Twelve years ago a garig of ragged tramps bound for Chicago were thrown from a Ilurllngton train near PaclAo Junction. Alert brakemen kept the crowd from hoard ing another train and the wanderers were compelled to'walk back to Omaha. Among tho hoboes was a slender youngster who looked strangely out of plncc In the drove f professional hums. That boy was Jo- slah Flynt Vlllar.d. Tho runaway boy whose blood ran too fast for quiet home life did not stay on tht road permanently. After eight months of omadlc life hu returned to his homo In Evanstnn and took up a more conventional, career. In a few years .his experiences as hobo were published In a book called, Tramping- with Tramps.'1 ltl night ho told a large audience at tloyd'a theater about his unusual associations with tramps and criminals. The well-groomed lecturer did not sug gest the ragged knights of tho toniato can, whose lives have been tho .subject of hla life study. Ho talked of "Denver Red," 'Illack Mlko," "Slim" and half a dozen other hoboes sb though they were his most Intimate, friends, and told many stories about the vagrant class. (irnritiiitlnn of VnKrnitcj-. Trnmps arc discouraged criminal. They are men who have tried to bo criminals and havo found that they haven't sufficient brain to become successful crooks," said Mr. Wlllard, or Mr. Flynt, as he Is popu larly known, In describing the associates of his youth. "I havo estimated thnt there are 00,000 professional vagrants who never work, These men aro divided Into three classes, Tho upper crust Is made up of fellows who dress well and usunlly havo a little money. Tho middle class has poor clothes nnd Is less prosperous, while- the lowest class Is the ordinary tomato can hobo. "Every year these men aro forced to de vlHe new mnthodtt of extorting money nnd provisions from tho public. Many of the tramps carry young boys with them who nro taught to work nn tho public's sym pathy nnd have better success than ndults In getting provisions. Thcro nro at least 7,000 boys who aro being educated by tramps. From these boys come the rein forcements which will perpetuate this class of roving vagrants. Tho boys of tho rich nnd the poor nro lured away by tramps and trained to provide for their teachers." Mr. Flynt told of experiences he has had recently In assisting with tho policing of railroads, and expressed tho opinion that tho tramp nuisance will be abated when railroads succeed. In preventing the va grants from riding on trains. He cald that If the railroads quit carrying hoboes they will be forced to take to country roads, and that farmers will not tolerate Idlers. In the World of firnft. During tho last year Mr. Flynt hos de voted much of his time to tho study of cor ruption In municipal governments. Chi cago, New York, Ooston and Philadelphia have all been visited by Mr. Flynt nnd a re tired safe robber whom he employed to help in Investigating the relations existing be tween police officers and detectives and criminals. "Iloston Is less under the sway of the criminal classes than any of the other three cities," said Mr. Flynt lu discussing the perfect understanding ho found to exist be tween officers nnd criminals. '"In all tho cities vice was found under the eyes or officers who were paid to keep quiet. The corruption is not In politics. Tho Indi viduals In pollco depart incuts and their chiefs were found to profit by tho Bharp practlcc. Investigations havo been started in Chicago and New York which have rev olutionized tho world of graft and' have opened the eyes of the public to the sharp practices of men whom they had hired to protect them from criminals."

It Is be lieved that tho prevailing sentiment was opposed to the admission of cluba composed of colored women.

They hae agreed to leave tho question to the attending physi cian, Dr. Upjohn, who will decldo It to day. Meanwhile the advantage lies with the groom he has at least recovered his bride. Bride's (Hrl Friends Assist. A large share of tho credit for tho bril liant coup executed by Mr. Day shortly after midnight Friday morning belongs to two young women, friends of tho bride, whoeo names, at their request, aro with held. They did the clover rietectlvo work which led to the finding of her prison house, 1710 South Tenth street, and they did sentry duty, while ho went In nnd niado tho highly spectacular rescue. Ho was gtldcd from first to last by their counsel. Tho police have played thus far a very In considerable part In the affnlr. At 10:30 o'clock Thursday night Day, tho two young women nnd two city detectives went out to the South Tenth street house In a street car. There they found the brldo confined to her bed with a nervous attack. tho result of excitement, as she has been In dclltate henlth for several months.

Wo walked slowly back toward the house, meanwhile arranging tho details of tho attack. When we arrived It mint hnvn been near midnight.

I could hear him working at the sash. Peaking around the comer, I taw him leap out of the window and run. "I realized then that tho moment for ac tion had come.

I tried to get Into my wife's bedroom, but the door was locked and I had to smash It In. I told her not to be frightened, that I had come to take her home, and suggested (bat she- dress as quickly as possible, wlllch shn proceeded to do, "I- then went to the outsldo door and looked out.

With Mrs. Brown hanging to Anna's ankles I bad to virtually drag both women toward the carrlago by main force, I don't know how I would have made out If It hadn't been for the help ot the. two young women. They managed somehow to break Mrs, Brown's hold and to detain her until I could call the driver, when thn four of us boarded the cab and drove away. That was the most desperate scrimmage I ever had In my life. It was after 1 o'clock In the morning when we Anally got home. Not a Nplrltnallsl.
