Hf FIFTEENTH YEAR. McCOOK , RED WILLOW COUNTY , NEBRASKA , FRIDAY EVENING , FEBRUARY 19 , 1897. NUMBER 40 !
W THE RUN IS A MARKER
H HL The Q. and Burlington Run a Special
V from Chicago to Denver.
HV 1,028 MILES . IN LESS THAN 19 HOURS.
K. . Record Has Perhaps Never Been
K Equaled In America on a Run
K ' ' of Such a Very Great
p H& Distance.
JL The C , B. & Q. and Burlington people
H are in fine fettle over their extraordinary
K run made , this week , with a special train
K from Chicago to Denver. And they have
HT a just' occasion for feeling highly grati-
HttL fied and thoroughly pleased with their
HH unusual and perhaps unequuled acconi-
HB plishment. Dashes of a few hundred
BV miles over specially prepared track with
H0 exclusively groomed engines and.rolling
Bft Stock are not ' .uncommon , but it's the
HB uncommon thing indeed for any railroad
HPl to hook up for a thousand mile run , such
KBft as was made first of this week over the
HP Q and Burlington system.
K The special , consisting of. President
V | Perkins' private car No. 98 and engine ,
K left Chicago , Monday morning at 9.58 ,
Hft bearing Henry J. Mayham homeward to
m see his dying son , William B. Mayham
H | in Denver. The fee was $ iooa , and the
BTTSl special was expected to make the run
Vflf I within 24 hours ; but so perfect was every
jr arrangement , so smooth and undisturbed
K IK \ tlle eiltre run tnal tne sPeclal pulled in-
E \ to the Union depot at Denver just 18
K hours and 55 minutes after the train left
k' the Union depot , Chicago , a distance of
V 1,02s miles. The running time includes
E | all stops , change of time , slow-ups , etc. ,
Hfife - and in all probability has no equal in
HK American railroad annals.
BMkX The train left Chicago at 9:58 Monday
BhV morning , arriving at Pacific Junction at
BP 7:07 p. m. , at Lincoln 8:14 p. m. , and
KjY Hastings at 10:00 p. m. Leaving Hast-
HSSr - ings at 10:05 p. m , reached McCook at
HBi 12:15 Tuesday morning and 'Denver at
MS 3:53 a. m. There was only one circum-
H fc stance to mar the superb run , which ex-
BJt * hibits the perfection of modern railroad-
JK ing , and that is the sad fact that the son
Hflk had passed into the future about two
K'\ Iiours before the ai rival of the father , in
f W ' his heroic conflict with time and space ,
Hffr" ' in his frantic desire to see his beloved
HI son once more in the flesh. But this
Hm was not the company's fault.
K At Hastings , the eastern terminus of
Kal ' the Western division , Conductor H. H.
Hf Miller took charge of the special. En-
E gineNo. 210 was coupled on , Dave Mag-
B&- ner at the throttle , and Sid Cole wielding
V | the scoop and pick. The run to Hoi-
H _ f drege of 54 miles was made in even 50
BL minutes. From Holdrege to Oxford on
mm account of slow-order the distance of 24
Hfi miles was covered in 25 minutes. In
tt taking coal at Oxford 4 minutes time
Hk were used ; after which the run of 54
r miles to McCook was made in 51 min-
N ? utes. Thus the whole distance of 132
J X miles was covered in 130 minutes ; and
HT/t § this , too , without allowing for slow-order
JOt or stops. Includin the stops and slow-
B- order the average for the 152 miles was
Kpl about 63 miles an hour. And as ngi-
BA Wr neer Magner expected to pull the special
Hkk on through to Akron , he says he was
BJjL > saving his locomotive for-the grade , and
Sr\ cjuld have made a better performance
PBr for the 152 miles had he known the first
B P % arrangement was changed.
M ' ' - l McCook engine and train crews were
BIEfe changed. Conductor V. H. Solliday as-
HkRK sumed charge , and accompanied the train
E/i into Denver. Engine No. 324 was
b \ coupled on with Charlie Bailey on the
gBiy "v right side and Mart Trammell at the
H0f shovel. The distance to Akron 143 miles
RB/ ' was run in 151 minutes , -one stop of 2
R ; minutes being made at Wray for water.
m This is at an average of 58 miles an hour
HL for the distance , and when it is consider-
K/7 ed that Akron is over 2,000 feet higher
D/t than McCook the performance can be
THl better appreciated.
At Akron Engineer John Meiser and
Fireman Frank Worden with No. 228 re-
K
B Pt placed the 324 and her crew. The dis-
HJt tance from Akron to Denver , 112 miles ,
BNJr was annihilated in 123 minutes , or at an
BBF average speed of 56 miles an hour. This
U includes a 3 minute stop at Roggen for
K water. This was the slowest run made
VflV on the Western division , which easily
f outdistanced all other divisions in the
B system.
H The average speed per hour from
H | Chicago to Hastings was 53 g'miles. From
x Hastings to Denver 57.1 miles , or 3.2
R miles faster on the Western division than
Hf N4 over any other division on the system.
H J f * The distance from Hastings to Denver is
Kl jt 3S7 , the longest division , the time being
Vr " * 408 minutes , including 13 minutes lost in
Hj ( stops. The average time made between
Hl Pacific Junction and Hastings was 52
Hl miles per hour. The best time on this
B division was made between Hastings and
m McCook 63 miles an hour. The average
B for the entire distance was 55.5 miles per
hour , 1,135 minutes being used , includ
ing all stops , change of time , etc.
This division comes In for a large part
of the glory. Great credit is due Master
Mechanic Archibald for the result. He
has well earned a reputation for keeping
the motive power in fine shape and for
having the men to meet any emergency
on the rail.
Traveling Engineer C. A. Dixon ac
companied the special over the entire
division , Train-master J. F. Kenyon go
ing from here to Denver.
All the company's employes take-pride
in the record made and have a part in
the glory won. And especially are those
011 the Western division jubilant , as but
six hours notice was given and no special
arrangements were made , dependence
being simply placed on the uniform ex
cellence of motive power and skill of en
gine men to get there"
And now the boj-s all have their hearts
set on a fast mail train , which it is hoped
the company will put on in the near
future.
In May , 1893 , the New York Central
and Lake Shore made the run between
New York and Chicago , 964 miles. In 19
hours 57 minutes , which has been con
sidered a remarkable long distance rec
ord ; which , however , pales into insignif
icance beside the record made by the Q.
and Burlington , of 1,028 miles in 18
hours 55 minutes *

