Stories Of Railroad Men Based on

Success in Literary Work After Con.
tinued Diseouragsmsnts.

Chicago. April 7.-Cy Warman, poet
and short story writer, died here today
after long illness.
Warman was stricken with paralysis
in his hotel here this winter. The out
look was unfavorable from the first. He
was removed to hospital few weeks
ago where he continued to sink until
the end today.
Cy Warman was known as the poet
of the Rockies" and was pioneer in
the school Of railroad literature. His
stories about railroad men were based
on personal experiences at Salida.
Colo. where in the early sos he worked
in turn as a wiper, fireman and locomo-
tive engineer. After few years of
railroadinE he became i'll and was COM
PEELED to seek lighter work. Later he
turned his attention to writing, and
from the beginning had faith in his
work. His faith was shown In the fol-
lowing bit of humorous verse:
But there's consolation in the
thought that when we're dead,
III we have written something good,
our efforts will be read,
And our friends will plant forget me :
nots and come and sit and sigh
And irrigate our grave with tears
when we go off and die"
Was Native Of illinois.
Cy Warman was a native Of Illinois.
He was born in 1856 near Greenup on
a homestead presented to his father by
the government for gallant service In
the Mexican war.
At time of discouragement Warman
was cheered by the publication In a
New York newspaper of a column OF
his verses. Later be received a column
editorial introduction as the poet OF
the Rockies"
In the meantime the poet had met
Miss Marie Myrtle Jones. 1t was she
who inspired his verse for Sweet Ma.
rie,'' song which afterwards became
a great success. They were married
and spent three years In travelling. The
poet found a ready market for years
accumulation of writings He went
abroad and was commissioned to write
of the railroads Of the continent. While
in Paris he wrote his first successful
book, Tales of An Engineer"
