CushionSole Shoes Bad Wreck this Morning. Train No. 11, due at this terminal nt 8:20, was wrecked in tho east end of the yards this morning, resulting in the death of Firomen Jesse Berry, sevcro bruises to Engineer Sebastian Schwaiger, and badly wrecking tho engine, mail car nnd express car. Pas sengers in tho coaches nnd sleepers wero not injured. Tho wreck was due to the breaking of the rod which operates the throw rail at the switch opposite tho W. M. Cun ningham residence. When tho engine struck the switch, the throw rail parted, derailing the engine, which plowed through the earth for a distance over ono hundred feet, making n wide furrow from twelve inches to two feet deep. When it came to a stop tho huge locomotive was toppled over on the south side and well buried in the pit it had plowed, with the tank cross wise of the track. Tho mail car shot north tho leagth of itself and the bng gago car was turned sidewisc across tho track. Fireman Berry was pinned in tho wreck of the locomotivo and instantly killed. IUb body was badly scalded by the escaping steam. Engineer Schwai ger was badly bruised, but not serious ly injured. The men in the mail and bnggnge cars wero badly jolted, but did not sustain severe injuries. In view of the wrecked condition of tho cars, they made a miraculous escape, as did also Engineer Schwaiger. Tho lower two-thirds of the broken throw rod, which was responsible for the accident, had been cracked for somo time, and it is somewhat remarkable that a similar accident hud not pre viously occurred. The financial damage to tho company is placed nt four thous and dollars. Traffic was not delayed, incoming and outgoing trains using tho north side tracks. The sudden termination of the life of Fireman Berry cast a gloom over all his acquaintances. He was a yountj man of exemplary habits, of pleasing address, and wna held in high esteem by all. He had boon a resident of the ity for four years, and during that timo had been in the service of tho company as fireman. Last summer his widowed sister, Mrs. Delanoy, moved to town to accept a position in tho city schools, nnd since that timo Jesse had made his home with her. He was a member of the B. ofL F. and E., and theJKnights df Columbia. A funernl servico will bd held nt St. Patrick's church tomorrow and tho re- muins taken to Iowa City for interment, accompanied by Messrs. Armstrong and Sturdevant of tho foremen's lodge and Frank McGovern and Leo Tobin of tho Knights of Columbus. A coroner'B jury to inquire into tho wreck is In session this afternoon. Spectacular Entertainment. Tho "Story of the Reformation," which will be presented nt tho Keith Feby. 7th nnd 8th under tho auspices of tho Lutheran church, is an entertain ment of great spectacular boauty. The evening opens with a march which represents theology entering tho union. Tho march is led by seven coujles of peasants, representing the soven lead ing Protestant countries of Europe, in tho order in which the ideas of the Re formation entered thoso countries. These are followed by ladies and gen tlemen, wearing tho German colors nnd carrying the Germnn flag, representing the states of Germany. After these come a number of ladies in red, white and blue nnd carrying Old Glory, repre senting the states of tho union. Ab they march they sing and form many intricate figureB. Into tho last figure will come Ecclesia (tho church) with uplifted cross, and at the close, all of the flags saluto the cross. 'The Great Divide" To Be Seen Here. "Tho Great Divide", the most strik- intr drnmutic success tho American staire has Been for a quarter of a cen tury, will bo played at Tho Keith noxt Thursday eveninir. This news will bo received with delight by our play lovers for no drama of recent years has at tracted na much attention as "Tho Great Divide." The rond tour is being directed bv Henry Miller whoso name is inseparably linked with the success of tho piny. Tho cast was selected by this famous actor-manager with grent care, and the production is nn exact duplicate of tho Now York original. No other drama has so well reflected tho manhood, tho freedom, the honesty and tho indomitable spirit characthristic of tho neonle of our great country. With tho first two acts laid in Arizona nnd the third in MaBsachusottcs, thero is offered in contrast two of tho most viororous nnd progressiva sections of tho land. The story of tho play rep resents a conflict between tho free un trnmmolled spirit of the West and tho traditions and conventionality of tho East. It tens tne romance 01 an east ern woman and a western man, whoso onnlnrr uina otrnnrm nnd wllOSO life to gether was dramatic.

