AS THICK As BEES
City Flooded With Tramps and Beggars
Yesterday.

The oldest fnhabitant has never seen
such a large number of tramps and
beggarS as were on the streets yester-
day. They fairly lined Main street for
two blocks and no one could escape
them. Some of them were worthy fell
lows but the greater number were sly
rascals who were, in the language of
John Fisher, onto their job. They knew
very we'll who to pick out for their vic
tins. For instance, a young man was
walking up street with his girl, he
would be met face to face by one Of
these gentlemen of the road who would
say: Mister. can't you help me out
with a piece of money to get me some
thing to chew on?'' This said he would
shrug his shoulder and cause his train
ed teeth TO rattle as if ne was freezing.
The young man accosted, of course,
must seem generous and kind in the
presence of his sweetheart and he digs
up a quarter. In a few minutes the
hunger wanderer is in a joint drink
in to de health . dat guy" that gave
him the price of a meal. Then again
on Christmas day a man is naturally
generous and if NOT he must do some
thing to convince himself that he is
and many shell out ten cents while
their conscience is protesting. The
tramps are dead on to the weakness of
human nature. Then again a great
many people actually believe that ii is
right to share with an unfortunate
brother and il is such a hard matter to
see who is and is not worthy that they
give to all in preference TO denying one
who is actually suffering. The very
best way to do is when a man asks you
for twenty-five cents to get a meal is
to take him to the restaurant and de-
posit quarter there for a meal for
him.
In consequence of the large number
of trarnp-beggarS on the streets yeSter-
day the city jail was full last night
and, by the way. most OF them were IN
a state of lordly intOxication. The po-
lice winked at begging yesterday, but
now that Christmas is over. every
tramp found soliciting on the streets

HAD A JOLLY TIME
BIG CHRISTMAS TREE FESTIVAL AT
SONS OF HRRGAN HALL
Sons and Daughters of the Fatherland
Gather Around a Christmas Tree and
Have a Merry Time-The Great Rattle
Contest was for Pig and Herr Tatgen-
hust Knocked Him Of the Christmas
Tree, So to Speak-Zimmerman Presents
Presents the Prizes in Eloquent Style
Dance asd Music Till Morning.

A great gathering of Germans assem-
bled last night at the Sons of Herman
hall on North Main street. The at
traction was genuine German Christ
mas tree festival, and if anybody
doubts the reputed jollifcatiOn of the
Germans at an affair of this kind they
should have seen them last night.
Some 800 or 400 people were present
and the boys and girls and babies We're
largely in evidence.
AT the south end of the hall there
was a fine pine tree replete with tinsel
and ornamentatiOn and all eyes were
turned toward ii.
The presents were numerous and the
principal ones were ratified. There was
a big rush for chances and a neat sum
was realized.
Herman Tatgenhorsf drew the pig. II
might be stated here for fear somebody
would be deceived that the pig was not
on the Christmas tree, but peacefully
sleeping in his pen not dreaming for a
moment that he was the subject Of
such lIilarity and good feeling. Every
body wanted TO get that pig for some
reasons but Mr.. Tatgenhorst had more
good luck than anybody else that
sought the animal.
The house was won by Mr.. Spring
born and he walked with it accounting
himself under many obligations 10 his
lucky star.
Mrs. Jake Eckert and Mrs. Otto
Zimmerman each got a baby-that is a
baby doll. Unfortunately they have no
children 10 play with the dolls but dur
ing the long winter evenings both Jake
and Otto can imagine that the dolls are
sure enough babies and have a good
time with them.
Colonel HUFFMAN drew a pair of
stockings.
Otto Zimmerman made the presenta-
ton speeches in his usual eloquent
manner and by his witicisms caused a
great deal of merriment.
Max Roller welcomed the guests in
a hearty speech that touched the Ger
man heart, judging from the applause
that it received.
Henry HUFFMAN and his brother,
Fritz, played on the piano and violin
respectively. and treated the audience
to some elegant music.
After the Christmas tree festivities
were over the floor was cleared and the
guests danced until morning.

CAUGHT A ROBBER
Mr.. ROGERS Has A BIG TINE WITH
a BURGLAR

When He Entered His Residence Last Ev-
ening He Walked Into the Arms of the
Roober-Both Scramble for the Revolt
yer But the Burglar Gets Possession of
It-In an Effort to Get Away He Entered
a Room and Mr.. Rogers Locked Him In
While He Alarmed the Neigbors and
Summoned Oficers.
There was great excitement on North
Market street at s o'clock last evening.
The cry OF burglar startled the entire
neighborhood and disturbed the Christ
lily circles.
At $50. Mrs. T. J. Rogers went TO call
on a neighbor and. of course. did not
consider il necessary 10 look the door.
Her husband came back from a visit
down town during her absence and
sauntered into the house as leisurely
as usual
His wife did not meet and greet him
as is her custom. but instead a rusty,
burly burglar did. and you may be as
sured that Tom Rogers Kentucky
blood was stirred. He rushed for his
revolver but the burglar got possession
OF ii first and owned the field. The
burglar, in an effort 10 get away with
out unnecessary bloodshed, tried 10 re-
treat by the back door and ran into =
room instead. Mr.. Rogers shut him in
and locked the door and then Justify
shouted for his neighbor. DR.. Allen 10
come TO his assistance. The doctor did
not hear him and then Mr.. Carpenter
came along. He asked Mr.. Carpenter
TO stand guard while he went to DR..
Aliens, where he rang the bell and
shouted for dear life. DR.. Allen and his
son, Charlie, all unarmed. strengthen
ed the guard. Mr.. Rogers then went
across TO DR.. Oldmans and not only
called up the police. but enlisted the
doctor also as a member OF the guard
He then ran 10 the county jail and by
the time he came back with Sheriff
Royse, officer w. W. Hams had ar
rived. but he, too. was unarme6 and
the burglar still held the castle. When
Sheriff Royse arrived on the scene ade-
quately equipped TO push the siege the
burglar had been captured by Doc
Root. He is now in the county Jail
and there is hardly doubt but what he
