were atlll unemployed. lie b lid that
he had been Informed that there waB
considerable work that could be done
to advantage at the park, and in view
of the fact that the organization had
shown sueh an interest iu its establish
ment and maintenance it would not
he out of place for the board to
reiinout of the commissi"'' rs that as
many men as might be employed with
profit, be put to work at once. The

the light Hying gentry have pestered
South Side residents with their aupeals

beggars made his appearance at the
parsonage of Rev. Peter Christ yester

Father Christ had just come in from
Raying mass and as he was passing into
the dining room he heard a commo
tion. Qoing out to see the cause of
the trouble, he saw a tramp who in
sisted on getting a beUer meal than
the servants had stt bofore him. Whon
the pastor made his appearance the
vagrunt said:
"This is a h of a breakfast to got
in a priest's house."
"Don't you likuit?" asked tho priest.
"No,"' was the reply, and jumping
up he struck a Jim Corbett attitude.
Father Ciirist reached for a stout
cane and tlio tramp started for tho
door. Father Cnrist followed and
when near the outer gate he attempted
to pull a revolver. He missed his guess,
as tbe priest rushed 011 him and the
fellow was glad to uet away, receiving
a good crack from tho stick camel iu
the right hand of the priest's muscular
form.
Father Christ informed a Tribunes
reporter last eveuiug that the eervant
in bii house and the sisters in the com
vent were subjected to such fregnon
annoyance of late that they were bj
coming very uneasy.

"The temperance address delivered

MAYOR CONNELL'S ARDUOUS TASK.
Obliged to Will Ins Name Fifty-two
Thousand Time.

Wright his signature 52,000 times.
.Assuming that the mayor wrote his

be obliged to work 5,200 miuntes, or
more than eighty six hours of contin
uous employment,
The mayor's offico is no sinecure.
