INDIAN CREEK DAM GONE.

Wednesday morning the big dam
that was erected only about one
year ago TO store the waters Of IN
dian creek, at a cos; Of not less than
$4,000, was carried away by the
heavy waters that so suddenly came
down from the mountains, CARRYING
destruction to property for many
miles down the creek. II washed
away five railroad bridges, and
passing on down TO Nampa catried
away several houses standing near
the channel. and continued on to-
ward Caldwell, doing more or less
damage. Fortunately no lives were
lost, though there were marrow
escapes at Nampa. The breaking
OF this dam has caused the destruc-
ton Of at least 100000 worth of
property, to say nothing about the
loss to fall upon Orchard Farms by
being deprived Of water for irriga-
ton.
Under these circumstances il is
folly for US TO expect a mail from
the west before Monday, and as the

a nan RAILROAD AccrDrsr.

Two Men and . Roy Kliicd---The
Engineer and Two Postal Clerks
seriously Intarcsi--.Two Cars and
Engine a Total wreck.
Tuesday night, about s o'clock, a
terrible smash-up occurred in chalk
cut, on Medbury hill, about fourteen
miles east Of Mountain Home. The
train was under the usual down
grade speed, and while rounding a
curve plowed into big slide Of
rock and dirt that had been caused
to come down by the heavy rains.
The shock was so sudden that the
engine turned on end and the tender
leaped over it landing in the debris
beyond. The mail and baggage cars
were almost torn TO slivers, but
strange to say the passenger cars
and inmates escaped uniniured.
The passengers and train men i'm
lmediately set to work, and succeed
ed in getting Evan Williams. the
engineer, two mail clerks, c. Z. Tip
ton and ]. 4. Mahon, and fireman
A. L. Pedam from the wreck. The
engineer was terribly mangled and
bruised and up to Thursday, when
the Inflated train left here, his case
was considered critical indeed. Mrs.
Williams arrived here from Poca-
tello just in time to accompany her
husband on his way to the railway
hospital at Ogden. The postal
clerks and fireman were not so Sc
riously hurt and will recover.
The dead body of IA year old
boy was found on the bank 80 feet
ahead Of the engine, with the top OF
his head of, and two dead men were
taken from under the mail car with
their bodies fearfully mangled,
all of whom were stealing a ride.
The boy had been seen around this
town frequently of late, and went
by the name of Charlie Munson and
said that his parents resided in
Portland. The two dead tramps
had nothing on their persons by
which they could be identified.
Coroner May came here Wednes'
day and held an inquest over the
dead bodies, and the remains were
buried that evening by county con
tractor Rinehart.
Immediately after the accident
Peter Martin, a brakeman, started
on foot for Min Home, reaching
here about III o'clock. DIR. Smith
was soon speeding his way to thu
wreck on a hand-car. where he ar
rived in due time, and he and DIR
Baugh, who was a passenger on tn,
train, rendered all possible assist
ance TO the sufferers.
The passengers and wounded mer
were brought here Wednesday morn
ing with the five uninjured cars
where they remained until Thurs
day afternoon, when they agaiI
started east.
Conductor Lane, who had charg
of the wrecked train. exerted him
| self toward the comfort and want
of his passengers during their en-
forced stay here.
