RAILS LIFTED
THE ENGINE
FROM TRACK
Peculiar Wreck Occurs at
Shopiere When LocOmo-
tive Strikes "Dumpy.''
GAINESVILLE Gazette. J

Engine 1916, northbound from Chi
cago, running light, struck "dunpy''
on which section hands had loaded
some rails and left the tracks at Sho-
pierre. The engine left the Shopiere
station just after 81 had passed and the
section crew had started toward the
station about the same time. The en-
gineer did not see the fagman sent
ahead of the dumpy and was going at
good rate of speed when he hit the
car. The dumpy was smashed and
the rails lifted the engine off the track
Ties were torn up for about seven rail
lengths. The Chicago wrecker was
sent for and Foreman George Rood
and crew from the South Janesville
yards went down to assist in placing
the engine back on the track. The
tank was placed back on the tender
and the engine lifted up by the derrick
on the wrecker, while a temporary
track was built under the engine. The
locomotive was backed onto the main
line and the work of repairing the
damage to the main line was started
and completed about six O'Clock. The
accident caused the blocking of all
traffic north and south and trains that
usually pass through Shopiere were
sent around by way of Alton.

fine flavor. Yesterday between twenty
five and thirty cases were delivered in
the city, the Fruit Growers Associa-
tion getting nineteen of them, and the
grocery dealers picking up the balance.
They continue to sell readily at S4.00 a

Griffith $ greatest feat. though was
in q game between Portland and Seat

he and the afterwards famous Dad
Clarke were opposing each other in the
final game of the season. The game
went fourteen innings. with neither side

Clarke was so angry he refused TO pay

There is one more interesting Incl
dent that stands unique, and IT is one
by which Jimmy Slagle stavcd of dis

inning battle between Chicago and
Philadelphia, which Reulbach finally
won two on one. In the eighteenth i'm

first base, Sherwood Magee drove a
