CRIPPLED WITH SIX BULLETS

Waterloo, March 29.-His brother ia

bullets and their combined wealth of

Cling, struggling throng that defied the
Frost King and penetrated Alaska's
colorado, now crippled, almost blind,
vagrant creature upon the earth, ar
rived in Waterloo and sought assist
ance from the overseer of the poor
If the story told by Ole, who is
native Of Sweden, be true, he has had
wonderful experience, buffeted by the
gold-hungry hordes, bullied by those
stronger physically and mentally than
he, and filled with holes by bullets like
a sieve.
In 1896 Ole and his brother went to
Nome, Alaska near where they set out
prospecting. Greedily they gathered
in the shining sands from White Horse
river. These were sifted and "panned"
and the dross was separated from the
gold When they had accumulated
$4,000, they placed the treasure in
sacks and started back for the United
States. When $50 miles from Nome,
still skirting the shaggy shores of the
White Horse river they were fired up
on from ambush by French Canadians.
Ole was struck with six bullets. One
tore it's way thru the bridge of his
nose and gouged out the right eye. An
other crashed thru his shoulder. An
other shattered the bone of his left leg.
Still another penetrated the thigh
Others left wounds which permanently
famed him. The brother received two
bullets in the head and fell dead. Ole
survived and when consciousness re-
turned he realized that their treasure
had vanished.
As the stranger told this story he
shuddered as he recalled the bloody
scene and tears trickled down the vast
ed cheeks.
''In the past six months I have been
working in a restaurant in Omaha for
my board" he continued in his broken
speech. Now I have nothing. my
sight is nearly gone, my legs are Grip
pied so I can hardly work, my rela-
tives are all over the water, back in
dear old Sweden"
Ole may be a great CRATER, but he
doesn't loko it. nor does his story seem
to be full of flaws
