TRIBUTE TO DIR. MURRAY.

DR.. r. D. Murray, who died at
laredo Sunday from injuries
seceived in RUNAWAY accident,
besides being physician and yell
8ow fever expert of worldwide re-
aown, was we'll known personally
u the older citizens of Brownsville,
Is he had charge of the yellow fever
3pidemic here in 1882 Before the
3Tead summons came, while the
spark of life still fingered and hope
animated the breasts of the people,
sne who expressed the feelings of
I'll others wrote the following ten
Ibr tribute to the great and good
1octor. for the Laredo Times:
This noble man came to this
plague stricken town when all was
chaos and confusion. He came in
she form of a man but verify an
angel of mercy, who not only
shocked at our doors but walked
sight in. Worn out with watching,
exhausted from lack of sleep, on
zGd on went this tireless spirit,
8ealing the sick, comforting the
gretched, strewing flowers of wit
md merry stories on all, easing
many weary soul of its burden Of
sorrow. And now he who has so
hyishly given, is stricken and we
who have received so much can
snly idly sit by and pity, for he
alone must bear his paint has
been so willed. There are none but
Who would gladly share it with
Ism. In truth, one whom he has
lovingly cared for, has said: Il
would give my life tonight could
Ks be spared" And we need not
marvel at the expression, for this
Esar physician has unselishly all
BOT given his life to minister to the
sek and dying ofonr city.
"Your friend has been seriously
Biured," was spoken in quick &C
ssnts to a sick girl. my friend!-oh
ny friend" she exclaimed. No need
10 explain, she knew. And Friend"
e echoed in the hearts of most
ayeryone in Laredo today. Those
% high degree and those of lowly
saste, for when laid low by the
land of illness each was human
saul to be saved and his tender
rare was freely bestowed on all
ssike. All, friend" indeed to all
mankind. But if love is any com,
1ensation for the blessings he has
scattered, then he is, indeed, be-
Eond all dreams of avarice.
This bright light cannot go ont,
5bT the care and thoughts and pray
DIS Of those who love him will sur
Dund him as halo and bring him
Rom the depths into which he has
been, seemingly, so cruelty plung-
81, to a height and a life that will
SILL further radiate the beams of
hope, love and charity. TO US who
i6ve him His loving thoughts and
ssniles float back like 'Vesper
sSimes," and we are cheered and
-bOk up and hope.

The News of Birmingham

Birmingham, Feb. 7.-(SpeciaD-G William Booth, the founder of the Saliva fton Army, arrived in Birmingham this morning and is stopping at the Hillman. A large number of officers in the army rom various parts of the country are here and members of the army from around the South are arriving on every train. There were no services today. Gen. eral Booth will tomorrow participate in three meetings to be held at the Bijou Theatre. The General was in good health when seen today. As to the proposition to organize a Salvation Army among col ored people in the South, General Booth said that he had not made up his mind fully on that question. He said. concern ing the negro:
 q believe that the negro should be made intelligent; that he should be made to see that his own interests lie in the di- rection of morality. Let the servant be @ good servant, honest and sober, and let every other class of laborers among them be likewise, and let them also realize that the whites and blacks are separate races. Then keep down suspicion. If the negro suspects the white man, there is trouble, and if the white man suspects the negro. there is also trouble. It is when they understand each other that they get along the best"
