out any request or suggestion, gave
his gentlemanly friend all his money
about $50, to keep until he came out
of The water. OF course, when he
came out of b ath his money and his
friend were both gone, and instead of
remaining at Atlantic City two or

THE TRAMP NUISANCE. in
the country continue to complain of
the tramp outrages, which are becom-
ing very serious, around Mlddletown
the tramps are unusually numerous
and are bold and defiant in their
actions.
On Monday evening one of the
tramps was caught between two cars
and had his leg baby mashed, while
across the track not hundred yards
distant fight was going on between
others Of the fraternity, in which one
received a horrible cut across the
forehead with razor, requiring i'm
mediate attention to save his life.
Curses and insults are offered hourly
to female housekeepers while the men
are absent. The town is subjected to
the shame of seeing them parading
the streets, in some instances half
hacked, and continually swearing the
most horrible oaths. A sheep died
from the effects of the heat on Mon
day evening, ,and Immediately a crowd
OF them dressed il ready for cooking,
after which they made hearty meal
off of it. Nor were these men hungry
for it was known that they had been
fed short time before.
