A Nad Accident.
John H. Smith, better known in
this vicinity as Johnny Brady, son of
the widow Brady, who lives three
miles, northwest of this city, met
with a frightful accident between 7
and 8 o'clock Friday evening last
while on duty a yard master for tho
U. P. Co. at this place. He made a
mis-step in jumping from the switch
engine, had his lest foot caught under
the pilot and before the engine conld
be stopped one or more wheels had
passed over the foot. Immediately
following the occurrence he was re
moved to St. Mary's hospital, and
next morning upou examination, the
limb was found to be so badly
mangled tha an amputation was
found necessary, which operation
was performed by Drs. Martyn and
Evans. Under the kind treatment
of the Sisters, he is now doing as
well as could be expected under the
circumstances. Johnny ha3 beon in
the employ of the Union Pacific Co.
for mauy years aud is well thought
of by a!l who know him.
John Herring was manipulating
the engine at the time of the acci
dent, but no blame is attatched to
him as he is considered an unusually
careful man.
Later. Just as the Journal forms
were goiug to the press last evening
we received the sad nows that John
ny Brady had died at G o'clock Tues
day evening. It seems that he re
ceived internal injuries which doubt
less caused his death.
The Teiitlng; of Our Water-
work.
In the presence of the Mayor, the
City Council, the Fire Department
aud citizens generally, and uudor the
supervision of Engineer J. E. House,
of Omaha, our waterworks were
partially tested ou last Friday and
proved to be entirely satisfactory.
But iu order to ascertain if the pumps
will do their work and MirtiHU a
million gallons of water a day,
whether the boiler is economical, an I
the water supply ample, and the
pipes properly laid, a thorough ttst
by au expert lasting at least 24 hour.-
with indicators, meters and ot'ior
scientific instruments, must be uiidd.
Such a test would c.jst from $15'.) to
$200, but wo believe, tor the satisfac
tion aud vindication of all, it would
be money well invested to mike it.
Mr. Ctiarles Schroeder, the contract
or, ha" been rather slow in fulGlling
his contract, bu! for that he is not
altogether accountable, and mide
from that w believe he has f.iith
f'jlly carried out ail hi- agreements

DIED.
Sampson Dee. 1.1th, at her residence
iu Denver, Colorado, Kate I., wife of A.
.1. Sampson, aged 41 years.
The deceased was a daughter of A. C.
Turner, ot this city, aud well known to
many of the Ohio, Iowa, Nebraska and
Colorado readers of the Journal. She
leaves her husband, two daughters and
one son to mourn the loss of a fond wife
and mother.
We quote from the Denver ZViftune
Republican of Dee. ISth:
FUNERAL OF MRS. A.J. SAMPSON.
SAP AND IMPRK&UVK SERVICK3 HELD
YESTERDAY A LARGE ATTENDANCE.
The funeral services of 3Irs. A. .J.
Sampson were conducted yesterday as
follows: Prayer by Dr. G. De La 3Iatyr,
brief discourse by Dr. D. II. Moore, read
ing of 3lr9. Sampson's favorite hymn No.
6.'i4 by Rev. N. A. Chamberlain, remark
by Dr. H.A. Bue.htel, prayer by Dr. A.
1$. Hyde, bencdie'ion by the Rev. Dr. .
De Lh .M;.t r.
The pall bearers were Judge S. II.
Elbert, Judge I. E. Barnum, Hon. Fran.
Church, Hon. 31. N. 3Iegrue, Captain S.
D. Barnes and Dr. J. C. Shattuck.
The house was crowded with friends
and neighbors, sadly eager to pay their
last tribute of respect to the dead, and
evince their tender sympathy lor the
bereaved family. From the opening
prayer to the closing benediction the
words of the speakers were tender and
appropriate to an unusual degree, and
while strongly eulogistic, all felt, with
the Iter. Dr. Moore, that no words could
over-state the regard in which 31rs.
Sampson was held in this community.
Since her death telegrams and letters
from various -parts of this state and else
where have been received by the be
reaved family, of such tenor as to Bhow
that not only in Denver, but wherever
she has lived, her memory is precious,
and of no oue was it ever more truly
said:
"None knew thee but to love thee,
Nor named thee but to praise."
Though always devoted to the family
and the home, of which she was the
center, yet prior to the time when the
disease, which has now proved fatal,
laid its restraining hand upon her (five
years since) she was active in church
iinl social life. Her beauty and grace of
person, her genial manners, her well
stored mind and her charming voice,
rare in its strongly sympathetic quality ;
all these qualities made her welcome in
any circle of cultivated Christian people.
No word ot bitterness ever marred her
conversation. In all her years of suf
fering her sunny temper and her Chris
tian faith were never dimmed. She
talked little or her infirmities, even to
friends, biding them instead, by such
constant cheerfulness and such thought
fulness for others that few realized with
what heroic fortitude she looked daily
into the face of death. Her influence for
good in this city will not soon die; to
those who were nearest, her memory
will be a life long benediction.
