ABSOLUTELY PURE

take them to town and sell them. In time
the crabs disappeared, and what few were
caught could not be sold, for. there was no
market for them. With starvation staring
her children in the face, the mother then
asked for charity, and in meager measure
certain charitable organization re-
sponded.
A week ago Mrs Holgerson dressed her
husband, carried him in her arms to the
chair and propped him up with pillows.
He sat near the only window in the shack
all day. Toward evening, during tenn
porary absence of the mother, Hol-
gerson cast his eye down the long
across the tide flats. He saw his 5-year-
old son playing near the edge of the walk.
He was afraid the boy would fall in, and
scarcely had the fear arisen in his mind
than he saw the little one lose his balance
and fall into the water with splash.
He rose to his feet, tottered on his weak
ened legs down the long walk to where the
little fellow was kicking and keeping him
self afloat in the cold water.
/" Help me, papal' cried little voice
from below, as the boy tried again in vain
to reach pile, but his papa, exhausted,
sank TO the walk and, though his heart
was breaking, he could do nothing. See
ing several men in boat some distance
away, he waved his hands to attract their
attention, for he could not shout, the con-
dition of his throat not permitting him to
speak above whisper.
Jump in and pull the kid out yourself,
you d fool" shouted one of the men.
The man then sank on his face in dead
faint. When he came to, his boy had been
rescued after being twenty-five minutes in
the water, and had been resuscitated, and
his wife and one of the men from the boat
were carrying him back to the house.
As the reporter arose to leave he dropped
into Holgerson's emaciated hand four five
dollar gold pieces, a portion of the sum
collected by Jerome Catlin for the Taylor
family, who, proving Migrants, did not re-
ceive the intended aid. Mr.. Catlin had
directed that the money should be turned
over to the Holgerson family provided the
contributors do not ask for the return of
the sums they gave.
The man was too much astonished to
speak. He placed the money on rough
board table which was in reach
and looked at it through tears
of gratitude, while the mothers
eyes were equally eloquent. The little
4-year-old girl walked over to where the
money lay, looked wonderingly at it and
then at the caller.
Later in.the evening policeman called
and left S. more, which had been handed
to Chief Rogers for the family.

but he's stabbed in the breast. He amt
had any doctor, but he says he's awfully
hurt. I guess he's too drunk to know how
badly he is hurt / won't tell you any
thing about it, for never meddle with my
neighbors. Just knock at the door,
In response to knock a spotted mon
grel dog came out and, eying the caller,
snarled viciously. but there was no sound
of human voice.
At police headquarters the officers knew
of the affair, but had made no investiga-
ton.
IF old Walker stabbed him I guess he
deserved it, said a policeman, by way of
an excuse.
At 1870 O'Clock Judge Walker was ar
rested by Officer A. s. Stepler on charge
of drunkenness. After being in Jail few
hours he sobered up and was taken to the
municipal court where he was dismissed
by Judge Rivers.
Though no eyewitness to the affair
could be found, it is said that Walker was
guest of DuVal. and was making merry
and carousing in the shack on liquor pur-
chased with part of $3.50 which Duyal
held in trust for his client, A. Johnson,
who was given that amount by the Rainier
Avenue Electric Railway Company as a
compensation for injuries received in an
accident on the cars. However this is not
known for a certainty, but it is known
that Johnson claims that he never got his
$3.50 which was turned over to DuvaI by
the railway company to be given to him.
Fearing that DuVal intended swindling
him out of the money, Johnson invoked
the aid of Attorneys Ross and Dowd who
placed the matter before Judge Lichten-
berg. The latter signed an order last even
ing on DuVal, citing him to appear in
court at $50 o'clock this morning to face
the allegations and show cause why he
should not be disbarred from practice.
DuVal poses as the son of an ex-gov-
ernor of Florida, and Judge Walker says
he is the son of an ex-governor of Texas.

nue. Car.


nue. Car.
Yesterday morning Delegate Frank NJ.
Muldoon was jolted from the step of
Yesler avenue cable car, and very badly, if
not seriously, injured. He was on his way
from home to the office, travelling by way
of the Yesler avenue cable line. There
were very few passengers, but Mr.. Null
doom was standing on the front platform
of the car, as he frequently did, talking to
somebody, one foot being on the lower
step, it is said. An obstruction of some
kind across the track caused the wheels to
jump and the car to sway. Mr.. Muldoon
was thrown forward and fell on a heap of
stones piled up by the wayside. Another
man was jolted pretty violently, but he
did not fall off. and nobody else COM
planned of any injury.
Several men jumped off and picked the
unfortunate man up and carried him to
the Occidental hotel, where he was laid on
cot. He was in dazed condition. and
was bleeding from the left ear.
The railroad company Immediately sent
their physician, DR.. Z. l.. Smith, to the
hotel, and provided n carriage in which.
propped up by pillows, he was taken TO his
home atSS0 Taylor street. The precaution
was also taken of sending friend in adj
vance TO apprise his wife. DR.. Walsh.
who is his physician, followed Immediate
~ and made an examination. He found
the head confused, one of the bones of the
left hand broken, and the left leg badly
bruised. He would not express any opin.
ion as to internal injuries until further ex-
animation is made. Alderman SNYDER.
Deputies Willis, Krug and Jones and D. A.
Mckenzie happened TO be near the scene,
and all went to his assistance.
