A ten year old boy had a most miraculous cscapo from death lato Monday afternoon at Gothonbunr. As train No. 9 was nassincr that point mak ing about thirty miles an hour tho boy ttempted to cross tho track two blocks west of tho depot with n pony and small spring wagon. Tho pony got clear of tho eneino but tho wairon was smashed to pieces nnd it appears was knocked from under tho boy with such forco as to throw him headlong to the front of tho engine. In some unac countable way ho slid under tho front of the engine and passed through tho hole surrounding tho cinder hopper nnd when the train was stopped three biocKS west -he was found under tho cow catcher with his shoulder on tho front engine truck journal with one leg caught nn the pilot Draco and his arms around tho journal holding on for dear life but not sevcrly hurt as was thought the time: only n alight cut on his head. Engineer Whito got under the cowcatcher and re'eased him so hat tho fireman could pull him back tho samo way ho went down. Whilo ho was scared speechless ho did not loso conclousncss. "The Man of the Hour." Sun, moon nnd stars will all shine bright on "Tho Man of tho Hour," when it comes to tho Keith Theatre on aturday, Oct. lflth, for tho first timo hero. "Tho Man of tho Hour" is ab solutely now nnd original, bright, witty nnd abovo all, clean. Tho play is sus tained by its own real merit, not de pending upon any clap-trap or scenery to please the audience, ine dialogue brilliant nnd at times excruciatingly funny. It is a play of real life, and i' Impossible to witness it without lisn- out prototypes in real life of tho char acters that are depicted on tno stage. t haB been termed ' 'America's greatest av and bears out to tho letter this ascription. It is safe to say that no ther play in tho Enclish languago pre sents so powerful, so clear nnd so ef fective an object lesson in every day life. It fnirlv bristles with brlcht. sparkl'ng comedy, strong heart interest, under sentiment, and is tun ot uveiy tuations. Manatrers William A. Brady and Joseph R. Grismor's special cast will appear here. Cost of Primary Election. The Omaha Bee has collected fieures howlng tho cost of tho lato primary in ebraskn. tho total amounting to near ly $57,000 in soventy-thro counties re porting. Tho co9t in Lincoln county was $1,355.00 and tho number of votes cast was 1,300, so tint tho cost for each voto was slightly in excess ot one nllar. Tho primary method of nominating officers is probably nil right, bit in a sparsely settled nnd largo county like incoln it is a question whether tho in terest taken justifies the expense. Add to the $1,355 primary expense tho ex pense of the election and you havo a total of $2700 each year.
