HERO HEDGER AGAIN.

The story of Andrew J. Hedger, the
kansas hero who had just been recog-
n1zed by the Carnegie hero commission,
and to whom reference was recently
made in these columns, has created con-
siderable comment in the east. 1t ap-
pears that the Carnegie commission
pronounced Mr.. Hedger's act the mos.
extraordinary act of heroism ever
brought to its notice. The Washing
ton Post makes these sensible remarks
on the subject:
THE Carnegie hero fund commission
has awarded q gold medal and $500 in
cash to Andrew ]. Hedger. of Finney
county, Kansas, for extraordinary hero
ISM Hodger is superintendent of
schools. He has an invalid wife and
tour children. He heard one day that
two men had been buried alive by the
caVe-1n of we'll He ran two miles to
the spot, and found about 200 agitated
persons there, not one of them willing
to take any risk in saving the lives of
the entombed diggers. Hedger scrib-
pied a note to his wife, telling her how
to collect his life insurance and what
to do with his property, handed it to a
bystander. and went down into the
we'll to depth of seventy-two feet. 1t
seemed as though he was going living
into his grave.
For two hours Hedger shoveled dirt
Ike a mailman. He then unearthed one
of the men, who was still alive. Tying
the man to a rope, Hedger sent him to
the surface and went on with his dig
gfng. He unearthed the other man, tied
him to a rope and sent him up. This
man was dead. 1t was not Hedger's
fault. The rope was lowered, and
Hedger tied himself to it and was
drawn up. more dead than alive.
''The Carnegie commission does we'll
when it considers this the most extra
ordinary act of heroism ever brought
to its notice. 1t does we'll, of course
when 1t gives Hedger a gold medal and
a comfortable lot of money. But who
is honored? Is Hedger, or the Carnegie
commission? Is Hedger better man,
or more honored man, because he has
the right to exhibit a gold disk with
his name engraved upon it? The stuff
that made Hedger a hero was in him
when there was no Carnegie hero COM
not send a man living into a grave, or
ing sea, in the forlorn hope of rescuing
human life. There is something para
doxical in the idea that a man like An
drew Carnegie can honor a man like
Andrew Hedger by giving him a gold
medal and little or much money. The
man who risks his life for others wins
honor in another place. There is no
need of Carnegie medals to perpetuate
the fame of real hero, or to secure
that he shall not be forgotten when
the recording angel makes UP his rec
ord. The Carnegie hero commission
will eventually be known through the
heroes it has discovered-the heroes
will never be known by the medals"
