A WORLD OF TROUBLE.

Elliot Smith, His Wife and Nine Small Chill
dren Lose Their All in Mississippi-Civic
Honors Wrecked Him-Chief Elliot's
Song of Sadness.
A handsome man wearing the name Of
Elliot Smith, the air of one broken by for
tune, and followed by wife and nine small
children, entered the Department OF Chari-
ties. As he seated himself in chair and
the numerous little Smiths gathered around
him, it was a perfect reproduction of the
scene in Tourgee's novel, Bricks Without
Straw" and one could almost hear the old
negro say, "Heah we is, Lawd; bag and bag
gage, traps, chillen and calamities."
Elliot Smith was not q colored man, but
a white engine builder. His home was in
Philadelphia. Some years ago his brother,
Robert Smith, had gone to a farm near
Jackson, Miss. Two years ago Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert Smith we're drowned in c food,
leaving behind them a heavily mortgaged
farm and eight small children. Seventeen
months ago Elliot Smith and his wife and
child went to Mississippi to look after their
relatives. Mr.. Smith tried to iarm but
failed. He was elected Justice of the Peace,
but did not get enough business to repay
him for taking out his commission. Finally
everything was sold over their heads, and
since that they have been trying to reach
Philadelphia by easy stages. The poor
authorities OF the different cities had passed
them as far as Pittsburg, and Chief Elliot
gave them transportation to Altoona.
When the poor man and the many chill
dren had filed out some of the people in the
office twitted the chief on his partiality
toward the man because his first name was
Elliot.
Nothing of the kind, laughed the Chief
'I was caught that way once, and never
will be again. A couple of years ago clerics |
looking gentleman, who called himself
Elliot Lynne, wanted ticket to some un-
importan; town in Kansas. He had no
ready money, but had an account in some
bank in the State of Indiana. We got him
a ticket after great deal of trouble and took
his check for the amount. We still have
the check. His bank did not exist in that
town."
