DENVER, Col, Sept. 13.-An excursion
train was wrecked in Clear creek canon to-
day in the most peculiar manner, it being
the first case Of the kind on record. The
train, which consisted of eight day coaches,
three baggage cars and two en-
gines. left here about 9
o'clock this morning. 1t reached
Beaver brook on its way to Georgetown at
noon. AT this point, while rounding a very
sharp curve across the creek, the engines
pulled the three middle cars of the track,
and from the shape of horse shoe trans
formed the train into straight line. The
-derailed cars were thrown down an en-
bankment into the creek-bed and badly
wrecked.
George Farr was bruised badly about

General W. c. Brewing had his right side
bruised and was internally injured.

The seven years. war over the estate Of

and ii she has legitimate heirs they get it
