Things That Puzzle Tramps.

Say, Bob" said the tramp to his COM
panlon, who was sharing with him the
grateful shade of a spreading oak tree, II
can't tell what makes desc yer strikers
want to stop udder fellers from workin'
L amt never had no temptashun to make
a man quit work. l like to see a man
work. When lays down to smoke my
pipe and take life easy dere amt nothin'
Wot makes me feel so good all over as to
concentrate my wishun on some fellrr

me feel contented wild me lot. By gum
dis yer's free country an wot say is de
man wot wants to work ought to be al
lowed to work, an Pm dead agin any
man wot trys to stop him."
YOU'RE dead right" rejoined Bob in
the same philosophic strain, ''but tell
yer human natur is a mighty queer an
uncertain sort O. thing, an de more sees
OF 1t de less l understands it. Now,
dere's you an me. Live an let live is
our motto, an we lives up to it. We
never try to stop nobody from workin',
an we never try to make nobody work
wot's got constitushunal scruples agin it..

people in dis world wot don't respect our
rights not to work 'caus we don't feel

Yesterdays FIRE.
The Pioneer Box Factory Had a
Narrow Escape.
The Flremen Striving to Subdue the
Flames With Ten-Foot
Streams of Water.

Yesterday afternoon a fire broke out in
the sawdust bins in the engine-house of
the Pioneer Box Factory, in the block
between Front and Second, S and L
streets. The gas works adjoin on the
south, and directly north of the factory
are extensive lumber yards. Hence a
general alarm was sounded, which
brought all the fire department and a
goodly portion Of the population to the
scene.
The engine and boiler-house was To-
Gated about fifty feet from the factory,
and consisted of a one-story structure
built Of corrugated iron over a wooden
frame.
The firemen were seriously delayed in
their work through lack of water and
the bursting of fire-hose, but with even a
couple of twenty-toot streams they man
aged to prevent the main building and
some fiatcars loaded with lumber from
burning.
The fire in the engine-house was ter
rife, the dry and burning sawdust max
ing of it veritable furnace. Many spec
tators were afraid to venture near through
fear that the boilers would explode, but
fortunately tHey Hdu gOOd supply or
water and held out until the fire was ex-
tinguished.
The Southern Pacific officials sent down
the company's fire train to aid the de-
partment.
1t was very discouraging sight to see
a number of modern steam fire engines
standing about and an otherwise we'll
equipped body of experienced firemen
endeavoring to do something to check
the seething flames, but almost powerless
because OF lack of water. For long
time the best stream the tiremen could
get barely reached the roof of box-car
With decent water supply the fire
could have been extinguished in five
minutes; as it was, it required more than
an hour for the firemen to extinguish the
flames, and if there had been a high wind
the loss would have been very great.
AS it was, the damage was confined to
the engine-house and contents, and will
reach a few thousand dollars.

The Equal Rights entertainment, given
by Mrs. Ella Kilgore at the New Hope
Hail on the evening of September 10th,
was well attended, and was a success,
both socially and financially. The large
nall was tastefully decorated with ever
greens and ivy. Over the door in large
letters, covered with evergreen, was the
motto, welcome ALL" In the most
prominent place on the wall, in large let
ters, covered with evergreen, was the
moIto, Equality Before the Law" On
one side OF the hall siXteen-foot silk flag
WIN one star, and the streamer printed
wyoming" represented the one State
where men and women are politically
equals. On the opposite side of the hall
the Union flag was unfurled, and smaller
nags were scattered about the hall.
1t is said that New Hope never had the
nonor OF entertaining so large an au-
dlence as gathered on this occasion. AS
IL was quite late before the audience all
gathered IL was thought best to dispense
with the address, as the programme was
quite long. The programme was as fol-
lows: Opening song, "The Equal Rights
Banner; recitation, by Mrs. Like of
Lodi; song, Taxation Tyranny; recita-
ton, by Miss Clara Parsons; drama, en-
Titled The Crow Hill Lyceum," of fif
teen characters; solo, by DIR. Weeks,

Women Go Out to Voter" For an en-
core he gave recitation. Reading of the
New Hope Budget, by the editor, Mrs.
Carleton; dialogue, "After Marriage;
song, Give the Ballot TO the Mothers';
recitation, 1.-The Wyoming Flag" by
Mrs. Ella Kilgore.
Petitions asking the Legislature to pass
law granting full suffrage to the women
of California were circulated for petitions
Misses Katie Houskens and Jessie
Thornton sang duet whilethe petitions
were being circulated.
Then there was a recitation by Miss
AIDA Swartz, and duet, Gently Signs
the Breezes," by the Misses Harshner,
which closed the exercises.
At the close of the entertainment ice
cream, cake and lemonade were served
The receipts were $50, and the expenses
$40, leaving neat sum to buy suffrage
literature with for free distribution
Twenty names were secured to the petit
ton.
All appeared to have a good time and
to enjoy themselves. Many thanks are
due the people of Gait, Lodi and New
Hope in so ably assisting in making this
first Equal Rights" entertainment a
success.

o'clock VIM. West, Gen. Stanley's
ambulance driver, made q desperate
attempt to take his own life by cut.
ting at the arteries in his left wrist.
He had been working on the Gener.
aPs ambulance and after finishing
the work went into q shed near by,
took out his razor and commenced to
operate upon himself. About an hour
later Charles Haven, an enlisted man
who works In The quartermaster'
corral. went to the shed and hearing
labored breathing entered and found
West lying on his back almost dead
from loss of blood, which oozed from
several gashes in his left arm.
The wounded man was taken upon
q litter to the Post hospital, where
the Post surgeons W ere called In and
attended him. The wounds are ugly
ones, but were he younger he
might recover but as he is near
IS years of age his recovery is very
doubtful. He is very weak from loss
of blood and sleeps the greater part
OF the time. He is not expected to
live over tonight.
When he was picked up Mr.. J.
Speers, of the corral, asked him If he
did 1t himself aud what cause had he.
West answered, Eyes I did it N.Y.
self, but I don't know why. Some
thing seemed to be the master with
me, at the time and 1 couldn't help
trying to kill myself" Some lay the
cause to financial embarrassment but
In regard to the latter he had no
cause to kill himself, as when found
he had $l2l in his pocket.
West has been in the service over 25
years, and being unfit for linial service.
has been driving for the officers and
in the corral for half that time. He
drove the school ambulance when the
10th infantry was at the post, aud no
driver vas then or is now liked so
well as he was by the children, who
almost worshipped him For the past
two years he has been driving for
General Stanley.
West has held several good posi-
tious at the post and has always
given satisfaction to his employers.
There is probably not one person at
the post, who knows him, who would
speak otherwise than good of him.
