A Railway §mash-up at Valley | Station, The Steam and Flames Get in Their Work. Shortly before midnight on Thurs- day a serious accident occurred on the Union Pacific rond at Valiey station, which came near resulting in a loss of life as well as of property, An east bound freight train, No, 20, was at the statlon doing some switching, being nearly ready to pull out for Omaha, when an extra, also east bound arrived at the station also, The latter was running at a moderate rate of speed and necing the red sig- nals of the train in advance of them, undertock to stop, but the track wae slippery and althoagh the engine was reversed and the sand .box emptied on stently forward and the engine went orashing into the caboose attached to No. 20, which it completely wrecked, while a refrigerator car next to the caboose telescoped with a oar of bullion next to it, and both were badly smashed. The engine, No. 62, which was on its first trip, had its rmoke stack and other fixtures on the boilers torn off, and the steam rushed out with a ter- rific nolse, filling the caboose and hid- ing the wreck from sight, In the caboose were Mrs. J. O Paynter, of the Occidental hotel in this city, with her son, sged sixteen and her daughter, aged reven ‘years, who were returning from a visit to Columbus, The caboote was thrown high in the air and turned a complete somersault, alighting on the ground to be filled with the escaping steam, Mrs. Paynter and her children were asleep on the seats in the eaboose and the former was caught beneath the stove from which she was released by her son and, aided other parties all made their escape from the car, Mrs, Paynter was quite seriougly burned ms scalded and was carried immediately to the hotel, where sho every seat in the opera honse w.s disposed of, and a proposition was mado to put 500 chairs on the stage.

Tho Oloth Gets Away With the Hr- mine in Good Shape.

The minister was ‘‘on to the racket” immediately, and his eyes shone with brilliancy in anticipation of a fine fat fee. * Awaiting a suitable opportuntty he slipped his card, with his profession and place of res/dence accompanying his name, into the hands of the groom, The result was that instead of being married by the judge they had the ::xfiu knot tied by the pastor who introduced himself In so timely a maoner, It was o pretty cool Invasion of the territory of another, but it was suc- cessful, and the judge don’t know whether to laugh or be angry.

