The infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Thomas MeCarl died at ( ( o'clock yester
day morning from water on the brain.
The baby was siclc about a week. The
father is a messenger on the Milwau
kee. The funeral will take place at U
o'clock this afternoon from the Planter's
hotel. All friends are * invited without
further notice.
The electric light swung across Pearl
btroct has ceased its daz/.ling. It was
really not needed , but a few citizens
wanted the street made brilliant , and
agreed to pay for it out of their own
private pocket-books. One by one they
quit paying their assessments , leaving
the burden on two or three who got
weary and quit.

The paving is of cedar blocks , similar
to that on lower Broadway. Next week
work will bo resumed on Willow avenue
and on Sixth and Seventh streets.
Maggie Mitchell's appearance on a
Council BlulTs stage last evening was
the occasion , as is always the case when
she visits this city , of a general turning
out of all the old time theater goers ,
who have time and again been charmed
by this greatest of American soubrottcs.
Time has indeed dealt very leniently
with her , and she captivates the hearts
of her audience as in former years by
the perfect naturalness of her acting.
May she long bo spared to enjoy the
success which is BO justlyhors.

AVIm Stele the Clock ?
Yesterday's police court business was
very light for Monday morning , owing
to the fact that the majority of Sun
day's boocrs had paid their fines and
departed rather than tarry in the cooler
over Sunday night. The fines were as
sessed for excessive boo/.ing. The
case of Ir von Landon , charged with the
larceny of a clock , was called and four
witnesses examined. There was some
doubt in the mind of the court , as to the
prisoner's guilt , and the case was con
tinued until other witnesses could bo
summoned. The circumstances point
strongly to the guilt of a couple of col
ored lads who will bo arrested.

W. R , Vaughn did not succeed in
getting all of the material connected
with the Herald olllco across the river
Sunday night. The work was about to
bo resumed yesterday morning when
Sheriff O'Neill appeared on the scene
and levied on the remaining property
to satisfy aa execution of the district
court in favor of the Vannortwlek
Paper company for about $400. Mr.
Vaughn arrived on the 10:35 : dummy ,
and lie vowed that there would bo music
unless the execution was withdrawn.
Ho consulted his attorney , W. A.
Mynstcr , and the property was finally
replovined , Norman ( Jreen becoming
bondsman in the sum of $1,400.
At U o'clock the work of removal was
resumed , and the cylinder press was
started for the Nebraska shore. Mr.
Vaughn stated that a suit for $1.500
damages had been instituted against
the paper company for delaying the
move. Ho also said that ho hail sold
the weekly Herald to Messrs. Sholes
and Walker , former stockholders in the
daily paper , and that they would con
tinue it on this side , probably as u pro
hibition paper , and would run a job
olllco in connection with it. Entirely
new material vill bo purchased for it ,
and the Council BlulTs otlicc of the
Herald will bo in the same building.
The name of the Herald will be changed
to the Daily Intcr-Stato Democrat ,
which will appear in a day or two. Mr.
Vaughn claims to have bought up $800
worth of judgments against the Herald
Printing company , all of which arc
dated prior to the one of the paper com
pany , and says that the latter is of no
cartnly account , as the chattel mort
gage forestalled everything. There
are several judgments against the Her
ald but they are probably not worth the
paper on which they are written. The
property is now in the hands of Mr.
Vaughn on Nebraska soil , and will
doubtless stay there until he gets ready
to bring it back. Mr. Hverett , the land
lord , did not take any action. He has
received a draft to pay back rent , but
he finds himself unable to do anything
about the unoxpircd lease. Mr. Vaughn
admits that there are several claims
against the Herald , but says they are
worthless.
Wo have quite a number of bargains
in second hand and slightly damaged
pianos and organs , which wo will renter
or sell cheap.

Opening of ( ho Catholic Fair.
During this week Masonic temple will
bo so metamorphosed that one would
hardly know it. The ladies of St.
Francis Xavior's church have dressed
it in bright colors and each evening
attractive features will bo introduced
for the edification of visitors.
The fair opened last evening , and
although not having the "polish"
which will charactori/o it later , it was
without question a success. Booths
here and there , articles of utility and
beauty , handsome ladies and merry
children all combined to make the
scone one of attractiveness and pleas
ure. The programmes for the evenings
of the week will combine musical and
literary features and various amuse
ments as well. Heretofore the patron-
atro of these bazaars has boon good and
this will bo no exception to the rule.

The new bridge is at last completed.
Several loads of goods crossed the
structure yesterday coming to this side
of the river. The rails for the motor
line arc laid as far as the Indian creek
bridge. This bridge was completed
last evening and the rails will bo laid
across it to-day. The laying of the
Northwestern crossing was also com
pleted yesterday. There are fourteen
of them double crossings over seven
tracks. As soon as the curves and
switches are laid on Broadway whore
the line leaves this street at Thirteenth
street , the track will bo completed.
There is considerable work to bo done
iu the next week , but it will bo com
pleted in time for the opening.

