lowers, from A to lizard. We
quote one passage from the Proverbs
of Solomon: "Rob not the poor be-
cause he is poor; neither Cypress the
afflicted in the gate for the Lord
will plead their cause and spoil the
soul of those that spoiled them. !"
Police authorities rob the tramp OF
labor and afflict, for no other reason
than because he is poor, but "the
Lord shall plead his cause" through
an aroused christian sentiment, just
as He plead the case Of liberty in
tue "Revolution," or the cause OF
black slave in the american con
fict.'
There must be, there is, some bet
ter way of dealing with the tramp
than merely devising a way OF
punishment. Surely the life OF a
tramp is punishment enough for a
fallen angel, with society adding
to it in excessive fines, i'm
prisonment and hard and unusual
labor. We are not justifying tramp
ing, but we plead for the tramp, be-
cause he is human, and because our
heart and christian sentiment would
raise him up and clothe him in all
the manly virtues of the human
race. and we believe the rock pile
ONLY casts him lower in the scale OF
humanity.

LEWELLING'S TRAMP CIRCU-
LAR.

pings of newspapers on the Level
ling tramp circular. 1t is all I'm
favorable, and much of the COM
ment is not truthful. The Capital
did not publish the circular, and, as
far az we know, no Republican pa
per has done 80. Apparently, there
is a studied effort to make people
believe lot of talsehood.
In the first place, the circular is
only suggestion to metropolitan
police boards to discontinue the
practice of placing IAen on rock
piles who are convicted of no crime.
In all the worlds history, begging
has never been held to be crime.
In Kansas cities, the municipal
authorities have caused and are
causing the arrest OF men who are
without means of support, and
fining them, and then compelling
them to work out their fine on a
rock pile. Arrests are indisciminate.
The professional tramp and the man
who is honestly in search OF employ
ment are both alike treated as
criminals. Poverty is the only Of
tense.
In the nineteenth century of the
christian era, mayors and city coun-
ellis of Kansas have made the dis.
covery that to be without employ
ment, without home, without food,
without clothes or shelter is crime.
Under the constitution OF our
state, no person can be deprived OF
his liberty without due process Of
law. Arresting and fning tramps
is not statutory law, and has no
higher standing than any other
police regulation. This city regula-
ton is in violation of the constitu-
ton of our state. Gov. Lewelling
has broken the monotony by show
ing that, although a governor, he
has a heart and christian spirit, and
dared to exercise charity, even for
"a tramp; and now, the Republican
press of Kansas, led by the Topeka
Capital, is boiling and bubbling in
impish Indignation. The big dog
bayed, and Immediately all the little
dogs set up yell that made night
hideous. The little dogs barked
because the big dog bayed. The
big dog had bad dream. There
was neither burglar or invasion by
an enemy. Ten days on rock
pile will not cure the professional
tramp, and ten days on a rock pile
for a man in search of employment
is an outrage that demands the
sternest rebuke. The man who only
gives a cup of cold water in Jesus
name shall not lose his reward, OF
.'he that hath pity on the poor
leudeth to the Lord" At least, the

infer from the article that the Seattle Chamber
OF Commerce has put stop to any such WORK
being done Cor our picturesque state but such
is not the case. and wish to inform c. T. c.
that the best artists in the Northwest have been
busily engaged for several months painting on

Testimony Proving She Was with Child
when She Shot Boyd.
The hearing Of the case Of Ursula
Thomas Henderson Boyd, has been de-
finitely set for Wednesday, March l, in
the defendants cell at the county Jail. In
accordance with the terms Of continuation
of the case from Friday afternoon, Attor-
ney William Martin, DR.. Crichton and DR..
J. B. Loughary appeared before Justice
Humphrey. The state was represented
by Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Win
stock.
DR.. Crichton was sworn and testified AZ
to Mrs. Boyd's past and present condition.
He said that Immediately after the shoot
ing took place, Mrs. Boyd was taken ill
with labor pains. and was quite i'll for
three weeks. On January Is the pains set
in again and there were new evidences Of
miscarriage. On February S everything
indicated that the miscarriage was at an
end. Since that time she has been gain
ing slowly, but the doctor testified she
was still In nervous condition and could
not Stand any excitement without danger
of producing . relapse.
The state ON cross-examination failed to
break down the evidence in the least, and
only succeeded in eliciting positive state
ment from DIR. Crichton to the effect that
Mrs. Boyd had been enceinte, thus con-
firming the report printed in the Posr-
INTELLIGENCE at the time of the fatal
affair.
On the statement of the doctor that he
thought the hearing could DO conducted at
any time after February Is or 30, the
justice set the hearing for March 1, at 10
O'Clock, in the prisoners cell at the county

MORE YESLER HEIRS.
Iowa Claimants Want Equal
Shares With Lowmans.
THEIR RELATION TO yEsLER.
Attorney Bingham Watehlng she Case
Tor Them-1holf Interest Rests
In Proof of Intostney.

