DEATH OF JOHN EBERLE.

Saturday’s Lafayette Journal. John Eberle, who has been a resident of this county for over fifty years, passed away yesterday afternoon at 1:45 o’clock at the family residence, two miles north of the city. He had been ill for four years, suffering almost constantly with asthma. Although his affliction was great, he endured his suffering without complaint. He was born in Hesse-Darmstadt, Germany, on April 1, 1838, and came to this county when a young man. He was married on Februery 3, 1863, to Miss Clara Buffert, who survives. The following children also survive: Sister M. Modesta and Sister M. Bartholomia, of*Humphrey, Neb., members of the Franciscan Order; 3lrs. Joseph Nagle, of Rensselaer; Margaret and John Eberle, of this city. He leaves one sister, Mrs. Wm. Gushwa, who resides in Goodland, and one brother, who lives in this city. Mr. Eberle was a member of St. Boniface church, the St. Joseph society and St. Boniface society. He was a gardener by occupation and his entire life was spent in industry. He was an honest and upright man, and was held in high esteem by all who knew him. The funeral will be conducted from St. Boniface church on Monday morning at 10 o’clock and the interment will be made in St. Joseph’s cemetery.

EXCURSION TRAIN WRECKED.

About twenty-seven tickets were sold herq last Sunday for the Indianapolis excursion. The train met with a mishap at Rossville and only a miracle saved great loss of life. When slowing down for that station a spread rail caused the engine and four cars to leave the track, and the track was torn up for 100 feet or more. One twisted rail came up through the floor of the baggage car, narrowly missing a Hammond man who was in the car. It is asserted that it did knock his hat off his head. The engineer reversed* his engine and turned on the air brakes, and aside from a shaking up no one was hurt. The engine was quite badly wrecked and some of the cars racked considerably. The excursionists remained in Rossvijle until 2 p. m., when a special came out from Indianapolis and took them into the city, arriving there about four o’clock. It is asserted that the crowd ate everything eatable in Roesville, and the metropoliton papers stated that they were so thankful over their deliverance from a horrible death that all attended church iu a body and listened to the services, but so far as we can learn Parm Wright waa the only Rensselaer excursionist who went to church-
