sault and battery preferred by a neigh

ed assault consisted of a .slop In the

dren. Mrs. Messinger alleged that he

HECOMING DANGEROUS.
Outlying residences on this side arc
becoming marks for the Impudent and
rapacious onslaughts of the "hobos."
Of late, many complaints have been
made of the great number of this wont-bc-cmployed
contingent. They seem
to time their visits so that they may
make their demands when neither the
men folks or docs are about and In
several Instances have caused timid
women to bt overcome with fright.
An instance of the present method of
getting nlms was shown yesterday
morning at a residence on South Main
avenue. A large, heavily built, alile
bodlcd, but undoubtedly dissipated fel
low, went around to the rear door of
the house and when the lady of the
house opened the door bo ordired her
to "fetch out Homuthun" to chaw on
nnd coffee on the side nnd be
quick, see." The lady was too surpris
ed to be frightened and turning back
into the room she grabbed a heavy
poker and bravely m.ide for sir knight
of the road. He made the best of a
bad bargain and retreated, but not
without hurling defiance, threats and
uttering tho vilest oaths as he went.
