Tired OF .hoboings after nsore than
six months OF the life. Ralph Andrews

day and doubtless will be greeted with
the fatted calf OF tradition.
According to the story Andrews told
Mr.. Gressier who is friend of long
standing with the family, he had a
quarrel with his father early in the
summer months Instead of staying at
home and patching it up he decided
that the world was large and the por-
ton of II he had seen exceedingly
small He therefore ran away from
home, coming west. During the Seat
tie exposition he was in the north
west. generally managing to live well
although he was one of a band of
hoboes. Late Inc the summer, how
ever. he met his downfall when he
was robbed of every cent he had BY
another "bo' whom he had been feed
ing for several days.
For a time things went hard with
him but he succeeded in beating his
way down the coast to Southern Cali
foruia. where he met the man who
robbed him. Il was SI4.35 which had
been taken from him. but after get
ting through with his whilom friend
he told him to keep his money. he

Upon arriving in Bisbee the young
fellow at once commenced searching
for Nr. GressIer. finally locating him

was the replv which seemed to lift a
heavy weight from the young man s
shoulders.
Explanations followed and it sool

insist that il is tact, beyond the pos
siblity Of doubt, that John Wilkes
Booth was not killed in 1865 after he
assassinated President Lincoln. and
that he lived to marry Mrs. Howard
mother in Tennessee on February "a
1872. and to commit suicide In Enid

JOHN w. DANIEL WITH A

Many distinguished writers have
married stories dealing with charac-
tors native OF this country south of
the Mason and Dixon line by crude.
unnatural efforts to concoct South
ern dialect Some who should have
known better have perpetrated the
meet outrageous freaks in the way OF
negro dialect. and still others not to
be called ignorant have attempted to
convey the idea that the most polish
ed Southern gentleman speaks in the
language of an eloquent coachman.

err feel like breaking up the furniture
