DOUBLE TRAGEDY AT DAWSON
A Young Man and HIS Niece Killed by
the Cars,

DAWSON, Neb., Dec, 13.-Thc engine of the
Kansas City and st, Louis flyer on the B. &c
M struck and Killed two persons near the
depot yesterday afternoon. The train was
running about thirty miles an hour at the
time and the victims, a young man named
McGairn, and his niece Miss Quinlan, at
tempted to cross the track in a wagon. They
miscalculated the speed of the train, evi-
dently, and the engine struck the center of
the wagon McGarn had the back of bis
skull torn off, while the girl was thrown on
the pilot and carried about one hundred feet,
where she rolled under the engine, the en-
tire tram passing over her, grinding her
into shapeless mass. The train was
stopped nearly onc-third of Il mile from the
crossing, and the front running gear OF the
wagon was found fastened to the pilot. Tho
tram was backed to the station and the vic
tins were picked up and carried to the wait
ing room. Engineer Dietz saw them coming
and says they appeared TO be running away,
but he saw them too late TO prevent the acct
dent. His train does not stop at Dawson.
Strange to say the team attached To the
wagon was not injured. Mctiairn lived two
miles south of Dawson and Miss Qunlin was
visiting here. They had been making some
purchases and were enroute home when
struck. No blame can be attached to the
train men us the signals had been sounded in
approaching the station and road crossings,
The engineer mas been running sixteen years
and this is the first person he ever killed.

the entire time being occupied in wraugllng
over ruling by the chair. There are forty
six clergymen and forty-siY parishes in the

bishop must have received a majority of all
the clerical and all lay votes, whether they
are all represented or not. Dr. Knight has
repeatedly secured a majority OF the votes
actually cast, lay as well as clerical, but
failed by from two to nine votes to secure a
majority of the ballots of lay delegates who
are entitled to vote in the council. DR..

cause he received Il majority of all the votes

point this afternoon.
