AFTER ELEVEN YEARS..
Man Who Was S~andbagsed and Lost
His Memory Receivers It at Last.

Claremore, 1. r., Sept. George
Nipper returned to Claremore yester-
day after an absence Of eleven years.
He is an Englishman by nationality
and married a Cherokee squaw. Eleven
wears ago he went to Texas to buy cat
tie and carried with him about 5000.
Nothing was heard from him until last
summer. when M. D. Woodson recog
nized him on the streets in DenVt
wandering about in a dazed and feeb
condition. To Nipper the past was
blank. even his own name was Tor
gotten, He thought his name was VIII
liams. Woodson told him what ms
former name was and his memory be-
gan to return to him..
1t seems he was sandbagged IN tious-
ton. Tex, lost consciousness n was
taken to a Catholic hospital, where he
remained for over nine years before ne
could walk. He could give no account
of himself nor as to where he came
from. After he began to walk ne was
taken to Denver. He is still very feeble
but his mind is getting clearer all the
time. -
Some years ago his wife settled with
the insurance company on the SUPPOSE
jtion that Nipper was dead. On account
iof the doubt she accepted the half race
the policy in settlement. Today
;N,pper was renewing acquaintance
land trying to recall the faces ano
of friends OF eleven years ago.

TOOK OATH WILLINGLY.
Government Printing Office Employees
Readily Subscribed to Formula.

I nCG0tlJ SQOSCFlD0O TO !,
Washington. D.. c., Aug. 31.-An unusual
printing office when a notary public be-.
gan swearing 1000 employees to support
and defend the constitution Of the United,
States against all enemies, both foreign,
and domestic, and bear true faith and al
legiance to the government. Every en-
ploye, from the highest officials, who had
not previously taken the oath, down to-
the charWomen, was required to swear al,
ilegiance.
Yesterday Foreman E1cketts had mes,
sengers present each employee with a blank.
form Of the oath which they were required
to sign. 1t reads: "I do solemnly swear,
l Will support and defend the constitution
Of the United States against all enemies
both foreign and domestic, and bear true
faith and allegiance; that I take this OBJ
legation freely and without any mental
reservation or purpose of evasion, and that
I will we'll and faithfully discharge the
duties Of the office on which I am about to
enter, SO help me Cod
After each employee signed the oath and
returned it to Foreman Ricketts, a notary
appeared in the different divisions and adj
ministered the oath. Thirty or forty per-
sons. men, women and boys, white and
black, We're in each group. They. swore,
in effect, to place the constitution Of the
United States above that Of labor unions.
rms, or course, was the purpose of Presi-
dent Roosevelt in having the oaths admin
istered. Six divisions were sworn today,
and 1t will be seven days before all have
taken the oath. Practically all the en-
ployes cheerfully assented to the obliga-
ton. and there was no objection on the
part of any one.
The bookbinders were cast down, how
ever, when a notary appeared in the bind

looked sour, but there was not a dissent
ing voice when the notary paused after
reading the oath, and there was a loud
chorus of II do"
Assistant Foreman Miller, Who case is
responsible for the decision by the presi-
dent, was sworn alone In the office of
Foreman Ricketts,. Directly behind him
were Feeney and other member OF the
arbitration committee which has been en-
deavoring to secure the discharge OF Mil
Ter. AS the men met in entering and leav-
ing the office there was no sign Of recogni-
ton.
Most Of the employees were decorously
solemn during the proceedings. hut there
were weak attempts at hilarity on the
part of some. There were few comments,
the one heard most frequently being,
