TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

St. Joseph, No., April 19.-To.morrow's
Herald will contain the particulars Of a Sc
rious accident which occurred this morning
on the Kansas City branch of the Hannibal
& St. Josph railroad. As freight train No.
4, bound west, was running down a heavy
grade a trestle bridge was discovered on fire,
and in spite of al efforts to check the train
it ran down on the trestle. The engine
passed nearly over, fourteen cars breaking
through, n after another, and piling in an
immense wreck in the creek. All the cars
were soon enveloped ip flames and with
their contents entirely consumed. The en-.
gineer stood at his post until the last, only
saving himself by jumping as the engine
turned over. The fireman jumped before
reaching the trestle. Conductor Murray
had his leg broken. Two men were sleep.
ing in a car of household goods and we're
buried in the wreck. MI. Bailey, badly in.
jured, was rescued. The other. a young
man, could not be saved. the fire spreading
60 rapidly that all efforts had to be absn-
doned. Conductor Jones was close behind
with an extra train and he rendered all the
assistance he could and took the wounded
back to Kearney, where they received med
ical assistance. Mr.. Bailey and the young
man were from Illinois and were on their
way to Kansas. At Quincy Mr.. Bailey
put his family on a passenger train and thus
saved them.

PlurE BOB PUTS IN MS WORK.
Reno Gazette, March

Keno GaZette, March.
A late arrival informs the Gazette of
some very effective work done by Piute
Bob, q well-kEown leader of the aboriginal
sporting fraternity. AT the lower end of
Honey Lake valley, near Fish Springs, q
family of Piutes had encamped and turned
their ponies out to Craze. Rumor has it
that the daughter of this family was fair to
look upon, and that the ponies were above
the average. Be this IS it may, hithel
came Robert. and after introducing himself
all around, produced his pack Of cards, and
induced the family to cut for deal. Bot
soon owned the movable property around
the camp, and was casting covetous eye.
upon the herd of ponies when q dispute
arose touching Bob's right to hold five
Jacks. The point was warmly discussed
for some time, when Robert concluded
there were to many to convince. He there.
fore drew his pistol and shot one of his
victims through the heart. The father of
the murdered man tried to demonstrate with
Bob, and was in turn slain by the savage
gamester. Another young Indian, also Q
member of the family, reproved Bob for his
extravaganza, and for his kindness received
q flesh wound in the leg. which will unfit
him for the chase. The ponies now came
in for their share Of the riot, and standing
between the corpses the brute killed six Of
the ponies. Fifty or sixty Indians who
were camped near by. instead Of taking
steps to punish the offender, took steps to
get out of the way, fearing no doubt that
the irate gamester would slaughter them
also. Some fine day Piute Bob will fail to
keep his appointments, and that is about all
that will come of his days sport.
