Prof. E. V. Hunt, field lecturer of the
Nebraska State University, ' vVe can
safely say without exaggeration, that
be is one of the most thoroughly posted
expert agriculturalists of our day, com

has for many years been familiar with
western Nebraska conditions and is an
enthusiast over possibilities of the
development of this country. So lucid
were his statements of facts and so
logical his deductions that those who
heard him could uot but have conn

Last Sunday afternoon at Bingham
occurred an accident that brought the
gloom of unexpected bereavement to a
hnppy home in Alliance and threw a
pall of sadness over the entire city.
Conductor Win. S, Cruickshank, in
charge of a heavy freight train, put hie
head out of the cupola of his way car,
when he was caught by a box car
standing on (ho siding and which side
swiped his train. Death was instanta
neous. The remains were at once
brought back to Alliance by the other
trainmen and were mot at the station
by hundreds of sorrowing and synu
pathizing people,
K'cv. Dr. Boguc, paster of the First
Presbyterian church; conducted an im
pressive funeral service at the home on
Monday afternoon, after which the re
mains were taken to Lincoln for inter
ment, accompanied ly the grief-stricken
wife, Undertaker Darling and
others.
Wm. S. Cruickshank was 31 years,
rnwJSriths and 19 days of age at the
otjs untimely death. He was first
employed by the C B. & 0- railroad
company, in the capacity oi brakeman,
in September, 1900. In October, 1903,
he was promoted to conductor in which
capacity he has since been a faithful
and efficient employe. He was held in
high esteem by his superior officers
and other railroad men with whom he
worked. Beautiful floral offerings, as
a testimonial and tribute to his mem
ory, were made by the attaches of the
Western Union Telegraph and the dis
patcher's officers.
He leaves a wife and a five year old
daughter to mourn his demise, to
whom, as well as to his parents at Lin
coln, The Herald extends heartfelt
condolence in this hour of their inex
pressible grief.
