Escapes with Life.
FULLERTON, N. D.. Feb. 14.-When
the eastbound 500 passenger train
pulled into the station here yesterday
the engineer discovered on the pilot
of his engine the dashboard of wag-
on and sack OF flour. The bars of
the pilot were smeared with blood and
the engineer at once notified head
quarters that an accident had happen
ed and an investigation was started.
1t was found that farmer living
several miles from Fullerton had been
to town for supplies. AS all the roads
were impossible, he started his team
down the 500 track on his hOmeward
journey. Owing to blizzard, neither
the engineer nor the farmer was awar'
of their proximity. In the nick OF
time, however, the farmer realized
his danger and jumped to save his
life. His wagon was smashed to
splinters. however, and his horses
killed.

to Rescue Playmate.

BALTIMORE. Md, Feb. 14.-The
story of a double drowning today in a

vealed as a youthful hero. Carl No
week, IA years DID, who gave up his
life in an effort to save that of his
chum. Albert Schmidt, a year older
than Noweck. who had broken through
thin ice while skating.
Noweck made his way to the place
where Schmidt was struggling in the
water. but in his effort to drag his
friend to safety the ice under him
gave way and both We're drowned.
A number of men and boys on shore
looked on. apparently too frightened
to act. until too late to save the lives
of the two boys in the water. The
bodies We're recovered.

land late last night so that the order
here WAS not received until shortly
before 10 o'clock. Notice was given
the postoffice and hotels. and large
number of persons left. on the special.
No train will be run to Wallula to-
night but if repairs on the. bridge at
lumber are completed tomorrow morn
ing as is hoped the regular train will
be run tomorrow night at 9 o'clock
to connect with the Portland flyer.
1t is probable that tomOrrOw's sche-
dule to Pendleton will be a duplicate
of that run today. If the bridge at Jul
niper is repaired the train from Spo-
kane will run through to Pendleton
and the PendletOn train instead OF
turning at Juniper as it is doing today
will go through to Spokane. In any
case it is likely that a special will be
sent out from here to Wallula to-
morrow morning to make connections
with north and south bound trains.
The work train sent out OF here on
the Dayton branch is reported to have
reached Waitsburg. If this is true the
Dayton branch will probably be run
ming tomorrow.
No Direct Line Till Tuesday.
The direct line from this city to Pen
dleton will probably not be in work
ing order before Tuesday of next week
but it is possible that trains will be
running to Starbuck direct, Saturday Or
Sunday. The Pomeroy branch is open
again.
No more washOuts are expected in
the near future and it is now merely
a question of repairing the damage
that has been done
The train from PascO arrived four
hours late today. 1t had five passen-
ger and mail coaches. besides sever
al freight cars A big bunch of accum-
ulated mail was brought in on this
train.
