THE PEOPLES HOME RAIDED.


Nine unfortunates were arrested last
night because they CHANGED to be poor.
They were boarders at the Peoples Home,
No. Ill East Court street, where a poor
man can live easily if not too fastidious.
In the crowd was a man with one leg,
cripple, an old man on canes, two colored
men, a man who could not speak English
and three laborers. The charge of vagrancy
was placed against each one. The arrests
were the result of a well-planned and fine
ly-executed raid conducted by Sergeant Cor
rigan and patrolmen Wheeler and Milan.
No one was injured in the capture of the
crowd
A telephone message received at police
headquarters last evening stated that the
Peoples Home was in a state of riot. 1t
was charged that there was drinking and
fighting. The officers must have passed a
half dozen saloon which were violating the
law, but when duty called they passed on
ward, not to be turned aside BIZ SO trivial
thing as saloon.
The home was surrounded and the nine
boarders taken prisoners. No one bore evil
was drunk. They were poor. but quiet
looking lot. The night clerk at the home
was among the captiyes. All Of them had
not begging. nor. so far as known, is there
any evidence that they have been. One
man, who had money, said he was gar
Qener ana naQ regular pOSltlOn. Otners
claim to be making living, although ell
said they were having a hard time of it.
One man was recognized as an old offender.
In the crowd was a very old man who
hobbled along on two canes. He claims to
be existing on money earned by an oc-
casional job and that given by Charitable
friends, who remember the time he did not
have to stop at a Decent lodging house.
This old man at one time was prosperous
business man here. He owned a large down
town grocery and meat market, which
made for him a good living. From this
store he saved several thousand dollars, 1t
being common report that at one time he
was in independent circumstances. He was
ambitious to increase his business, but re-
verses came and ne lost. He continued to
go downward until all his property was
gone, and now old age sees him penniless.
With his misfortune came discouragement,
which drink failed to improve. He has a
son who would care for him, but the old

Nina Pennington, n south Carolina
Colored Woman, Attempts Suicide.

Nina Pennington. young colored woman,
employed at No. 213 West Court street, took
morphine yesterday afternoon. hoping there
by to end her existence. DR.. Garsnwiler, of
the City Dispensary, was called, and he
succeeded in bringing return of conscious
ness to the young woman. She was removed
to the City Hospital, where it was said last
evening that she was out of danger. The
young woman came here from South Caro-
lima a few months ago. She came North
thinking work could be obtained here and
she would consequently receive better treat
ment. Instead, she has met misfortunes and
found it hard to obtain the wages she ex-
pected. She became sad and homesick,
wishing she were again down South, but
she did not have the means to return.
