A Raid on Tramps.


A telephone message was received at the
patrol house yesterday at 6 80 p. m, asking
that the wagon run out to Lsgonda and run
in crowd of tramps who had built a ERE
and were making themselves extremely COM
Portable, about . half a mile beyond that
thriving suburb, near the c.. c., C. b I. rail-
road track. Happening to come along just as
the wagon wagon was starting on the expe-
dition, a GLOBE REPUBLIC reporter jumped in
and went along to see the fun. Arriving at
Lagonda he found all the able bodied citizens
and several boys and girls turned out to give
the officers and wagon a reception. There
was no lack of guides who volunteered to
show the way to the lurking place of the
obnoxious pedestrians, and the procession was
soon under way. 1t seemed very romantic,
that tramp for q half or three-quarters Of
mile along the race bank, At times clipping
and sliding halt way down the bank,
and anon tearing out one of the
most cherished members OF your
mustache on thorn tree. How
ever, the scene OF operations was finally
reached and the larger part of the somewhat
numerous retinue halted while officers Foster
and Mills and the aforesaid reporter advanced
to the fire and held q parley with the sup
posed desperadoes. Some eight men were
sitting around the fire and under pile Of
coats, shirts and socks was found another
dead drank. After considerable saucy talk
on the part of the tramps and some plain Lam
guage from the officers the latter produced
their handouts and proceeded to secure their
prisoners. While the officers were busy put
ting the darbies on two or three the rest
began to scatter and run. Seeing this Foster,
addressing no one in particular, shouted out
to grab some of them ard hold them. The
reporter accordingly, with the bravery which
is characteristic of him, selected a tramp
whom be thought too drunk to be very des-
perate, and with rare courage watched the
desperate william until the officer was
ready for him. The villain in the meantime
endeavored to knock him out with bis breath,
but the reporter saw him and went him one
better. Four Of the tramps were secured, in
GLIDING the oneNwho lay on the ground dead
drunk. The question now was how to
get this fellow across the railroad bridge to
the wagon. He was finally shaken into q
half sober state and, supported on each side,
got along without much trouble. After the
wagon was reached the labor of the expedi-
ton was all over and the fun began. 1t turned
out that the most of those who had congre-
gated around the 6re had just been discharged
the day before from our chain-gang. One OF
these captured remarked that he wouldn't
mind being taken very much if they only
gave little more feed at the station-house
Altogether, the party was in good spirits, and
it would have required a lively imagination
in an observer to mistake it for funeral cor
.sge. The names of the tramps, as given at
the station-house, are mentioned in another
place.

Two weeks John Shank, living west of the
city, in the MelIinger neighborhood, attended
market, and complained to others of a sharp
pain in one OF his thumbs, as though caused
by thorn. The pain became so severe that
he went to doctor, who at once pronounced
the cause to be a bone telon, for which treat
ment Was given. The trouble increased rap
idly until at last the arm was frightiuly
swollen, to the shoulder, and last night Mr.
Shank died after suffering terrible agony. 1t
was proposed, In the effort to save his life, to
ampuIate first the thumb, and when too late
