Yesterday tramp called at the residence of
Col. A. D. Streight, about three miles east of
this city, and asked Mrs. Streight for employ
ment, which was readily given him. When din
ner time had arrived, Mrs Streight gave the
man his meal in the kitchen To this he loudly
objected, and deliberately walked into the
dining room, seating himself at the table with
the family and visitors. The male mem
bers of the family were absent, but Mrs.
Streight led him out of the room by the arm.
The tramp swore at her and threatened to burn
the house and Kill the inmates, when Mrs
Streightseized a shotgun and ordered him off
the place. A colored farm hand arrived just
then, and took the gun, marching the tramp to
the city limits, where Louis Waupnats and John
Haffner, two butchers, were met with their
wagon. The situation being explained, the
butchers seized the tramp and brought him to
the police station, but not until he had cut
Waupnats severely in the face, and was himself
badly beaten.
