MAN’S MEMORY RESTORED ON SEEING NAME IN PAPER Tulsa, Okla.—After being known 11 years as “the man without a name,” Patrick P, Taggart finds himself again in possession of his memory. He was found on the outskirts of Tulsa, lying near a railroad track. He had been slugged, robbed anil left wounded. He was taken to the Y. M. C. A., where he lived as “the man without a name” until he saw the word "Taggart” in a newspaper headline. “That's my name!" he excitedly told C. E. Bouchner. general secre tary of the Y. M. C. A. Previously, a Memorial day parade caused the strange man to recall that he was with the colors in 1898. The surname and the knowledge of military service opened the way to an investigation which revealed the man was Patrick F. Taggart, 49, an honorably discharged veteran of the Spanish-American war. < “A delicate brain operation, paid for by A. L. Funk, an oil man, brought back more of Taggart’s memory and relieved the paralysis which afflicted him. Then Tag gart remembered that his wife and child died of influenza in Calilornia and that he was going back to his native Boston when he became lost in Tulsa. Friends have obtained a soldier's pension for the man who has experienced so much misfor tune. "I’ve got money now, and I am on top of the world,” Taggart says.

Watch For Gardner Speech Over State Max Gardner. whO will be the next governor of North Carolina if the stars keep shining until an elec tion can be held, will make his first , public proclamations of his cam paign at Boone Monday and, very naturally, he will not only be heard eagerly by the folks of the moun tain territory, but the state will await with tense interest his pri mary deliverances in this campaign: To a degree that few. if any man in the history of the commonwealth has possessed. Mr. Gardner enjovs the esteem and confidence of those of his party as well as the respect \ and admiration of the citizens of North Carolina generally, whatever their political affiliations may be. It can reasonably be expected, there fore. that his remarks will weight heavily in influence and the path that he pioneers for himself will become that over which multiplied thousands of his feltow-Democrats will feel more safety in treading once he has cut the way. Mr. Gardner's main business will be. we anticipate, to solidify senti ment for the state ticket and to guard with jealous care the par ty’s destiny as it concerns itself pri-| marily with the government of this commonwealth.

Edward Bar ker. who is seeking the Republican nomination for representative in Wyandotte county, is conducting a campaign unique in this state. In fact he has made no eampayn. His only activity has been to file for the office and distribute a few carci* showing he was a candidate: ;i He has not asked a solitary per son to vote for him and will not. He is trying a tlwcry he has held , for years, that the wholesale use of ' results; that a man who will sell I money cuts little figure in election j to on-» candidate will sell out to his j opponent; also that when a man I offers himself as a candidate the , people should not be log-rolled and , cajoled into voting for him: that he should give them perfect freedom in their choice and accept their1 decision. If he wins, he says, he will do the j best he can in the legislature; if he i loses, the smoke will go up the chim ney just the same. Barker comes from one of the oldest and wealth iest families in Wyandotte county.