Another case sf mistaken identity led
to the detention of an entirely innocent
party at the police station yesterday for
a couple of hours. W. J. Russell , a well
known young man who has lived in this
city for the past twelve yoarg , was taken
in on suspicion of being the thief who
btolo a couple of horses at Underwood
Saturday night. Ho readily proved
that ho was not the party for whom ho
was arrested , and was released after be
ing put to considerable inconvenience.
Mistakes will happen occasionally , but
it seems as though members of the po
lice force ought to bo bettor acquainted
with parties who have resided in the
city for years.

A Phantom Train.
Birmingham ( Ala. ) Ago : "You ask
if I have over had an adventure on the
railroad that would bo interesting to
the readers of the Ago. I could wish
you had left that question unasked , for
it calls up an occurrence that for fifteen
long years I have been doing my best to
forget. "
The engineer who made this remark
is one of the oldest engineers running
into Birmingham. His train had just
pulled into the union depot , and the re
porter had mounted the engine , which
was being leisurely run into the round
house. The engineer was attired in thorough
rough garments common to the guild
while on duty. Underneath the tight-
fitting cap perched on his head could bo
seen a plentiful sprinkling of gray
hairs , betokening the decline of life.
'I would like to hear the story , " in
sinuated the reporter , as ho seated himself -
self in the cab and drew out his note
book and pencil , the time-honored
though chestnutty earmarks of his pro
fession.
"Well , you shall have it , although it
is something I would willingly forgot.
But it seems impossible. Fifteen years
ago I was running on the East Tennes
see road , between Knoxville and Chat
tanooga. The scenery between these
two points is grand at points , the moun
tains bcintr in sight nearly the entire
distance. 1 had loft Knoxvillc an hour
late one afternoon in November , and at
London the telegraph operator handed
mo an order to make up the lost time ,
as there was a largo southern excursion
on board who wanted to make connec
tion at Chattanooga for Atlanta. I had
always been ranked nsoneof the coolest
"
mon "on the road , as a man who never
got excited , and I once ran over a burn
ing trestle without a muscle changing.
Yet this afternoon I was strangely ner
vous. For the first time in my life 1 dis
covered I had nerves.
" 'Jack , ' I said to the fireman , 'I am
all in a tremor. I am not superstitious ,
but I feel as if something was going to
happen. '
"Jack burst into a loud guffaw. 'Why ,
cap'n , you nervous1 ! That is too good , '
and ho laughed again.
"I said nothing else , but the uncom
fortable feeling continued. I did not
know it at the time , but I have since
found out that even the iron nerves of
an engineer must break down some
time. Jack , in the meantime , was pil
ing up coal in the furnace. 'Cap'n , you
are cold , ' ho remarked after a few min
utes' intermission. We'll have a better
fire and wo'll bo in Chattanooga in a
jiffy. '
"The grim November twilight hung
over the cartli like a pall. Wo had
passed Athens , and with only fifty-six
miles to go to reach our destination.
For the first time since I mounted an
engine I longed for the trip. I was
looking straight ahead , whore the iron
bands far down the track seemed to
unite into a single rail , when I was
startled by an exclamation from Jack.
'Cup'n,1 ho screamed , 'look there , my
God , look there , pointing with tremb
ling hand to tiie east , where in
the distance- the mountains loomed
up grim and bare in their awful gran-
dour. The look of horror on the poor
fellow's face was indescribable. But the
sight I witnessed as I quickly turned my
eves to the east was enough to freeze
tfio warm blood which courses through
your veins , for there , above the moun
tain tops with a terrible distinctness
sailed a phantom engine drawing a
phantom train. The pulfsof smokocamo
regularly from the engine. I could see
the glaring headlight , the lights in the
coaches , all as plain as if the train was
running on the side track by as. I stood
there watching the strange sight too
amazed to utter u word , how long I can
not wiy. but uddonly'it disappeared and
I was recalled to myt-'clf by several jerks
at the bell rope made by tha conductor.
I looked out and saw tliat wo were at
Cleveland ,
" 'What's tlio matter with you ? asked
the Conductor , coining to the engine.
'What ill ) you moan by trying to run by
Cleveland that way ? Why , man , you
look as if you had seen a ghost , ' ho
added after a moment , catching a
glimpse of my face , 1 looked at my
watch and saw Hint it was exactly 0
o'clock. We had made up half an hour ,
and we pulled into Chattanooga an hour
later only a few minutes behind time.
From the time of the appearance of the
apparatlon to the time wo pulled into
the round house at Chattanooga Jiu'k
had not spoken a word , but there was a
fixed look on his face I did not like.
The affair was not discussed between us.
Jack was strangely tueoiturn.andto toll
the truth , I did not feel inclined to talk
about the strange scene in the clouds.
"There is not a great deal more to
tell. The run to Knoxville the next
day was made without anything occur
ring worthy of comment , but on the re
turn trip to Chattanooga on Friday , two
