HAVE NO USE FOR TRAMPS,
Commercial Club Anxious to Have Them
All Sent TO the Stone Pile.

A Letter was received. yesterday, by Col.
Eli Lilly, OF the Commercial Club relief
committee, from a gentleman in Green
castle, connected with the city government
there. reading as follows: II have noticed
in the papers the noble efforts of the Com
mercial III 10 provide work for the needy
OF indianapolis. i am inclined to think,
however. that the wide publication of the
same has turned the tide of '~trampdom'
toward your city. I interview tramps every
day, and for several days past find all OF
them headed for Indianapolis. 1 trust the
good people OF indianapolis nave the means
or protecting themselves from this army
Of the genius hobo that appears TO be
centering there, as / understand the object
OF your efforts TO be TO provide for the
citizens of your own city,"
The Commercial Club committee has done
all in its power TO have the ordinances of
the city enforced against the tramps who
are preying upon the sympathy and liber-
altty OF citizens who give to them under
the impression that they are unemployed
workingmen in need. The city authorities
have been urged 10 inaugurate a vigorous
policy with reference to tramps. The
County Commissioners have ordered sew
eral carloads of stone. which have been
delivered at the wOrkhouse and the super
fntendent there has been instructed TO put
all Migrants at work breaking stone.

Despite the football fever Thanksgiving
was religiously observed in this city, all
the churches being we'll attended in the
morning. Collections were taken up for the
poor at many Of them. The matinees were
well attended in the afternoon, the disa-
greeable weather preventing many from go

AT the public Institutions there was the
usual Thanksgiving dinner. with a number
of extras to the usual fare. The inmates

The Rev. DR.. Peters preached in both Ger

have the usual dance. as the dinner was too
much for them. The provisions and food
collected by the school children on Wednes-
day were delivered, and many a poor fam
lily found a dinner where they had expected
none.

SCHOOL C~HILDREN'S GIFTS.
They Contributed NobIy to Thanks
giving Dinners to the Poor.

AhN " ny OOA
The children of the public schools of this
city have done a great deal for charity in
their Thanksgiving contributions to the
poor. Every school contributed a portion
to the whole, which amounted TO a sum in
the neighborhood of $500. Besides all this
money every scholar brought a mite of
something else in the fruit and vegetable
line. Some contributed clothing and what
not that could be useful to those in want.
At a number of the schools these offerings
piled up by the barrel. and were cartei of
TO the charities. Several wagon loads OF
potatoes, caObages, apples and other eata-
bles were the result OF this system Of COL
lecting. instituted by Prof. Jones. There
has never been a season when such things
were received with more gratitude, per-
haps, than are these, ana it is TO be hoped
that another such will be long in coming.
The collection was all turned in to Prof.
charity organization for distribution.

PECULIAR FIRE.
SmOldering Flames i'm the Ceiling of a
Cigar Store.

At 1 o'clock yesterday the fire depart
ment responded to a still alarm from the
building occupied by the Deschler cigar
store and Goes insurance offices. corner OF
Market and Pennsylvania streets. No fire
could be detected, but much smoke poured
from the windows of the insurance office.
An incipient blaze was finally found be-
tw cen the floor of the upper apartments
and the ceiling of the cigar store 1t was
thought that an overcharged electric wire
created the trouble. but the exact location
of the flaw could not be found. After the
department had gone another alarm was
sent in from the same locality, and for half
the afternoon the firemcn searched for the
blaze. 1t was found about 6 o'clock within
a few feet of the fireplace. Two weeks ago
the department was called to the same
building.
