4. KELLER, TIE ALTON HERO.
Engineer Hurled to Death With Hi,
Hand Firmly Grasping the
Bir Brake Valve.



A man who met death unfllnchinply.
and at his post Of duty, was II. Keller,
the Chicago g. Alton engineer, who
was killed in the wreck near Mexico.
Mo-, Wednesday afternoon. Railroad
men were yesterday discussing with
much pride and glowing praise the
manner In which Keller stayed with
his engine in the face Of certain death.
When the body was removed it was
found that the left hand was clasped
tightly around the airbrake valve,
showing that the dead mans last act
was his effort TO stop the train and
save the lives Of others. In this he
succeeded, but gave up his own.
People read in the newspapers
about great battle, in which some
officer or man has faced death, and de-
clare that be is hero" remarked a
travelling man in the lobby of the
Midland hotel yesterday afternoon,
after reading an account Of the wreck,
shut they pay little attention, as a
rule, to the acts Of bravery in a
wreck. Every time an engineer lays
down his life to save those Of the peo-
pie riding behind him, be is ten times
the hero Of the man who dies on the
battlefield, and who is fighting for the
glory which is sure 10 come 10 him If
he survives. The brave engineer is
not lauded If he happens to save a
hundred lives and escapes with bis
own. The best he gets is a rigid ex-
animation from officials, who, instead
Of speaking words CT praise to him,
make every effort to fix the blame on
him. That man Keller is a dead hero,
who goes to his grave unsung. Peo-
pie are gilt-braid and shoulder-strap
crazy and are apparently blind to
sterling worth.

The concert given by Prof. Tease
Tuesday evening was well attended
and enjoyed by all. The comic num-
bers were we'll rendered and received
loud applause. The chorus, while it
did well, was very uneven1y balanced,
the weakest point being the tenors. as
at no time could they be heard to carry
their part solid through the choruses.
The numbers that deserve special
mention are two. "The Tide of Life'
by Misses Fonk and Biehn showed
good musicianship, also good control.
Duet, "Do You Remember" by Miss
Minnie Heidersdorf and Prof Toase
was good. The Prof. evidently likes
to sing love songs with the ladies as
well as ever. "The Husbands Mis-
take" wasa fine thing and we'll rem
dered. Quartette, "Come, Smiling
Moon" was also we'll rendered, the
Prof. putting the ambition and express
sion into this. Quartette, "Alone in
the Moonlight" was another fine
number and we'll rendered with the ex-
Ception of one or two voices falling a
little from the pitch, due perhaps to
the closeness of the room at that time.
The comic quartette, "Quit That, :"
was good and received long and con-
tinued applause. The last, but not
least, was the duet, "Sam and Tildy's
Courtship," by Miss Heidersdorf and
Prof, Toase. Not exaggerating in the
least, it was by far the best rendered
on the program and to say that Miss
Heidersdorf did well is putting it mild
ly. Give us another Prof. soon.
The Sunday schools are preparing
