No. 39 , which went west as -'double header" in charge of Engineers Noren and lloge , Friday , struck a section hand named Jacob Cook , who was shoveling snow at Culbertson station , rendering him insensible , and cutting his scalp slightly , but not otherwise injuring him. Considering the fact that the train was making pretty good speed , and that the man was struck by the cylinder of the engine , at the base of the brain.it is re markable that Cook was not killed. Dr. Willey went up to see him , Saturday noon , and reports the injured man in a fair way to rapid recovery. LATER The injured man was brought down to this city , the first of the week , and is now at the E.iting House , under the cave of the company's surgeon. Later developments show the man's brain to be seriously affected , but his ultimate recovery is expected. Buy one of those sweet , harmonious Kazoos at McCracken's.

The storm , which came from the north west , was preceded by a soaking rain from the southeast ) . Railroad men re port a much heavier snow fall , west of here , and a terrific wind , which tilled the cuts , thereby retarding the progress of all trains materially , during Friday. Also that thousands of cattle had drift ed down against the company's fence , from the range north , causing considera ble suffering. In fine , the storm was severe for any season.
