THE BURLINGTON HARD HIT
The Storm Center Between Holbrook and Arapahoe
on the flain Line
THE BRANCHES ALSO SEVERELY DAHAGED
Miles of Roadbed Washed Away--A Number of Bridges and Approaches in the
TotalBranch Traffic Entirely Suspended
Since Friday oflast week the Burling
ton has had the greatest disarrangement
of service on the MoCook division over
experienced since tho road was pushed
through to Denver in 18S2 And at this
timo distance the work of the floods is
still felt
As to tho main line the storm center
was between Ilolbrook and Arapahoe
just east of Holbrook where the Deer
creek crosses the track and meanders on
to empty into tho Republican river At
this point on last Friday night late after
tho passage of No 5 there was an un
precedented flood which carried away
n number of hundred feet of grade to a
denth of many feet All tho rest of tho
night next day and on into the night a
flood of water rushed over the tracK
Late Saturday night after No 13 had
passed over and escaped by a scratch
another flood of oven greater volume
came down from Deer creek and undid
everything accomplished up to that
time in the way of cribbing etc and
washed away additional feet of grade
Then followed for many hours a great
rush of water through the openings in
the grade and over the grade at places
coverinc about two miles m extent
Nothing was accomplished in the way of
repairs Saturday night or Sunday and
it was Monday morning before any sort
of communication was established across
the washouts at this place Since Mon
day however traffic has been resumed
all trains being late and passage of the
washouts being very slow Sunday

THE
SAVING
HABIT
Should be encouraged in all possible
ways Like good morals and manners
the instruction should begin in the home
As early habits mold the future crreracter
so do those who early acquire the saving
habit lay the foundation for future suc
cess Many a boy has saved enough from his small earnings
to give him a liberal education or to make a start in business
of his own Persistent saving opens the way to countless
possibilities in success and many a young man owes his start
in life to his having opened a savings accouut and adhered to
a strong determination to add to regularly and systematically
the first deposit made We invite your savings accounts
