TWO VARIETIES OF TRAMPS.

THE MODERN SOLDIER OF FORTUNE. tearned that it is unwise to keep a big dog
about the place. A bit of poisoned meat, the |
sudden jamming of adark lantern in his face, will, to use the vernacular, knock him siliy. A little black and tan terrier, ane of those despicable curs that are only good to bark and bowl, will arouse the neighbor hood in a jiffy and warn off the intruders, If he is suddenly aroused in the night by noises in the barn or hen roost, the discreet farmer does not light a lantern and rush forth with a bludgeon. He peeps throngh the shutters, sizes up the situation and steels a march on his nocturnal visitors. If be has valuable horses, he does not crnst entirely to the virtues of bolts and b:rs, but keeps a barking dog in the barn.
In fact, the rapid sophistication of the farmer has bad a tendency to curb the predatory impulses of the tourists, and they usually fad it much more convenient to beg than to steal. Like more preten- tious members of the leisure class, the knight of the road consults his own con- venience in aj) things.
Summer is the holiday gpeason of the tramp. After the vicissitudes of a win- ter in town, “panhandling,” “bummiug chuck,” sleeping in station houses or serv- ing a fow mouths in jail, or perchance, if specially fortunate, working a comfortable hospital, the fragrant breath of June, the open fields, the green forests, the rushing rivers, appeal strongly to the sensibilities of the vagrant, for your tramp is a true son of nature. THe loves freedom and despises the conventionalities but not the grosser comforts of civilization. He would turn savage altogether if it were not for whisky and the franchise. The former keeps him in touch with the fashionable vices, and the latter endows him with citizenship. If rum and freight cars were out of his reach, be might become a self respecting savage.
There is a touch of the gypsy spirit in most men. It was this taint that drove men on pilgrimages in the days of religious enthusiasm and made knights errant in the times of chivalry. It produced out- laws and soidiers of fortune, pirates, “ex- plorers” and adventurers of all sorts in days of old. It has driven thousands of boys to sea, and tn these prosaic times, when all the romance and chivalry have been driven out of life by the hard headed and hard hearted apostles of progress, when work and wages are hard to get and rum aud idleness go hand in hand, it has overrun the country with hordes of dirty, unkempt, disreputable vagabonds yclept tramps.
There is mighty little romance about the modern tramp. He is just a plain, un- washed “bum,” picturesque but disgusting in his rags. He may have seen better days, but they will never come again. He bas lost all ambition and self respect, and his only desire is to end his days in idleness and indulgence. What phrenologists cal) the bump of order is very meagerly developed in the genus tramp, and that is the chief cause of his undoing, but there is some thing of system in his wanderings, anda good deal of his time during the winter hi- bernation is ocoupied in planning “routes” for the summer.
A CONVIVIAL SPIRIT.
Tramps may be divided into two classes —those who ramble lazily through the ru- ral regions and the lightning artists who make long jumps from one big city to an- other, making very brief stops and some- times crossing the continent in two weeks. These latter gentry possess a degree of en- terprise that entitles them to rank as the
Sun writer overheard a conversation at a hobo camp in the south that admirably fl- lustrates their methods:
“I’m tired uv de south. I’m goin tosneak
“Were ye goin?” “To Chicago an work on de World’s fair
| buildin’s.”’
“l'm tired o’ dis country, toc, but cdere’s
too many in Chicago now. Denver strikes
me. I’ve got a friend there.”
“Pye made up me mind to steal a lot uv |
chuck at every meal fera couple uv days
| and den drill to Arkansaw City. It’s only | 93 miles, an I take de train dere an go out
in Texas. De Santy Fee is building 4 branch, an I'll go to work on it.”
“T know w’ere I kin steal a boat, an to morrow I’m going to cross the river an get into Mississippi an d.n go to New Erleans. oy gen pg I'll go to Galveston an shi *

This is the way the hobo puts it “Ye see a tramp’sa bloke wot won't work an never did work, an a hobo’s a guy wot works sometimes, but ain’t never stuck on ft. Ande n w'en you meets one uv yer own hind ye feels like old pals, ‘cause he calla

