Reporters Works Five Hours As Beggar; Makes Four Times Day’s Salary By Leon L. Kay (U. P. Staff Correspondent Buono* Aires — (.United Pres.,) _ A bugger on tha street of this capital cun make $1,25 in un hour. An t in . skilled laborer draws about $2.00 tor eight hours of work. The working classes, contribute eighty percem of the money that beggars collect, ami domestic servants give more then all the rest put* together. Young girls UV( , more charitable that older wonu-n, and widows more than women whose husbands still live. Among tnen, eirt. drivers ure more liberal than chuuf. | fours, and clerks more free-handed than their employers. “Ahns” they rrone. “Alms , po,- , | I amor de Dios.” The enterprising reporter, rigged out as a decrepit o’.d man, sallied forth and picked up the equivalent ot two dimes before he had walked a blo.k He did best at the public market where servant girls were buying poultry and vegetables. Few repulsed him. Cartdriver tossed him nickle coin* .Hoi,, bling to the fashionable shopping district, he found that widows in black seldom passed him by. Also, one senorlta actually turned an caught up with him while her neatly gloved hand sought small change in her pur- . Finding none, she gave him a peso. Such men as did give him something did so with obvious embarrassment. while women were unmindful of passing crowds. He plied the beggar’s. trade unmolested in the busy doorway of a big bank, but was driven from the deserted portals of a church by a uniformed porter who suddenly and mysteriously appeared. During the five hours he played the beggar, he made $6.25, which was four times as much as he made working fifteen hours as a reporter for his newspaper, which he remarked to bis friends, as he changed back to necktie and spats, would soon be looking for a man to replace him. But as the newspaper, for the supposed ben- tit of an allegedly shirking police, used up some two pages with text and photographs exposing the methods ot beggars. our reporter may have some misgivings as to his reception among the gentlemen of the extended palm. Q_ Bluffton —This is a city of real rabbit hunters. Dan Terhune thought he had established a season record when he displayed 76 notches in his gun. Lenord Frankland only laughed and ex hibited 215 “scalps”—his season's total. Peru —Joshua Coffing. 78. has played the roie of Santa Claus so otter his friends vow he needs no makeup other that a custume. He has all the other characteristics of the patron saint, his friends declare.
