SOMEBODY BLUNDERED.
a Fourth of July Excursion Train Col
Edes with e Freight.

DUBUQUE, Iowa, July "a wreck oc
cured last night on the Chicago and
Kansas Ci." road, about two miles North
of this city. The &. \. R. had been
holding picnic at Twin Springs, a re-
sort about thirteen miles from Dubuque.
Over 5000 people were in attendance.
Trains We're run every hour to and from
the grounds. The excursion train had
just landed 1890 people in this city and
were returning for the remainder, which
consisted of about2 900 men, women and
children, when il collided with a freight
train en- roHte for Dubuque Only the
most meagre particulars are obtainab'e
and the railroad officials are extremely
reticent. 1t is admitted that one man,
brakeman named Ryan, was Instantly
killed, and three others were seriously
injured. There were large number of
people on the excursion train who were
going up to pass few hours in the re-
sort, intending to return on a late train.
1t is believed that many people We're
killed. Had the accident occurred to
the Southbound excursion train the loss
of life would have been fearful. No
satisfactory reason for the accident has
been assigned.

IN LATER YEARS.

On the -2sSth -af -NaEssabsG. l2S2, moss
ensNmods flood gave birth 70 Se- zsIsSSr 81
and put the Dollart into its present shape, by
which mighty revolution Of nature Sc, 900 to
100000 human lives were lest and many
towns were wiped out forever. The second
80 called .'Marcellus' flood in 1900 destroyed
twenty-eight towns in Sleswick alone, and
with them 1900 human beings. It also
swept away another half Of what had been
left Of Helgoland, so that only about one
fourth Of the original island remained. The
year 1917 was most remarkable one In
France, Germany and Austria AL the riv-
er,s in these countries overfowed their banks,
and the water even spurted forth from the
iepths of the earth. In 1887 large portion
of the province Of iceland, containing seven
dioceSes and fourteen villages, were buried
beneath the waters The year 1912 saw the
most disastrous of floods which ever visited
Germany. On the Sth Of December the Ger
man ocean leaped, as it were, upon North
Frisia and swallowed up more than loo, 900
men, women and children, together with all
their hab;tations, scattered through thirty
dioceses. Again. from the 18th to the Goth Of
November, 1921, 100000 people were de-
stroyed by food near Dortrecht and Rot
terdam, together with seventy-one villages,
of which twenty-five have never since been
seen.
Other calamities happened in those regions
in the years 1925, 1449, 1915, 1897, 1900, ISL,
1880, l54l, 1918, 1875, 1884, III, l7S4, 1903,
1900, 1926 and other years, destroying human
lives by the hundreds, thousands and tens Of
thousands. In August, 1865, there were gen
eral foundations in Switzerland, occasioning
a loss Of 20O, 900 forms. The year 1870 was
the most disastrous for Holland. Large tracts
Of valuable land were flooded and 400, 900 peo-
pie drowned In 1871 a part Of the beautiful
city of Lyons was torn away by tbe river
Rhone The year 1883 saw the destruction Of
the proud Armada, entailing the loss of 10000
men. In 1895, June 4, an inundation in
Switzerland, caused by the outbreak Of
glacier, swept away 500 houses and 145 hui
man beings-Chicago Times
