TEDIOUS TRAMPJNG.
A Man and His wife walk From
Davenport TO Council Blurs.

There appeared at police headquarters
here Saturday a man and woman who
had, indeed, a strange tale, they claiming
to have walked clear across the state OF
Iowa, from Davenport to Council Bluffs.
Their pitiable appearance, their apparel,
their marks of exposure, their shoes with
soles worn clear off, all seemed to bear
witness to the truth of their statement.
They we're objects of pity, indeed. The
gave his name as Duke
Gregory, and said that three years
ago he married the woman in Omaha,
her name being Clark. For two years
he worked at brush making, but a year
ago met with an accident which crippled
his feet, and laid him up for six months
Being out of employment and out of
money, he concluded to start back for
Omaha, hoping there to meet some of his
old friends, and get employment. The
officers at headquarters Clipped in
enough change to get the sorry couple
to eat, and paid their fare across
the river.

BLAINE BbTTERS,
How Some Had Il Pay for Being Toe
Sure of His Election.

Saturday afternoon some of the novel
bets made before election were paid off,
much to the amusement of the by-stand-
ers, who watched the sport with glee,
although tho weather was anything but
favorable for street corner gaping. f.
Odell, the secretary of the board of
trade, was one of the victims. Because
his favorite, Blaine, did not get there, he
had to mako good his promise to Gus
Bergman, which no did by kicking his
white Blaine hat along Broadway. shout
ing "Hurrah for Cleveland" every time
he kicked. There wasn't much left of the
hat or of Odell's voice by the time the
kick was over. Gus Bergman marched
along with him, beating a big bass drum
with two sticks, one not being emo ugh to
express his delight and enthusiasm.
Bergman, as q bass drum s~oloist, showed
himself to have great force and spirit,
but lacked in that delicacy of touch which
charsctorizes such artists as Wall Nc.

Jim McMahon was another victim He

agreeable to victor and victim. Harry
Hunter, of the Nonpsriel, was to hav,

on the work in India, a subject with
which he has been made very familiar
by residence there of

"Tell the Truth"

The Globe, which is, in fact, only the
dear old lady's evening dose, gives the
above heading to an article attacking
THE BEE, 1t Starts out with, ''THE BEE,

cry concerning the excavating on lower
Broadway, preparatory to paving. Mr..
Tilton should have read the contract
bsfore publishing his attack against the
city government, etc." The old lady's
twilight nap is characteristic of tho old
lady herself, and is on a par with the
bogus News editorial. Let the Globe
surprise itself Tor once and ''Tell the
Truth" The fact is, THE BEE makes no
such attack, aud raises no such hue and
cry, and tho lie Ia made up out of whole
cloth. Yet the Globe itself admits there
is some cause for complaint, but that
''the property owners will have little If
