The Old, Old Story.

As a newspaper the GRAPHIC is
obliged to relate this week striking
instance of mans duplicity and wom-
ans worse than weakness which is of
local character A few miles out of
town there is little baby girl seven
days old the father Of which bids fair
to be like Lenore, "nameless forever
more" The mother is young girl
who for a year o, more past has acted
in the capacity of a servant girl in
several Klmball households. Although
fully approaching her position she
stolidly refuses to give the name of
her betrayer, who 1t seems has pro-
vided her with ample funds to allevi-
ate as far as possible her sorrow and
to in measure satisfy his conscience.
The mother of the girl IS nearly
heart-broked over the disgrace which
has fallen upon her daughter, and out
of respect to her we withhold names.

If you find a mouse in the preserves
don't make a fuss about it and call

quietly lick the preserves off the

at the same time dispose of the mouse

A Gang of Tramps.

Word reached the Marshal on
Wednesday evening that gang of If
teen Or twenty tramps had congre-
gated in the brush near the bridge on
Weber River, and were holding a grand
carnival. Accordingly the Marshal and
officer Chambers repaIre to the place
soon after nightfail, prepared to run
them out or arrest them. They found
the tramps engaged in having general
good time, having procured a key of
beer. The officers descended on the
assembly. and after a severe struggle
arrested three of the carousers and
drove the others of. One of the belig-
gerents struck Officer Chambers in the
stomach with a rock, another mar
rowly missed the Marshal's head; while
still another was about TO strike him
with stone, when the Marshal dealt
him a heavy blow across the face with
his pistol. The trio was brought to the
city and safely lodged in jail. The one
most pugilistically inclined will be ar
raigned this morning. The other two
are mentioned elsewhere.
