Are on a Still Hunt.
Lincoln , Nov. 3. Though the olcc-
tlon is only four days iiwny , there Is
scarcely enough politics discussed
around the capital to create a ripple.
At republican headquarters a dozen
stenographers are busy sending out
the last word to county chairmen , urg
ing them to got out the voters next
Tuesday. Democrats give out the Im
pression that they arc paying no at
tention to state candidates , but are
doing all they can for their county
tickets. If this Is true , the effort will
help their state ticket , and republic-
mis are urged to take no chances butte
to hustle out every voter.

CLOSE CALL OF TRAIN BETWEEN
STANTON AND NORFOLK.
OUAKEMAN HURT IN JUMPING
Owing to a Wonderfully Quick Stop
Made by a Northwestern Engineer
Last Night n Bnd Smnshup Wns
Avoided Trucks Flew off Track.
1 ! > MI Mil'1 iv - . ' ' ii'\ ' |
A serious railroad accident was mi
raculously averted on the Northwest
ern railroad botwocn Stiuitou and Nor
folk last night by a wonderfully quickstep
stop of a loo.omntlvo going at a rate of
forty mill's mi hour. Trainmen be
llovod that a wreck which would pitch
the train Into the ditch , was Imminent ,
ami made a run for the platform to
Jump for tholr liven. Ono of thorn ,
nrahomnn MolHtroleh. did jump from
the roar end of the caboose while It
was going at this high spued and im
a result ho was badly Injured. In
striking the ground with mich force
one of his legs was broken , his hack
was severely strained , his lace wuo
gashed and cut and his body generally
bruised.
Wheels Jumped the Track.
A truck underneath a freight car ,
which had gone off tlm rails , was the
cause for the alarm and would have
wrecked the train but for the fact Hint
the engineer , hauling a light train and
j discovering the accident almost lmmo-
I dlately , was nblo to stop his train be
fore It smashed.
j The train consisted of an engine.
one freight car and a caboose. When
(
, the engine tooted out of town at Stan-
j ton , there wore jiint twenty minutes
Jn which to boat the westbound main-1
i line passenger train Into Norfolk. On
1 this account a high rate of speed was
turned on and the wheels were Hying
'fast ' when , half way between the two
'
towns , the conductor In the caboose'
noticed the rumble and bang of the
wheels under the freight car as they
chugged along on the ties.
] ' Ran for the Door.
I
"The trucks are off , " shouted the
conductor. "We'll have to jump ,
boys. "
j i Aim so they ran to the roar plat-
1 form , ready to drop off the swiftly
' moving train in order to save them
selves from a wreck.
' Mclstrlch did drop off and his foot
plowed Into the earth with tremendous
force , duo to the train's momentum.
And just as his companions were
i , about to follow , the train began to
I slop witli sudden jerks. Then they
j realized that the engineer know of the
danger and that ho could stop the
] 1 cars before the accident occurred ,
j And ho did.
j I With the apparatus that the crow
carried for such an emergency , the
off truck was soon lifted again to the
rails and the train , with Its Injured
man , brought Into town. The work
was done so quickly that tho'passen
ger train was laid out only ten minutes
on account of it.
As a general thing it is said that
with the trucks off and so high a rate
of speed , a wreck Is almost hound to
follow. It Is therefore said by train
men that this was a wonderfully nar
row escape.
Dr. Salter , the railroad surgeon , was
called and the brakeman was ban
daged up.
Names of the trainmen could not bo
learned from headquarters today.

thing for from five to ten trains to lie

Almost every order Issued for the lines
between Omaha and Missouri Valley

DEACON SLOAN OF ZION CITY DIS
COVERS SOMETHING.
DEPENDS ON FOOD OF THE HENS
By Feeding Chickens a Certain Sort
of Food , They Will Lay Eggs With
Orange Flavor Other Foods Will
Make Vinegar Flavors , Eetc.
Chicago , Nov. 4. Deacon Sloan of
Xion City says there Is no reason why
a man should not have an egg with the
fla\or of an orange for breakfast every
morning if his taste leads in that di
rection.
"Simply a question of feeding , " says
the deacon.
The deacon's list of egg flavor Is not
exhausted when ho speaks of the or
ange. A man can have an egg bitter
as vinegar or sharp as a lemon. Ho
can have ono that is sickening in its
sweetness or intoxicating in Its are
ma. In short , there Is no flavor known
to man that cannot bo reproduced In
eggs If the theories of Deacon Sloan
are correct.
The deacon has been the friend of
the chicken for many years , but his
friendship did not ripen into compan
ionship until ono year ago.
Then came the discovery of the dea
con. Ho learned that by giving them
one kind of food that a certain flavor
could bo detected In the eggs. When
ho changed the food , the flavor was
changed. Ho began to experiment.
Success was his own. And then came
mystery. The eggs provided by the
deacon were different In flavor from
all other eggs found InAon. . The dea
con was requested to divulge his se
cret. Ho was standing at the entrance
to the henyard.
"Eggs have different flavors , " he
began.
That was not news. All Eton will
attest to that.
"Almost any flavor can bo secured , "
ho continued. "Tho secret lies In the
feeding. As many flavors can bo secured -
cured as are found In fruits. There Is
no end to the variations to bo found
In the egg. Ono can almost Insert the
popper and salt through the medium
of the food. "
The success of Deacon Sloan has
made chicken-raisers of half the city
of.ion. .

The witnesses called by the state

third trial would liavo been as expen

cut the trial much shorter and sim
mered down the expense.
The second trial was the cheapest

kato trial and therefore a jury was
more easily secured , and fewer law
yers wore employed by the state dur
ing this trial. The cost was $5,1125.07.
The third lilal'H uxponsu came from
