Oax.anp; August 19—The Rev. A. D. Needham occupied the pulpit at the Eighth-avenoe Methodist Episcopal Church Sunday. His subject was: “The Tramp and Our Responsibility.” The pastor said: “The Scriptures command us to work. They say, ‘If any would not work, nei'her should he eat.’ There is, among a large claes of people, ap aversion to labor. They are willing to beg and todepend upon m‘sapplied charity rather than engage io honest toil. These persons are a menace to peace. They reforce all riots, and during distributed social conditions, they prey upon society. Although they will not toil, these mem are constantly prating of the injustice heaped upon the wage earner and are the first to incite strikes or other revolts against existing conditions. In the rural dictricts it has for some time been unsafe for a farmer’s wife or daughter to remain at home or walk out of doors unaccompanied by a male protector. It is said that mendicants cost the State of Massachusetts annually $180,000. The problem of the moden tramp is a serious one. They are without ambition, and prey uponthe tender feelings of charity inclined men and women. The modern tramps will not work. They wander aimsly from place to place. ‘They exist largely by petty thefts, and have perfected themselves in plausable begging until it is made almost a fine art. They corrupt boys]. of tenier years, for the reason that the lade are more successful in obtaining food. from “b» teader-hearted housewife. The iusti‘ation is an abnormal growth up>n the body poltic. Moral suasion is not sufficient to reclaim these vagabonds. Vigorous measures should be used in doing away with the tramp. Laws should be drafted making thepenalty for vagabondege severe. Man cannot escape from work, und those who try to elude this foundation principle are a menace to the State. The civil authorities must co operate with the church in reclaiming the members of the great army of tramps. Christ alone can save, and the’ work for Christain. people in this regard is plain.” HOTICE T0 THE PUBLIC. Change of Laundry Management.

Tom Johnson had an opportunity to attend schoo) antil he was sjxteen years of age, then family reverses compelled his giving up efforts to obtain an education to assist in keeping the wolf from thedoor.

His alertness soon attracted the attention of one of tbe officials of the Louisville Street Railway Company, and he was given a . clerical position at $7 a week, Two years later he was superintendent of the road. He was married when about twenty years ofage. “What have you with which toeupport a wife?” his prospective father-in-law asked. “These two hauds,” was thereply. It wascharacteristic, and it won bim his wife.
