Wayne Democrat: One of the
strangest accidents that ever hit this
line of railroad was pulled off this
side of Wakefield last Monday morn
ing, by the east-bound train. The
front trucks under the engine dropped
off and out of commission entirely, the
train sliding along forty rods before
being stopped, and no other damage
occurring. 1t was like a man falling
off a seven-story building and not be-
ing scratched.
Wayne Democrat: President Pile
is again seriously i'll, a professional
nurse being here to care for him. The

to Lincoln over-taxed the educators
strength and he has not been making
satisfactory recovery.

Norfolk people counted by the cen
sus taker, City Clerk Harter, at noon

sus advances that if the 5000 mark is
passed at all it will probably be by
very narrow margin.
