E. O. Custer , formerly on the Western
division , but late of the Third Nebraska ,
has returned from Jacksonville , Florida ,
in bad health , and is now at his home in
Blue Springs , this state , in a serious con
dition.
The high winds have been quite large
ly instrumental in making west bound
trains late recently. With a stiff wind
from the north west and very heavy
trains it has been impossible to make
schedule time.
Last Wednesday night , Morton John
son of Holdrege lost four toes of his right
foot in getting off of No. 3 while the
train was in motion. There is a possi
bility that he may lose the entire foot.
He miscalculated the jump and was
thrown forward , his right foot being
caught by the wheels.
Engineer G. R. Johnson is laying off
for twenty days , to recuperate from the
nervous shock sustained in the collision
at Oxford , last Friday morning , betxveen
the first and second sections of No. i.
It is George's first experience "doing
time" and he is getting along as well as
one might be expected to be who hadn't
gotten a day before in twelve years
engine service.
Last Monday morning a traveling ped-
ler whose name we were unable to learn ,
but whose home we believe is in Custer
county , met with a serious loss. He had
camped over Sunday near the mill and
had tied his horses together and turned
them loose. When No. I went out Mon
day morning the ) vain seems to have set
them crazy and they rushed up on the
track in front cf the engine and were
killed. The man had his wagon hauled
to town and he took the train for home.
He hopes to get a cheap team and take
up his work again. Holdrege Citizen.
First and second sections of No. I , last
Friday morning , had a slight collision in
front of the Oxford station , in which the
way-car attached to the first section was
considerably damaged and the adjoining
Pullman slightly. No one was injured.
Engineer G. R. Johnson and Fireman
Walter Stokes of section two jumped ,
when the accident seemed to be unavoid
able , and were unharmed. The accident
was caused by the second section coming
into the station at a two rapid speed , and
notwithstanding Engineer Johnson made
every effort to stop , the momentum was
too great , and a slight clash was the re
sult. The trains were delayed about
three hours.
Mrs. Elizabeth Moraud died at the
home of her daughter , Mrs. David Reese ,
118 .South Merchant street , yesterday

The funeral was held at the home this
afternoon at 3:00 : oclock , conducted by
Rev. A. A. Powers. The burial took
place in Maplewood cemetery. She was
a native of Tennessee and the mother of
ten children. Besides her daughter , who
lives here , only two of the members of
her family attended the funeral. They
were Wm. Morand of Minneapolis , and
Mrs. Ella Irwin of McCook Neb. Mrs.
Morand was a member of the Methodist
church. Etnporia ( Kas. ) Daily Gazette ,

W. J. Crawford started to assist in
loading some Texas steers at Akron , the

An Addition to the Depot.
In order to make more room at the
division headquarters , a large wing will
at once be built to the present station
house. The wing will be extended on to
the north and will be about thirty feet
square in dimension , two stories high.
The new wing will accommodate the Bur
lington Relief department two rooms
down stairs being devoted to that pur
pose and the space upstairs will be used
by Superintendent Campbell as his pri
vate office. The rooms now used by the
dispatchers will be given to the opera
tors and the dispatchers' office will be
moved into the room now occupied by
the superintendent as his private apart
ments. This will be more convenient
all around and will get the departments
of the division all under the same roof.
The work will be pushed at once.
