DEATH OF MRS. MINNIE DAWSON.
Most Esiimsble Lady Expired at Her
Home In This City Yesterday After
Brief illness.

The many friends Of Mrs. Min
ME Dawson, wife of Mr.. John ID.
Dawson, were inexpressably
grieved yesterday morning 10 learn
of her dangerous illness at her
home in this city, and later of her
death, after a brief illness, at 1880
o. clock. She was i'll some time
ago, but had recovered from the at
tack, and friends were not prepared
for the sudden ending of her life
through the recurrence OF her
illness.
Mrs. Dawson was a native OF IL
linois and came to Bryan in her
girlhood with her parents, who
died several years ago. She was
80 years old, a member of the
Methodist church and a lady of
noble, lovable christian character.
She was esteemed by all the peo-
pie of Bryan for her true womanly
worth, and all hearts.are filled with
sorrow and with sympathy for the
bereaved family.
The funeral will be held this at

hoard. is one of the latest efforts OF
the north to Guido the east.

Press dispatches in the Eagle
yesterday morning gave Bryan
readers the first news OF another
horrible railroad wreck, this time
in Kansas, through the fault OF an
operator who had orders for a
train and let it go by. The Eagle
understands that a bill may be in
troduced in the next Legislature OF
this state providing for the exami-
nation of telegraph operators as to
their qualifications and fitness TOR
their important duties. The Ea-
ole is not familiar enough with the
situation to say how this would
work. but it looks like it would
be a protection to the public, the
railroads and the operators them
selves. While operators are IN no
sense to blame for all the wrecks,
they have been charged with
enough of them to demand gen.
eral high standard of efficiency.
Another thing, good operators
should be appreciated more and
probably paid more than they are.
We are accustomed to give all the
glory of shooting us safely around
over the country by day and by
night to the train dispatcher and
the engineer, while as matter OF
fact our lives are also in the hands
of the unknown operator who en-
dures the monotony of the wayside
station while faithfully performing
his task.
