__ A Ticket Scalper’s Story
-*•
[Original.] I’m a ticket scalper. It's not much of a business and doesn't give a man much of a positiou In the world, but a scalper lias a human heart, just like any one else. A scalper may feel Inclined to bestow that heart upon a woman. I had that inclination once, but I’m never going to have It again. Women are the most ungrateful creatures In the world. A woman who would treat a man as one of 'em treated me Isn’t fit to live on the face of the earth. One day a pretty, melancholy looking girl of perhaps twenty-two came Into my ollice and said she wanted to get to her mother, who was lying sick In Cincinnati. She said she was broke and wanted a ticket for about uothing. I bad half a mind to give her a ticket, charging up the amount to myself, but that would be giving a stranger something like $1*, and, while, us 1 said, a ticket scalper lias a heart, lie isn't the kind of man to give things away that he can’t afford to give. I was looking among my old stock for something pretty cheap when I came across an unused half of an old excursion ticket, the limit of time of which had long ago expired. It occurred to me that If the girl worked on the sympathies of the conductor as she had on mine she might induce him to pass her through on it. 1 told her what 1 was thinking about and that if she was Inclined to try it on I would ghe her tile ticket free of charge. She asked if there would he anything dishonest in such an act, and I told her I didn’t think there would he; there would be no misrepresentation. If the conductor wouldn't accept the ticket the worst he could do was to put her off at the first stop and she would be just so far on her journey. If she got stranded In a strange place she could got on the next train and go farther on the same ticket, and so on. She said she wouldn't do that, hut if the conductor would let her go through on the ticket she would do so. The ticket had been paid for by some one, and she didn't think the road had a moral right to refuse it. I agreed with her as to that, and she accepted the ticket with heartfelt thunks and tears
In her eyes. She looked hungry, and I asked her if she was going through without anything to eat. She said she'd have to, and I felt so sorry for her that I asked her to go out to a restaurant and tilled her up with oysters, beefsteak and a lot of other things. 1 remember the bill was $3.50. Her train went at 12:05 o’clock, so 1 took her to the theater. If you want to love any one, just do something for ’em. The more 1 did for this poor girl the more I thought what a lovely home she could make for me. By the time I left her at the station I would have bought her a good ticket, hut I’d spent all my money. 1 told her to keep up her courage and she'd go through all right. She said that I was one of nature's noblemen and I would lie rewarded for my kindness to her. As the train moved away she waved her hand to me out of the coach window, looking at me with tearful eyes. It wasn’t a week before I received a note from the attorney of the road over which I’d given the girl a ticket stating that they had a ease against me for swindling and must either shut up my shop or they would send me to state prison. I went at once to the attorney’s ollice and asked to know what it meant. He showed me the ticket I had given the girl with a sick mother and asked me if I’d sold It to a deaf and dumb girl. I denied the charge and admitted I’d given it to a girl who could talk as well as I could. Then he told me how the ticket had been used. The girl had poked it at the conductor when he came around, and he told her it was no good. She began to talk to him with her fingers, and, seeing her condition, ho had given her a pencil and paper on which she wrote that a ticket scalper had sold the ticket to her for the regular fare. The road was trying to get a case to scare us scalpers, and the conductor, backed by the passengers, who were indignant at such treatment of a poor deaf and dumb girl, passed her through, but he stipulated that she should give the name of the scalper, which she did willingly, expressing the hope that they would punish him soundly. Well, I told my side of the story, and when they sent to the address the girl had given them for corroboration of her side they found there was no such street ami number in existence. The officers of the road believed that the poor girl shrank from appearing against me and had, therefore, thus concealed her abode. But, not having any evidence against me, they didn't prosecute me, though I remained under a cloud with them. Not long ago in looking over a newspaper my eyes were attracted to an Item headed, “Working tho Deaf and Dumb Racket.” The Item stated that Mary Moyers had been arrested for traveling on railroad trains on worthless tickets and pretending to bo deaf and dumb. She represented that the tickets were sold her by ticket scalpers, thus exciting the sympathy necessary to get herself passed and often to draw forth a contribution from the passengers. 1 sent the clipping to the officers of tho railroad she had swindled, and they wrote me a note of apology. But I don’t want any more women in mine. MERRICK ANGUS.

M, there will be a short joint chapel. This will be immediately followed by the flagpole ceremonies of the class of ’08. President Guy R.

SOPHOMORES GIVE PICNIC Second Year Students Had Jolly Time at Springs.
On Friday afternoon the members of the Sophmore class gave a picnic supper at Big Four Springs west of the city. Assembling on tho steps of East College, at 5 o’clock the merry crowd walked to the pleasure ground. The fun began at once. Various stunts were engaged in until G o’clock, when a delightful luncheon was served. Afterwards, just as the sun went down, a huge bon-fire was built. The “D” men and others who have brought fame to the class of ’10, were then called upon for speeches. The remainder of the time was spent in toasting marshmellows, playing out door games and telling stories.

GERMAN CLUB MET The German Club of the University met at the Phi Kappa Psi house yesterday evening. The program was a very interesting one, including a violin solo by Miss Mattern and a German song by Miss Agnes Luther. Miss Brown read an original story which was appreciated greatly. ,
The above mentioned article closed with this statement: “A large number of DePauw men have had hardihood to attempt explorations and it is to be regretted that they have left behind no accounts of their experiences.” Strange as it may seem, In the dead of the winter just passed four of DePauw’s young braves accompanied by four “co-eds”. And well supplied with candles, strings, etc, started out to explore this famous cave. The results of the exploration are not particular)' startling except that in some instances it was necessary to pass through apertures ‘unspeakably’ small. Traces of a few former explores were found frequently and these led the party to go farther in the mud and along the rocky paths until it was impossible to go further. Many subpassages w’ere entered, but there were none that could be found that led clear tip under the campus, as it has been alleged one passage would do. It is probably that the street which had dropped filled up the passage. The natural beauty of the cave is decidedly negative in character. Nothing but filth and mud are seen under foot and over head is bare damp rock. In only one place could all the party assemble and actually stand up.

BRAZIL TO BE A PARK Business Men's Association of Clay County Capital Takes Stand for a Beautiful City and Offers ITizes.
The Times wants to congratulate the members of the Brazil Business Men’s Association for their activity in matters that mean the advancement and betterment of Brazil. It is really the only organization of business men this city ever had that actually had just the right spirit in it. This organization is active and means to do things, and the fact that every fellow, instead of knocking and criticising the acts of others, puts his shoulder to the wheel and helps make the thing move. Such a combination of hustle, unity and brains is sure to do wonders for this city. One of the movements that is to be launched soon has in view the beautifying of the city. Brazil fifteen years ago had the reputation of being the ugliest town on earth, and how much it missed deserving the reputation we are unable to say. But the progress made by this city has been a most astonishing thing, and today, instead of being the ugliest town on earth. Is one of the handsomest and cleanest cities in Indiana. However, there is still much room for improvement, and the business men’s association is determined to increase the beauty of the place ten fold. They will accomplish this in an unusual manner, the idea being to offer a long list of prizes for the best kept lawns, the daintiest homes, the best driveways, the cleanest streets, and many other things of this character that go toward beautifying a place, ft is expected that
through the advertising. Yet it is figured that a greater number of nice prizes could be offered iu this manner, and a greater interest would be aroused.—Brazil Times.
