The hello Two Meanest Men Constable Llewellyn and Zanjero Brunworth stand revealed before the community as the two meanest men. It all came about this way: A bunch of eight hoboes struck town a few days ago and went into camp in an abandoned ditch northeast of the gashouse. They had with them the epileptic Lemke, already referred to in these columns, who was sent down town to "chuck a dummy," or in other words throw an imitation fit. The fellow succeeded in raising quite a collection of dimes and other small change, with which drink was purchased for the hobo gang. Llewellyn espied the outfit the first evening after their arrival. They were having their supper in the big ditch. A bright fire was blazing, and about the blaze beds had been prepared. Some of the tramps had blankets, and soft couches of leaves had been prepared for them. After their evening meal the tramps spent a time about the camp fire, and later turned in for the night. Here is where Llewellyn's meanness got into play. Hunting up Brunworth he requested him to turn down several hundred inches of water into the ditch the tramps were occupying. Brunworth proved to be as mean a man as Llewellyn. A great head of water soon enveloped the lusty hoboes from head to foot. The Burglar and A burglar entered shortly before 12 o'clock and helped him volvers in the show counter. The he steered the upright showcase containing guns and made he had a chance to double-barreled shotglazed away, the shot at the ceiling.

The shot was heard by people in an operating restaurant, who saw three men running south through the lot, two men being well in front, the otheristance in the rear.
