'l'he wreck was caused by a bridge giving way over a dry creek that was swollen from a cloud burst. 'l'he conditions were not known un tit the bridge began to give way after the engine - gine had run onto the bridge. 'l'he engine and two cars filled with passengers went down. Onlr four of the passengers and crew escaped death , by drowning. ' 1'he two sleepers and diner stopped - ped at the brink of the stream. A. C. Hapg.ood , the painter , is a demonstration of the benefits deri ved from Ii heral ad vert ising. lIe has a good trade amI is an artist not backward in letting the public know it. Since he first struck the town se\'eral months ago he has a < l\'ertised his business - ness liberally and as a result he has not been idle. IIe has done a number of large contracts in the countr.r and city and always has contracts ahead. He is now about to complete a large contract - tract for the Adams ranch which will require o\'er one hundred gallons of paint. S. D. Butcher , author of the Pioneer IIistory of Custer County , was in the city the first of the week. Mr. Butcher is getting up a boolc1et with farm and ranch \'ieWB of Custer and Buffalo coun- ties. Short historical sketches of the indiddual owners of the farm and ranches appear on the page with the picture. ' ] 'he mechanical - cal work of the boolc1et is neatly done and presents a ver } ' attractive - tive appearance. Many of the dews show the sod house and its surroundings in the early settle- ment. On the opposite page is shown his large frame house , barns and wind mill a nd orchard as they appear to-day. 'l'lte contrast - trast is not only fine but true.

Mr. Campbell 11lforms us that a meeting will be held at the Downey school house Saturday to discuss building' an electric railway line from Georgetown to conncct with the n. & M. rail- road. IIc thinks the most feasible - ible point will be at Mason City. 'l'he distance is about thc same as to Broken Bow and as the country IS mnch more thickly settled between Georgetown and Mason he figures the funds can be more easily secured on that route to finance the enterprise. They have given up hopes of securing an extensian of the U. P. from Pleasonton. Jules Haumont of Elton , in speaking of the rain last Ii'riday night in his vicinity says that at lea t ten inches of raiu fell inside - side of two hours and others put it at twelve inches. lIe says that Clear Creek at 'Vood Spen- cers was six feet higher than ever kn0\V11 before since Mr. Spencers residence there , which began in 1879. He says the corn in his vicimty was not all dr- stroyed by the hail but that it was all more or less damaged. Another rain and hail visited ha.t locality Monday night , the h"lil stones being as large as hen eggs , and very thick but , did no precept able damage to crops. 'l'he next morning he and his nephew found in the vicinity of the lagoon eighteen sea gulls that had been killed b. } ' the hail and saw 1I1any more crippled.
