The work train of the Northern Pacific eastward bound train ran into a drove of sheep one mile west of here on Thursda {sp} afternoon last, killing forty one outright and seriously injuring eleven more. The sheep belonged to Mr. P. Lampson, a young and enterprising farmer south of the village and it is hoped that the company will re-imburse him for his sad loss.
