PRAISE FOR Mr.. BEACON.

The Fl Reno American pays the fol
lowing editorial tribute to r. ~
Beacon
The personal tha.acser OF Thomas
Fl. Beacon. general manager Of the
Rock Island lines here. stands out in
exemplary contrast to what many mar
row-minded people would have one
think OF railway officials in general.
The American tells Of him as he really
II when weighed down By the horrors
Of a terrible catastrophe. The Ameri-
can refers to the recent accident al
Agawam, where valuable rolling stock
was stacked in heap and several
lives we're snuffed out
Instead OF giving the newspaper rep
resentatiye a cool reception. curt and
unsatisfactory answers. there was a
warm hand-clasp and welcome invi-
tation to be seated"
Railroad managers are busy men and
have great business demands awaiting
them at every turn. and most people
fancy it next to impossible for one to
disclose news OF an accident This is
untrue, especially SO, as regards Mr..
Beacon. for he gave the details as
quickly and freely as they were OBJ
tainable. for he knew the public mind
was unrestful and the heartstrings OF
few we're drawn taut because their
loved ones had been hurled into eter-
nifty amid that inteTlacement Of wood
and steel. which was entangled in a
gigantic heap. Mr.. Beacon knew all
these things and bis sympathies were
with those who we're suffering, yet
his exec ltive ability was always III
evidence for the corporation he is
serving.
Briefly stating II, Mr.. Beacon is a
big man. who does zig things, and yet
he is remotely different from some,
mainly. because he is very sympathetic
and his big heart sends the red mists
coursing through his veins in tender
ness for those under his direction who
sustain injury
