DULUTH, Mimi, Dec. 26.-The mixed
freight and passenger train, known as
No. Z, on the Duluth, Messabe &

cident Friday afternoon near Hibbing.
A log fell off of a fiat car, owing to a
loose stake, and in falling it struck a

railing five cars, including two refrig-
orator and the passenger car. In the

cars did not take fire, as stoves were
operated in the passenger and refrig
orator cars.

Oddities of KIondiISe Craze.
Brooklyn Standard-Union.

With the continuance OF the klondike
gold craze, there are some odd develop
ments. In Chicago twelve men have
agreed TO pay a transportation company
81 900 each for their passage TO the goid
fields, and are TO be allowed to earn II
back by chopplng wood for the Yukon
river steamers while they wait. CThis re-
fers to both the men and the steamers)
They are TO receive 81 a cord the wood
being soft pine or spruce. 1t Is calculated
that they can earn from s. to IS a day at
this work. The boats Will need the fuel
as soon as the river opens, and 1t must
be ready. This will be nearly a year
from now. The chopping will be good
training for the muscles of the prospec-
tive miners. and theAwill get a good IDEA
OF the country by the time mining is
again practicable.
The trouble about the new fields Is
that the season seems to be short. Miners
already on the ground say that hardly
one-half of those now on the way can
get through this year, as the Yukon river
will soon be closed by ice. That means
q long wait for many, and possibly great
suffering.
A very important drawback TO the gold
seeking enterprise is that the life and ac-
cident insurance companies refuse TO take
risks on the miners, regarding such In
yestments as extremely hazardous
