"For skeercely anything. The wcav-

that don't count"
"And the thread for the woof?" sug-

"Well, that might be a few dollars

added Why, altogether, these two

Grandpa was standing behind us,

WRECKED
WAS THE EAST-BOUND OVERLAND
LIMITED AT COMO EARLY
THIS MORNING.
Started Down Sidetrack, Forcing
Baggage Car, Composite Car and
Sleeper From Rails-No One Hurt
But Tramp.

Union Pacific train No. 2, the Over
land Limited, due here at A o'clock
this morning from the west, was
wrecked at the switch at the west end
of the yards at Como, ten miles west
of Medicine Bow and sixty-six miles
west of Laramie, at 2:30 this morning.
were hurt, the only personal injury
sustained being by a tramp, who was
stealing a ride, and who had his wrist
broken.
The train was about 35 minutes late.
1t had passed train No. l, and vas bow
ling along at the usual speed 1t was
drawn by engine 1924, with Engineer
Farley Mathison at the throttle, and
Conductor Kerrigan in charge. When
the switch was reached the engine
wheels passed over safely, but those
under the tender left the main line
and started down the passing track.
They were dragged from the rails, of
course, and the tender was thrown
crosswise of the track. This derailed
the baggage car, the composite car
following and the first sleeper of the
train. but the cars did not turn over,
and neither the baggageman nor a sin
gle passenger was injured in the least.
Engineer Mathison stuck to his post.
and the second he felt the slight jar
when the wheels of the tender split
the switch and started down the side
track he shut OF steam, reversed the
engine and applied the emergency air
brake, and to this precaution is due the
fact that the damage, considering the
seriousness of the wreck, is compare
lively light.
The composite a and sleeper took
fire from the escaping Pintch gas from
the broken Illuminating pipes, but the
flames were soon eXtinguished and
very little damage occurred from this
source.
The train was made up entirely of
Pullman %sleepers, and is considered
one of the most solidly built and best
equipped trains west of the Mississippi
river. and to this is due the fact that
none of the real cars left the rail and
the passengers were hardly more than
awakened from healthy sleep.
Wrecking outfits were sent from
Laramie and Rawlins and the track
was cleared at 1870 this afternoon.
East-bound trains were delayed until
then. Como is not a night telegraph
office, and word was taken to Allen
Junction. 5R miles away. on a hand
car.
The trucks of the three derailed cars
were sloughcd around a good deal, and
the track torn up some. but the cars
remained in an upright position. $ o
that the work of the w~reckers was
comparatively easy. Assistant Super
intendent Whitney, who was west of
, the wreck. reached there not long af-
ter it occurred. and General Foreman
Tierney accompanied the %wrecking
outfit from this city.

KUSTER
SELLS HIS INTEREST IN THE
RAMBLER AT A VERY
BIG FIGURE.
Assayer Suddenly Thrust in
Among the Shrewd Moneyed Men
Of the Mining World-Receives a
Sum Approximating One Hundred
Thousand Dollars for His Shares
in the Mine.

Charles kuster, Jr., the largest in
dividual stakeholder in the now ia
nous Rambler copper mine, and the
young man to whom should be given
vein, has sold his interest in the com
pany. representing about o%ne-fourth of
the capital stock, to A. Z, Humphrey
of Denver, the figures of the purchase
price closely approXimating Sl0O,O 600.
The deal has been under way for
some days, but was not concluded un-
til late last evening, when sufficient
money was put into the hands of Mr..
Kuster to warrant the assertion that
the sale has been contaminated.
Mr.. Humphrey, it is understood, has
been trying to secure a controlling in
terest in the property, but failing in
this, not because he had not offered
enough, but rather hat the holders did
not care to %relinquish their holdings,
he took what he could get. and will
work in entire harmony with the other
interests in pushing the mine for all
there is in it.
A gentleman who has kept himself
posted from first to last in the Ram
hler's affairs did not hesitate to eX-
press his qualification at Mr.. Kuster's
good fortune, and spoke in the highest
terms of his connection with the dis
covery and development of the vein.
Mr.. kuster. just graduated from a
Chicago technical school. and full of
the vim that makes giants, was Sent
to the Rambler, then producing a very
low grade of ore, to experiment with a
secret he had become possessed of for
treating low grade ores at small cost.
He followed the vein foot by foot,
noting that the ore increased in rich
ness as the vein was penetrated, buy
ing stock as he could and hoping for a
turn of fortune that has overtaken
him.
1t is said thai this sale cannot but
be of benefit to the mine, as Mr.. Hum
phrey is a man of much experience. of
unlimited means and imbued with the
value of the property.

Sir Thomas Upton, Designer Wat
son and party went on board the
Shamrock III. this morning, aud,
after consultation with Capt. Syca-
more, it was decided to start at 2:30
this afternoon for sail down the
bay.
Talking this morning with Sir
Thomas, he spoke with great conf
dence over the result, saying;
81 really feel and believe the
Shamrock II. will lift up the cup
this time. Watson is, without ques-
ton, the best man in Britain, aud l
feel that he has planned the best
boat on either side"
After looking over the Shamrock
a conference was had between Wat
son, Sycamore and Hillyard. There
is no doubt what Sycamore thinks
of the two American boats, but the
Shamrock people feel that they
have the best sail and that there is
the advantage to their craft.
There is good breezs blowing
