THE Philadelphia & Reading Rail
road Co. has completed locomotive,
the like of which has never been put
on railroad before Its appearance
is odd and attracts great deal Of at
tedtion. The locomotive, tank and
place to carry coal are together, there
being no tender attached by coupling.
The locomotive proper is smaller than
the regulation size of large class loco
motives, but with the tank it is longer
il weighs about 100, OOc pounds. The
locomotive has six drivers" The
front truck has two wheels and the
rear truck, on which the tank rests,
has six. 1t is compound engine, and
fit proves a success more will be built.

There was q shooting match in Edison the
day before thanksgiving Ed Harris fur
nished the turkeys, and four or five were
captured.
Can any fine haired fnlncler tell us why
gold pieces were in circulation before cleo
ton, but immediately after they suddenly
disappeared?
Frank Stude, who has been In Beatrice,
Neb., for three or four weeks, returned to
Edison Sunday night with carload Of farm
ing utensils, household goods and several
horses.
We have found out why no one in this
vicinity saw the comet. We have just re-

There came very near being water
famine In Edison and vicinity the four first

THE COAL CHUTE BURNED.
The Sheds, two Box Cars and Several
Tons of Coal Reduced IN Asbas

The Sheds, two Box Cars and Several
Tons of Coal Reduced to Ashes.
On Tuesday night between the hours of 7
and 8 O'Clock, there was an alarm of fire. the
sky was lighted up in the southwesterlv
part Of town and as a blizzard of snow was
drifting along southerly, the flame had a
peculiar effect tinging the heavens and illu-
mlnating the entire town in pinkish haze.
Inc people ran to the scene and il was
soon discovered that the Rock Island coal
chute was on fire.
A stove had been placed in the office of
the chute, aud it is supposed that the fire
started from this stove.
There were two cars standing in the chute
loaded with coal besides what was in the
dumps which were consumed with the
chute. The big hose was brought to bear
on the fire, but the force pump being out Of
order only the pressure from the tanks was
available to subdue the fire.
All that could be done was to prevent tho
spread osthe fire to the coal bins along tbe
Incline and to prevent any other damage TO
track and adjacent buildings.
William Blaneo was working in Che ebute
out did not discover the fire until II was too
late to stop its sprerd.
The damage is estimated at about 5000.

The presidents message to congress was
long document He eXpatiates on the
wealth of the country, the miles of railroad,
the increase of manufactures, the number
of fat hogs and the cattle. How much bet
ter is man than hogi He says not a
word about the number Of paupers, and the
unemployed workmen. Not a word about
the Homestead troubles, nor the PinkeftOns
or free coinage. He is preocupled with
protective tariff and the goldbug financial
policy. He can give attention to the Italian
lynchings and the lawlessness Of the south.
Not a word about lawlessness in the north
and the killing of innocent settlers in the
state Of Wyoming by cattle barons while
federal troops are used to snatch the villains
from justice; and not word about the kid
mapping Of the two old trappers by conni-
vance Of United States marshalls and COM
missioners. The whole message speaks the
narrow bigoted partisan, who is more anxi-
GUS to manufacture campaign material than
promote the general welfare.

The fire Tuesday night is reminder.
The town Of Goodland is without any ada
quate or efficient means of stopping fire.
Be sure we have hose cart and hook and
ladder outfit, but the pressure is not suflici-
ent or water supply large enough to make
any Roadway in case Of fire. There is only
two WAYS to meet this emergency. One is to
erect stand pipe, the other is to get n
chemical fire engine. Either plan is eX-
pensive. Some day fire will clean out the
town.

good many deficiencies. The Dark Horses
