D. H. sherwood, employed as a watch
man in the Int rior Department at Wash
ington, jumped from the passenger train
which left Washington at S:15 O'Clock last
evening, when near Winthrop Heights,
while 1t was rapidly moving. and how hs
escaped being killed instantly was a mys-
terry to the rest of the passengers.
Isherwood, who seemed to be under the
influence of liquor. insisted almost imme-
diately after leaving the depot on returning
to the platform Of the car, but was re-
strained by friend. Just after passing
Ivy City. Isherwood went into the toilet
room, and moment later, while the train
was running at the rate of about thirty
miles an hour, he pulled the cord connect
Ing the car with the air brake attachments
on the engine, and at the same instant
Jumped through the window of the COM
partment.
Almost at the same time one of the forty
five-minute trains from Baltimore, on its
way to Washington. passed at full speed.
and those who were by this time aware of
what had transpired fully expected that
the man was killed instantly.
The train from which the man had
jumped was stopped as speedily as possi-
bic. and as many of the train crew as could
be spared from their other duties went
back to Investigate. On reaching Winthrop
Heights they found that Messrs Walter r.
Berry. Frank E. Hagan. Edward Budding
ton and Harry D. Whitcomb Of Langdon
had carried Isherwood to the station at
Winthrop Heights. and were doing all they
could to relieve his sufferings. An exami-
nation showed that Isherwood was badly
cut about the face and head, and 1t was
feared he was injured internally. He was
placed on the train. which had meanwhile
been backed to the scene Of the occurrence,
and taken to Highlands. where he was Iefi

A DEcAMPING POLITICIAN.


Park Record w. II. Goliath has left
the camp and more than likely will
never return; he has gone to greener
fields and pastures new and left nu-
merous old-tlme, close friends, TO
mourn his departure. From all OBJ
tainable data those who believed In his
honesty and integrity are. In the ag-
gregate. anywhere from $4,000 to $1,000
short. Up to the time of his leaving
and the discovery of the a. o. U. w.
lodge here, of which he was treasurer,
that he had left them about $500 short,
he would have been one of the last
men in the community to be suspected
of embezzement Following closely
on the lodges discovery, came reports
that. II true, would make his total
shortage run, as above stated. Into the
thousands. Terry Sweeny, 1t Is said. is
out $3.50. another party 5000, and any
number OF people report being left for
amounts ranging from $3.50 to 500. NO
one appears to be able to account for
his actions other than to lay 1t at the
door of an inexorable madness for
gambling, and those who claim to have
knowledge believe that every cent he
could rustic found Its way to the gam
ing table and that he has taken no
money with him. The last heard Of
him ne was headed for Cripple Creek,
Colo, but SO far no effort has been
made to apprehend him. w. II. Col
bath enjoyed reputation In this com :
munity that was above reproach and
two years ago was candidate for
mayor on the Democratic ticket, being
defeated by very narrow margin, and
that in the face of naturally strong
Republican majority. That he could
have done what he has can hardly be
comprehended by those who know
him. and many believe that he will yet
do what he can to make amends.

MOVEMENTS or SHEEP.


Brigham Bugler: Newton Neal,
whose home is In Boxelder county near
the state line at Standrod. Idaho, was
in Brigham Wednesday. He told a
Bugler reporter that parts of the west
ern country are literally alive with
sheep that have been taken out there
to winter. He estimates that in the
neighborhood of Hogup, southwest OF
Eelton, there are now close to 100000
sheep.
owing to shortage of water. some
of the foclSs had hard time reach
ing the winter range. but Few days ago
q big snow storm came up. For while
1t was a regular blizzard and when Il
abated the ground was covered with
several inches of snow. This rejoiced
the hearts of the sheepmen, as they
were now able to water their locks on
the fallen snow, and also move on to
their winters destination.
The price for good sheep out there
now is 81 a head. The other day
herd of several thousand went at 50
"a head straight. Some owners even re-
fused this price, which Is the highest
for years. A few days ago sheep-
owner delivered several thousand
sheep that had been contracted for
year or two ago when sheep were
worth but 81 20 n head, He offered Mr..
Pierce, the receiver, $1,000 clear profit
if he would declare the contract null.
