MEN WEEP AT FUNERAL OF LAD
WHO GAVE LIFE TO SAVE
GIRL HE NEVER
KNEW.
BILLY UGH, GARY, INDIANA, NEWSIE
Throng Blocks Street About
Casket-Offer to Pay for
Monument.

Gary, Ind.-A funeral such as was
never known before was Sunday ac-
corded Billy" Rugh, newsboy, who
gave his life that a girl might live.
Greater homage in pageantry and
grandeur has been paid kings and
statesmen beloved by nations, but this
was a spontaneous tribute from the
hearts of mea and women in honor of
hero.
Fifteen thousand persons singing
Nearer, My God, to Thee" crowded
about his casket on a street corner in
this city Sunday afternoon. By their
very numbers they had blocked mile
long funeral cortege and prevented the
holding of a church service.
Mill Workers Shed Tears.
Strong men of many races, workers
in steel mills that were closed in
Rugh's honor, wept as they formed in
line with their employers and walked
slowly past the coffin of the dead
newsboy. Their. wives and children
were with them and many stretched
forth their hands in an effort to ex-
press their reverence by offering
money for the erection of a monument.
The Rev. J. M. Avann likened the
dead hero to the Christ and quoted
from the Bible:
He saved others, yet himself he
could not save" This was hiss text.
What means this concourse of peo-
pie? Why has the heart of Gary been
touched as never before? Why do
thousands block the streets?" asked
the minister.
Life for Girl He Never Knew.
I'VE are told man is dead. Why,
men die every day. Yet this man had
no office and was almost unknown.
He was only a newsboy. But he made
the great sacrifice. He risked his life,
then gave it that girl whom he never
knew might live. His was the sacri-
flee of one who loved his fellow man
In life his CHEEKY smile and kindly
greeting was worth going a mile tc
see and hear In death he has at
tracted an assemblage to pay him
tribute that would not assemble for q
self-centered man. This was the spirit
of Rugh. The spirit of self-sacrifice
and if you are inspired by it, my words
will not have been in vain."

Only small engagements which give

Chicago.-The position of the bullet
that so nearly cost Theodore Roosevelt
his life October IA, at Milwaukee, at
the hands of John Schrack, Bava-
rian, was fixed with precision Sunday
for the first time. An X-ray photo
graph was taken today and from this
it was learned that the bullet lay on
the outside of the broken RIB. Until
this photograph was taken the physi-
clans had been unable to state posi-
lively whether it was on the outside
or inside the rib.

lies outside the rib, where it can do no

such position that l could reach the

matter of his own preference"
Colonel Roosevelt said he did not
think he would ever have the bullet re-
moved.
