A WRECK AT PEYToN.
Last Friday Morning Second Section OF
Freight No 81 Crashed Into the
Rear End of First Section.

The second section Of Rock Island
freight train No. 81, west bound, crash
ed into the first section at Peyton, Col
early last Friday morning, demOfishing
the cabOose and two cars of the first
train and using up the engine Of the
section section quite badly.
No one was hurt as Engineer Swear
engen and Fireman MCGEE Of the sec
ond train jumped before the crash, but
not until doing all in their power to
stop their train. None Of the crew of
the first train were in the caboose.
A fierce snow storm was raging at the
time and was one Of the causes of the
wreck. Both sections had original
orders to meet a double headed orange
extra east at Falcon, but the meeting
point was changed and the order board
was turned when the first train reached
PeytOn. The section section was close
" following and not knowing that the
meet order had been changed they came
down the hill into PeytOn at a. terrific
rate and crashed into the first train.
Engineer HouIihan Of the first section
heard Engineer Swearengen's whistle
for brakes and tried to get out of the
way, but only succeeded in getting his
heavy train fairly moving when the
collision occurred. Conductor Waters
Of the first section was in the depot
signing for new orders. Conductor
Denney was in charge of the second
section.
Most all the wreckage went south of
the track, leaving the side track clear
for the passage Of other trains without
delay. The wrecked engine came back
to GOOdIand with her own steam on one
side, the other steam chest was knocked
of, and with a barrel for a smoke stack.
Superintendent T. c. Smith, Colo
radO Springs, and Trainmaster Boyle,
Of GOOdland, and other Rock Island
officials held a meeting here Saturday
investigating the causes Of the wreck.
Brakeman ". J. Mcfarland Of the first
section was discharged for not properly
protecting the rear Of his train by flag
ging the section section, and Brakeman
Green Of the second train was also dis
charged for not being out on top going
into a station. The other members of
both crews were exOnerated from blame
for the accident.

On Wednesday night, while on MS
way homeward, ". l. White heard a
distant pistoIshot Quickening his
pace toward the report he heard the
voice Of a woman screaming "mUrdeF!"
Setting the pace for a $40 horse, he
pulled up atthe Gipsy's tent, where the
disturbance came from. He saw the
gigantic, bearded rufian grasping the
arm Of the Gypsy queen, while the dark
eyed medium and fOreteller Of future
events screamed in mortal terror. Mr..
White was neither city marshal nor
constable. but he was equal to the
occasion. Rushing into the tent be
seized the burly rufian by the coat
collar and said: Consider yourself
under arrest! Come with mel" There
upon the Sybyl broke forth into hys-
terical screams and sObs, at the pros
pect of losing the society Of her bosom
companion. The nOnchalant, self con-
stituted marshal said: "YOu come
along tool" remem boring the "whOm
God hath joined together let no man
put asunder,1 Of the prayer book. He
brought them before HOyt Andrews,
in chambers, and the charge made by
the prophecies was the most strange
and sensational ever made TO court.
For particular enquire Of the court.
The judge sentenced the man to be
mulct in the sum Of 81 for the lady's
entertainment for the night at the
Commercial hotel, whittier she was
locked up. WhereupOn
the accused was dismissed and the
court adjourned.

The rains Of last week were followed
BY another heavy dOwnponr on Sunday

night to a large house, but did not put
