A Peculiar Character His Mode
ot Living.
Aneot the iudddn death from heart
trcuhl- yesiterd.iy of (ieome Hntiarle,
knonn uy men about town as "Wills
perhiK Ue'ri;e," u ahnrt hketch cuti
oornln hln peculiarities nod mode of
living would cot he amiet.
Bluoi coniliiu to Eugene from Al
bany tea yearo ago, the man had uo
regular place of abode and It la not
known that he ever paid anything out
for lodine. He alwaye plept iu ea
loou woodihedi or eimllar placee, and
In i u turner or winter, hot or cold
weal her, the only covering he hud whb
the clothing oa bin back, and It. Is eald
that tbeclntbee were never removed
for mouth at a time. For Home con
siderable time btfore his death Ku
baru slept In the cellar ot the Bureau
saloon. U Is said by many that he
slept on the ground with a stick of
wood fur a pillow, but a friend ot his
who assoointed with hint a good deal
states that be slept on a hard board
anel had a email sack of wool for a pil
lowlittle bitter.
. As to how liuharts derived the
sobriquet "Wblereiing Ueorge," there
are dlflerent stories. Sjitjb eny that
going along the streets he wad often
heard to be wbirpering to himself,
while others assert that the name was
given to him on acoount of hla peculiar
manner of speech. ' '
It was seldom ever that the man
bad mora than a few nlokela or dimes I
on bin person and the money be did
have was given him by saloou-keepera
and others, through charity mora than
anylhliig else, foreweepln r out their
plaoes of tiuiines". He would occa
sionally go to a restaurant for a meal,
as was ihe case at the time of tils
death, but It la said that ho subsisted
principally on free lunches at the fa
loons aud what little provisions be was
able to buy from the stores occa
sionally.
It Is said that the man bad some
money at one time, his fithcr having
owned a sawmill at Albauy years ago.
Bad luck or mlmaungement caused
the leas of the mill and all the proper
ty they had. Two brothers are now
in Lincoln county, one a cripple and
d'pvndlngon the county fer support.
While George was not a very at
tractive oruametil to lh city, hu will
tie mlsxed at bis old haunts. While
be was of no particular bntfU to the
community, he had souin good traits
aud was never known to do any man
barm.
