Last week there was an accident on the
Texas & Pacific east of Ell Paso in which
Engineer Bible, Fireman Jones and Brake
man Mansfield were killed. The accident
was an unavoidable one, caused by the
road bed being destroyed by a hail storm
a few moments previously. The Texas &
Pacific officials Immediately telegraphed
to have the bodies taken care of and gwen
a respectable burial. The relatives of the
engineer and fireman took charge Of their
bodies. The brakeman was an English
man and bad no relatives in this country,
so bis remains we're turned over to Emer-
son 4 Berrian, the undertakers, for burial.
At the funeral a large number of the rail-
road boys followed the remains Of their
dead friend to their last resting place. On
arriving at the cemetery tie boys were
greatly SURPRISED to find the grave dug 10
the potter's zelda pauper's grave. An
investigation showed that in this manner
Messrs. Emerson & Berrien would make
two profits and be at no expense, the rail-
road company would be charged for a lot,
and the city charged for b%urying a pauper,
Emerson & Berrian having the contract for
burying the pauper dead, When the
BOYS understood this they read the riot act
TO Emerson, who was in charge, in a way
that would make a decent mans ears tin
gle. Emerson took it very quietly-he is
used to being told that be is a liar and a
thief-and promised to come down the next
day ane put the body in a 6ne lot. This
the boys would not listen to hut made him
thea and there secure a respectable lot.
aud bury the dead fireman therein. The
6rm Of Emerson & Berrian is eminenily
~disreputable and this is but one Of the
dishonest acts they have been caught in.
