Tough Times in Westville.

Judge Homer Ansley. the sage Of the
Reynolds building. whose place of ma
tivity is Westville. several miles east
of Gary on the Wabash. has received
copies of the paper of his home town
telling of the extraordinary excite
ment there during the past week
When part of the B. & o. railway right
of way sank at Woodville the trains
were detoured over the Wabash via
Westviile Natives of Westville who
have been accustomed to the slow go
ing Wabash flyers were much upset
when they saw as many as six trains
day pass through their town.
Speaking of this feature of the trou-
BILE the Westville Indicator says:
The railroad situation here took on
congested state, there being at times
half a dozen trains in the Monon and
Wabash yards here. Whistles were
blowing and bells ringing day and
night. The Wabash has an overhead
bridge over the Monon, and the con-
Meeting has steep grade and sharp
curve. Getting the heavy trains up
took two engines, and the hard usage
played havoc with the Y. and made a
lot OF work for the section hands"
Those Westvillians will now have
good excuse If their eggs do not
hatch well. They can blame it on the
humping and jolting of those trains,
the continuous ringing of bells, blow
ing of whistles. swearing of the train
crews, etc.
