A NARROW ESCAPE
California Limited Jumped the Track
on an Embankment.

The Las Vegas Optic says: No. :,
California Limited which reached the
city this afternoon at 1920, met with
an accident near Thatcher last night
which might easily have proven one Of
the most serious ever occurring on the
Santa Fe. AS it was no one was in-
jured and little damage done except to
the observation car. While the swell
train was rushing along at a rafting
clip q broken rail caused the whole train
to leave the track. BY the greatest good
luck the cars bumped along on the ties
and stopped at the very verge of the
embankment. All the cars kept them
feet. The passengers received shaking
up they will remember for some time.
but no one seemed to be the worse for
the experience. The observation car
was badly sprung. 1t was left behind
and the train pulled into Las Vegas
with five cars. It causes a shudder TO
think of the scene had the train pitched
over the embankment Several hours
delay was caused. The theory is that
the sudden drop to almost zero tempera-
ture caused the rail to snap.
