What threatened to be a bad railroad

near Nebraska City , by the presence of

George McMillen of the B. & .M. Shortly -
ly after the passenger train for the south
left Nebraska City , the rails spread and
the engine left the track. Just in front
was a bridge some sixty feet long over a
deep hollow and Engineer McMillen at
once realizing that to stop the train
would throw it into the chasm , opened
the throttle and the engine crossed the
bridge , jumping from tie to tie until the
entire train was safely across , when the
train wasstopped. 'she tank and cars
did not leave the rails. There were some
thirty or forty persons on the train.
Much credit is due Engineer McMillen
for his prompt action.
