The i-oasting season fairly opened last week , Willow avenue being the merry scene. The sport has not developed to so much of a craze jet as last season , but on s ( > v era ) evenings there was quite a crowd. A large number of "travelers" carried the gay loads down the hill at railway speed. The tooling of honi . ringing bells , merry laughter , shonls and occasional .screams of those oapsi/.od , made the avenue lively , while bright lights added to the charm of the scene. Old and young , married and single , seemed to alike enjoy the coasting. Ono evening some of the ladies appeared in coasting costumes of white. If the cour.-o and weather are favorable the sport will bo at its height this.eek. . rovi.vc r.vr.NTs wnnorrMiAPows. The coming public event of tins season is the charity ball to bo held in Masonic hall on Thnrsda.v evening of this week. This event being for "s\\eel charity's sake" should be patroni/.cd by everybody who can rake up Js-.M , as the * nn"erin { * among the poor during the cold snap just passed lias been = o "great that each and every individual who has the least inter est in Council Hlnll's should put his oi lier shoulder to the wheel and heln inako it a success. "Kyory little helns. " The fact that the lirst movement for this event was started by a lady , Mrs. Dr. Macrae , and that movement was alone nntij after she hafl .secured the hall , the music , "tc. , should bo encouragement for the ladies of this city to help push the ball to success. There's no doubt but that it will be a success , but with the help and support worthy of it it will be a grand ail'aiiand ono of which every resident of this city will feel proud. What promises to be the most import ant social event of the season will , in all probability , take place in a few weeks , the particulars of which will bo an nounced in the IJii : : later.

Slaughtering Horses , About 1 i o'clock sau-.y ; : ! morning , as n Koek Island switch engine with two cars attaei-.jti bur ! , ' ! down Was : : ; ? to the slock yards on die Northwestern stock yards side track , the head car was struck by a Wabash freight train on the main line on its way to the transfer , The col lision took place at the crossing of these two tracks on Fifteenth avcmto and south Fifteenth .street. The car that was struck contained horses that were billed to ( ! . W. Jvlston , Columbus , Neb. , and were loaded at Columbus Junction , Iowa. Nineteen of the hor.scs got away , but all have been found except three , One hor.-e was killed outright , while two of the injured ones had to bo killed on reaching the block yards , There is no llagman stationed at tlio crossing noraro iliero any signals. He- fore crossing , the train ? are supposed to stop ono or two hundred feet away and whistle , which the Hock Lsland trainmen claim they did , while the Wabash did not whittle or flop at all. The Wabasn people claim that their engine was on the crossing when the Hock Island struck it. Which is which and who Is who will probably only be settled by an investiga tion into the facts , as no disinterested spectators were on hand , and only two crews know anything about the details of how the accident occurred. A general agent of one of the roads on which the accident occurred , yesterday told a HIK : representative that no matter who was to blame , each of the crews should bo laid otF , as there was no doubt , in his mind , that all hands on both trains were in the cabs by the lire at the time of the accident. . _ _ _ _ Partial lllockiulc.
