IRONCLAD
ALARM
fsg. rjrMj j aqpSJiiBs57' g..
I was in a house last week where
they had three nickel alarm clocks.
One had lost its bell, the other its
legs, the third was so clogged with
dust it couldn't tell the truth.
There should be one more alarm
clock in that house and that's an
IRONCLAD.-It's knockproof, it's
duotproof , it rings to beat the band.

District Foreman McGraw expected
to receive an order from Omaha order
ing the shops opened yesterday morn
ing, but tho order failed to arrive. It
is believed however, that tho shops will

of this week. For several days past
part of the force has been employed
one day, and the other part the follow
ing day, thus giving nil tho men n
chance to make n little time. This
same practice has been in force at tho
round house.
Engineer HI Smith related a rather
peculiar incident Saturday. On the
fourteenth of March last year he took
out train No. 17 from this terminal,
was caught in the blizzard and did not
reac h Sidney until fifty-threo hours
after leaving North Platto. While
stuck in the drift all the employes of
the train including the dining car
force became pretty well acquainted.
Last Saturday, Feb. 14th, just eleven
months later, Engineer Smith came
down from Sidney with train No. 18,
and every employe on tho train, includ
ing the dining car cooks and waiters,
were tho same men who were on the
train that had been stuck in the drift
eleven montds before.
