The Monthly Circular issued by the
Journeymen Stone Cutters association of
North America. ard published at Mime
spolis, devotes column to 10 Evans.
formerly of Rock Island and afterward of
Minneapolis, accompanying the same by
cut of the subject. While 10 is per-
haps not as good looking as his distin-
guished brother. AID Charles Evans, of
the Fifth ward, he nevertheless possesses
a pleasant, manly countenance, in fact,
is altogether a fine looking fellow. The
Monthly Circular fails to speak of Evans
as the author of How big is Bobby Ben
nett Pa" one of the most applicable and
enjoyable parodies he ever wrote, but it
| gives him this send off in the sentiment
of which every one in Rock island who
knows 10 will heartily acquiesce.
The subject of the following sketch,
whose GENIAL countensnce adorns this
| page, was born in Welshpool, Montgom-
eryshire, North Wales, in the year 1856,
and he csme to America in 1869.
He served his apprenticeship at Rock
Island Arsenal. where he developed those
traits of character which have since made
him so well and favorably known among
the members of our craft. A deep thinker
and ready, forcible speaker, he rapidly
forged to the front, IS an eloquent advo-
cate of the principles of unionism and
the welfare of the toiling masses Poems
and labor essays run fluently from his
pen, and the readers of the Circular and
the lstor press in past years have been
charmed alike by his poetry and prose.
1t is an open secret that Brother Evans
contemplates the collection of his songs
and poems into book form for distribu>
ton amongst the fraternity. Such poems
as The Bumpers HE'LL" Don't Scab
Yourself my Boy" The Jib my Father
Wore" should always be preserved
among the ANIMALS of our trade.
As dipOmstist. Bro. Evans is at bis
best Minneapolis branch will not soon
forget him and Harry Jones fer enlisting
the sympathies of the granite cutters AT
St. Cloud at the tine Matt Breen took
his seats from st. Paul to the life insur.
ance building in Minneapolis in 1889.
Inside of one week after starting them
Messrs Evans and Jones had Matt Breen
cornered and forced him to take all the
scabs back to st. Paul and pay fine OF
$3.50 for bringing his men there.
His speech TO the men in st. Paul wher
they were out on strike in so will be
long remembered by them. 1t was for
chile, manly and instructive. He ha:
held many positions of trust and honor
in our ranks, has always acquitted him
self with profit to the organization a nc
credit to himself.
He is general favorite wherever h,
goes. and we are glad of this opportunit,
of presenting to his fellow craftsmen +,

faint light shows beyond the depth OF tho
