100 DEAD IN WRECK.

Awful Disaster on Rio Grnnde Near Pu-
sbI0-Train Went Through Bridge.
The worlds fair flyer on the Denver
& Rio Grande railroad near Eden, 7
miles north of Pueblo, Colo, crashed
through a bridge Sunday night at about
8 O'Clock with terrible disaster. OF the
lbs passengers in wreck only 81 sur
vived.
The wreck occurred on a bridge over
Dry Creek which had been swollen by
a torrent of rain, and as the cars
dropped into the raging stream the oc-
cupants of the coaches were drowned
like rats in a cage. The engine, bag
gage car, smoker and chair cars were
completely immersed in thirty feet of
water, while the POnderous cars were
rolled and cast about in the waters, and
when found were a half mile from
where the fatal plunge occurred Of
the train crew the fireman was the only
one that escaped. By Tuesday 96
bodies had been identified, and it is
calculated that thirty-One more are
missing.
Kansas had victims in the wreck.
Major W. A Whitman, Fort Logan,
Second Infantry, U. S. A, a Kansas
boy, and Miss Ellen Hedenburg, of Sa-
lima, were among the dead, also Miss
Elsie Roland, Of LindsbOrg, Miss Mabel
jenkins, of Lawrence and Gertrude
VOgeI, of Council Grove.
GOOdland railroad trainmen run over
the track where the wreck occurred,
and are familiar with that piece of road
as they are with the track between
GOOdland and Phillipsburg. Rock Is
land trains run from Russell to Pueblo,
and the stretch of track includes the
Dry Creek bridge.

Smallpox In l.. A. Creek.

About a month ago Clarence Sheppard
died at Harmersville, Lower Alloway
Creek, after three days illness. His
body turned black before he died, except
some scarlet spots on the abdomen.
The cause of his death was pronounced
ptomaine poison. A public funeral was
held on March 81, in the Canton Baptist
Church. After MIR. Sheppard's death
his widow and children went to live with
her father, Frank ~Jaquette. On the 18th
Mrs. Clarence Sheppard and two chill
dren were taken sick and the disease was
pronounced smallpox, with which Mr..
Sheppard must have died. The public
funeral exposed several to the disease
and much CONSERVATION has prevailed
since then. The Township committee
ordered the schools and churches closed,
all persons were requested to be vaccinat-
ed at the expense of the Township, and
all places where sickness prevailed we're
quarantined.
Last Sunday Mrs. Frank Sheppard died
and was buried by her husband in a me-
tallic casket left by Coroner G. W. Dem.
A 13-year-old daughter shows signs Of
having the disease.
At the home of Frank Jaquette, at
Harmersville, there are eight cases viz:
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Jaquette, Mr.. and
Mrs. Albert Zane and small child. Mrs.
Clarence Sheppard and two children.
Mrs. James Scudder zeal Harmersville
has varioloid.
The Township Committee hired Glen
Frisby, colored, to wait on the sick, but
he has been seeing CHESTS and left last
Monday. Since then a trained nurse has
been procured by the Committee.
How Mr.. Sheppard got the smallpox at
first is somewhat of a mystery. He fish
ed and trapped and it is reported that he
found a coat along shore, handled OF
wore it, from which he must have got
the disease.
The quarantined victims of smallpox
are in needy circumstance and a relief
fund has been started in Salem and the
towns below there.
In l84S Jonathan Hannah, who lived
in the old farm house, where Elwood
Biddle's house now stands at the corner
of North Broad and Pitman Road, PENIS
Grove, found a bed along the river shore
and handled it. He soon after was taken
sick and died with smallpox. His broth
er, the late James S. Hannah, Esq, bur-
led him under an apple tree near the
house, and later his remains were re-
moved to Emmanuel Church yard.
Persons should he careful how they
pick up and use things found along shore.
