Immense Damage Wrought and Great
Loss Of Life ID Feared.
CRIPPLE CREEK, COL, April i3.-The
Cripple Creek district was yesterday
visited by the severest and most de-
structive blizzard in it's history. An
immense amount of damage has been
done and in all probability some lives
have been lost in the hills. The
velocity of the wind. which was from
the Northeast, increased, and con-
tinued to blow at the rate of sixty
miles an hour all day.
A score or more of buildings in this
city were blown down, and tents,
signs and loose lumber were scattered
over town. All the telephone wires
out of the camp are down. and no
trains arrived or departed yesterday
afternoon.
Rumors of loss of life in the out
lying districts are in general circnla-
ton. In the hills hundreds of pros
pectors live In tents, a majority of
which were blown away. The dam
age to property throughout the camp
will not fall short of 500, 900.

RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.
, Surgeons Ser They Would Rather Deal
with Th0se Which Occur ut Night.

Surgeons Soy They Would Rather Deal
with Th0se Which Occur ut Night.
Railway surgeons would rather
deal with ticc victims Of night than
of a day accident. Some uf the CID
est OF them in attendance upon the
Pan-American Medical Congress
stated this with much positivcness.
They declared that a daylight acct
dent by rail adds greatly tn the hor-
rOrS as well as to the fatalities The
difference is in the increase in the
mental strain, which is so much
greater by day than it is when dark
ness veiis the scene. This strain,
the surgeons argue, is greater than
in the case of the soldier going into
battle, for he carries with him the
hope that somebody else will stop the
bullet The shock enters very largely
into consideration with the railway
surgeon. BY this is meant the men,
tai instead of the physical shock.
This mental shock. the railway sur
geOns say, is greatest where through
the sense of sight the injured is cou-
sciOu> for few moments OF approach
ing danger. The case of the brake
man who. while making Il dying
switch, catches his foot in the frog is
good illustration. lie can not tear
himself loose. He sees the loose car
coming down, and knows what is to
happen.
The mental shock to that man
makes his condition much worse than
that Of 4 man whose foot is caught
and crushed So suddenly that he does
not have time to appreciate the i'm
lending danger
The railway surgeons say that many
fatalities occur for which this mental
shock is responsible. rather than the
physical injury. They say that ex-
pericnce proves injuries at night TO
be less likely to prove fatal. They
account for this by the fact that the
injured has not been able To cOmpre-
bend what was coming, as he might
have done in the day ti;ne.-WaSh-
ingtOn Star.

Clark was renominated for Congress