"My dear," said Tom Weston to hU wife, "I have n noto this morning from Jim Attcrbtiry asking nn Invitation foi his especial friend, tho lion. Donald Ghcstorton, a younger son or somo tlilng of a IirlUflh lord. Please Bend him a bid." "Donald Chesterton! I never heard Mr. Attcrbury Bpcak of having friends among the British aristocracy." Tho function referred to was a large dinner and cotillon to be given by Mrs. Weston. Attcrbury was Mr. Wes ton's bosom friend nnd was privileged to ask of tho Wcstous for what ho choso. The Invitation was sent, and when tho evening camo round Attcr bury brought his friend to tho dinner. Chesterton hnd mild bluo eyes, soft llaxcn hair pnrtcd In tho middle and a cameo cut smooth shnved face. lie woro tho usual British monoclo. "My friend Chesterton," said Atter bury, Introducing him and at the same timo slapping him on tho back famil iarly, "doesn't consider himself a la dies' man. IIo loves to roam, now hunting In Chicago beg pardon, I menu Africa ami now doing battla with the clubbers of Philadelphia I mean tho pirates of tho Malay archi pelago." "What's tho matter with your tongue, Jim?" asked Weston. "Did you drop In nt tho club for refresh ment on your way over?" "Nothing tho matter, I assure you. I only wish to say that, Chesterton being moro at homo in the open than shut up, oven In 11 lino house, Mrs. Weston had better tako him under her wing nt dinner, lie doesn't fly for young ladies." Thero was considerable disappoint ment umoug tho womou guests that tho lion. Mr. Chesterton should havo been retained by tho hostess. But that lady gavo out that, llko many mon of tho British nobility, tho young man was a sportsman and a man's man rather than a womun's man. IIo said ltttlo and seemed to bo keeping hU eye on his Introducer na though ho didn't feel at ease on American ground and umoug American customs. "Wake up, Chesterton," said Atter bury from across tho table. "Wo Amerlcuns, of course, aro Americans, . but wo'ro not so dreadfully different from your London smart set." Chesterton forced u smile, but looked as If ho would prcfor shooting Hons to being oggled by women. Whon the dinner was over aud tho guests were forming for tho cotillon Attor bury took pity on his protege "Chesterton," ho said to Mrs. Wes ton, "hates the cotillon. You soo, whon at home he's obliged to do things he doesn't like. IIo's danced so much at balls in Loudon that ho doesn't' want any of it In America. I'm going to take him up Into the den and lot him smoko." Tho two men went upstairs. Later Attcrbury went down and asked If Chesterton was dancing. Chesterton, ho was told, had not como down. At tcrbury said Chesterton had left him for a moment somo timo beforo nnd had not returned. Tho missing man was not to bo found. Attcrbury Becm cd worried. lie finally told Mrs. Wes ton that Chesterton, bored as he was by social functions, had probably tuk on French leave When tho guests wero gono Attcrbury took Weston asldo and snld: "Do you remember our talk some months ago about tho effect of dross on people's nppenrnnco?" "Yes." "And I bet you n hundred dollars that beforo the winter was over I'd palm off on you a Jail bird?" "Yes." "Well, I've done it." "now? When?" "This fellow Chesterton Is no British swell tit all, Ills mug Is In tho rogues' gnllcry. I brought him hero expecting to keep nn eye on hlin. Somehow or another ho managed to give me the slip nnd" Tom," called Mrs. Weston, "come up hero nt once. We've been robbed." Tho two men looked at each other. Atlerbury turiiod pnle. Weston's face changed from Interest In tho story to interest In what Mrs. Weston was saying, then ho run upstairs. When he enmo down he found his friend walking tho lloor. "You'vo won your bet, old man, but nt considerable cost. All the jowolry that was in a box on my wife's bureau drawer hnu disappeared. It couldn't bo replaced for $5,000." Thero was a constrained pause. "Well," said Attcrbury ns soon as ho could recover from the shock, "wo'U telephone the police I'll mall you a check tonight for $5,000. If tho stuff Is found you can return tho amount." Tho pollco wero telephoned nnd soon got on the truck of the lion. Mr. Ches terton, alius Foxy Pete, nllns Zeb Nip per nnd a number of other nllases. Ho was cventuully caught and tho Jewelry restored. Mr. nnd Mrs. Wes ton went to sco him In prison garb and for Homo time wouIO not bellevo that ho was tho samo man who looked so nrlntocratlc In Atterbury's cast off evening dress. Weston offered to pay the bet, but Attcrbury declined to receive It, nnd whon his friend renowed the offer At tcrbury told him If ho over upoko of It ugaln ho would cut his ncqunlntanco. Mrs. Weston had mnny Inquiries con corning tho handsome Britisher, to all of which she replied Unit nt last ac counts ho was fighting olephnnts In India.
