tho i ooplo upon tho train escaped
with their liven.
The east-rjounU passenger, consist
ing of bitggi'go ear, wmokor, chair car
and thico l'ullntana for Omaha, was
coining down the north side of the
river about 40 miles an hour, regard
less of rain, hail or wind, when about
thrco miles west of Iouirtville tho
engineer saw a water spout coming'
from tho hills, sweeping down a ra
vine liko a mountainous oeor.u wave.
Ho put on the air, reversed Itisencine,
shut oil the steam and jumied from
tho engine, together witn the fireman,
ju-it in time to s-ive their ilv.s, as tho

train ran on to it the track slid sev

Tho head light wan bro'ten oil and
rolled into the river but a few feet
away.
The b ggage ear turutd over and
was badly wrecked, one siJ3 being lit
erally demolished. The baggageman
and ox pressman were not injured in
the least. The expressman had in his
chai se $125,000 in gold but none of it
got awiiy. Tho smoker and chair car
both left tho track and tipped partial
ly over, shaking the pas.-eneers up
considerably but injuring none of
them. Tho sh oi.O' s all r emained upon
tho track and no injury was done to
them. Had the tiniti been struck i3'
the water spout there is little boubt
but it wonid have been swept, iuto the

The engine was a new ono, No. 90.'5
and this was her iirM t ip aficreoming
out i f the shoos.
Mmt Streight, our genial post
oHieo clerk was on the train when
the wreck occured coming down from
Vi'ouih Head, where he had heen
spending Sunday.
Jake Brekenfeld was at Louisville,
spending Sunday, and went out and
took a few snap shots of the wreck
with his kodak. A new track was laid
around the wreck, and today trains are
ruuninsr on time. Hut the wrecking
crew has not yet succeeded in getting
the engine and cars on the track.
Marks on tho trees in the vicinity of
tho wreck, where the immense volume
of water came sweeping down, show
that the volume was six feet high.
A sidetrack to the stone quarry sev
eral hundred feet north of the main
track, where the wreck occurred, was
broken away and washed down nearly
to the main track. This will give
some idea of the force of the water,
and what it would likely have done
had it struck the train.
Death of Mrs, T. J. Thomaft.
Fr'm Monday's Daily.
The many friends of Mr. and Mrs.
T. J. Thomas were shocked this morn
ing to learn of the sudden death of
Mis Thomas, who was thought to be
getting better f im an illness not
necessarily serious in its nature. The
dread messenger came unannounced
and without warning. Mrs. Thomas
had teen up and was going back to
hed about 6 o'clock this morning, and
as she sat upon the side of the bed she
seemed to faint and fell over. Her
daughter was had'y frightened and
fainted, a younger member of the fam
ily called a physician at once, and
when lie arrived the daughter had
recovered, but the mother had gone
to tho better world, heart failure being
tho immediate cause of dissolution.
The deceased, Albina 1. Thomas,
was tho eldest daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Ij G. Todd, and was the first
white girl bom in Cass county, the
date being February 27, 1S56. She
was married to T. J. Thomas Novem
ber 20, 1S73, and six children survive
her viz: George, Susana, Galena, Vic
tor, Zillah and Sylvia, the latter being
the youngest is eight years of age.
The deceased was a model wife and
mother, ever forgetful of self and
thoughtful of the comfort and hap
piness of otheis. No mother could
have been more devoted to her hus
band and children, and it is with deep
est regret of the entire community
that her death is noted.
Tho funeral will occur Wednesday
afternoon at 2 o'clock from the resi

Hold Thievery.
The disappearance of Mr. Sprlecko's
herd of cattle, which has attracted so
much attention in the local press the
past few days, is one of thofte myster
ies in criminal circlos which is hard
to fathom. Mr. Spriecke, after the
cattle had been miusod several days,
advertised hta loss in tho Courier at
Louisville. From what wo can learn
of the circumstances, Mr. Spriecke
has a very indefinite idea of when his
cattle Vtrayed." Investigating tho
case today we learn that a bunch of
cattle closely answering their de
scription was shipped out ovor tho
B. & M. iu this city for South Omaha
on election day, April 5. The cattle
were billed out by a party whose
name was given as James Martin. He
is not recognized by parties acquain
ted with stock shippers in this com
munity. The affair is shrouded in
mystery and it is more than probable
that the shipment made from this
city is the stock Mr. Spriecke is offer
ing a liberal reward for. The sheriff
has the matter in hand and while the
thief may not be apprehended at this
late date, Mr. Spriecke will soon
know what became of his cattle. The
shipment here will be traced to the
purchaser in South Omaha and as
the cattle were not fat they will be
found doubtless in some man's feed
yard. It is the boldest piece of
thievery ever perpetrated in the
county and bad Mr. Spriecke been
more prompt in notifying the officers,
the thief might have been caught, as
he has had so much time to get away,
his apprehension is next to impos
sible.

