in point is that
of the Humberts, of Paris, who lived
in luxury on the money they securej
by clever
schemes. They have moved in the
cream of society, spent money lavish

last they have been brought to jus

to buy their release.
Near the lower entrance to the

stands a vertical prong of rock, a sort
of rough monolith, with slightly ellip

eight feet thick, in larger diameter at
the base aud tapering gentiy to a

work of rescue. In tan darkness, at
the greatest risk of their own lives,

way to tho south shore one of the
women fainted from fatUue and fright,
and this all but swamped tho boat.
The men mad.? superhuman efr.ms
and finally reached the pontoon brid.i;-'
with their precious cargo. Hcr will

them over the MeUm bridge to s.u'etv.
This is only ono of a hundred
thrilling rescues. The most prominent
men of tho town denned oilskins, and,
submerged in water up to their
breatHa, worked for hours in tho eold
water. Women and children wore
given the preference in the work of
rescue.