days after we had seen the apparation ,
at 5:57 : in the afternoon , and two miles
east of Cleveland , a wild freight thun
dered into us. I raw it too lute to do
any good , but I reversed my engine and
then jumped. I happened to jump on
the rightsido and escaped with a broken
linger. But Jack , poor boy , had cho'-on
the wrong side and the immense loco
motive crushed him to a jelly. I firmly
believe that the accident happened at
the very spot where Jack first saw the
phantom engine and at the very minute ,
although two days later. Poor Jack ,
the discoverer of'that wonderful sight ,
the warning was evidently intended for
him.
" 1 did not make another run on that
fated line. I asked to bo cxeus-ed from
duty pending the investigation made by
ollicials into the accident , and on the
day the investigation was concluded and
I was oxhonorated from blame I walked
into the superintendent's olllco and
asked for my time.
" 'You needn't feel badly about that
accident , ' remarked the superintendent ,
kindly.
" ' 1 don't , ' I replied , 'but my nerves
arc shattered and I want to change my
location. '
"I saw a smile on the superintendent's
face as I mentioned my 'nerves , ' but he
gave me my time without aord. . I
spent live years in the Rockies in the
vain attempt to drive that picture from
my mind. Finally I came back cnstbut
th'o photographic camera could not fix
an object more firmly than did the
phantom engine in the mountains of
Tennessee fix itself in my memory. I
am only forty-five now , but you can sco
how gray I am. My hair was not turned
white 'iii a single night , ' as the novel
ists toll , but in a few months after the
occurrence the change was olTccted , as
I used to think and worry over it a good
deal , and that. two. when I was only
thirty years of age. "
For some minute's the engine had been
standing still in the yard , but the re
porter did not notice when it stopped.M )
thrilling was the veteran engineer's
story.
It's as plain as a tpiko staff that any
article of pastry or food flavored witli
adulterated flavoring cannot possess the
wholcbomcncsa or agreeable flavor of
one in which a strictly pure fruit extract -
tract like one of Van Du/er's has been
used. The flavoring extracts prepared
by Van Du/.er & Co. are from sound
fruit , highly concentratedcontain moro
than usual quantity and are therefore
doubly economic. rThcir flavor is sup
erb. Grocers everywhere sell them.
A Pathetic Herder Funeral.
It was a touching sight to sco how the
boys stood around the dead body of
Briggs and endeavored to hide emotion
and failed. The tears ran down the
face of Arkansaw Bob like rain off the
gable end of a corn-crib , and Ted Wil
liams and Jim Henderson and several
moro bowed their heads while their
forms shook with the sobs they would
not allow to escape. The boys dug a
grave on the banks of the Bra/os river ,
and that night as the clouds drifted
away and the moonlight fell upon the
snow-covered ground and sparkled the
ice-laden limbs of the forest trees , wo
Inirt poor Briggs down in his narrow
resting-place. The only requiem that
was sung was the roar of the turbid
Braxos as it surged along on its wav to
the sea a mass sung by nature. Wiien
the grave had been filled Jim Hender
son said : "I think wo ought to have
some kind of service. It ain't right , by
a darn sight , to go away without bay In'
sointhin' the follows
over grave any you
lows got a BibleV" Noono had a Bible ,
nor had any one seen one in a number
of years. "Well , suppose some ono says
a sort of prayer ? " The boys scratched
their heads , glanced at ono another for
a momentand then looked away off into
the woods. Finally some ono whispered.
"Sisli ! Arkansaw Bob's goin'to pray , "
and ho did.
"O , Lord ! " lie snid ; "I RUCSS in your
opinion I'm pretty tou h , but I nin't askln'
mull in for myself it's for Brings. Ho is
dead now , but was as white a man as over
walked. Ho never did no mnn a hurt , and
lie luul a heart in him us big as a mule , ami
no ono as I've ' heard ever said a word u in
him. I don't know us what I say will have
much influence , but Uriggs stood well with
us down hero , ntul although I don't know
much about his career , or his history , or his
family , ho was a man you could bank on
every clutter. Ho g.-.vo a sick Mexican 4.50
once for medicine , and then turned right
around and nursed him through a fever , but
the infernal Greaser hadn't been well rnoro'n
two days before ho stele Hrnrg's saddle-bags.
Ah I Lord , thcro nin't any preacher nowhere
'round here wo'd had him
, or to say some-
tiling moio p'inted to you than lean say it.
I never pattered any with the Uiblo , and
can't Just remember a hymn song , but I'm a
man of my word I mean what I say and
Uriggs , if ho gets a chance , will make a good
record in heaven as any one that ever got
there. Ho hml , away down in his heart ,
something that was square and as true as
steel and , O , Lord ! you mustn't go back on
that Itliul of n man , 'cause they're tooskecrco
in these parts > Amcu. "
The prayer was as rough as Bob , but
no moro sincere , as was evidenced by
his tearful eye and trembling lip. After
the prayer , the boys ranged themselves
on ono side of the grave , and , drawing
thojr bix-shootors , fired a salute over
their dead comrade , and while the
fiharp roports'woro still echoing through
the forest , they turned and loft the
scone.
