ankle sprained, and mail clerk, hand
cut, sustained the most serious hurts.
The other were OILY scratched or shak-

The wrecked train was the Omaha
night exrpess and at the time OF the ac-
cident was running about twenty five
miles an hour. A cloud burst had
washed out considerable piece of the
track few minutes before and within
ten minutes the water rose three feet
on the level A terrific wind was
blowing. The engine passed over the
culvert without leaving the rails. The
mail car was turned over on its side
and such was the force of the water
that it was washed twenty feet from
the track. For fifteen minutes the scene
was a veritable whirlpool. The bag
gage car was overthrown and carried
thirty feet from the track. The first
coach was thrown on its side and the
sleeper, containing seventeen passen-
gers, was also overturned The en-
gineer remained on his seat and wa s
not hurt. Firmean Welty Jumped to
save himself His body was found on
topEof driftwood against the floor of
the overturned mail car. The water
disappeared almost as quickly as it had
risen and after the first shock and con
fusion the passengers were removed
from the overturned cars.

He was discharged about two months
ago, on account of his eyes. Private
McQuaide has been in the island since

that it is his opinion that it will
take at least 200, 900 men to bring the
war to a successful termination in
reasonable time. He says the natives
are not bad fighters, but they are mis-
erable marksmen. In addition they
get excited during a fight, and go to
pieces quickly. He states that the sol
dier boys call the war in the Philip
pines "McKinley's campaign, " and,
though they, of course fight we'll there
is little enthusiasm among the men,
