DEALING WITH THE TRAMP

Public Is Awakening to the Fact That Scientific Treatment of Vagrancy ' Is Necessary.

Scientific treatment of vagrancy Is not to be expected in the immediate future, but a good beginning has. been made. ‘' It is now suggested that laws be passed by the New York legislature whereby tramps, drunkards and idlers without means of support be confined in farm colonies. Unfortunately, the underlying idea is that these human wrecks are able to work for their keep, and should be forced tn labor. As.a matter of fact, they are sick men, some of them chronically starved and incurably neurasthenic. That is the reason they are idlers—rot from choice. Denmark has solved the problem scientifically in self-sup-porting institutions. The bheggar or tramp is arrested and taken to the settlement, where he becomes really a patient who receives careful study, is appropriately treated, and given only such’ work as he is able to do. Quite a percentage recover and are released after pesitions are found for them.

Some prefer to remain and thelr earnings accumulate; the Incurables must remain. :

The system has ended mendicahey and vagabondage, and must be adopted here, not only to restore wrecks to usefulness, but as a matter of economy. The railroads alone lose $25,000.000 vearly through steallng or accidents due to tramps. Counting the crimes committed and the other losses, it would be cheaper to spend a hundred millions & year confining and curing idlers than to allow the present orgy of crime to continue, though as a matter of fact, the colonies would become self-supporting. Nothing can be done as long as public opinion holds to tbe delusion that idlers are simply vicious men needing punishment, a delusion as false as the mediaeval theory that the insane must be scourged and loaded with chains.—American Medicine. ~ ‘Controlling the Mind.

The aggressive character of Christlanity appealed to them, and when they accepted the new religion. they carried into 1t the same activity that had brought success in the world ly enterprises of Antioch 4. But the chief reason for the growth of the Antioch church Is given in the text “The hand of the Lord was with them"” “The hand” Is the svinbol of power and of work, Willing Christians are God's hands Through them God can easily accomplish what would be tmpossible to their unalded effortg.

In the davs of Claudius,” the Roman emperor who reigned A D 4154, This doés not piean “all the world” in our enlarged sense, but all the civilized world, the Roman empire; nor does it mean that the famine fell upon all pérts simulk taneously. That widespread failure of harvests and scarcity of food did occur is “singularly well attested, considering the scantiness of evidence for this period. Suetontus alludes to assiduae sterilitates causing famine prices under Claudius, while Dion Cassing and Tacitus speak of two famines in Rome; and famine in Rome impiied dearth in the great corngrowing countries of the Mediterranean: Eusebius mentions famine in Greece, and an inseription perhaps refers 4o famine in Asta Minor."—Ramsey. The famine probabily occurred in Judea A D. 44-46. Josephus tells us that the Syrian queen’ Helena of Adiabene, a Jewish proselyte who was then in Jerusalem. imported corn and figs from Egypt and Cyprus, which she distributed among the pecple to save them f{rom starvation. . : :

This account of the Anticch church is & mirror in which we may view ourselves. Are we true td Christ amid trials and temptations? Is our Christian fellowship broad? Are we practically helpful to others? Are we bold to confess Christ, and abie, in the strength of the Holy Spirit, to bring men to Christ? All this is involved in the picture of the church whose members were the first to be called Christians. : " Communion with Christ. Sometimes at the end of the day, when its cares have gped and the quiet night ig around us, how sweet it is to be with Jesus. To be alone with him snd to feel at home with him! What a refreshment it is, a well in the desert, the shadow of a great rock in a 2 weary land. The cares of life ebb away, and the sorrows of . yesterday are the clouds that swiftly pass 1o come no more. We can almost welcome the trials of life, for if they lead to such fellowship, they have been as the dew of Israel. We can cast all our care upon him, knowing that in the secret of his tabernacle ke will hide us. i s

ENDED WITH A COMPROMISE. Colored Man's Confiict with Con- " science Not a - Victory for Right or Wrong. | S John B. Gough, the temperance lecwurer, was noted as a story-teller, and his storids were always well-suited to his arguments. Mr. W. A. Mowry, in his “Recollections of a New England Educator,” recalls one of them them. Compromise! compromise! What does compromise mean? I will tell you.. R A colored man met a friend one day and said: C “Sambo, Sambo, do you know dat toder night I was sorely tempted? You know [ used to steal. Well, since 1 jined de church I stoped stealing, but you know Mr. Jonsing's shoe store? Well, toder night I was in dat shoe store, and I looked on de shelf and I see a pair of hoots, jes' de nicest pair of boots—jes' my size, mumber fourteen. “Dere was Ge debil, and he say: ‘Take 'em, take 'em.’ Den de Lord say: ‘Let 'em alone; dat's stealin’.” But

A Town of Fresh Surprise. ~ Meissen is a townof crocked streets that wind about delightfully in its depths and suddenly climb the heights on each hand—a town with a fresh surprise of architecture, of costuma or of landscape at every turn. One is constantly finding some landing whence ancient walled steps shoet up on the one hand to the burg and down on the other hand to the river—From Robert Haven Schauffler's “Pomantd Germany,” in Century. .
