HOLD ON THERE, HOLD ON" HE
SAID
Man Taken From Train on Charge of
Insanity Objects to Being Search
ed in SherifT's ONCE

To be invited off train on which YOU
were travelling from California to West
Virginia by two men who poseed as
Virginia by two men who posed as
tax with you, and to Ee escorted to
the place where the talk was to be
held, the back room of a brick build
ing, and when you had gotten inside
this room and the door was latched be-
hind you, to have these two men start
in starching you and taking from your
clothes, all valuables and keepsakes you
had on you would not be a very pleas
ant experience. This identical expert
ence happened last evening to Robert
Fitzpatrick, man who was Temporal
rily insane, but wi believed himself
therefore, believed in his right to OBJ
ject to this unceremonious searching
process. "Hold on guard, he shouted;
"hold on, but the two guards.
the able sheriff and his deputy, re-
assuring him that he would lose moth
ing, continued searching. From out his
clothes they produced various articles,
papers showing him to be an honarably
discharged soldier, and railroad tick
ct showing him to be bound from
Stockton to West Virginia, a small
flask of brown liquid known as the IL
bation to good fellowship, and which
accounted for Mr.. Fitzpatrick s unset
tied condition of mind At various
parts of his anatomy they found money
and currency. In his left shoe they
found two twenty dollar gold pieces
and in pouch at the back ef his belt
inside some bills of sniall denomina-
tion.
After searching physician was
called in and searched his mental con-
dition to find out if he were danger
ously insane or only harmlessly insane.
He pronounced the latter to be the
case and prescribed small dose
which in medical circles is known to
counteract the after effect of this Ii
baton to good fellowship which Mr..
Fitzpatrick carried with him.
So Mr.. Fitzpatrick was placed in the
padded cell where he settled down to
sleep under the impression that he was
again far away in the Philippines
where he had once seen service, and
was again in the guard house, and in
this case he mused the guards are not
bad fellows.

PIONEER LADY IS
DEAD
MRS. EMILY SPERRY PASSES
AWAY IN PARADISE VALLEY
Was S6 Years Of Age on the 18th of
Last Month.-Born in Connecti-
cut and Came to This County
Thirty Years Ago

At the advanced age Of SO years
Mrs. Emily Sperry, pioneer lady of
Humboldt county of thirty years, pass
ed away at the home of her son w. E.
Sperry, prominent rancher of that
section yesterday morning Mrs. Sperry
has been gradually failing for several
years. Her first decline came with the
death of her husband, which occurred
several years ago, and after which she
seemingly lost interest in the things
of this world. She continued to live
alone at the little home which he had
founded, and was unwillig to take up
residence with her son, who owns a
large ranch near the old home. A short
time after her husband's Is death a fire
came and swept away the home she
loved so well and this fact further adj
ded to her sorrow. After this last mis-
fortune she went to the home of her
son and there was cared for with great
tenderness. She gradually faded, but
possessing wonderful vitality, stood
up against the waste of years.
About four week ago she suffered
sudden stroke of paralysis, which
left her helpless. At the time it was
thought that the end was at hand and
Dr.. Burns was hastily summoned to at
tend her. The remarkable vitality,
however, which had been characteristic
of her whole life, was still with her and
not until yesterday did the spirit which
has for the last four weeks been tot
tering on the brink of eternity finally
depart forever from the body.
What arrangements have been made
for the funeral could not be learned
yesterday. A telephone message was
sent in from Paradise Valley to Under
dertaker Cochran to have casket for
warded, and this was taken out by a
team yesterday.
In the death of Mrs. Sperry another
of the oldtimers of Humboldt county
has crossed the great divide. If years
of residence vest in one the title of
pioneer, and if long life lived in
goodness and in an upright matter en-
title one to the honor and respect of
feEowmen, then Mrs. Emily Sperry was
in truth pioneer and her life lesson
of the heights capable of being attain
ed by the patient heart of woman. On
December Is, 1920, Mrs. Emily Sperry

GRANTED INCREASE
IN WAGES
ALL WESTERN ROADS AGREE TO
INCREASED SCALE
Important Victory for Locomotive En-
gineers-Increase will Affect Be-
tween $4,000 and 10000
Engineers

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-AIter daily
negotiations which have lasted sew
eral weeks, western railroads today
decided to give locomotive engineers
increased wages aggregating between
$5,000,000 and $6,000,000 annually
The increase will affect between 15,
600 and 10000 engineers on all rail
roads west Of Chicago to the Pacific
coast north to the Canadian border
and south to the Gulf OF Mexico. The
negotiations were carried on between
a committee headed by Chief w. s.
Stone, of the brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers and another of general
managers.
The advance will apply to all
classes of engineers. On passenger
locomotives the engineers will re-
ceive five cent increase on hum
dred mile run. On freight engines
the increase will range between eight
and twelve cents per 100 miles. In all
the larger freight yards the switch
engineers will receive additions of
from fifty to seventy five cents day
with the assurance that they snail not
be kept out more than twelve hours
Apparently the spirit TO compromise
governed the negotiations for
the engineers have practically agree
to give up their contention Cor al
eight hour day-that is an eight
hour day with respect u being
credited with a run of 100 miles
have abandoned demands regarding
pay for over time and viii not insist
on their original demand with regard
to sight competency OF engineers
The switch engineers we're rofusea
an allowance OF time ard one-half
for over time in excess of two hours.
This is the first time in railroad
history that the demands of labor
all railroads in a large territory. When
the joint demand was Gri' made. the
railroads refused to trecs With the
engineers as whole, Freferring te
deal with them on eacr road. Chief
stone was firm, howovn in his re-
fusal to confer with TIE railroad !.
except as a whole.

represented by Chief stone and tbs
settlement would indicate TINT new
method Of dealing with railroad labor
delegations had been adopted. There
are many details of tic new wage
schedule still to arrange, and the
negotiations will last until next week.

ever by Franklin McYeirh. was at

and labor leaders from many parts
