AND THE COLD CAME AT LAST
A Great Change In the Weather Oc
cured Sunday Night.
Those who retired Sunday night un
der the usual light covering were out
about 2 a. m. hunting blankets and
quilts—the heaviest they had.
There was a great drop in tempera
ture during the night and Brunswick
lans awoke to the fact that winter
is not gone yet and also that the
weaher man, who had predicted the
cold, could sometime hit the spot.

WRECK ON THE B. & W. RAILROAD
Full Account of Accident Sent out
From Tifton.
Train No. 95, east bound ,on the
Atlantic Coast Line between Bruns
wick and Albany was wrecked at the
141 mile post one mile east of Sum
ner.
The wreck was caused by the
wheels of the tender leaving Uk
track, and the baggage mail and ex
press cars turned over. The loc
mauve did not leave the track hut , u ,
♦lO distance befor it wa top; I
by emergency brakes. The train w;r,
rutMjppffiout 40 or 15 mi 1 s an i.00,,
and The rack was badly torn up and
the cars more or loss damaged. Tin
fact that the wreck occurred on a
cut probably prevented the cars from
turning over.
Strange to say, only one man was
hurt, express agent Bradford, who wa
pietty badly bruised on 'be face and
arm. All the passengers except in
the first-class coach, were badly shak
en up but no one was injured.. Tlu

worst frightened man on the train and
ts escape was a little short of a in;
acle. The negro mail clerk was un
injured, bift: was so dazed that it
was several minutes before he could
get out of his car.
The wrecking train was sent from
Waycross, and a track laid around the
wreck, so that trains were a! le to
pass at 8 o’clock this morning. It
will take some time to completely
clear the wreckage. Mail and pas
sengers were transferred last night
This is the first serious wreck on
this division of the Coast Line foi
some time. It is thought that the ten
der left the track on account of a
defective axle or flange.
