Nearly a Rmashup.

There came near being a serious acciA
den about noon today. It seems as
though passenger train! No. 4 had or
ders to run to Moleen, and in compli-
ance with said instructions had just
started oaE of the yard at this place
when the engineer sighted a freight
coming over the grade, about half q
mile below the water tauk, and apply
ing the air brakes stopped his train be-
fore it had got under much Roadway.
The engineer of the incoming freight
being on o strict watch saw the ap-
preaching passenger train aud by ap4
plying the air brakes and reversing his
engine succeeded in stopping, but none
too soon.
II the passenger train had started
from this station few minutes sooner
than it did serious accident would
have been inevitable, and as the cars
were we'll filed with passengers large
loss of Kfe would surely have been the
result. We could not learn to whom
the mistake is attributed, but it seems
to rs case Of gross carelessness.

A DISASTROUS FIRE.

The large frame barn (and its cOntents)
belonging to Abner Wilkinson, who re-
sides short distance South of Centerville
was destroyed by fire about o'clock Mon
day morning.
When the fire was first discovered by
the family it was under full headway, the
upper story being a mass of flame. Three
good horses, two new wagons, harness,
hay, grain, and farm utensils were burn
ed, entailing a loss of between 5000 and
S3,CG0; and we understand that no part of
the loss is covered by insurance. The fire
is thought to have been an incendiary
one.
Mr.. Wilkinson is an industrious man
and good citizen, and he has the sympa-
thy of the community in which he lives.
The villain who set the fire deserves to
dangle at the end of hemp rope.
