HOSTILE INSURANCE MAN.
Theodore Thielen Misrepresents His
Business and Protests Against
Exposure.

Theodore Thielen, who has taught
school one term in Morrison county,
is taking orders for insurance in Rich
Prairie, and it is claimed that he
himself as canvassing
for the same companies as were rep
by q Little Falls agent. The
Little Falls agent posted notices in
Rich Prairie, warning the people
that Thielen was a liar. Thielen's
business or feeling were injured,
and he sued the city agent for $25OO,
with E. S. Smith as attorney. The
posted notices were rather severe on
Mr.. r., but the facts were not ex-
aggerated, as near as we can learn.
1t is much the safer way for farmers
to insure with some reliable home
agent who at once issues policies in
good companies, then there is no
danger of trouble in case of loss.
There are many wild cat companies
and irresponsible agents, and farm
ers should avoid doing business with
them.

DISTRICT TREASURER sKIPs.
School District Number IS Loses
Thereby 100000. J..

Chas. Rogers who has been treas
urer of school district number 80 near
Randall for a number Of years and
who has heretofore had an excellent
reputation left Monday for parts un-
known owing the district $4,000.
He was about 80 years old and was
at the present time working in one
Of the mills of the Pine Tree Lumber
company as edger, and living
temporarily in Little Falls with his
family. He left his family with only
three dollars and a small account
due him from the company for which
he had worked. He had no bond
filed with the clerk of the district
and this conveys the idea that he
was quite explicitly trusted. And
hence the district will lose the whole
amount.

CIRCUS AFTERMATH.
Some House. Breaking and Other Con-
cOmitants Of Circus
Day.

+. H. Willard, the young man who
was arrested yesterday by Pinker-
ton detective ON charge Of stealing in
st. Cloud, and who represented him
self to be a city printer, did not
prove to be the man who was
wanted in st. Cloud, but he had a
suit of clothes with him which was
stolen from NJ. Maurin of this city.
1t is supposed to have been taken
yesterday during the parade. He
offered the suit yesterday to a man
for S. whereupon he was arrested.
He was taken before Justice Sim
mons this morning and plead guilty
of petty larceny. The justice fined
him $25 or 60 days in Jail. At last
accounts he had gone out to look up
the money with which to pay his
fine.
The residence of S. Verplast at the
Fair Grounds was broken into yes
terday while the family were at the
circus and a silver watch stolen,
three gold rings, one of which had
gold bangles, and also a revolver.
Most every thing in the house was
gone through and the place left in a
somewhat demoralized condition.
A man was arrested and lodged in
jail last night for stealing a case of
beer from the Benolkin salocn. He
was sent out of town this morning.
The house of Alfred Burk near the
convent was broken into yesterday
and rumaged, but little of value TAX
en- away. In going from the Fair
to the region of the convent the
burglars made quite a jump, not do
ing very thorough work. The night
or morning that the circus came to
town the steam laundry was entered
and three dollars taken from the till.

A CONVIVIAL SPIRIT.

Tramps may be divided into two classes
those who ramble lazily through the ru-
raj regions and the lightning artists who
make long jumps from one big city to an
other, making very brief stops and some
times crossing the continent in two weeks.
These latter gentry possess degree of en-
terpriae that entities them to rank as the
aristocracy of the profession. A New York
Sun writer overheard a conversation at
hobo camp in the south that admirably il
illustrates their methods:
'1'm tired w de south. Pm goin tosneak
In de mornin."
"W'ere sc goin9"
'"ro Chicago an work on de Worlds fair

"i'm .tired,o' dis country, too, but dere's

The next day they disappear, and If they
fail to reach their objective points In q week
or 10 days it IS because they have had bad
lu X. Some Of them keep diary. and here
is sample page: +

In the foregoing dialogue the word work
occurs occasionally and demands explana-
ton. This is the way the hobo puts it:
'lc SCI n :;.mp's u blokc wot won't work