A Valuable Invention.
Alba R. Young, son of Frank Young
jr., of Murray, has recieved notice
from Washington to the effect that his
patent on a corn planter attach men'.
has been granted. The attachment is
very simple and can be quickly at
tached. It consists of two discs which
follow the planter and heaps loose dirt
up in the row which will prevent the
corn washing out. He went to Omaha
today to see about the manufacture of
his invention intending to put the at
tachment on the market.
The Junction Fire.
Further reports from the Junction
show that the depot caught Qre down
beneath the platform from a passing
engine. All the books and records
were saved from up stairs together
with the tickets and ticket cases from
below. Had there been any suitable
hose with water near by, the building
could have been saved. The old rub
bish is being cleared away and the
fourth depot over there will soon be
built.
Sheriff Wheeler returned Friday
evening from the state penitentiary,
where he delivered McComb over to
the warden. McComb felt first-rate
until he got inside the walls and saw
the great iron doors close behind him,
then his heart failed him. He real
ized all at once what the four years
sentence meant, and he tore up with
evident effort. His head was shaved
and his clothes exchanged for a striped
suit, but the kind of work he will have
to do was not learned.
On the morning of Feb. 20, 1895, I

second afforded complete relief. In a
short time I was able to be up and about

How They IluwL
Did you ever notice how a pig will
squeal when you pull its scrawny little
tail? And when it devo'ops into a full
grown hog and you fail to dolo out the
required amount of slop, it jjive vent
to full-grown squeals and loud, bois
terous grunts.. From the (squeak-,
squeals and tho vigorous grunts of the
"fusion" organ in this city, I am led
to infer there is a small democratic
sty here overcrowdoJ with this class
of quadrupeds. They are mad as w ild
boars because they c in not longer
manipulate the pops of this city, as
elsewhere, and have proceeded to
roast them to a soal brown. Not only
that, but they have taken occasion to
hop onto me all spraddled out because I
have dared to assert myself in opposi
tion to their nefarious schemes for
office-getting. I trust they will keep
on with their abuse, because I believe
and trust It will be the means of show
ing to the honest populists tho cloven
feet and the spiked appendixes of the.s
would-bo reformers.
Those novices in the cause of reform
accuse me of being "sore" because I
failed to get a job at the hands of the
demo-pop gang now in charge of the
state's affairs. Well, now, admitting
this as true, when it is known through
out the state that I was a populist be
fore these political demo-pop pigmies
shed their political swaddlings, why
should I not make a kick if I honestly
believed the wire-pullers and machine
workers were laying plans to rob hon
est populists throughout tho state of
that which rightfully belonged to
them the reward of labor well done.
But these fellows know as much
about my position regarding state jobs
as a hog does about latin. They have
probably never learned of the sacri
fices I have made in the interest of
populist supremacy in this state; they
have never hoard of tho promises
made to me or the refusals I have
made of certain positions. Be that as
it may, I trust these political amateurs
and political pilferers will get all the
offices they Want, but not with the aid
of the honest populists of this or any
other state. As for me, I have as
much use for a republican shyster as I
have for a democratic black-leg, po
litically speaking. Neither lepreeent
my ideas, or those of my pop friends,
on money or competitive reform.
I remember well when the demo
crats of this state laid down with the
republicans, in hopes of getting a few
loaves and fishes. Have we, as pops,
not the same right to lay down with
the republicans, if we wish, in order
to repudiate a gang" of political huck
sters, who wish to use us as cats-paws
to extricate their chestnuts?
They seem to be awful sore because
I went into tho Lincoln Journal with
a communication to air iny views and
denounce their vituperative slang
against populists, whom I believe to be
populists from principle only. I did
so because there is no papar in the
city, unless it be, possibly, the News,
where myself and friends could give
voice to our grievances, did they con
tain a sentiment diametrical to views
and wishes of the democratic ma
chice.
They class me as a populist boss.
Thanks, gentlemen. If such is the
case I sure have you faded. Rjcent
developments show that you are no
boss over the democratic forces and as
to bossing the pops well, a nincom
poop could do better than you have
lately done.
Whom the gods would destroy they
first make mad. Continue to tear your
hair; roast the pops to a fare-you-well.
Call them knaves, fools, villains any
old thing; it will help you to get into
congress, and sich. Tear your hair,
scratch the dirt like a cat; give vent
to your pent up wrath, then go off and
soak your head. Some of weuns will
be heard from when the next vote is
counted. Huckixs.
