The Little Cripple Dead and
Gone to Rest.

Nearly all the people OF Los Angeles
have noticed, with sad interest, the
little cripple who was seen every day on
the street selling the rapers. The pit
able figure of little Demou ct drew
many glance of sympathy from the
busiest passer-by. The most unfeeline
members of society treated him with a
really reverent gentleness. His fellow
newsboys gave way to the helpless little
cripple and let him have the "first
chance" to sell paper.
Sunday afternoon he was playing il
the yard round the residence of hi'
parents on Canter street, when he wa,
seized with a sudden hemorrbage of til,
lungs aud died in few minutes. Yes
terday the body of the poor little fellow
was laid away forever under the sunny
skies of Los Angeles and he Is out o
pain for ever. His CHEEKY little voic,
will never more be heard calling tn,
passerby to purchase a paper for "a
nickel"
