Narrowly Escape a Wreck

narrowly escaped being wrecked in
the Menasha Wooden Ware yards
here Monday noon, on account Of
the switch near the river bridge be-
ing left open. The engineer had just
opened the throttle to gain speed to
climb the grade from the river, when
the train shot onto the Menasha
switch. There were several Lady
smith people on board and they re-
ceived quite shaking up when the
air brakes were suddenly applied.
The train slid quite distance into
the yard and there would undoubted-
ly have been q collision had there
been any freight cars standing there,
as is generally the case. AS it was.
the train stopped only a short dis

SAFE CRACKERS

Monday night or Tuesday morn
son at Glen Flora, ten miles east of

being made through a rear window.
The post office is located in the drug
store and the proprietor is the post
master. The town has no bank ana
a considerable amount OF money is
sometimes held for a short time in
the post office. The burglars, OF
which it is estimated there were
three, picked up the $50 pound safe
and carried it to the 500 railroad
track, sliding it along the rail for
quite a distance west from the town,
where they blew it open beside the
track with rO-glycerine. They

as the charge was SO heavy that the
safe was literally blown to pieces and
scattered about for four or five rods.
II h e cracksmen probably sought
refuge during the explosion in q box
car standing on the side-track OF the
Coon Lumber Co. L h e contents,
which consisted of $3.50 in coin and
currency and $3.50 inpOstage stamps,
was scattered further and some OF
the bills were torn into such small
bits by the explosion that their de-
nomination could not be learned.
i is believed that the morning linn
tied picked up and carried in its
wake much of the paper and small
coins, as it was found scattered
along the track for thirty rods. The
whole town was out the next morn
ing searching for money, and about
800 was recovered.
Sheriff Reed was notified at once
and went to the scene, but could find
no clues. A quantity Of jeWelry was
taken from the store, which may
lead to the apprehension OF the
thieves. 1t is doubtful whether they
secured much if any of the contents
of the safe. They could have made
their "get away" by taking the linz
tied at this city, or on some passing
freight as it was climbing a steep
grade.
The explosion was heard by Mrs.
c. A. Coon about Il. m, but she
did not suspicion any mischief.
There is no reason to believe that
it was the same gang that did the
Job at Weyerhauser a few weeks ago.
