TWO KILLliD AND SliVERAL INJURLD. Hrcman McLwan and a flan Named 5alsbury Killed. Brakeman Flook and Others Severely Injured. "I always liked 1758 and now h has killed me." At about half past eleven o'clock on Sunday night Conductor Al Morris, al most exhausted arrived on foot at the telegraph atalion at West Fork, and out tbe aad intelligence over the wires that the north bound freight iu his charge and that of Engineer E.J. Stroud bad alruck a stump about midway be tween there and Nichols aud was io the jih The train, a slated, wsicooaiog north, aud wa running jut about on the time of the north bound passenger train which waa late. It waa moonlight and the engineer could ei-e the rail ahead of him for (mine distance, and the train wa smoothly gliding aloog at about a 25-uiile an hour rate apparently free (rem danger. Suddenly (here appeared on Ibe aide hill, some ouu hundred aud Oily (eel above Ibe track, a cloud of dust moving rapidly down the hill presenting tbe appearance ol a herd ol cattle run ning toward the water. It waa caused bv a huge stump ol a tree which had brcn loosened irntn it position by the Ore that bad recently passed over that svcliuu, and jarred by pissing trains, finally gave way and rolled down, lodg ing in Ibo ditch aud extending half way across the track. It was too late lo slop. All that could be duue was to shut off team, apply tho brakes aud lesacn the foice of the impact as much ae possible. Tbe engineer saw the danger aud knew that tbe train must iuevilably go iulo tbe liver, lurty leet below. To jump would be ccilain death, as iu Ibe I wink liug ol au eye the space where they would alight would be covered with wreckage. To reiuaiu al their ymeX offered little less chance of escape. Tbe tliemau ws ou tbe left aide of the en gine, tbe engineer ou (be right and ltrakemau Flook whb Billing ou tbe cor ner of tbe taok or lender just behind the engineer. When Ibe pilot struck the obstruction it turned tbe engine cross wise aud it started dow n the bank right side up, but tho cars immediately behind pulled tbo bind end ol tbe engiuc around aud l.e;ided it up stream but wbeu it reached tbe bottom it turned over ou the fireman'e side, tbe cab on that side wa torn off aud Firoman McKwan pinioned uuder the wreck. Engineer Stroud went through the cab window aud over the drive wbe!s into the water. Flook was thrown from his seat but escaped with a few bruiees and burns. When Engineer Stroud went to tbe relief of his fireman, be made the ob servation at the bead ol this article, "I alway liked 'seventeen fifty eight' and now she! has killed me." Tbe oor fel low'a arm waa fractured but he was so badly scalded from tbe eecapiug eteam that came from a broken injector, that death ensued 13 hour later, just alter he waa brought to Koseburg. Conductor Morria made bis way forthwith back to West Fork, the nearest telegraph eta lion, to send news of the disaster to tbe officials and also to warn the north bouud overlaud uow momentarily expect ed and at tbe same time eeut a brake man forward with instructions to go on to Nichols and iutorin the crew of the freight train waiting there, what had happened. There was a light engine at West Fork. This was utilised lo bring down tbe section crew, aud Train Mas ter Ceo. Estes italhered up a force ol men bere and with Dr. J. C. Twitchell I the local surgeou ol the S. P. Company repaired forthwith to the eeeuo of the I wreck. On arriviug there be tapped the I wires aud opeued a telegraph elation makiug arrangements lo transfer tbe I Daasemsers and mail from one overlaud I " train lo the other W lieu the uninjured meu bad recov red from Ibe tirst shock of the accident aud bci:aii to cast ubout (or Ibe exlout of the damage aud loes ol life aud limb, they louud iu additiou to tbe tiremau McLwau, that another uiau, who was probably riding ou llio Iruckt), w aa uu der the wheels ol oue u( the freight cars and life eitiuct. Ilia name was louud to be Salsbury. Three others, namely were also iu tho wreck. Of thete the two former each bad bis left leg broken, aud Coffey sustained several bruise aud a spraiued aukle.

One of tbe few places on the coast that seems to have escaped tbe pinching timea that afflicted lbs reat of the coun try is Gardiner, a little town of Douglas county, located on tbe Umpqua river, about ten mile from its mouth. Tbo traveller approaching it is at once struck with the beauty of its location and tbe tidy appearance generally of the place. It's houses arc all painted white. One of the conditions exacted by the townsite owners when a lot is sold to an Intending builder ia that the bouse, or building, when erected shall be painted white. Here is uniformity without monot ony and beauty without variety ai far aa artificial coloring is concerned. But it must not bo understood that the laud sraie is nothing but a big patch of con tinuous aud unbroken whiteness. Al most every house bu it garden which at thia eeaaou ol the year is at it beat, and the creeping vine that entwine the posts of the porches and up Ibe side" of tbe building terminating in buncbee of living green, with the variegated color of the (lower beds form all the variety needed. And tbeu the selling of the village would make glad tbe eye ol an artist. In front tlows the lordly Ump qua at Ibis point, which ia just below tbe junction ul its chiel coutlueu', Smith iivor.it is more than a mile iu width aud ill channel of suMicienl depth lo ad- mil of the ingress aud ogres ol ocean vessels ol considerable Ue. Al this moment tho three mast schooner 'Louise" is at the mill loading with lumber (or Sau l'edro. The current in front of tbe city alternate, flowing up and down iu accordance as the tide ebbs or tlows. Tbo tides here are about eight (eet. Behind the city there i a high hill or range ol bills and those are cov ered wilh a thick erowth of lirs, whose dark green foilage set of! the white of the city buiiuings and tue uriguier green ol tbe leaves ol tbo deciduous tieea lo tbe best advantage. There is no duat, as teams are very lew but tbe town cow roameth at will withersoever she listetb. Tbe climate is all that could be desired. It is cut oil' from the full force of the nor' wester blowing in from (he ocean by the hill before mentioned, so that when tbey reach here their force is brokcu and (hey become gentlo, cooling cepbyrs The houses are all tilled and the men are all employed. The principle, in fact the only employers aro tne uaruicer Mill Compauy and the enterprises chief ly owned and managed by A. W. Keed, namely the Gardiner Packing Co., the creamery and tbe tannery. The mill is now being operated eight hours per uay and baa been running steadily for some three months. A reduction waa made recentlv in the wage ol the men, but it i probable at that rate wilh steady em ployment mey win earn more man formerly wbeu they worked a while and played a while. It is to be hoped, hov ever, mat tno unproved conaiuou oi tbe country will create a better demand for the output ol the mill and enable tbe company to restore tbe old wages and run on full time aa well. Thia mill is one of the best equipped in tbe country and has a capacity of 100,000 leet per day. F. W. Jewett is manager and Mr. isrowneii tne foreman, tie nas put in hi whole life in saw mill and understands the business thoroughly. There are four schooners that ply be tween this nort and California regularly. A. W, Reed's creamery, located just below town in tbe midst of maguilioent meadows on which several hundred cat tie ol the Jersey, liolslein and Durham varieties are tiuielly (eeding or contented ly chewing tho cud, ia a comparatively uew concern, but is quite a help to the farmers of Smith river, wbicb is the chief farming settlement. A gasolene launch goes up tho river ev.ry evening and relurus tbe next morning villi the milk. The farmers are paid 60 cents per 100 itouud for milk tealing (our ier cent of butter fat, and more or leas according a the milk ia richer or poorer. The creamery uow i making about 300 notiudaol butter iter day. Nearly all ol Ibis goes to Sau Francisco. It ia first class butlor.
