Work OF a Wheatland Whelp.

The east bound Northern Pacific pas
senger train, which leaves here at 80 p.
m, narrowly escaped being wrecked at
Wheatland, Thursday night, if the fol-
lowing from the Eagle of Friday is
not overdrawn:
Some fool fiend made an unsuccessful
attempt last night to lessen the dog pop
ulation of Wheatland by tying one of
these animals between the rails of the
Northern Pacific track, few rods east of
the station. A heavy log chain was
wound around the rail on one side and
the hook caught on the other side; then
the dog was tied to this chain in the CEN
ter, where he was unable to move either
way. Mr. Davis saw him and at once
unlocked the chain and let him 60 Thie

onto this chain fastened around the rail,
the probabilities are there would not
have only been dead dog but a wrecked
train. The man-thing- did this,
deserves worse fate than that he had
planned for the dog and The Eagle would
glory in chronicling the event.

particulars have not yet been received,
and it is only known that he was IN his

his engagement to preach at 1890 o'clock;
was taken sick soon after and expired
at five o'clock. Apoplezy is stated to
have been the cause.

There were speeches in which the Amer