Tust ine tn the sent cities as the tran niin, thahet 0 gravitates south ward at d works in a desultory fashion on the levees, wandering from one camp to
another until the springtime sends him The following conversation is of an evening’s gossip around the
“It’s a case uv walk all de time in Pitts burg,’ says Pittsburg Phil. “Yecan't go into a saloon dere an lay round all day widout callin fer de drinks pretty fast. I wouldn’t go dere if I wuz you, fer dere’s too many bridges, and ye haf to pay toll to cross ’em. But if yedo go, get in on de Panhandle, for dere’s freight trains every 10 minutes.”’
“De Lron Mountain is one uv de greatest roads in dis country to beat. Ye never get t’rowed off. De Illinois ¢ ‘entral’ s a puddin, too,” Limpy Leeremarks. ‘““W’en ye come back from New Erleans, don't try to beat de Louisville an Nashville, ner de Louisville, New Erleans an Texas, fer dey’ve got nig- ger brakemen, an if you don’t put up a quarter dey’ll pull a gun an t’row you off in a hurry too.”
‘“How’s New Erleans fer eatin'’s an drink- tn’s?”’
“Deed cold. Dey’ve got a tough lot o’ cops, an dere’s an ordinance dere wot sends ye to de parish prison fer askin fer a bite, Wot makes it so tough isdat all de front gates is locked, an ye stand on de sidewalk an ringa bell. A nigger woman coines out an ask swot you want, an ye kin bet she'll never even let ye in de yard.”
“BEATING THE BLIND,”
“Speakin uv de L. an N., dere ain’t uo harder roads to beat dan de New York Cen- tral an de Lake Shore,”’ says English Pete. “Dem Vanderbilts ’s got de brakies trained,
| an ye can’t ride for less’n four bits over a
division.”
“Dey aint any worse’n de U. P. er de Sante Fee,” says Pittsburg Phil. “‘Dey’re a cold blooded lot. An on de St. Paul, be
| tween Chicago and Milwaukee, look out
fer de engineers and firemen. Dey’ll turn de hose on ye an give ye de Jaugh if ye're beatin de blind. I was on de blind on de limitea oncet, an it wus colder’n at de north pole. De fireman sees me an turns de hose on me an laughed. W’en we got to a crossing and stopped, he asks me if I wuz goin to get off, an I sez I wuzn't, an he turns it on me agen an gives me de laugh. W’en we got to de railroad crossin'’s outside uv Milwaukee, I wuzall toe an froze to death.”
In hobo language, “‘beating the blind” means to steal a ride on the mail car next tothe engine. Mail cars with no end doors
are called “blind” and ‘blind gages.”
‘Lhe peripatetics usually travel in pairs and follow prearranged routes. Soon after leaving the winter quarters these pairs fall
| in with others, and bands of from 10 to @ | nomads are frequently formed. Before en-
tering a town they separate and go through one by one, each with an artful tale of woe to relate to kind hearted housewives at the back doors. Before the day is done the wanderers repair to a convenient camping ground where, before a roaring fire, the proceeds of the day’s begging and stealing are divided, cooked and devoured. These camps are of the rudest description, as the tramp’s natural antipathy for labor is
| atronger than his desire for luxuries. When | one party leaves the greund, another takes
possession, and the place becomes a regular resort for knights of the road until it is
| broken up by the authorities.
Altogether the joys of this nomadic life are not such as appeal to persons of well ordered minds. Nevertheless the number of tramps coutinues to increase, and all at-
| tempts to coax or coerce them into habits
of prudence and industry by legislative en- actment have so far been utterly ineffec- tual. C, C. Hurt.
A Hard Man to Kill.
Benjamin Dow, who is recovering from terrible injuries received in a nitroglycerin explosion at Lima, O., has survived two similar accidents at thesame factory. Last
' November his workizg mate, Andy Shutes,
was blown to atoms, only shreds of hia re
mains being found. Dow was biown 80
fect, trees were uprooted, their branches ‘“e‘ling on him, and when rescued he was anconscious, remaining so for many days, finally recovering and returning te work
only to remain a short time, when the |
deadly stuff went off, killing poor Robin- son, Who was working by his side. Dow was again found in a semiunconscious con- dition, with his skull and jaw fractured, an eye blown out and shreds of flesh torn from all over his body. When told that he could not live, be replied, “Well, we will see.” Again his wonderful nerve has pulled him through