The Remarkable Bucces: of One of Our Most Priiseworthy Tosetitutione, It has been but a few months since the Omoha savings bunk was incor. vorated and opened up for business, in a department which had hitherte been entirely neglested, In fact it was a matter of wonder that with the advancemont aud growth of this city an eateryrise so pecullarly importany to a population like ours had never been inaugurated. On the 4th of Docember it opened up for business 1n the Millard hotel block, and it has just moved into new and more commodious quartors, those formerly ocoupied by the Omaha Na- tional bank, on the southwest corner of Donglas and Thicteenth atrect. This property was purchased for the sam of $16 000, and they havo fitted up the banking roomsia a style as oconveniens as a:y in Omaha, and as olegant as any, with a single excop- tion, The walls and coflings have been frescoed in attractive designs; the sounters and railings have recelved a new dress of paint; the flsor has been Iaid with heavy oil cloth; and new deska and other furniture have been supplied. The banking room through- out presents a neat, cloan and attrac- tive appearance. The main features of the bank accommodations are the fire-prooi and burglar-proof safes—one on the firat floor and one in the base- ment—they beiog the same as were used by the Omaha National, whose officers had ' them constructed in the most careful and substantial manner, without regard to expense, Besides, the Savings bank has one of the very best burglar-proof ssf.-s, which is placed within the vault, thus making protection doubly sure. 1In short, for central location, conveniences for tranunoting business, and for mafety and dispatch s well as comfort, the Omaha Savings bank is the equal of :n{‘ in this part of the country. 'his bank was started in Sspteémber to supply a long felt want in our mid) Every city cof this size and especially with a population made up of working men and salaried clerks is incomplets without such an institu- tion, as all onght to ‘“‘save up for a rainey day” and there were no espec ial 1aducsments offered for zuch a pur- pose. This back started in with stookholders all of whom saro nam- bered among our mest solid and wealthy citizens and with officers known to every cilizan 2s able in themselyes to furnish security for the ontire obligativa to be incurred by the institution. With a capital stock of $160,000, with liabil- ity upon stocknolders of $300,000, and no money invested except upon approved real estate or collatoral curity, no risk is had by those desir- log a libaral inter:s; upon savings. Then, again, a leading advautaze over commercial banks wa3 that deposits could be withdrawn at any time without the forfeiture of a ponny cf interest. “ To accommodate the shop men and other workers who could not con- veniently go to bank during working hours the baok is kept open on Satur- day’s from 6 to 8 p, m., its hours on other days being trom 9 a. m, to 3:30 . 1, The growth of business proves the importance of the enterprise. It now has 1,000 dppositors, whose deposits amount to $199,000, and it is ex- pected that the total deposits on the lat of Jenuary will amount to over $200,000. The capital stock is'$160,000, and the Iiability of the stockholders is $300,000. That it is & safe institutlon is proven by a glance et the let of stocsholders, among whom are some of our wealthiest and best known business men, whose ag- grogate wealth, at a hasty estimate, is considerably over $1,500,000. The object of this bank is to afford o secaro Investment to porsons of elther sox who regsive money in small sums, and are desirous of saving it; to assist ard encourage the indus- trious and frugal to lay by such part of thelr earnings as they may be able to spare, Deposits of §1 and upward are received, and interest is paid at the rate of b per cont. per aunum, com- pounded semi-annually, Deposits need not be left for any specifio time, but are payable on demend, in such sums as may be desired, and interest allowed on all sums to date of with. drawal, The cashior of the bank, Mr, John E. Wilbur, is known to all man of experience In the busine: every respeot well fitted for position, He is always courteous and obliging and the other employes of the back will be found the same. An- other yoar is destined to see a marvel- ous growth in the business of this in. stitution, MYSTHRY OF A HUUSE. It s Left Like tbe Enchanted Cities In the Areblan Knights, A few days ago & man appeared at police headqaarters and told a remark- ¥ (able story te Marshal Angell. He said that his wifehad been doing wash- ing for a family named Harding, who lived on Eighteenth «ireet, south of 8t. Mary's avenua, Oa that morning ehe had gone to got her work as usual, and found, to hor surprise, that the family had de- parted, The housc was well furnished aud had beon lof: in that condition, The table was epread as if for dinuer, and the edibles, pie, oske, ete., were left on the plates untouched as if the departure of isie family had been very euddon and lnespscted. The moat surprising pert of the whole affair was,| that while the silverware was all left on the table and had remained uu- touched, all the doors wore open so that anyoue might bave ontered and carried off all the valusbics, Tho beds were loft in & disordered xlgzdi:lon, but the trunks and wearlng 1 were goue rshal Angell detailed Officers Walker and Sigwart to go to the resi- denoe atei lock it up secorely, and they found it in the condition above narrated Inquiries developed the fact that they had stated that they were goicg over into Towa to stay over the holi- days, but to what part was n.t kuown, and under any ciroumatances the case is & myatorisus one. There are various theories vwhi h might account for the state of affairs, The occupauts may have gone away suddenly and left the house in dir« order and the deors unlocked throuch haste or carclessnces. Or, they mny have left things secure and some wag ¢ish friendn may have gone to the houne, spread the table and feasted at their expense, intending to pive them a surprise on their return, On the other hand they may haye decamped, though no one would be apt to do that and leave & tableful of silverware behind. 8till again the house may have been in- vaded, the occupants murdered and their bodies dispozed of, while the robbors were frightened away before they could secure their booty. There are a good many theorics but none are entirely satisfactory and the mystery will probably remain a mye- tery until the family returns, AT LONG RANGE Completion of the Telephone Line to Lincoln. The Inter-City Telophone company yeaterday completed their line con- necting Omaha aud Lincoln and last night there was a lively interchange of compliments between the various representatives of the proas in the two cities, The connection has been made for several days past by using a tem. porary awitch of telegraph wire, but now the company has its own line ex- clusively. This brings Omaha in tolephonic communication with the ntate capital, Fremont, Blair and Ar- lington in Nebraska and with Council Bluffs in Iowa, making a large terri: tory already covered. Last evening the Lincolan Journal offico was connected with an office in Blair and a conversation held with Mr. E. W. Crowell, of the latter city, which was very satisfactory, The distance between the two persons talking was 118 miles, about the longest now practically in use, Omaha and Lincoln are but 71 miles apart and tho sound of the voice is much more audible than in talking with Council Biuffs, only four miles away. There is no telling to what limit the ingenuity of men will carry this busi nsoes, but we shall probably ses the day not many years hence when a cit- izen of Omaha can converse at will with a friend at any city 10 any state in the union, FLOUR Wholesals.
