CAME TO RESCUE OF FRIEND.
Duluth Newsboy Proved Possession Of
Sense of Gratitude.

Sam Hughitt, who, like Topsy, says
he has no parents, but lives with his
uncle out al the West end, saved q
penniless stranger from the police sta
ton the othei night by paying for his
supper at one of the, Bowery restau.
rants, says the Duluth News-Tribune.
Some people say a newsboy has no
sense OF gratitude to a benefactor.
Sam proves an exception to this, II not
a denial ..
He says the man he hefriended IL
a stranger to him. but that he bought
him out" once when he was STUCK"
with about 35 cents worth of papers.
Sam remembered that, and when the
stranger couldn't settle his bill at the
restaurant, he came forward with
three Of his hard-earned nickels and
paid for the supper.
- 1t made no difference to Sam that
Tue man was very much intoxicated
"He had 1t chalked up agin me-" he
explained. AS an after thought, he
added: "Oh, that's nothin' anyway
