HONEST MEN NOT ALL DEAD
Recent Incident Shows There Are Two
Left, and They Live In Sac.
ramento, Cal.

There are at least two thoroughly
honest people in Sacramento, says
the Union of that city, and that is
why Miss Maud Williamson got back
a fve-dollar goldpiece that was in
other hands for more than a week.
The money was returned to her by
blind peanut vender who has a
stand at Twenty-eighth and M
streets.
Miss Williamson bought a bag Of
peanuts from the man and acciden-
tally gave him a fve-dollar gold
piece instead of a nickel. She missed
the coin not long afterward, but it
did not occur to her that she had
paid it out accidentally until some
one suggested that possibility sew
eral days later.
She went back to the vender's
stand and asked him if he had acci-
dentally taken in a five-dollar gold
piece instead of nickel. He put
his hand into his coat pocket and
took out a scrap of paper in which
the missing gold coin was wrapped.
He explained to Miss Williamson
that one Of his customers had been
honest enough to return it to him
when he gave it out as five cents in
change. He had put it away safely,
for he expected that sooner or later
it would be called for.-Ysuth's
Companion.

PAUL WELLS CRIPPLE
FOR LIFE APPARENTLY
Hit by Fire Truck; Paralyzed
on One Side and Cannot
Speak.

Paul Wells. aged ~. who was
knocked down by fire truck on
July IA. has a chance 10 live, but he
probably will be cripple for life.
This was the word that came from
the Okla homa hospital yesterday.
Paul is Il great favorite with the
doctors and nurses at the hospital.
His cheerful disposition is admired
by all.
For days after the accident he was
unconscious. DIR. Fred 8. Clinton
cared for him as tho he were his own
son. Finally the boys eyes opened
and he began to understand what was
going on.
His skull was fractured on both
sides. This caused a total paralysis
of the left side OF his body and de-
prived him of his speech He has not
spoken word since the accident. He
can hear as well as ever, tho.
His mother visits him regularly.
She believes he will ultimately re-
cover the use OF his limbs and vocal
cords.
He will have to remain in the hos
pital long time yet.

m.slt OF the fullblood Cherokees. is,
according to recent reports, forsaking
the error of his ways. Recently he
has been giving good advice to his
followers, advising them to become
agriculturists, and at n recent dinner
in honor of his birthday, attended by
several hundred of his countrymen,
there was not even drop of fire
water in evidence, the strongest drink
being black coffee Whether CHIEF
Redbird will allow his adherents to
vote in the next election remains to
be seen. Hitherto, according to the
testimony of number of citizens, he
has exerted himself to prevent the
fullbloods from exercising the right
of franchise.
