FINDS HE HAS LIVE FATHER.
Kansan VIII Meet Parent He Has Not
Seen for 40 Years.

Colby, Kan, Sept. 18.=Ever since
w. H. Craig was mere child he has
been taught that his father was dead.
but last winter he learned that he had
a live and active parent in the form
of James S. Craig, who has been lieu
tenant governor once and twice COVER
nor of the state of Virginia and at one
time a judge of that state. Last winter
Park Callison, living near Togo, and a
neighbor of Mr.. Craig, was visiting in
Virginia and learned of the existence
of James S. Craig and his relation to
w. H. Craig. On his return to era
ham county he informed the son of
what he had learned about the father
and the story was verified by a CORE
spondence between the father and son.
When w. H. Craig was a three
months-old babe his mother and faith
err parted and since that time he has
been led to believe that his father was
dead. The mother came to Iowa and
in 1904 the son came west to Graham
county to engage in farming near
Togo. About the middle of this month
he will meet his father. who is well
to do, in Des Moines and they will con-
tinue westward in. search of a good

BALE HOME AGAIN
Waggener welcomed by 1900 Children
on His Return.

Atchison, Kan, Sept 1S.-Five thou
sand people, including l. 500 children IN
parade order, welcomed B. r. Wag-
gener at the union station here Satur-
day afternoon, when he returned from
Rochester, Mimi. where he had been
eight weeks following two surgical OPP
erations. 1t was a remarkable ovation,
considering that Mr.. Waggener is a
private citizen, but his attitude as a
friend of children and as citizen has
endeared him to the people, regardless
OF party utilization AS Mr.. Waggener
stepped from his private car on arrlV-
ing here 1000 cheers broke forth, and
after he had taken a seat in a large
touring car driven by his son, w. F.
Waggener, the fifteen hundred children,
who were lined along the street lead
ing from the depot, pelted him with
flowers and sang songs composed for
the occasion
Then a parade, headed by a brass
band followed Mr.. Waggener through
the main street of the city, the chill
dren marching four abreast, and
hundred boys riding on ponies.
Mr.. Waggener made no attempt TO
make a speech, probably because he
was too deeply affected to be able TO
give utterance to the appreciation he
felt. Several times big tears rolled down
his cheeks, but they were brushed
away by the flowers hurled at him. All
he was able to say he said to friend
at his side:
This is the greatest event of my
life he whispered to the friend. For
the first time in my life am confused
1 don't know what to say or what to
do" And then he nearly broke down.
as an old colored man edged his way
through the crowd, reached up and
shook his hand
During his illness Mr.. Waggener lost
Is pounds in weight, but his eyes nave
lost none of their lustre, and the color
in his face foretells a complete restor-
alton to good health within a short
time. However, he will return to Roch-
ester after several months for further
treatment. He intends to be in his
office again Monday morning. His
physicians have advised him to rest as
much as possible and avoid excite
ment.
And they have forbidden him to make
a balloon ascension on the day of his
big picnic September 27.
