Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1893-07-06

The 4th was celebrated at Olmitz in
bang up style. An elegantly deco
rated platform was prepared, the
speakers all acquitted themselves in
spread-eagle manner, the brass band
played the national airs with zest and
plenty of lung power, and the young
folks danced the happy hours away
until the break of day. Col. Prose
and Major Benke were the principal
orators, and Miss Kreisel read the
Declaration of Independence. Ice
cream, lemonade and other liquids run
the water clear off the grounds, and
all went merry as marriage bell.

The 4th was a quiet one in Great
Bend. Many people scattered them
selves to the various points of the
compass and took in the various
attractions out of town, while many
others spent the day quietly at home
in the shade of their own cottonwoods,
while Old Glory futtered in the breeze
from many business house and
dwelling.

Discipline Saves Life.

We unhesitatngly assert that railroad men
are the best disciplined men on earth; and this
fact was illustrated at the depot one night this
week. When the night yardmen were
t.kickinp'' a car in a side track, Alclde
Mouton was giving the signals, Ben Donoid
was at the throttle, and Swinddler was to
pull the coupling pin. The signal for the
engineer to come back fast was given, and
when under full Roadway, the signal to pull
the pin was given, and had been obeyed,
when the watchful eye of Mouton caught
sight of three men crossing the track in
a two-horse surry. AS quick as thought he
signaled for the pin to be replaced, which
was as quickly done, and in time to catch the
compiling; and like fash of lightning the
red light sent its message to the engineer to
stop quick, when, like thought, went the
reverse lever; out went the sand on the track,
and in the effort to change her direction,
the old yard engine shot her wheels around
like a spinning wheel, while she rocked like
monster ship in a storm; and just in time
for the young men to clear the track; and
for time, three mothers hearts
were spared that grief which only mother
knows how to feel when hcrcft Of child.
