Thirty tramps eppeared in the Fort Wayne police court recently, and seventeen were sentenced list Monday in Richmond. Wherever there are not stringent laws against vagrancy, there appear scores of able-bodied men who do not hesitate to denominate themselves tramps. There are among them aston ishingly few old men they are, almost without exception, sound, strong, young or in the prime of li'e. Wherever they are permitted to remain unmolested there is at once a marked increase in crime, incendiary fires, rape, theft and similar offenses being laid at their door. They are men who have learned to love idleness, to whom rags, hunger, filth and exposure weather are easy to endure and are preferable to work. To idleness they have added drunkenness and other vices. They rarely reform, returning to ways of honesty, sobriety and industry. Their moral sensibilities have been blunted by a career of crime and of irresponsibility they are steeped in wickedness, devoid of shame, and are a source of danger wherever they go. They look upon the well-to do as their lawful prey, and resolve to live upon the labor of others as long as they are permitted to do so un molested. A violent death or the penitentiary is the conclusion of their experience. Lonely roads that they hauot, and isolated houses which, tea ve.'rs ago, might have been traversed and occupied in perfect security, are now to -e avoided, and to defenseless women, specially, they are a dread and a terror.' Many causes have contributed to their increase. First, an unwillingness on the

employes of a certain class to submit to authority, and to be content with their earnings and their positions. Among these are many whose discontent is reaa onable and not without just grounds others are malcontent, envious and quar rels'rae and incapable of being satibfied although their most exorbitant demands wer-a granted. The second cause is. without doubt, the liberal provision which the rich have made for the poor, Philanthrojihy has became the fashionab'e dissipation of men and women of means and It isnro. Within the past twenty years millions upon millions of dollar* have been invisted in alms bouses, asylums, houses of refuge nd hospitals. And these are not dreary institutiors. Thej are palaces, with til the luxuries that modern iu vention hns supplied there are baths, warmed, well-ventilated and well •iifrtled apartments comfortable, cleanly wos abundant and appetizing food Indeed, it la no exaggeration to say that the drunken, (lissolute mendicant, who 6lids temporary or permanent refuge in an almshouse, lives better than many an industrious and careful mechanic. It ig no longer "work or starve it is "re fuse to work and taxpayers will support y« in omfort." It is the intemperate snd indiscriminate charity of modern alms-givers that is largely responsible for increasing crime and pauperism.

THE EXPRESS, TERSE HAUTE, THURSDAY

HER 5 AND THERE

The Rigler will case will probably nol be ended before the close of the week, if at that time. The defense still have a large number- of witnesses to examine, but are taking testimony quite rapidly. Here and there through the proceedings are scattered incidents which serve to keep up interest in the case. The general tendency of the evidence for the defense ie to show that Eigler was of sound mind at the time he made his will. Among the witnesses examined Tuesday afternoon was James Hook. He testified to conversations he had held with Rigler upon religious topics. Rigler told him that the spirits of certain of the dead who were citizens of this city when alive bad appeared and he had conversations with them. The testimony taken re gsrding Rigler's religious views forms an important part of the proceedings. It appears that he changed his opinions quite often and believed a multitude of things. He fancied the spirit of a deid soldier stood at his side while he was at work cutting out clothing. He also heard the spirit of a woman following him about his house, and thought she wore hoops. He held that the occupations followed by persons in this world would be followeed by them when they got to heaven. He said he would be a cutter if he reached the new Jerusalem.

Attorney Harper, upon cross-examina-tion of a witness yesterday, used this peculiar belief of Rigler as the basis of an amusing question. Mr. Bell, of Cook, Bell A Lowry, druggists, was on the witness stand. He testified that Rjgler frequently purchased drugs at the store, and was prolific in his use of medical terms. Rigler was a frequent purchaser of iodide of potassium. "Did Rigler ever tell you," said Mr. Harper, "that you would be a druggist in heaven and that he would come around and bny iodide of potassium of you?" The wit ness replied negatively, as those present smiled.

Several tilts have occurred during the progress of the case between the attorneys. Yesterday Attorney Sant Davis raised an objection to a question asked by Eggleston, of the d-fence. Mr. Davis was stating his objection to the court "Bih I" ejaculated Eggleston. •'Yes, bah I" retorted Davis. "B-a-b," replied Eggleston. "I don't intend that you shall bah at me," said Mr. Davis, "while I am ad dressing the court and not ynu." "Gentlemen, this will have to be stopped." remarked Jndge Allen. "State yonr objection, Mr. Davis."

