airy Engineers held their regular meet
ing Wednesday, March Is, at their hall
in the Cullen hotel The melting was
called to order by the president, and
the officers and members took their re-
speetive places and prepared for BUSH
ness. The minutes of the Vast meeting
were read and approved. The roll was
then called and large attendance re-
sponded to their names
The president then announced that
the subject for discussion for the even
ing was "condensing machinery" which
called for large amount of black
board work in the way of mechanical
drawings and figures.
The engineers showed great interest
in the subject and each took a very ac-
tive part. The condenser took up
about all of, the evening. but every
engineer present got a thorough knowl-
edge of condensing machinery and is
able to state which will be the cheap
est and best machine for each and
every place. The members wish to say
to the owners of steam plants that it
would be a good insurance on their
property to employ a member of the
association. 1t is worth more than one
hundred times the extra money to
pay an engineer, then they have u
man who is capable and reliable to
take care of their property
property owners could then also as
sure their tenants that their lives are
perfectly safe from destruction by
boiler explosions.

A PROFESSIONAL MENDIcANT.
His Income From Begging Reached
$500 u Day.

Il have just walked from the Riggs
house to this hotel said Thomas
Crofton of New York at The National,
land have only been approached by
one tramp. A poor, wretched, SILVER
ing devil, whose poverty needed no
argument. 1 had just finished a
hearty dinner, an excellent cigar, and
my humor was good enough to make
me feel for the whole world OF suf-
fering, so l staked him to a bed and
supper. As I'm not a philanthropist,
don't care whether he used it for the
purpose of lodging and food or bought
some of the fieeting pleasure that a
few drinks of whisky brings.
Tonight you cannot pass a yard on
Broadway without being importuned
by a beggar. Do you know that the
greatest professional mendicant in
the metropolis was created through ac-
cident. He formerly had position as
bookkeeper in some mercantile estab-
lishment, paying SIS a month. One
night he found himself way down
town, far from home in Harlem, with
out a cent of car fare. In changing
his clothes he had neglected to bring
his purse along. Without any hesita-
ton he approached a gentleman and
explained his situation. The book
keeper was entirely respectable, and
had none of the ear marks of a practi-
cal beggar, which, indeed, he was not.
He got his car fare without difficulty.
That one incident set him to thinking
and developed the latent streak of in
dolence he possessed. Every Sunday
when he was not engaged balancing
accounts the bookkeeper tried the
scheme TO test its ability as a money
maker.
The result was astonishingly sue
cessful. Here was a man, well dress
ed, apparently respectable, placed in
a position that in many cases had
been the situation of the very
men he asked for the loan of a
nickel A great majority of them
obliged him. The sequel is short. He
threw up his position and became a
hypocrite and fraud. He has actually
got dimes from detectives and police
men before they discovered his game.
A central Office man told me that the
fellow has collected some days 5000.
At any rate, he is making money
enough to build several houses, and
has an income much greater than that
OF his honest days. He has been ar
rested several times. Upon one oc-
casion they found on him a, great guam
tity of small change, and in an inside
pocket great roll of bank notes. He
is one of the characters that only a
large city can make possible. Wash

Lynched by n Mob.

CINCINNATI, March 23-The CONNER
cial Gazette's special from Chattanooga,
Tenn, says:
A mob took William Murphy from the
Jail at Huntsville, Tenn. last midnight
and strung him to tree. The villagers
knew nothing of it until the body was
found hanging from a honey locust tree
this morning, not eighty PAGES from the
old log calaboose. William Murphy was
in jail awaiting trial for the murder of
Bill Howlin, a miner, three weeks ago.
About thirty mountaineers with masks
on their faces did the work The leader
wore no disguise, but seemed to be a
stranger. He knocked at the door,
awakened Jailer c. c. Ellis, represent
ing he was a deputy sheriff with a pris-
oner he wanted locked up. AS the iaier
opened the door he was covered with a
large army pistol and the keys demanded.
He refused to surrender the keys. The
mountaineers drew revolvers ON the jail
er's frightened wife and daughter and
they got the keys and gave them to the
mob. Murphy was found praying for
mercy. He begged hard for his life, but
if they would kill him he begged not
to be dragged or choked to death. He was
roughly dragged out and hung on the
nearest tree Murphy and his victim were
both miners. Murphy leaves a widow and
several children at Junction City, Ky.
Huntsville is near the Kentucky line.

Brown,x Case.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, March %
For the first time since the exposure
of the Davidson-Overmans scandal, Rev.
c. o. Brown occupied his pulpit in the
First Congregational church today
The building was thronged with cur
ious people, many of them strangers.
DR., Brown chose for his text, Il know
that my Redeemer liveth." He did
not refer directly to his recent trials,
and after the service many people
crowded forward to shake hands with
him. Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper, DR..
Browns chief opponent in the church.
conducted her Bible class in a hall
hired for the occasion. The Bible class
usually holds forth in the church au-
ditorium after the regular services, but
today there was a praise service in
honor of DR.. Browns return, and Mrs.
Cooper and her flock had to seek other
quarters
