Chicago, Sept. 16th, 1893.
Editor Herald :—The sad intelligence
of the death of my friend, brother and
companion, Capt. E. H. Crawley just
received; and I cannot if I would, neither
would I if I could, refrain from express
ing my unspeakable sorrow of the sad
event. He was my friend and I was his
friend. He leaves a large family of
children, everyone of wlom I claim as
my friends, and to whom I am and will
always be a friend and if in need then
most surely indeed too. He was one
of the best of fathers and was to me
one of the most interesting of friends.
He was a model husband to one of the
best of wives.and she shall always receive
as she always has bad my greatest re
spect and friendship. He was a good
citizen, a charitable, one, and. truly may
it be said that the poor people have in
deed lost a friend.
What more can be said of lrrn. A
t rue friend of rich and poor, a kind in
dulgent father, a model thankful lias-
band and my friend.
Had I the ability to do so I would
gather the choicest gems of discription
thoughts and weave them in wreaths of
greatest comfort, and gently, kindly,
and lovingly lay them at the door of
the family heart and thus try if I could
to appease their grief.
May the God of mercy, He who
tempers the winds to the shorn lamb take
crae of those he leaves, and take bis soul
to a Paradise to await their coming.
Hr. W. W. Sharpe Gets the Prize.
The prize of one hundred and fifty
dollars,, offered by the Roadmastere’
Association of America, for the' best es
say on “track work” was recently award
ed by the convention'in Chicago, to our
fellow citizen, Mr. W. W. Sharpe.
When we consider the fact that there
are over a thousand members of the As
sociation and that they are scattered
throughout the length and breadth of
this great country, and that they are all
experienced and intelligent railroad men,
it occurs to us that Mr. Sharpe has
something to be proud of. We con
gratulate him.

-Leading Citizen” in Trouble.
As a true chfonicle of passing events,
it become the Herald’s faithful duty to
announce that Mr. Alexander L. Weiss,
a well known citizen of this city, is in a
peck of trouble to-day. In fact he la in
oblige of the quarantine officers and ia
locked up in a car some where on the
outskirts of the city. Mr. Weiss is a,
newspaper correspondent of “credit and
renown,” and yesterday with commend
able enterprise, and in pursuit of his
legitimate calling, be went down to
Gamp Hatnes for the purpose of writing
up the situation in proper shape. At
tempting to return to Waycroas last
night he was taken in charge by the
watchful officials and is non in durance
vile, or words to that effect He will
not bo allowed to return to the city nntil
the customary ten days has elapsed and
he has been thoroughly disinfected, after
which a large yellow card bearing the
legend “Disinfected” will be appended
to the extremity of his coaVtail and he
will be discharged. The card is inten
ded as a penalty and for the purpose of
deteringother rash newspaper men from
attempting to visit the camp of deten
tion. Our sympathies are with Mr.
Weiss and his afflicted friends and rela
tives.

.Editor Hebald.—You do Mr. Win.
Parker and myself-a very great injustice
in your paper of the 19th, when you say
“They hsve been working in the inter
est of Parker’s Class.” We were the
guest, of the pastor and good people of
Broxton and McRae, in the interest of
Christianity. W. J. Smith.
Referring to the above note from’Mr.
W. J. Smith, the Herald pleads-'not
guilty,” to the charge of intending to do
Mr. Parker and Mr. Smith'“injustice,”
inasmuch as it is well- understood
that “Parker’s Clara” or the “Christian
Laymen Workers,” as the organization is
called throughout this section, is work
ing in the interest of Christianity. We
plead “not guilty”.even to the charge of
making a mistatement. We learn that
Mr. Parker and Mr. Smith did assist in
organizing a class at McRae daring
their visit and we commend them for it.
The Herald will always be found bat
tling for Christianity, and we contend
that Mr. Smith’s statement is a distinction
without a difference. If the gentlemen
were working in the interest of “Parker’s
Class,” they were certainly working in
the interest of christiantty. We think
the issue made hv Mr. Smith is far fitch-
etl and unnecessary, and we still contend
that Mr. Parker and Mr. Smith were
working ^in the intlrest of “Parkers
Class,” and we are quite willing to add
j Christianity.
