Almost Over a Precipice.

While coming up the Bear creek
grade, about three miles south of Par
ker last Thursday afternoon, the south
bound passenger train ON the ?. q W.
mar NV guage) was derailed by brok-
en- rail The engine and two coaches
left the rails and bumped along the ties,
bouncing the passengers about ike gum
balls, and as they looked out of the car
windows and saw Bear creek 125 feet
below them the widest excitement en-
sued. The engine was stopped just aS
it was about to leave the ties and then it
was discovered that the embankment
had slid down into the creek bed, leav-
ing "A sheer precipice from the ends Of
the ties Had the engine gone off then
the whole train would have been pre-
cipitated on the rocks far below and if
the engineer had not stuck to his post
when death seemed inevitable, this
would have happened. The landslide
had probably caused the track TO sink,
which accounts for the broken rail
The train was tracked again after a
four hour delay There were about
thirty passengers on the train and some
of them became greatly excited.