THE MODERN SOLDIER OF FORTUNE.
learned that it is unwise to keep big dog
about the place. A bit of poisoned meat, the
sudden jamming of dark lantern in bis
face, will, to use the vernacular knock him
silly. A little black and tan terrier, one of
those despicable ours that are only good to
bark and howl, will arouse the neighbor-
hood in a jiffy and warn off the intruders
II he IS suddenly aroused in the night by
noises in the barn or hen roost, the discreet
farmer does not light lantern and rush
forth with a bludgeon. He peeps through
the shutters, sizes up the situation and
steels march on his nocturnal visitors. II
he has valuable horses, he does not trust
entirely to the virtues Of bolts and bars, but
keeps barking dog in the barn.
In fact, the rapid sophistication of the
farmer has had tendency to curb the
predatory impulses of the tourists, and
they usually find it much more convenient
to beg than to steal. Like more preten-
tious members of the leisure class, the
venience in all things.
Summer Is the holiday season OF the
tramp. After the vicissitudes of win

ing few months in Jail, or perchance if
specially fortunate, working comfortable

the vagrant, for your tramp is a true son
Of nature He loves freedom and despises
the conventionalities but not the grosser
comforts of civilization. He would turn
savage altogether if it were not for whisky
and the franchise. The former keeps him
in touch with the fashionable vices, and
the latter endows him with citizenship If
rum and freight cars were out of his reach,
he might become self respecting savage
There is a touch of the gypsy spirit in
most men. 1t was this faint that drove
men on ,pilgrimages in the days of religious
enthusiasm and made knights Grant in
the times of chivalry. 1t produced out
laws and soldiers of fortune, pirates, tex
plorers" and adventures of all sorts in
days Of old. 1t has driven thousands of
boys to sea, and In these prosaic times,
when all the romance and chivalry have
been driven out of life by the hard headed
and hard hearted apostles of progress,
when work and wages are hard to get and
rum and idleness go hand in hand, it has
overfun the country with hordes of dirty,
unkempt, disreputable vagabonds yclept
tramps. a.
There is mighty little romance about the
modern tramp He is just a plain, I'M
washed ''buu," picturesque but disgusting
in his rags. He may have seen better days,
but they will never come again. He has
lost all ambition and self respect, and his
only desire is to end his days in idleness and
indulgence. What psychologists call the
bump Of order Is very meagerly developed
in the genus tramp, and that is the chief
cause of his undoing, but. there is some
thing Of system in his wanderings, and a
good deal Of his time during the winter hi
bernation is occupied in planning routes"
for the summer.

On the Upper Mississippi.

The driving season on the upper
Mississippi and it's branches which
started out with so much promise
two months ago, cannot be said to
be in as prosperous condition as
has been noted thus far. At the out
set of the driving season there was
too much water in the smaller
streams, although it facilitated the
driving in the larger ones. Now the
water everywhere is falling so rapid
" that is doubtful if a number of
drives that were counted on surely to
arrive in the boom this season will
get into the river at all this year. AS
it looks now, it seems as if some of
the drives will be hung up indefinate-
ly. In the main river the water has
fallen so much that the numerous
bars are appearing very close to the
surface. The Boom company is ex-
periencing a good deal of trouble
with it's drive ON this account, and
the rear has not made very much
progress since last week. What ia
needed most is a few days rain,
which would help matters very much
at present. Taken as a whole the
driving season will be q most sue
cessful one, as compared with other
years, and the most of the drives will
probably get into the boom all right,
but the season will not fulfill the
promise with which it started out.
No definite news has been received
from any particular source this, week
and the exact condition of things on
the streams farthest away cannot be
learned. II the river continues to
fall in the next week as much as it
has in the past week, the prospects
for the early arrival Of many Of the
drives will be very poor indeed.

If gold continues to come back from
Europe and the expectation has real
ly stopped perhaps the country will
be spared the delight of an extra ses-
sion of congress. The president in
his last interview indicated that it
was only currency question that was
oocasioning any difficulty. Dem
ocraty has nothing now to say con-
corning the robber tariff about which
it detained so vigorously during the
compaign last fall. The robber tariff
bugaboo is for campaign purposes
only.