Mr. Ezgleston apologised to the court Mr. Davis continued and court settled down to its usual serenity.

The Democrats have recovered from the surprise at the appointment of State 8enator Sellers to the district attorneyship. Friends of Mr. McNutt say the appointment was not wholly unexpected. It would have been a pplendid position for young McNutt and would have brought him prominently to the front, He will return to Terre Haute shortly and resume the practice of law with his father, Judge C. F. McNutt. The Indi auapolis Journal says: "What makes the selection of Sellers more galling is that it was achieved by a minority of tbe party leaders and those who are up to their waists in the record of the revolutionary senators. Mr. McNutt, it is claimed, was supported by uenrly all the representative Demo crats in and out of the legislature, and yet their wishes could not prevail in Washington. He says he was an applicant for the office and therefore cannot consent to taking the assistant's position under his successful competitor. He does not want to be the assistant, and just as soon as ashe can be released from the office will return to Terra Haute and resume practice with his father. Judge Turpie's advocacy of Sellers, strong as it was, it is believed involved no personal feeling against Mr. McNutt. The reason for his .not favoring his assistant is attributed to political obligations to 8enator Sellers and the faction of which he is a part. Leon Bailey wants to be the sfsistant district attorney, and Mr. McNutt is illing to let him take it, for he said yesterday, "I will not have the place."

From present indications there will be a decided change in tbe appearance of business bouses this summer on tbe exterior. Painters expect to have considerable work to do, and have already taken quite a number of contracts. At present several Maiu street stores are being repainted anil othei houses on the business streets. A liberal amount of paint will produce a change for the bettor, and it is gratifying to see tbs expenditure of money in this direction. There are also a large number of residences throughout the city being repainted. It seems evident from the wsy the summer is opening the painters will have a prosperous season.

There is nothing at present being done in regard to furthering the settlement of the Shannon bank affair. An Express reporter met Judge Pierce yesterday and asked him for information. The judge replied that as administrator of Mrs. Shannon's estate, he had petitioned the court to allow him to dispose of Mrs. Shannon's property. Dr. Swafford, as adminiftratot of the Shannon estate, bad also filed a petition to sell the property in order to settle with the creditors of the bureted bank. Tbe roster now stands in this shape. Judse *rce stated that probably nothing would be done Hntil the judge had passed upon the petitions.

Judge Cyrus F. McNutt, beside his reputation as a lawyer, is well known as a literary man. He demotes a large part of his leisure time to literary pursuits. There will be published in the Easter number of "The Current," of Chicago, a short storv entitled: "A Lawyer's Strange Experience," written by the judge. Its appearance will be watched for with a great deal of interest. The storv is a short one, containing about 7,(HK) words. Tbe judge has also written several longer works ot ficiioa which will be published shortly.

The Illinois Midland r.as ordered the return of its annual passes at the time tbe inter-state bill takes effort. The Ohio & Mieaissippi has also made a simi lar rrqnest of holders of its passes. The are quite a number oi the above pas^s held by residents of Terre Haute.

THE NATURAL GAS FIELD.

What an Investigator Kf*ports Concerning the Success of Welle In That Section. Indianapolis Journal.

Mr. McKensie next went to Portland. Jay county, and found an elegant^ g*s strike there, good for heating and lights ing. The wells at Muncie produce about ten million feet a day the four at Port, land about six million, the gas there not being of as high pressure as at Mnncie

At Winchester there is one well. It 1 about one mile from the court hous% The quantity of gas is not large, but the qnality is fine. It is piped into the cjtv a-id used in a number of stoves. says more wells will be sunk there.

At Marion there are three wells, about 320 pounds pressure, the gas much the same as that at Portland. I' is being piped to heat and light the city. Marion is a live, wide-awake pi ace and will makt all there is out of her advantages. From there he went to Kokomc*. where there are three wells and everybody is much excited tbe attention given to the place by Manufacturers. A well is being put down at Peru, and the citizens at that place are resolved" to bore until they get gas. Ono is roiog down to Logansport witb fl itiering prospects At Frankfort they I had bad luck in starting, but the pro j-ctorsof the enterprise are confident they will reach eas at the xequired depth

The well at Noblesville produces agocxl quality of pas, but not as yet much in quantity. Pipes will be laid through that place.

Mr. MeKenzie said that all over north em Indiana there is great excitement, aod many persons are trying to lease gas territory.

OBITUARY.

Hiss Auoa Lee.

