TRAMPvILLE. THE REsTFUL.
Once a Deserted Village, Now Peo-
pied by Men Who Don't Pay Rent.


Trampville, Wis, cannot be found in
the postal guide, nor is it shown ON
any railroad map, but it exists, never
theless, with an average population of
not less than 200 souls.
Trampyille is situated in Douglass
county, on a clearing cut out of dense
pine forest where the river Brule gives
up It's ripping waters into Lake SUI
perior. 1t is called Trampville because
it is the home of tramps exclusively,
and has been for nearly three years.
Previous to that time its name was
known as Clevedon, but that name is
seldom heard now.
Clevedon was founded about Is years
ago, by asyndicate of Englishcapitalists
whose scheme was to build up lake
port town to rival Duluth and Superior.
Neat little cottages, handsome store
buildings, boarding houses, and hotel
and woodworking mill equipped with
expensive machinery for the manufac-
ture of hardwood products were con-
structed in a remarkably short time.
The town was built, however, before a
tide of migration had been turned to-
ward it, and it seemed difficult to in
duce people with more or less capital
to believe that in Clevedon they would
find their fortunes. Nevertheless, 900
or / 1000 persons settled there. But these
persons discovered after few months
that the bubble was no more; that the
great resources of the town had failed
of development. They left the place,
and Clevedon, the magic city, dropped
into the lethargy of a deserted village.
The tramp discovered Trampville
about three years ago. He took pos
session of it in the name of his tribe,
and the revival of the village from that
time on has been healthy, though per-
haps not very clean.
| They lived there 800 strong last win
ter and no cases of starvation have
been reported. They say they lived upon
fish taken out of Lake Superior and deer
that bound in the region. Others say
they robbed the henhouses of the farm
ers thereabout.
The big frame building once used as a
hotel now is the principal roosting
place of the inhabitants of the town.
It's lobby, great old-fashioned fire.
place, serves the purposes of kitchen,
smoking-room, and every night during
the winter great rolls of smoke come
from the chimney. while dozens OF
seedy individuals huddie about the
blazing log, some smoking. some chew
ing, some telling stories. others listen
inR and still others sleeuinR.--N. Y.

BACK FROM THE EAST.

DIR. Edward Bennett arrived in the
city yesterday on his return from an
extensive trip to New York and other
eastern cities. The doctor usually
makes an annual visit to California,
but this time decided to go east and
made the trip by water. 1t seems to
have benefited him greatly, for lie is
looking the picture of health. He says
that the phenomenal rise in wheat and
corn has set the entire east to talking
over better times and hopes that only
half of what they say will be realized.

LONG SUFFERING.
he Was A Prominent Lawyer And Rspub-
lican And For Twenty Years United
Stats District attorney.

Judge A. ]. Evans died this morning
at his late residence, 800 West Pop
lar street, aged 60 years.
Hon. Andrew Jackson Evans was
born in South Carolina in 1882 He
moved to Georgia and Alabama when
a young man and practiced law. He
came to Texas in 1852 and made his
home at Waco. He was then a Dem
ocrat and was elected to the bench as
district judge at the commencement
of the war. He was opposed to Sc
cesSion, but entered the service of the
Confederacy as a private soldier. He
was offered commissions as officer,
but refused them, and after the war
he became a Republican. In 1872,
President Grants second term, he
was appointed United States attorney
for the Western District of Texas and
served under Presidents Hayes, Gar
field and Arthur. He was succeeded
by Hon. Rudolph Kleberg, who was

! Judge Evans was noted as one of
the ablest prosecuting attorneys in the
southwest. He was terror to vio-
| lators of the Federal laws in West
Texas for twenty years; an uncom-
promising prosecutor, and never pros
'ecuted anyone until he had reason to
believe him guilty. He stood high as
lawyer at the bar and was recog-
nized by all lawyers as man Of very
superior legal ability. AS prescott
ing attorney he was always courteous
to his opponents, honest with the
judge and fair with the jury.
OF late years he was in bad health,
suffering from pulmonary trouble. He
had practically abandoned practice
and was seldom seen in the courtroom
lately. He has accumulated consider
able property and has kept in easy
circumstances He was a man of
simple habits and always took deep
interest in the welfare of his family.
The remains will be shipped to Wa
co over the International tonight at s
O'Clock, and will be accompanied by
his daughter, Mrs. Rugg, and husband.
Services will be held at the family
residence this afternoon at o'clock.

THE RETIRED BURGLAR.

Meets a Gentle Hearted Woman

'.At the foot of the stairs in the front

retired burglar, II stumbled over some.

feather bed. If had had grain of
sense at all should have suspicioned
something from that, but I didn't. 1t
looked as though it had been just tunn-
bled downstairs and left there to be
carried off in the morning, and let
it go at that and stepped into it and
over 1T to the first step of the stairs and
on up.
Stepping up on the fourth step I
/ kicked against a string stretched across
the stairs and broke it. That made me

with it. / looked up. I expected it to
be connected with something there.
And it was; and it was coming down
the stairs at me and filling up the whole
stairway. 1t was big feather bed.
Even then I didn't see that the, one
coming down had anything to do with
the one down on the floor, and at the
same time I couldn't understand why
anybody should roll anything like a
feather bed down on anybody; bulky,
to be sure, but so light that it was an
easy thing to stop.
81 put up my hands to stop this one,
but I might just as well have tried to
stop a mountain. 1t was soft and
squashy ON the outside, but it weighed
ton. 1t just bowled me right over back
ward, and I fell on the other feather
bed at the foot of the stairs. Then
began to understand what that one was
for. 1t was to save the bones of the
man that was tumbledI over by the av-
aanche bed.
81 lay there nearly smothered by the,
bed on top, and working out from under
it gradually.
