REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Pana. ILL.,. July Only the heroisn Of an
engineer who stuck to his post saved the
lives of a trainload of passengers on the
Clover Leaf Railway near here yesterday
morning.
Shortly after o'clock the engineer looked
out the cab window and saw that the
bridge which spans the Okaw River was in
flames. There was only short distance
around the curve to the bridge, and it
looked almost like certain death. but he re-
matned in the cab and applied the brakes.
While the fireman Jumped he remained by
his, brake lever and stepped the train as the
pilot just projected across the first trestlc.
A large section of the bridge had burned
away, and mad the train proceeded many
yards further il surely would have plunged
mo the river below with frightful loss of
life. Nearly all of the passengers were
asleep at the time. and did not know OF
their narrow escape until hours afterwards.
They then thanked the engineer for his rare
nerve ana prescu of mind.
e. Thirty minutes before the train was due
the Waterman discovered the flames. and.
being unable to extinguish them. ran on TO
Cowden station to give the alarm. He did
rot return in time to flag the oncomIrg
train and ii passed the last telegraph sta
tion before message could be sent
1t is supposed the fire was caused by Goals
dropped from passing train.

Among all the stage favorites OF the
present day, none exceed IN popularity
Adelaide Thurston the dainty little
actress who has recently completed her
third tour in the principal cities of the

most In the affections of theatre gDers.
Miss Thurston's tours extended into
the northwest as we'll, and while In

climax in the destructin of costly
stage properties. The leader of the

superb violin, OF which he was des-
perately proud, to CIaxton Wilstach,
manager of the company, who says he
is connoisseur in Cremonas. BY
some CHASTITY mistake the property
man mistook Muhlenbruch's instru-
ment for one Of the prop violins
that are broken at every performance
at cost of SO. 90. A few moments
later the young minister In the play
who in a frenzy of jealousy breaks his
wife's violin over the pulpis top, re
duced the $900Villaume totooth- picks.
1t cost the management large sum
to satisfactorily settle things with the

gard for dramatic unlties prevented
him from rewriting the third act OF
