AN ACT OF
HERoISM.

An act of undoubted heroi SIN oc-
CURED at the time of the wreck ON
the Rio Grande Wetsern. near West
which up to this time has never
reached the ears of the general pub
lie, but which act has been treasured
in the minds of the railway men. to
such an extent that they, in the let
ter which follows. give due publicity
and acknowledgement to fellow rail
way employe and give also more
substantial acknowledgment of the
act in tho present to T. F. Coursey.
brakeman on the train that was
wrecked, of purse of money.
In that accident Fireman G. G.
Beedle was killed and EnigneeI A. j.
Cummings was badly injured. his leg
having been amputated afterward. at
st. Mary's hospital in this city.
After the accident it was found
that Fireman Beedle. who died short
ly after being taken from under the
engin, was laying in position under
the wrecked engine, where he would
be drowned by the water escaping
from the tank and which was forming
pool about his head and threatened
to drown him. The engine was
standing in such a position that it
threatened every minute to topple
over. which had it done so would
have pinoned anyone and probably
killed them. who would have gone
under to afford relief. Notwith-
standing this threatening death Brake
man Cour ;ey boldly crawled beneath
the engine and held up the head of
Fireman Beedl,, dipping away water
which was gathering in large pool
about him and by his heroic conduct
prolonging the life of the man. at
least until he was unpinioned from
his awful position
To those who saw the deed of
Brakeman Coursey. they say it was an
act of great courage and the men EN-
ployed on the road take this oppor-
tion of his manly and heroic quail
ties.

We the engineers and firemeu en-

heartfelt thanks for the manly spirit
and heroic efforts shown by you at
the wreck which occurred near West
cember 2nd. 1902 when Fireman G.

Your constant and almost superhu,
man efforts to relieve their SUFFERING
under the most perilous circumstances
stamps you as man among men in
its truest and fullest sense of the
word and will always be remembered
by us as an act, which. while we
would like to. yet it is one that we
will never be able to fully repay. But
as a small mark of the confidence and
esteem which we hold for you we ask
YOU to please accept the purse accom-

freely as it was given, and may God
in his infinite wisdom so guide your
footsteps that your life may be one of
sunshine. blessed with the thought
that you have done your duty.

SMElTER
BUILDINGS.

There will still be several weeks to
wait yet probably before the work
will begin on the erection of the
smelter buildings in this city. for
which all the people have looked for
ward to so anxiously. 1t . one OF
those things that no one can help. and
yet which delays the Advancement that
everyone was hoping would come at
once. Through the change in the
general superintendency of the Rio
Grande railway there has come up
some complications with regard to
building the sidetrack to the smelter
site, from the main line of the rail
road. which had been practically set
tied before. through an understanding
with Superintendent Herbert.
The matter of rates was virtually
anulled in the change. but those in
terested in the smelter project for this
city believe they can obtain the con
tracts for that later. and the only
thing now interfering with immedi
ate work is the matter of the side
track.
Henry V. Edwards. who arrived in
the city several days ago. to have
general SUPERVISION of the construc-
tion of the smelter. in conversation
with n Sentinel reporter last night
said regarding the situation
"We are now waiting for the Rio
do 10, h,,, y ln O. Int al
from their main line to the SIN ,lter
site. and as soon as that matter has
been definitely decided the work will
begin with the erection of the build
ings. Some of the material has al
ready arrived. two cars of structural
steel being now in the yards i'll this
city, while several cars were ordered
held in Pueblo yesterday until the
matter was settled. OF course we do
not know how long it will take to ar
range affairs, but hope that work will
begin very shortly
With regard to the rates Mr.. Ed
wards said 1.-The change i'll the man
agement of the Rio Grande has doubt
lesS Ildu sOhttlllHS " uO NltIl bie
matter of rates, but that will be fixed
up in short time. we hope
Mr. Edwards is very pleasant
gentleman to meet and one who thor
oughly understands the construction
of smelter plants. having been in
charge of the construction of some OF
the largest plants of the kind in the
country.
The people of this city and the en-
tire valley hope that the matter OF
rates as we'll as the sidetrack may be
speedily adjusted. and that no further
delay will interfere with the work on
the smelter. not alone because OF the
desire to see the work begun, but that
the company may begin to realize
something from their investment. and
naturally that the city may also feel
the good that is bound to come this
way from such an institution.
Everything else has been completed
for immediate action. and the tele-
graph wires are being used 10 quite
an extent in the effort to get the mat
ter of the sidetrack adjusted
