Has No One to
Make His Heir.

Fields is about 65 years OF age and
alone in the world, with no relative on
whom to bestow his wealth.
The race for the 100000 fortune
started yesterday in Birmingham, when
Nichols was notified at the Jefferson
hotel that Fields was searching for hini
with certified check for this sum. The
blind man had just left the hotel
short time before, and was said to be
on his way to Atlanta Nichols imme-
diately took the trail Auantaward
The aged blind mans generous feel
ing dates back to last November when
he visited the little town of LinevilIe
and stopped for several days at the
Lineville hotel, which was operated by
Nichols The afflictiCn of the aged
man and his apparent helplessness
touched the hearts of the Nichols fam
lily, consisting of the hotel man, his
wife and little girl, and every possible
attention and kindness was shown him
The little golden haired girl was par
ticularly fond of the old man. and
romped and played with him almost
constantly. She grew to love him, md
IN ner chlidlsh way. never let an OPP
portunity pass to amuse and make him
happy.
And then when the blind man left the
hotel Nichols crowned his hospitable
treatment of the blind man by refusing
to accept pay for his board, thinking at
that time that he was but a poor old
man, with no money and no friends
The blind man, however, declined to
accept the hotel mans generosity and
forced him to take pay.
To people in the little town the blind
man commented on the kindness of
Nichols and of his own fondness for
the little girl, remarking that Nichols
was one of the finest and best men with
whom he had ever come in contact
The old man left the little town and
the incident passed Nichols Thought
no more of it and heard no more of his
blind friend until he was informed in
Birmingham of the $50, 900 check and Of
the search for him by the blind man.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Nov. 49,
Three persons are known to have been
killed and about twenty injured in a
fire at the St. George hotel, on East
Third street, near Main, early today.
The fire started on the second floor
and, drawn up through the elevator
shaft, it spread SO rapidly that per-
sons on the fifth and sixth floors who
did not receive warning in time were
compelled to jump from the windows.
Those who lost their lives jumped
from the upper floors. The known
dead are: Mrs. Charlotte Harring-
ton, Julius Malone, hotel fireman. Jo-
seph Martin.
Many guests had miraculous es-
capes from death and perhaps score
or more owe their lives to the hero
ism of Oscar Jones, who ran a single
elevator of the hotel, making trips to
the sixth floor with the small car
packed with humanity until the flames
and smoke made further trips impos-
sible.
The fire di comparatively little dam
