TROUBLESOME TRAMpS.


They Create Much Excitement at Bridge
vile, and One Has ais Skull fractured.
Special Correspondenceo OF Gazette and journal
BIidgeville, Aug. A half dozen
tramps unaer the influence of liquor
created some excitement here yester-
DAY, and ono is now in dangerous con,
dition with fractured skull as re-
suit.
One of the men rushed into JONES'
store In the afternoon with bloody
face and bands and carrying'a long
bladed knife. He jumped across the
counter, and crouehing behind it asked
that he bo allowed to remain there Us
he feared q man would kill him,
Driven from here the crazed man
leaped upon the rear axle of passing
carriage In which was seated promi-
nent society lady Of the town and began
to climb In SO as to hide from his
apparent enemy. The young lady, ter
ribly frightened, jumped from the
vehicle. Some men came up and drove
the tramp away.
while this was transpiring two of
the tramps held up team driven by a
eolored man named jolly. They got
in his dearborn and one with a knife
and the other with board made a
rush for the colored man. Frightened
though he was he secured q board and
dealt each OF the men blows upon the
head, Both fell from the wagon in
sensible. One soon recovered, but the
other is suffering terribly with what is
reported to be fractured skull. Lust

was necessary to put him under the

Jennie West Heard From.

Jennie West, who was married by a
sympathetic old soldier by the name of
Jones, bailing from Milton, nearly two
years ago. Jones having read of her
being in destitute circumstances in
Philadelphia, has again made her ap-
perance after a long absence. For the
past few days she has been going from
house to bosse at Nays Landing and
Cape May singing songs. She has at
tracted great deal of attention by her
peculiar actions, and it is believed that
at times she is beside herself. After
she and the Milton man were married
she suddenly disappeared from the
Sussex town, and not until then did
Mr.. Jones realize that he had been
dupad. She next turned up in Sam
tiago. Cal, where she won the heart of
a Bible reader by the name of Everett.
They Travelled together for some time,
but she gave him the cold shoulder in
Florida. Both came North, not together,
however. and Everett has been looking
for Jennie in Philadelphia for the
past few, days. 1t 10 said they were
seen together for an hour, but she again
left him and was next heard OF at
Mays Landing. She will probably be
sent to an insane asylum.

Association Desires to Turn it Over to the
ts City for the PuDiip Benefit.
The Wilmington Free Bath Asso.
citation has decided to turn over its
property to the city, if Council will
accept it and use it for the public bone
tit. The property comprises the Ray
mopd bath house. William S. Hilles
secretary Of the association, has sent a
communication on the subject TO the
Mayor and Council, in the course of
which be says:
"The Wilmington Free Bath Asso-
citation was organized some years ago
for the purpose of supplying free bath
houses in this city. Through the
liberality Of Mr.. Job III. jackson, shortly
after the organization OF the associa-
tion, bathhouse was presented to it
by him, which has been in constant
use since then until the present season.
The organization has been dependent
entirely upon voluntary subscriptions,
but at present il has been found i'm
possible by the management to secure
a continuance of voluntary subscrip-
tions spflicie for the purposes of the
association. The matter has been dis
cussed at considerable length, and it
bias been decided that, as the enter
prise is public one, and one which,
in other States, is managed by the
public authorities and should be SO
managed here, the only practicable
solution of the difficulty is to hand all
of the property of the association over
to the city, free OF cost, and disbapd
the organization, which has at least
started the free bath movement in our
city. We therefore propose, and on
behalf of the association, make this
proposition to you, that We will trans
fer to the city all of the property of
the association, free from any obliga-
tions whatsoever, and with no. condi-
tions imposed, excepting that the
property shall be used for the public
benefit. " ea
In Mr.. Hilles' opinion the baths
might be beneficial to class of the
people who do not receive as large
benefit from taxation as some others.

gold. You couldn't sell a municipal

Charles M. Curtis was asked con.
cerning the use of gold clauses. "I've
already begun to put them In my
mortgages, be replied.
why do you do that?" asked the re-
porter.
Because, though have confidence
in sound and honest common sense OF
the American people to repudiste at
the polls the wild heresy OF silver
monometallism yet as precaution |
deem it wise to protect the interest OF
clients by inserting such a clause as
will enable them TO receive back the
same value that they loaned. I loan
gold or what is equivalent to gold and
want to get back gold or the equiva-
lent for gold. This is common business
sense.
pihh tuo prbdenp' agltdtlOni Tor
the free coinage of silver is made in
the interests of two classes, owners of
silver mines and debtors. The former
will be benefited by free coinage to an
enormously disproportionate degree.
The debtor class will suffer, for the
creditor always has 1t in his power to
protect himself, by requiring payment
TO be made in gold; as all debts now
due and all future debts will be made
payable 10 gold.
I'm this present crisis in the nation
the salvation OF the country is with
the wage,earners, who will be pinched
first, last and all the time. ~
A Wilmington man within few
days has sold cargo of American
products to Germany The contract
specified payment in gold. One Of
the reasons given for this is the fact
that ii the amount was for $40, 600 and
the kind of payment not specified,
when the debt was due the debtor
might send So, 300 OF gold here and
buy silver that, would be coined into
$40, 900, and with that money would
liquidate the $40, 600 Indebtedness. By
specifying gold payment it will take
