SWITCHMAN'S BAD ACCIDENT
A very unfortunate accident oc
curred to William Allbee early Sat
unlay morning while he was attend
ing to his duties as switchman for
the Burlington In the yards at this
plaep. it seems that Mr. AUhse was
riding a Btrlng of cars down one of
the tracks which was supposed to
be clear, but on which for ome rea
son a vht had been left standing. On
acc ount of the darkness he could not
see this car and when they struck
he was thrown from the top of the
car on which he was riding to the
track between the cars in such a
manner that the wheels passed over
both hands, crushing them terribly
up to the wrists. He was taken to
the St. Joseph Hospital, where it
was found necessary to amputate
both members at the wrist joints.
Mr. Allbee was employed in the
freight house for a time but being
anxious to make belter wages went
to switching about a month ago. It
is certainly very unfortunate for a
young man with a family to be de
prived the use of his hands and he
surely deserves the sympathy of ev
ery one.
Dr. Slagle reports him as doing
especially well so far as the opera
tion is concerned.

HIGH CLASS ENTERTAINMENTS
Two entertainments recently given
in Alliance did not receive an ex
tended mention in The Herald as we
intended they should, and although
somewhat late to bring the matter up
we are sure they deserve the follow
ing mention:
The first number of the Lecture
Course was the Rounds Orchestra.
This was pronounced by those pres
ent to be one of the best entertain
nients ever given In this city. If
this entertainment is an index to
the course, the managers of the
Lecture Course have The Herald's
congratulations upon their selections
for this season.
The Ole Theobaldi entertainment.
Oct. 14th, was one of those high
class entertainments that it is a
pleasure ,to commend. When the ad
vance agent was in Alliance some
time ago he had difficulty in making
a date, as the cost of securing this
entertainment was so high that
there seemed to be no room for a
margin of profit for the local parties
concerned, but Mrs. J. T. Wlker,
manager of the Bennett Piano Com
pany's store, was so interested that
she undertook to raise the necessary
guraantee, which she succeeded in
doing. The Herald wishes to com
mend her for her part 1 nsecuring
the entertainment for our city and
congratulate her upon the success of
the same.
