RAILWAY ACCIDENT.
Rare Presence of Mind Of Mrs. voliva-A
Smash-Up at Toppenish.

A local freight was standing on the
main track at the depot at Toppenish sta
ton, this county. last Saturday after
noon. Another freight train. bound
west, with a new engine and new en-
gineer, came along and crashed into the
rear of the caboose, which it proceeded
in Graeco-Roman style to toss over it's
head. The caboose landed over engine
and tender into coal car, total wreck.
The new engine was smashed almost be-
yond recognition by the encounter. A
lady, Mrs. Voliva, who was on her way
to Yakima to visit relatives. had two
children in her charge, one years and
the other years old. When the crash
came, with rare presence of mind she
seized each of the children by al arm
and sprang to the forward platform and
thence to the ground, thus escaping inn
pending death. The lady was badly
shaken up but not seriously injured.
City Engineer Arnold ard Dell Hiscock
were eye witnesses it is reported, Of the
collision, which was a terrible one to re-
suit in no loss of life

The Primaries Largely Attended and Great
Interest Shown In the Result.

Despite the steady down. pour Of rain
about $50 people assembled at the city

elected chairman and Messrs. Thompson
and Courier were chosen secretaries.
The chair appointed committee Of three
on rules and order of business, Messrs.
Thomas, Enplehart and Redfeld. After
the committee had reported the bslloting
began. 1t was evident that u slate had
been prepared which however was soon
smashed and the representative voters
present impatient of the dictation of
bossism proceeded to execute their own
will in their own way.
Influential friends of Vestal Snyder
were active and energetic in support of
their candidate. But it was soon appsr-
ent that H. Il. Riggs friends were equal
ly alert under the leadership of Repre-
sentative Englehart. The mayorslty
candidates, Messrs. Fechter and Redman,
were secondary to the city attorneyship
fight rs everybody seemed particularly
interested on this question.
The contest for the mayoralty was
short and decisive. Messrs. Donald,
Howard and Robertson, the tellers, had
all they could do to record the votes of
the surging crowd which good naturally
jostled about the table. 1t was believed
by many that Mr.. Redman, who was
absent at Toppenish, would not allow
his name to be used. His friends how
ever, were determined and the vote at
tested his popularity. Redman received
l3l votes and Fechter "a.

places had recorded opposite their respec-
