cial.) The Missouri Paolfle passenger
train from Lincoln yesterday morning

when the trucks of the tank attached to
the engine Jumped, the " (rack and
ploughed through the timbers of the
bridge and ran out to .the edge of the
timbers, where the wheel struck some
thing solid and ran hack to the side of
the rails and croeaed the remainder of
the bridge close to the alls, cutting off
the tlea. The train waa stopped after it
had crossed the bridge and . after an
hour's delay the tank wheela were re
placed on the rails and the train came

some twenty feet deep which this

the tale. All were badly frightened when
they saw what a close call they had.

CHARLES MOOSE INNOCENT
Former Justice of Pence Vlnlentes
Himself, Proving; Hu la Not
Dick Taylor.
Charles Moose, former Justice of tho
peace in Omaha, was vindicated when he
was taken before County Judge Leslie
Thursday on a burglary charge. He proved
he was not Dick Taylor and was dis
charged. Meanwhile the real Dick Taylor
ngainst whom the charge was filed is at
large.
Moose owes his trouble to his effort to
be genial with a Lincoln sleuth. He was In
Lincoln shortly after the burglary and a
detective in plain clothes, after eyeing him
carefully, approached and held out Ills
hand. ,
"Hello Dick Taylor," said the detective.
Mooso was In a comfortable mood that
morning and a little matter like a name
could not stand between him and anyone
who wanted to be friendly, so he answered,
"Hello" and began talking to the detective.
The latter knew Dick Taylor was wanted
here so he locked Moose up and sent down
here for an officer. Moose was brought
back under the Impression he was using
the name, Taylor. When the police officers
saw him they realized a mistake had been
made and turned Moose loose.
