FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
A Conductor Killed and Tws.ty-tvo Cars
Wrecked.

As the freight train from Ogden, due here
at o o'clock Wednesday evening, was coming
over the heavy grades between Dillon and
Glen that morning, IT met with terrible ac-
cident, killing the conductor, woundIng .
brakeman, hurling twenty-five cars off the
track down side fills twenty or thirty feet,
and smashing them to splinteIs.
DIR. A. III. Mitchell, Company physician,
who was telegraphed for and went over on
the 2:l2 p. m. train, gives US the following
particulars: The train consisted oftwenty-
FIVE loaded cars-iron, coal, merchandise and
four containing thirty-eight horses belonging
to Evans a. Montague, of Marshall, Mo-,
and consigned TO Deer Lodge, where the
owners were awaiting them. The train pass
ed Apex all right, but coming down the
heavy grade It got under such headway the
brakes would not hold IL. Every brake was
set but TIVE, and the engine whistled
"brakes" for these BY this time the train
waJ under terrific speed, the brakemen
couldn't say how fast they were going. The
road Is full OF sharp curves with heavy side
grades. About one and a half miles this
side the summit the seven rear cars broke
loose, and six OF them were hurled down the
bank, a distance of twenty or thirty feet,
smashing them into ruins; the caboose staid
on the rails. The conductor, r. M. Edwards,
who was on the foremost of the seven cars,
was thrown about thirty feet and the right
side OF his head crushed in, causing instant
death. One of the brakemen, T. H. Sales,
had his shoulde- wrenched and sustained
severe injuries on the right side of his head,
left hip and right leg. He hung to the car,
thus probably saving his life. The other
brakemen escaped unhurt.
The fifteen forward cars and engine con-
tinued their headlong flight until within
half or three-fourths of smils of Glen where
fifteen more cars were hurled over the bank,
emily two coal cars next the engine staying
on the track. or the thirty-eight horses on
four cars derailed, emily Ave were killed;
many others were not badly hurt The two
stations escaped serious injury.
Sales, the wounded brakeman, was attend
ed TO and sent to Ogden. The remains OF
conductor Edwards were placed in his ca
boose car and taken to Dillon, for burial or
further orders. he was the same conductor
who ran the extra circus train through last
week, and whose namesake, the brakeman,
was murdered below Deer Lodge.

SEVEN REASONS

Why you should buy the Esterly Binder in
preference to any other Binder offered in the
market:
1st Because it is the nghtest draft of any
machine in the market.
I'd, Because you can raise and lower both
ends Of the machine at the same time and
with only one lever, which cannot be done
with any other binder.
Cd, Because you can cut closer to the
ground, and bind shorter grain.
4th, Because it is easier adjusted to suit the
variations in the length of grain to be cut, a
boy being able to operate the machins while
in motion.
9th, Because it hes less top weight, thereby
being better adapted to work on rough and
uneven ground.
9th, Because it is better braced and made
of the best material, and he's the best drive
wheel of any harvester ever manufactured.
7th, And last but not least, because we war
rant every machine to do first-clars work in
all kinds of grain, or no sale. We will set
up every machine and start it for you, and
see that it is kept in running order during
the harvest. BENNETT BROS,

John Kelley, the celebrated California
yiolinist and vocalist, assisted by his wife,
will give concert IN Deer Lodge next Mon
day evening, June 30th, at o'Neiils Theatre.
Reserved seats can be had at Co!eman's. The
fame OF John Kelley Is co-extensive with the
West. He plays the violin with magic
touch no other car equal, and those who
have once heard him always desire 20 hear
him again. It is not necessary to commend
him TO the s'oid-timers," for to them ne is q
part OF the history Of the country, and they
will 70 TO hear him IL he shonld return q
hundred years from now. As he is now ~
years old 1t Is not probable this will be gues-
toned. TO those who do not know his geni-
ms, We will say IL SURPRISES TO us all the art OF
aiI the artists. The melodies he can get out
of four strings reach nearer heaven, than tho
hundred voiced harmonies Of Thomas, and
find responsive sympathy In every heArer.
Mrs. Kelley. an accomplished pianist, will
accompany her husband with organ or piano.

Some One Has Numbered.
Sun River Sun.


Colonel Hoale returned on Saturday from
q trip to the Blackfoot agency, where he had
been receiving and inspecting lot of beef
and stock cattle, -four and bacon. He re-
ceived 1900 pounds Of bacon, about fifty
sacks of -four. forty -four head Of beef stsers,
and some 300 head Of stock cattle. This will
be enough, he thinks, to keep the Indians
from actual starvation until after the first of
July, but after that, he says, they will have
absolutely nothing to eat. They will prob
ably kill sfIthe 500 head OF stock cattle, and
then We all well know what they win do.
For some reason or other the Government
win not have supplies there by the first OF
July. There has been o terrible blunder
somewhere-a blunder that win turn loose
5000 starving Indians on the defsnseless set
tiers In the Teton. Depuyer and Marias coun-
try. There 10 no game worth msntioning on
the BIackfoot reservation, and there are cat
tie, which the Indians are bound to kill fer
food when the Goycrnmsnt rations play out.
Our stockmen should look into this matter
before 1t Is too late.
