Singular Coincidence."
. Two bodies, one that of a woman
and the other a man, lay side by side
in the express car attached to train No.
42. east bound bunday morning. 1 lie
remains of the man were taken off here
for shipment to Deadwood, Those of
the woman were destined to some point
in Illinois.
The circumstances surrounding the
death of both parties are tragic, and the
disposal of their bodies brought about
peculiar instances, lite woman came
from Montana, where, a few day ago,
while out hunting with her husband
she was accidentally killed by him.
The other party came from British
Columbia, and he too met with an ac
cidental death by being shot by his wife
while on a hunting trip. On the train
was the bereaved husband of the
woman he killed, and also the bereaved
wife of the husdand she had shot to
death in the same manner. Neither
knew of -the singular conditions until
they were made known on the trip.

Death of Trainmaster Murphy.
D. Murphy, trainmaster for the
Burlington at Dondwood, died this
morning at 2 o'clock. He was operated
on Wednesday morning for appendi
citis which caused his death. Mr. Mur
phy was 37 years of age and entered
the employ of the company on the Mc
Cook division when a boy, working with
an extra gang. In 1897 he was made
roadmaster of the Black Hills division,
filling the position until last May when
he was appointed trainmaster. He was
regarded as an exceptionally good rail
road man and was universally liked,
bis friends being numbered by the
score. A wife and several small chil
dren are left to mourn, The funcra
will take place at Broken Bow to
morrow. Trying the New Cure for Drunkenness
A few days ago this office received a
letter from Gus Uecker asking that his
copy of the Independent bo changed
from O'Neill to the asylum at Lincoln.
Gus is the first one to suffer sentenco
under the dipsomaniac law from this
part of Nebraska. Last week his wife
swore out a complaint charging him
with habitual drunkeness, he was tried
and sentenced under this law, and
Sheriff Hall took him to Ins new
boarding place last Wednesday. His
sentence is for three years or till cured.
Jas. E. Hughes was arrested on the
same complaint and under Bimilar cir-
camstanccs, and sentence suspended
for'two weeks to allow him to take
treatment at home. So far Mr.
Hughes has been doing nicely and
strong hopes are entertained that Jim
will be able to escapo going to the
asylum. A man given this chance
ought to be able to overcome the habit
and we believe Jim will do it. 'O'Neill

WORD or two
about the new styles-
Colars and lapels are
larger. There is greater
breadth across the chest,
but shoulders are shap-
ed more to the lines of
the figure. Coats are cut
longer. Single and dou
ble vents are deeper.
Colorsprovide for every
taste; grays, brown and
green mixtures seem to
be well to ' the front in
the race for popularity.
-Mixtures in tweeds are mov'
ing nicely. Blues and blacks
are also much in favor. Th-double-breasted
3-button sack
is the main style. The college
cut comes next.