THEY "FOUND" HIM
Two Culbertson Lads Indicate a Desire to
Incarnadine the Town.
THEY HAVE A VERY BRIEF CAREER
And Doubtless Wish They Hadn't
Made the Effort $25.OO and
Trimmings What They
Drew In Court.
Raymond Lackey and Bert Warnock ,
two would-be toughs from Culbertson ,
came down to hear DillonMonday night ,
and incidentally "to take the town" .
Alter being warned by the marshal to
leave for home , after becoming somewhat
overburdened with stimulants , the couple
drove back to town again , announcing
that they were looking for the marshal.
Their search was soon rewarded. When
the marshal "took them in" and searchcl
them he found loaded revolvers on each
of them. They were lodged in the city
jail , charged with carrying concealed
weapon , and upon subsequent trial were
found guilty , and assessed $25 each and
costs. They will have the pleasure of
working out the total 01 $30 each on the
streets of the city. The probabilities are
that these young chaps will confine their
operations to smaller places in the future ,
and when they again visit McCook , they
will not be so anxious to find the marshal.
Later Warnock has liquidated and
has been released.
There are Better Methods.
The death-bed method of
- scenes bring
ing souls to the Savior does not measure
up to the full privileges of the glorious
gospel of Christ. It has always been
disappointing to the writer to see so many
Christians sojourning among the tombs ,
when the city of the gospel of sweetness
and light , of life and joy , lies basking in
tne beautiful sunlight of God just ahead.
It is just as reprehensible to dwell im
moderately upon the terror of.the Lord ,
as it is error to exclude all else but the
love of God , from the preachingi the
Word. It is better to be constrained byj
the love of God , that reason draw us to a \
reasonable service , than that uncanny
pictures from sad and deformed life shall
take people in anguish to the feet of a
tender and loving Jesus.
To Subscribers of The Tribune.
Readers of The Tribune will please
remember that cash is an essential in
the publication of a paper. The pub
lisher has been very lenient during the
past few years , on account of crop fail
ures and hard times , and as a consequence
quence many hundreds of dollars are
due on subscriptions. We are now com
pelled to request .all who can to call and
make settlement in full or in part. In
view of the facts , our subscribers must
feel the justice and urgency of this re
quest. The Publisher.
A Crowded House.
John Dillon and his comedy company
presented "Wanted the Earth" in the
opera house , Monday evening , to a
crowded house , and for the most part
gave excellent satisfaction. Indianola
and Culbertson had quite a number of
representatives present. The Pythian
Brigade band played three fine and ap
propriate selections for indoor hearing.
It was one of the most notable theatrical
affairs given in our city in years.
Took Them Long to Agree.
Perhaps the most remarkable feature
of the present term of district court was
thelength of time required by thejuries to
come to their decisious. In almost every
case the jury "hung" , and all night ses
sions were held a number of times. Some
of the decisions were only arrived at
after from 36 to 48 hours consideration.
None of the cases were of large import
ance.
Business Changes.
This week , F. M. Colson of The Notion
Store moved from the Strasser building
into the Marquardt building , which has
been newly papered for the new tenant.
L. J. Beck's stationery stock has moved
into the room thus vacated in order to
secure more room. The Notion Store
also expects to spread out some by add
ing groceries to the line now carried.
A New Liveryman.
O. J. Griggs came over from Oberlin ,
Kansas , Monday , with his livery outfit
and occupied the old Smith barn in rear
of the St. Charles hotel , which has been
occupied by F. P. Allen for two years
past. •

Major Cole arrived in the city , last Sat

ried on with renewed vigor and increas
ing interest. The Major has been ad

ple of the Protestant churches , and a
grand work 'is expected to be accom

The Political Horoscope.
The Indianola Reporter of last week
anticipates the joy of next fall's cam
paign by making a few observations ,
valuable or otherwise : Firstly , "The
A. P. A. gang at McCook proposes to
crucify the Pops on a cross made of a
railroad tie and a coupling pin" . Sec
ondly , "The A. P. A. is grooming the
present chief of police in McCook for
county sheriff. If elected he will be all
right" . Thirdly , "It is said that our
Republican bosses at McCook lay claim
to the county treasurer and county judge.
The A. P. A. will select the sheriff and
county superintendent and the Republican -
lican party the county clerk" .
The Old the New.