At 4 o'clock Monday morning Miss Anna Lee, daughter of Gordon and Elizj Lee, departed this life. She was twenty-six years of age. For many months she endured the encroachments of the destroyer with Christian fortitude and was fully pre pared. When tbe summons came from that land where already her sisters Mary and Lida had gone, her happy soul paused for a moment on the shore, and speaking to her two brothers, she advised tbem as only one who stood where she did, could. It was language warming with life from another world and the light faded from her eyes here to brighten there. "When the tide goes ont from the eea girt lands, It bears strange freight from the gleaming sands The white winged ships that silent wait, For the foaming wave or a wind that's late The treasure's oaBt on a rocky shore. From thn stranded ships that shall sail no more Ard hopes that follow the ehining seas uh! the ocean shall win all these

J. A. McKenzie, of this city, who for eight years during the most exciting and prosperous period of the oil business was an expert in oil teriitory, has recently taken much interest in the natural gas question and investigated the fields ij Indiana.. He has just returned from a trip among the towns and villages whei* tbe excitement rages, having spent sii days at Muncie, and tested the product of the different wells. Some of the wells produce as fine gas as can b? made^ from the best coal, and some a less desirable quality, though coming from the same depth from the surface. The first well was put down last November, and water came. The next well, at 900 feet, struck gas which issues under a pressure of S15 pounds to the square inch. It is of a medium quality, It took about two weeks to put down the next well, which struck gas of a very fair article. After this two more wells were pnt down, making four in all.

When the tide goes oat.

"Bat of all that drift from the shore to the a( Is the hnman soul to eternity! Floating away from a e'lent shore, Like fated ship to return no more, Saddest, most solemn of all—a sonl, Pausing when unknown watere roll. When shall the surging current tend, Drifting slowly friend from friend.

When the tide goes oat.

For her parting spirit pray oh! pray, While the tide of life is ebbing away, That her soul may pass o'er summer seas, Then clasped of old Heeperidee On a bark whose sails by angel's hands, Shall be furled on a strand of golden sands And her friends that stand on a silent shore Knowing that she shall return no more. Wish her the joy of a voyage fair, With oalm sweet skies and a favoring air

As the tide goes oat.

AN EDITOR ELOPES.

A Delphi Journalist DlstiBRulsbM dim. self by (Jarring Off a Bride.

DETROIT, March 23.—Another Drlphi editor has created a sensation. This time it is an elopement, and Mr. Rheno Isherwooil, for several years past editor of the Delphi Times, under A. Cramp ton's management, the man who brings the profefsion to the front. Mr. Ieher wood came to this city from Charlotte, Mich., and took an editorial situation on the Times. Soon after he came here ha made the acquaintance of Miss Katie Brown, a bight and attractive young lady, and the youngest daughter ol Mr. Thomas Brown, a prominent merchant. The youug lady's parents are Cathc lies, and Ishtrwood a Protestant. They opposed the yenng man's atten tions from the beginning, on several occasions ordering him from the bouse, and oa one occasion Mr.Brown swooped down upon the couple at the skating-rink, and, taking charge of the girl, took tbe task of escartina her home off the young man's hands. Matters were brought to a climax on Saturday evening, when the two repaired to the Episcopal rectory, and were made man and wise by the Rev. Braddon. They immediately took the train for the groom's home in Charlotte, and it was not until late at nigbt that tbe facts in the case were made public. The 'girl's parents will not relent, and state that under no circumstances can the daughter return to her former home.

THE FISH-BAI WAR

Great Rxcltrment nt Portland, Can»«d by the Arrival of a Party of Nova Sootians.

PORTLAND, Me., March 23.—Great excitement was created among fisber-men along the docks to-day by the arrival of the Nova Scotia merchant vessel On Time, with a p»rty of Nova Scotia fishermen on board. The new arrivals were roughly treated by the indignant Americans.

In some way the report gained ground that one of the men who. having sold bait to Captain Dougbt, "informed on bim," was on board the On Time. The report was false, but had he been here he might have received very rough treatment. One of tbe most intelligent of the strangers said they came here to ship, because there is no money in ie fisher f»s anywhere else. The big men of the Dominion care nothing for the poor fish ermen. The Nova Scotbns wanted th' government they formerly had thr-y wanted to sell their bait. It is all they have to sell. If they can do this tbej can make a good living, but otherwi-f they mast half starve. Tbe editors whr claim that they don't, want commercis intercourse with the United States never bad a big lot of bait on hand, an empty larder at home, and a big Yankee
