Fri6htfUl Railroad
Accident.

Leadville. Feb. II. Two men are
dead, two dangerously hurt and an
other slightly injured as the result of
an accident on the Denver and Rio
Grande railroad near the Arkansas
valley smelter this morning.
The dead
J. B. Sommers, conductor. burned,
scalded and injured internally.
Leaves widow and two children.
W. E. Rogers. switchman. burned
and scalded about the head and body.
Leaves n widow but no children.
Snow fell Monday night and the
wind came down the gulch drifting
the smelter. When the locomotive
struck the snow the wheels left the
track. In an in nstant the clumsy ma
chine toppled over and slid ON it, side
down a twenty foot embankment into
the ditch.
1t all happened so quickly and un-
exnectedly that none of the men had
time to leap for their lives.
Engineer Spencer and Rogers were
caught under the engine and when the
steam pipes broke and the scalding
flood of deadly vapor poured forth
out of the boiler, they were held un-
der the engine and subjected to fiend-
ish torture.
Sommers attempted to leap out of
the cab window as the engine went
over. He was thrown over the loco
motive and fell in its path as it slid
down the embanmenkt. He was
caught under it like Spencer and Rog-
ers and literally cooked by the steam
and flame from the broken fire box.
At late hour last night. the ply
sician who i, attending Engineer
Spencer reported that Mr.. Spencer
had chance TO recover. He is burned
severely on the left arm, left side of
the body and legs and his limbs are
bruised. The fact that when Spencer
fell his head was buried in the snow
is probably what saved his life. The
snow prevented him from being scald-
ed and burned about the head.

WORKS THE PEOPLE.

Berlin, Feb 16 "A man giving hi /,
name as Schiewaugk and calling him
self an American major has been ar
rested here as a swindler. In society
Schiewaugk wore the uniform of the
United States army and talked of his
brilliant deeds in the American war
with Spain. He had read up the
geography of Cuba and knew all about
its climate and people. He has
studied also the printed description of
the fighting and was an authority on
the rough riders. His position was
strengthened by letter he carried
purporting to be signed by President
Roosevelt. Schiewaugk's bearing
was that of cultivated man of the
world His victims are many and
most of them are in the highest ranks.
from whom he raised money ON vari-
Gus false pretens rs.
As matter of cold fact he belongs
to poor Berlin family. The only
military training he has was obtained

LITERATURE GOING TO WASTE,

1t has always appeared to Us ex-
tremely unfortunate that the many
clever things said extempo1e in our
everyday life cannot in some manner
be preserved. There are those who
think it is we'll as it is, but that class
we ignore. The newspaper man of
course has ample opportunity to work
his witticism, off on the public and
incidentally 70 preserve them. But
the ordinary individual, the mere
man and woman, .pill,th humor and
the world forgetteth it, alas Par
ticular reference is made to the bright
repartee that occurs at mealtime in
the majority of homes. If there i
young man and young woman thus
thrown together at the eating board,
there is sure to be some interesting
and clever darts shot verbally. 1t
begins usually by the lady's resenting
a broad so-called jolly and continues
perhaps in this wise:
'Mr. Mantrell, if your capacity for
avoiding the expression of mean
thoughts were as abnormal as your
capacity for devouring food, you
would not talk that way to me-
"Thank you, Miss Trent. Still
with you at the table, there is no
danger of my getting more than my
share of the victuals.' -
"You don't mean to insinuate, sir,
that am big eaterI'
Pardon me; if 1 only insinuated
it, fell far short of my intentions. :"
''Oh, you-r' And she pouts.
There is silence Tor moment.
Don't you think Miss Trent, that
women who try to keep their age
secret are narrow minded ?"
Indeed, don't!'
"'But if thew are old they show it
anyway. For nuisance, whilst l
could not state your nge exactly. l
am certain that YOU are at least"
"Well, well
''At least-not a child!'
''Mr Mantrell'
"Come now, tell me, how old are

your"
'.f you were gentleman. you
would not ask me-
"'You refuse to tell? Then clearly
YOU are ashamed of YOUR years. -
"Wall, how old do you think
amp"
"You do not look thirty
But you are not answering my
question, p"
''Only because 1 do not wish to en-
barass you before tho com pany.''
''Mr. Mantrell -
miss Trent -
Now wouldn't it be valuable for
future reference and Entertainment to
corral conversation of this kind in a
graphophone? Like interchanges OF
bright talk are common enough. If
record could be kept of them all,
dramatists would not have to pull
their hair out to invent spicy dia-
logues Tor their plays.

1t is gratifying to learn that there
are scores of frien ds working for Miss
Eugene Kelley ON the Times popular
girl contest. Miss Kelly says herself
that she never realized that she had
so many friends. She ascribes much
of the enthusiasm displayed in her
behalf to desire to bring the western
slope to the fore That may have
something TO do with it and it may
not. In any event Miss Kelly's
chance of getting prize are still
good. They will be much better if
you and every one of your friends in
terest themselves in the contest The
Sen incl wishes to say again for quo
tation in other western slope papers
that this office will take care of all
coupons sent in from the outside and
see that they reach Denver and are
properly handled in Miss Kelly's be-
half.

If the president Of the Connecticut Humane So
ciety at Hartford Conn. will not interfere in the
proposed mouse killing contest. President Hatnes
of the Society for the Prevention Of Cruelty 10
Animals said last night. 'I myself shall take a

scheme was originated by Mrs Homer 5. Cummings.
a member OF the board Of directors OF the Con-
necttcut Humane Society. and the wife Of the
prosecuting attorney for the society. he was half
inclined TO regard the whole affair as a gigantic
Joke and bid for advertisement on the part OF the
Connecticut Cat Club
under date OF January 10 Mayor Leeds of STAN
ford wrote Mrs Cummings saying that it seemed
to him that mouse catching contest a feature
OF the cat show would tend TO promote cruelty IN
the community. He asked her not TO have such a
contest
that mouse protecting Mayor a feature OF the
cat show would tend 10 promote levtty in the COM
muuity and asked him not 20 fail 10 have the po-
lice force the grounds. In any case. added
President Hatnes. the mouse killing contest must
mot IA place.
