 And get his nerves in kinks, Nor i'll his skin with Hines and Kin And other cooling drinlS.- Consider NIT. Meshach,
 Who felt the furnace, too; He let 1t siZz, nor queried, 'Ia
 It hot enough for youg" He didn't mop his forehead
 And hunt a shady spot, Nor did he say, Gee, what a dzyt
 Believe me. it's some hotI" Consider. too. Abed-nego.
 Who shared his comradeE plight He didn't shake his coat and make
 Himself a holy sight: He didn't wear suspenders Without a coat and vest; Nor did he scowl and snort and h0W4 And make himself a pest. Consider. friends. this trio
 How little fuss they made, They didn't curse when 1t va gWurDa
 Than ninety in the shade. They moved about serenely Within the furnace bright, And soon forgot that it was hot, With mo relief in sight" Bert Lesion TzyloG

but compactly built; gives an impress sion of immaculate cleanliness, clean shaven, thin face, and iron gray hair on a finely moulded head, which is seldom covered even out of doors. In demeanor he is always the finished gentleman; always kindly in voice and manner; and is always the present, palpabe, vibrant force in everything in which he is concerned. In conver- sation he is apt to presume too much upon the discernment of his hearers, but upon sensing ones bewilderment he invariably clears the situation with a simple illustration. 1 doubt if Lincoln, or even Franklin, was more adept in this particular art Mr. Ford is verye great man; perhaps tn greatest of all in nualities of mind and heart of which the world as yet knows ittle."

Ana, he landed at the townsite of the present City of Seward, Aug. 28, 1903 and began the stupendous task of ere ating in wilderness, a home for his large party. A splendid example, of the executive ability and enormous driving power of the man illustrated in his signal act of successfully feed ing his entire party one hour from the time of landing from the small boats.
 Associated at this time with the pioneer were Charles Dickinson, son of George w. Dickinson, President of the Alaska Central R. R. and former president of the Seattle Electric Rail way, A. w. Swanitz, chief engineer of the Alaska Central R. R., John Bal laine, townsite owner and city pIanner G. w. Hinckley, father-in-law of MT. Coleman, who was superintendent of later construction for the pioneer, F. H. Crosby, a nephew associated with his uncle and who is now president of the Northwestern Long Distance Tes- ephone Co. of San Francisco.
 While in Seward, Mr. Coleman was the organizer and President of the Alaska Central Company, running the commissary for the railroad, feeding daily 1000 men, maintaining at the same time number of camps along the right of way. The building hous- ing the company was later enlarged and made into a hotel being known as the Coleman House, (now Hotel Sex ton.) Always active and interested in the development of the town he was so instrumental in founding it, that it was altogether fitting that this in- trepld pioneer be elected as Stewards first mayor and justice of the peace. Besides his other accomplishments in the Northwest, Mr. Coleman was also known as trapper and hunter of dis tinction.
 MT. Coleman was born in Wiscon- sin, Sept. 5, 1861, where he spent his younger days. Feeling always the call of the wilderness, he spent years of his early manhood in the forests of Wisconsin and the undeveloped North west He was instrumental in opening up virgin timber lands in his native state and in Montana. In 1909, being still interested in mining, he took over and developed the "Sunnyside" property in Arizona, near his late home, where for four years he was owner and operator of this mine. Af- ter 1913 he managed a successful brokerage business in Prescott.
 These are but a few of the mater ial achievements of MT. Coleman. He won another distinction that is regard ed as worthy of far greater notice. Altho afflicted with a lingering and extremely painful illness, he maintain ed to the end a composure and genial ity that marked him among his fel- lowmen. His good cheer was never failing and earned the respect of all who knew him.
 MT. Coleman is survived by a wife and two children, Mary Alice, and Walker H., all of whom are living in Arizona.
