Going down the stairs leading to a cheap restaurant in abasement near by, the pair sat themselves at a retired table in the corner. "I can order just what I want now All right. I'll take a cup of coffee, some buckwheat cakes and sausage, some mince pie—plenty of gravy with the buckwheat cakes—some ham and eggs,

There ain't none tf the northern states as good as the south for a tramp. 1 never got re fused grub down there but once in my life. That was in Arkansas, and I struck a low down white farmer. The planters always give you what you want to eat and a place to sleep. Once a planter, a few miles from Danville, Virginia, let me stay arouud for a week. He used to talk with me about my travels. He was a gentleman, ho was,, and don't you forget it. I'm going to make him along visit when I go down that way again. "Vermont Is a bad state for the 'profesh.' They never refuse you food up there, but they always make you cut wood or do something before they'll set out anything. And then it's generally cold truck, and they say, when you a tnev !c

[rumble about it, ^that's good enough for tramps.' New Jersey, Delaware and Texas are bad states, too, Pennsylvania is pretty good territory to work, but nothing extra." "Do tramps have particular localities to visit at certain seasons of the year?" "Of oourse they do. In the winter northern cities like Philadelphia, New York, Boston and Chicago have ten times more tramps stopping in 'em than they do in warm weather. New York has more thau Philadelphia and Chicago more than Boston. I like Philadelphia best. The women are kinder to a feller than they are in New York. Over there they slam the door in your face and say, 'We ain't got nothing lor tramps.' Here the women look at you say, 'Poor fellow, how hungry he there's a woman on

"I'd strike the captain of one of the freight boats going to Richmond for a free ride. If that wouldn't work I'd go on board when 1 had a chance, and hide myself among the freight. The P., B. A W. tunning south from this city, la decidedly 'N. G,' I've tried beating it one© or twice, and always got kicked off between stations. The easiest railroad in the country to beat is the Michigan Central. I'll tell you what I dene once. There's an express train leaves Detroit for Chicago at about II o'clock at qight. It stops at Wayne junction, Ann Arbor and Jackson. Between Jackson and Chicago, I think, it only stops twice. When the train pulled out of the Detroit depot, one March night, in 1877, I bounced tne front of the express cars on those big through trains, you know, are always kept locked and barred. The messengers cany big sums of money and are afraid of being robbed.

He eats ravenously when the food is brought, and, when it is finished, pushes back his plate, deliberately fills and lights an old clay pipe and says, "Now, boss, what is it you want to know?" "Tell me where your home is." "I ain't got no home I used to have one, though. That was about seven years ago—in New Haven. You know where New Haven, Connecticut, is, don't you?" "What have you been doing since?" "Tramping." "Do you Eriean to say you haven't done an honest day's work for seven years "That's about what it means, in your way of looking at it, I reckon. You see, my trade is carpentering. I went to Chicago from New Haven in 1872. I had $200 vrith me when I started. I spent it,

Then I started off with a feller I kind of lost my nerve, and when I used to tbo busines to tramp to New went down the road I couldn't brace up Orleans.

One time some men did get on the train and sawed their way tbrouRh the front door of the car, bat the express messenger was up to snuff and shot one of the gang. The other two jumped from the train and escaped. Well, as I was saying, I get on the platform and rode through to Ann Arbor all right. My racket was to get off the train when we stopped, and keep on the side of the cars from the station until they started up. At Ann Arbor the brakeman must have seen me get on, for when we had pulled out about two miles the train stopped and I was put off. The moment they started I jumped on again. They saw me, and by the time the train bad

The earnestness with which he spoke arrested attention "Boss, I want to negotiate for the loan of ten cents. "What do you want with it?" "I was going to buy a cup of coffee arid Bome rolls." "If I'll get you something to eat," was asked, "will you tell me how-you man age to live without work?" "You don't have anything to do with them police fellows, do you, boss?"

brakemen trouble. Many's the time I've rode on engines when the firemen and engineer both knew it and wouldn't give it away."

Another big ride I made in one night was from Toledo, Ohio, to Cincinnati. I left Toledo at about 10:30 on the night express of the Cincinnati, Hamilton «fc Dayton railroad. It was so dark you could not see your hand' before you and it was .raining like fury. When the train pulied out I stood on the platform of the second car from the rear and just in front of the Pullman. The conductor passed through and said 'tickets. told him I was just going to ride out to the air line junction, .lA-ee miles from the city. He said: "All right be sure you get off there.' The moment the door of the sleeper closed after him got on to the brake, reached up, caught hold of the top of each car at the end and pulled myself up. You know how a Pullman is made on top? Well, I just laid down fiat, and, holding on to the ventilator with my hands, I rode clear through to Dayton. There's a covered

the train pulled in I stood very innocently on the platform and got off with the rest of the passengers. When it pulled out I managed to get on top again before the conduotor came through. In the morning I was in Cincinnati. Tramps call that road one of the hardest in the country to work."

