Cart Driver Becsme Suddenly 111 sod Persons Thought He Wss Iatoxi cated Colored Msn Came to His Rescue Mr. George W. Pickett, a member of the street force of the city and driver of one of the carts employed in that department, suffered a stroke of paralysis while about his duties at S o'clock yesterday afternoon and within two hours and a half he died at tbe James Walker Memorial Hospital. The circumstances surrounding the death of the man were somewhat tragic in their nature. He was on Front street with his cart and was seen to suddenly stagger and almost fall. People passing thought the man was under the influence of liquor and offered no assistance. At length a colored man was touched at the piti able condition of the old man and offered to help him.. Coming to bis side he found Mr. Pickett speechless and knowing that he was in the em ploy of the city, took his arm and started with him up Princess street to the Oity Hall. Some one in the meantime had taken the sick man's cart to tbe vacant lot east of, the old Court House where all the city vehicles were being driven in after the day's work. It was while passing the enclosure that his fellow aborers recognized Mr. Pickett and came to his assistance. The colored man, after putting the sufferer in the handa of his friends, disappeared with out giving his name or particulars of finding the man otherwise than re- ated above. Mr. Pickett was taken to the City Hal), a certificate of admission to the hospital was quickly secured from Dr. O. T. Harper, city superintendent of health, and he was hurried in the patrol wagon to the institution in which he died two hours later. He never regained consciousness and was practically dying from the stroke of apoplexy when he reached the hos pital. His entire left side was affected and his power of speech was gone from the first. Deceased was 57 years of age and boarded with twehildren, both small, at 917 South Eighth street. His wife died a year or two ago. His brother, Mr. Robert T. Pickett, is foreman of the street force and took charge of the remains at the hospital last night. The funeral will take place this morn ing at 10 o'clock from Market Street M. EL church, the services being con ducted by Rev. J. W. Potter, the pastor. Mr. Pickett was a hard-working man of good character and his death will be generally regretted.
