THREE ENGINES IN A. WPECK.
Singular Result of Failure to Protect
the Rear End of a TrainThree
Engine Crewe Luckily
Escape Unhurt.
Three B.AM, engines are in the
shops for repairs because of a
triune wreck that occurred at the
Union depot about 8 o'clock yester
day morning.
Just by sheer good luck no one
was severely hurt, but the smash-up
will make a $10,000 hole in the com
pany's treaaHry. A misplaced
switch was the cause.
The outgoing Lincoln passenger
train was standing on the first
track in front of the depot, and the
engine, No. 108, in charge of
Engineer Frank Kulin and Fireman
C. A. Erwin, had been detached and
pulled ahead to take water.
Engineer W. T. Lee and Fireman J.
M. Fair, on No. 19, had just pulled
in from South Omaha with a com
bination baggage and express car
which was to go south on the
Kansas City road, and stopped a
few feet from No. 108, waiting for an
opportunity to pr.ll up to the tank.
The switch behind No. 19 was left
open, and at this ' interesting
juncture a freight train from the
wet came in sight around the
sharp curve only a few rods away.
On the engine, No. 243, were
Engineer George Driffson and
Fireman Dolan, and an attempt
was made to stop when the mis
placed switch was discovered, but
it was on a down grade, the rails
were slippery with frost and the
engine of the freight crashed into
No. 19 at a speed of twelve or fifteen
miles an hour.
The shock threw No. 19 and the
combination car back against No.
108, and the damage was done. The
engine crews jumped just before
the craHh came and were uninjured,
with the exception of Fire
man Dolan, whose left wrist
was severely sprained.
Engine No. 243 was very badly
damaged. The front end was en
tirely torn away, she was thrown
from her forward trucks aud the
drivers left the rails. The entire
machine was badly wrenched and
will have to be entirely overhauled.
Steam was kept up, however, and
the engine was able to run to the
shops when replaced on the rails a
few hours later.
Nos. 19 and 108 both had their
headlights and pilots smashed.
The combination cat lost both plat
forms and waB considerably disar
ranged. The first car of the freight
train was a load of corn, and the en
tire forwaid end of it was torn away
and several wagon loads of yellow
kernels were scattered over the sur
rounding neighborhood.
The wreck did not delay travel to
any great extent, and at noon all
evidences of it had been cleared
away.
The engineer of the freight ex
pected that the switch would be set
as usual to throw his train to the
second track, and the sharp curve
prevented him from seeing it until
he was almost upon it. Heclaimcd
that he was running no faster than
usual through the yards, though
there seems to be a disposition in
certain quarters to censure him in
this particular. He had a light
train, which alone prevented a
more serious accident, as greater
headway would have insured the
smashing of the train of passenger
coaches only a couple of car
lengths from the water tank.
The union depot escaped without
a scratch. Omaha Bee.
ARRESTED AT BROKEN BOW.
W. U. Avery Is Arrested, Charged
With Seduction.
W. C. Avery, who will be remem
bered by the citizens of Plattsmouth
as the man that compiled the last
city directory, has been arrested,
charged with seduction. Avery
ran a hotel at Greenwood, but was
compelled to quit the business on
account of carrying on an irregular
saloon. He went from Greenwood
to Broken Bow, where he has been
running a saloon. He was brought
to Oreenwood last night by Sheriff
Halliday of Custer county.
While Avery was running a hotel
at Greenwood, it is alleged that he
h id in his employ a widow named
Williams, who had always borne a
good reputation. She was induced
by Avery to fill the place of a wife
without having complied with the
usual formalities. When Avety left
Greenwood he made faithful prom
ises to the widow that he would
right all wrongs, but he seems to
have been absent-minded, and Mrs.
Williams proceeded to find him and
bring him to justice.
Mrs. Williams being in a delicate
condition and liable to be a charge
on the cot nty, the commissioners
have caused his arrest and intend
to make him right his wrongs or
suffer the consequences.
Tub Herald respectfully calls
the attention of its readers to an ac
count of the battle of Stephenson's
Depot. There are several members
of the 91st regiment living in this
city, that participated in the battle.
AMUSEMENTS.
f'Jephthah'aand His Daughter" at the
Waterman Laet Night.
A very fair house witnessed the
rendition of Hull's cantata, "Jeph
thah's Daughter," at the Waterman
last night The cantata was pre
ceded by several vocal numbers by
W. A. Derrick and Mrs. E. B. Burris
and a cornet solo by Mr. Eigen
broadt. The singing of "My Little
Woman," by Mr. Derrick, won a well
merited encore, as did the solo of
Mr. Eigenbroadt. The orchestra,
under the direction of Prof. Beck,
did very well, considering that it is
a new organization and has not had
the experience necessary to smoothe
over the rough joints. The cantata
itself is not much of a piece. A few
of the numbers are of first grade,
but the music as a whole is not sus
tained. The leading character,
that of Iphigenia, Jephthah's
daughter, was played by Mrs. S. E.
Clappe, directoiess of the entertain
ment, in a most finished manner.
Her acting, especially in the last
act, was superb for an amateur. As
Jephthah, W. A. Derrick was a dis
appointment. He has a fine bass
voice, but his ability as an actor
was away below par. Mr. Pettee, as
the Prophet, acted his character
fairly well. He is admirably fitted
to the role, so far as appearance is
concerned, as his real whiskers lend
him a very ancient appearance.
Frank Dickson, in the character of
Abdon, Jewish prince, was fine.
Frank has real talent itl him. J. K.
Pollock died like a man on the
battlefield; but then, most anybody
could die happy under the circum
stances. Harry Jaquette, as
Camp Guard, played like an
actor. Miss Grace Pike, as Naomi,
displayed great talent and by her
acting and beauty captured the
audience. On the whole, the exhi
bition was as good as any amateur
performance can be, and Mrr.
Clappe and Miss Pike are to be con
gratulated upon their success.
Midnight Alarm.
People, were turned away from
the Grand opera house at both af
ternoon and evening performances
yesterday. "The Midnight Alarm"
was produced. The piece is of the
Spectacular melo-dramatic class
with fine scenic and mechanical ef
fects, among which are the Brook
lyn bridge Bcene with boats plying
on the East river, the draw bridge
Bcene and the engine house scene,
in which is shown a fire engine
dragged by handsome horses. The
cast of players is above the average,
and all are equal tothe tasks as
signed them. "The Midnijrht
Alarm" will be repeated to night
and at matinee and evening per
formances to-morrow. Svracus
Journal.
Secure your tickets for Friday
night, and Bee a great play.