When did I go the longest without food? Once in Ohio in the month of April, I guess, it was about four miles from a place called Yellow Springs. I had been sick for two days and bad been sleeping in a straw stack. Chills and fever was what ailed me. The third day I started off to hunt up a meal. The first place I struck the man set his dogs on me. That kind of made me feel bad, and I went-back over the fields to the straw stack and slept till the next day. "I was getting mighty hungry then, I tell you. My stomach was gnawing so I was nearly crazy. 1 don't suppose

drover and wanted my dinner. If she'd get me something, I said, I'd pay her liberally. She bustled about, and in half an hour I sat down to the squarest meal you ever saw. There was ham and eggs, corn cakes and n?aplo syrup, somo canned peaches and boss fried potatoes and cream gravy. The coffee was bully. I drank two cups of it. Before I'd finished the girl's father came into the room. From what I could see, her mother was dead, and she was housekeeper for the old man. I got into a cold sweat thinking how I was to get out of the scrape. I commenced by asking him if he had any yearling calves for sale. He said he had, and we went out into the orchard to look at 'em. I struck a bargain for the lot at $12 apiece, and said I'd send a man for 'em the next week when I started my drove for Cincinnati. The old man dropped to my little racket then, and I got the worst booting you ever heard of. My! how the old man brought his number twelve brogans to bear on me. But the meal was worth the pounding." "No, slr'ee tramps don't have no signs or pass words among themselves. Who tola you they had You read it in a newspaper, eh Well, perhaps there's eight or ten fellows get together sometimes and agree to stand by one another, and have certain marks to leave on the doors of houses where they go, but that's all, Tramps are never long enough ip one place to get together and fix up signals and watchwords.

The newspapers say things about us fellers sometipies that makes me think they are prejudiced. Tramps have always existed. They're as» necessary as lawyers, and always will exist. I met

street that has given me a warm meal I of books and he said that tramps were every day for a week. When I was highly respected in the time of King there last I told her I was going to bring James. Their racket used to be to say a friend to dinner with me when I came that they'd just come from a next time, she said, 'Is he hard up, to the holy land. You know where

holy land'is, don't you No? Well, It's somewhere in Egypt, I don't know exactly where. "At the time of King Arthur there used to be tramps, too. They was well heeled, they was, and used to go round the country on horses, and called them' selves 'knights.' Their lay was to pre tend to be in search of distressed females and women that wanted their husbands „. killed. They was well organized, and

I've been thinking of the King usftd to back 'em up. They used to nave something to do with a round table, but I've forgot what that feller in Virginia said the table had to do with it all. "The tramps in this county has got to organize, that's vrliat they've got to do.

I've been thinking a good deal about it lately. A tramp In a hotel on Market street where I'm staying now—they give yon a bed there for five cents—told me that Dennis Kearney was conoin' east to organize 'em, bat I don't know whether it's so or not—do yoa He is comin', is he? Well, that's wat the other feller told me. I heard Kearney speak in Washington last summer. He's the boy to stand up fer the poor man. II he was President be woula'nt see us suffer.

judgi such a fellow as me up for life. I told that judge that if I ever had the obance and caught him outside his court I'd mark him for life, whether I had aright or not. A Joliet paper wrote about it, and said I was a criminal of the most depraved and villainous character. That was nice, now, wasn't it, when I'd done nothing but stand up for my own rights as a private citizen of the great United States?" "Every time a barn is burned in the country the tramps always get.credit for it. But no one ever says anything of the lives of a whole family in Michigan. Their house was on fire at night and if he hadn't woke 'em up they'd have aH been roasted. Yes, sir and another time I heard of a tramp who signaled a train that would have been run into & big log placed across the track, if he hadn't stopped it. I read a newspaper, though,

that the tramp put the log there himself, and expected the passengers would give him money for saving their lives. I never believed the stogy, "but the feller got two years in the state's prison, all the same.* "What, are you going, boss Well, good-night, and God bless you. You're kind gentleman. Would you -jnind loaning me five cents for lodging? "Ah thank yon, Boss, tnank you. You're a gentleman, you are, if ever there was one."

PHILOSOPHY OF ELOPEMEN18. London Truth. It has been noticed that girls who have happy homes elope more easily than those who have been much bulliod by their friends and this is only natural, for the latter fear the wrath of their family most. The happy girl, who for once meets a resistance to her wishes to which she has not been aocustomed, frets under the curb like a restive filly, and, deciding to bolt, reflects that she shall be able to make matters all ryjht with her friends by and by.

Mr.Gadbois, of Brockville, Canada, after being cured of a prostrating mafarial disease contracted in Texas, by mean of Warner's Safe Pills and Safe Bitteis, writes to us: "I shall never travel in that climate without your Safe Bitters as a part of my outfit."

From a Distinguished Physician.

XT0 single disease lias entailed more suffering or JLi hastened the breaking up of the constitution than Catarrh. The sense ofsmell, of taste, of sight, of hearing, tho human voice, the mind, one or more And sometimes nil yield to its destructive influence. .The poison it distributes throughout tho system atacks every vital forco. and breaks up the most robust of constitutions. Ignored because but little understood by most physicians, lmpotently assailed by quacks and charlatans, those Buffering from it have little hope to °be relieved of it this sido of the grave. It is time, then, that the popular treatmentor this terrible disease by remedies within the reach of all passed into hands at once competent and trustworthy. The new and hitherto untried method adopted by Dr. Sanford in the preparation of his HAJ IOAI, CUBE has won my hearty approval. I believe it likely to succeed when all the usual remedies fall, bccause it strikes at the root of the disease, viz., theacfctlfcd blood, while it beals the ulcerated mcmbrano ny nasal passages. Its action is based rules, and unless the vital forces are too far ex.
