FELL INTO CREEK
Mr.. and Mrs. Benedict of Nora Springs
Meet With Peculiar Accident-Form-
or Somewhat injured, and One of
Team of Horses, Killed.

Special to Times Republican.
Mason City. Sept. 26.-The killing OF
n horse and the manning of Mr.. Bene-
dict, the driver, Sunday afternoon; was
the result of fall from a bridge APP
proach on Lime Creek Mr. and Mrs.
Benedict, residents of Nora. Springs,
were returning to that city from a visit
in Mason City, by team. Jut as they
were about to drive the team onto the
shed at a new plank in the floor of the
bridge. The team at once began to
back and before Mr.. Benedic: could get
control they had backed the buggy over
the side of the bridge. precipitating
team, conveyance and occupants a
sheer twenty-five feet to the creek bed.
The water was shallow, which caused
little damage in that particular. One
of the horses, after a couple OF found
ers, expired. Mr.. Benedict struck on a
pile of rock. and was badly bruised.
Mrs Benedict was unhurt She had
chung to the buggy top and was rescued
from there later by passersbv. The mar
vel of the accident is that the team In
the fall did not crush the occupants OF
the buggy. 1t Is believed that the
buggy in the descent, struck a projec-
ton which veered it off, and thus kept
1t from landing underneath the team.

was last heard from while en- route

and on the evening of September 10,
had registered at the Burlelgh mouse.
During the night he broke off screen
from his bedroom window and left the
hotel that way. Where he went no
one seems to know. He is described
as Il man about 80 years of age. feet
inch in height. light complexion, and
wears a light mustache. His relatives
fear a sudden mental arrangement is
the cause of the act. but have no cause
to believe even that. His mysterious
disappearance and in such a manner,
has excited much concern. He had
money enough to get home on and had
nothing to face other than the welcome
of relatives. The family have institut-

Special to Times Republican,
Hampton, Sept. 26.-The fiftieth ses
sion of the Upper Iowa conference Of
the Methodist Episcopal church open
ed here today The examination Of cam
didates for the ministry will continue
throughout the entire day and at 1880
this evening the Epworth League An
niversary address will be delivered by
j. T.. Wagner of Manchester, Iowa.
The first opening session of the real
conference will be at $3.50 ON Wednes-
day morning when Bishop Luther B.
Wilson of Baltimore will preside at
the administration of the Holy Com
munion. The attendance here Is large,
the Upper Iowa conference being the
second largest conference in THE west,
the only one larger is the Rock Wall
ley conference in Illinois which en-
braces the city Of Chicago. There are
two hundred ministers in conference
district and two hundred appointments
to be made aside from the college in
structors.
The conference meetings are all to be
held in the Methodist church, it being
the most spacious building in the city.
Eleven years ago when the session of
this same body was held in this city
the meetings were held in large tent
erected near the church. The seating
capacity Of the church is about 1,200
md m has tho largest single audience
room to be found in any Methodist
church in the conference district, with
the possible exception ofthe church at
Davenport.
Bishop Wilson Is a comparative
stranger to the individual members Of
the conference, though he is well
known In the church work. He is ma
tional president Of the Anti Saloon
League, he Is a resident Of Baltimore
and ranks as one Of the leading bish-
ops of the Methodist church Of the
north. Being comparatively new here
Bishop Wilson's appointments are a
subject of much conjecture, some be-
lieving there will be but few new ap-
pointments made, that the great ma
jority will be returned to their old
stations. He will be assisted in the
work by the various presiding elders
who are: Rev. w. f. Pitner, presiding

The train was carrying a freight car
loaded with fast freight, next to the
engine. The front trucks of this car
left the rails and derailed che other
four cars of the train. The baggage
car was thrown on its side and dam
aged considerably. The freight car
which left the track first, was torn to
pieces and the freight strewn along the
right way.
In the baggage car were eighty seven
cans of cream and milk and 1t seems
almost miraculous that the baggage
man escaped without being seriously
injured.

was started to the scene of the wreck
about 1 o'clock, but the wrecker met