ThesYesle will case promises 70 be still
further complicated BY the claims which
may be set mp by the half brothers and
sisters Of Henry l. Yesler and their heirs,
who bear the same name - he. These are
the claimants who are represented by
Charles w. Bingham, IN attorney of Cedar
Rapids, Ia. who has been closely watch
ing the proceedings against Mrs. Minnie
Yesier.
Henry L. Yesler's mother was Miss
Letter, of Leitersburg, Warrington
county. Md, and the man whose estate 10
now in litigation was the only child she
bore to Henry Yesler. Afterwards she
married q Lowman and became the
mother Of the Lowman claimants to the
estate, of whom. with their heirs. there
are five. Mr.. Yesler, Henry L. Yesler's
father, also married in the same locality
and had Eve children, Of whom two died
in infancy. The other three were named
John, Michael and Elizabeth. John and
Michael are dead, but left heirs who are
still living. Elizabeth is q widow with
out children, her name now being Yeakle,
and she still lives in Maryland. The heirs
Of her two brothers are scattered, some OF
them still living in Washington county,
Nd, and others IN and around Cedar Rap.
ids. Mr.. Bingham said yesterday, in
speaking Of their claim:
These heirs ave the same right to inherit a.
the Lowman heirs. They are all good, honest,
substantial people; some Of them are farmers,
some merchants and some have retired from
business. ! am here - attorney for these
claimants and am ct present simply watching

arises. II there 10 Q will, shall be the 6rst to
move for the probating Of II: II there 10 none,
shall be the first to oppose the probating of
spurious will
It is understood that the Chin of these
new parties to the controversy 10 hostile
to the interests of the Lowman heirs, and
that their heirship depends on the prov
ing of certain facts of family history which
the Lowmans would dispute if forced to
it. Mr.. Yesler never kept up any commu-
nication with them, and when one of the
half brothers. now dead, called on him
and claimed relationship he was coldly re-
ceived and his claim was denied. It is not
likely that the will left any legacies
to them 90 their hopes of secur-
ing q share of the estate depend
solely on their being able to prove that
they are heirs at law. This will give them
an interest in common with Mrs. Yesler
in claiming that Mr.. Yesler died intestate.
If they should prove their right to inherit.
and the existence OF will should be dis
proved, half the estate would have to be
divided among them and the six Lowman
heirs, fourteen in all. Estimating the
value of the estate clear of debt ct 81, O0O,.
600, this would make each share about
$S5. 900.

Accounts Of tn. CLERKS once.

Bookkeeping has been revolutionized in
the county clerks Office. Clerk Gordon
explained the system yesterday, saying
that he had opened set of books by
which it will be possible for him to show
the amount Of fees, earned and unearned;
the amount paid in on judgments. and
the amount in the registry account 1t any
time. The iast-named item is money paid
into court pending the settlement Of liti-
CATION and he'd by the county clerk. The
accounts will check and balance with the
fee book. so that they can be balanced in .
few minutes, and one can tell ct any time
how much money there 10 on hand from
whatever source it may have been re-
ceived. The advantage of this system is
obvious, and in event Of Mr.. Gordon's re-
tirement his successor could almost tell at
. glance the condition of the finances Of
tho Office.

which ended in q row. Pointer slashed
at Rebecor with his pocket knife and
wounded him slightly IN the left breast.
Both participants in the trouble were ar

own recognizance. The case will como up

Joseph e. Bonem, who describes himself
In the complaint as an industrious. sober
and kind-hearted" man, began proceed
ings for divorce against his wife, Milliena
Bonem, in the superior court yesterday.
1t appears that the couple were married in
Canada in 1871, and have resided in King
county for the last ten years. They sepa-
rated in August. 1892, and have not lived
together since, for the plaintiff says that
his wife has ill-treated and assaulted him
with an Ak. and attempted to get at him
with . revolver and butcher-knife. Quar-
reis and abuse were frequent, he says. and
life ID. no longer endurable in her society.
for he fears. judging by her threats and
actions, that she will poison or kill him.
Under these circumstances he asks that
adivorce be granted him, the property di-
vided and the children given into his Gus
tody.
