There are tramps aud tratuMk Many,
a poor follow who has zpent hi laM cent
aud is out al the elbow wants to try his
luck in another part of the country, but
be has no menns of petting there except
his heels. These will not carry him far
without hunger staring him in the f;u.-e.
lis slinks abuat some freinhtyurd, and
when a train is pulling out begs a train
man to carry him along bit.' lie ad
mit, that he is trump, but be inn't; he's
a beggar aud a tenderfoot. There are
others, who have Jut got their haud in,
traveling from town to town, and when
a trainman catches them atowed away
in a box car they whins piteoualy and
recount their sufferings or thone of a
tick family miles away which they are
anxious to get to.
hOW E&aL Tnaju a ACT.
"These are no tramps," said a brake
man. "There is nothing interesting
about them and they are a nuisance.
Tns profe8tional tramp is a character,
and sometimes you meet with one so
slick that he deserves to beat his way.
The real tramp makes no excuse when
he is discovered. Nine times out of ten
be makes a threat, and as good many
of them go armed it is dangerous to
meddle with them. For if there is
human being who might be expected to
value his life cheaply it is a tramp rather
than a burglar. liow many times have
I had a tramp marl at me with a string
of oaths and wind np by threatening to
put a hole through meP
"Probably tramps will bang on to
most anything, from the brakeshoe to
the wheel box," suggested the reporter.
"No," said a trainman of the Central
Railroad of Now Jersey. "Many people
have erroneous idoas about the habits of
tramps. Personally I never saw a tramp
on a track, but others say tbey have.
Tramps generally poll for an empty box
car, if there is one open. It is carious
to see them search the yard over, inquire
about the departure of trains and
their destination and the stops they make
along the way. Why, Satnrday night,
jutt before leaving for Puiliiimburg, I
went to search my train for tramps, and 1
found an mpty Fall Lrook car full of
them, right next to the traiu shed. Tbey
knew somehow that the car was going
home, and that it went to the end of the
journey. They always aeetn to want to 1
go as far as possible.
"These fellows set tip a whining aud
beirged me tn lt them go along. They
all ha1, sick families, or something jnt
as ba J, to go for, ana one of them said
he r anted to go to PhiUipsburg to attend
the funeral of hi bmtber. I drove them
all ont. None of them km a profeM-ional.
Tbey didn't know one aitotber, and they
all scattered in different directions.
REVENUE FOR ILL TREATHEjrT.
"Of coulee they will gt,t ir.to any car
that is left open, and if there is anything
eatable they always help themselves. If
there isn't an open car they wiii try to
una u car or lmniier. That is more ex
posed, but there are always some vacant
cooks between the piles o boards, and
they make very good bonks. When I
was rnnning on Long Branch train we
had an experience with tramps at Mata-
wan. Wepkksd op a ar of lumber
there. A gang of tramps had learned of
its time of departure and that it was a
through car, which Jost suited them.
They always try to get a 'through leep
er,' like passengers who pay their way.
One of them, who had a wooden leg. they
pnt on top of the lumber in plain sight,
and then they appeared to go away. Of
course the train n.en wouldn't pnt a de
formed man off, and apparently be waa
-the only oot who was going along. But
no sooner did the locomotive signal to
tart than the gang lit npon the lumber
car like a swarm of bees. We went back
and palled them all oat from the crev
ices, and we got cones in return.
"The next night when a freight train
caste along the switch at Matawan wu
open, and the train smashed a lot of cars
on a siding. The tramp were around
later to see ths results, and tbey asked
the agent whether that was Porter's
train. No, said the spent, and they were
very sorry that they bad made a mis
take. "An empty box car or car of lumber
lacking, they look for a car with a good
sill at the end. But not many cars are
built that way now. Where a car has
ladders within reach of the bumpers
tramps will stand on the bumpers and
make a long jonrnsy sometimes in that
position. Hat generally there is nothing
to cling to at the end, and many a pro
fessional will stand between two cars
with a tooios ?se bumper and that oth
foot on the other bnmper. Of course this
is reckloHA, for trains oftmn break in two,
and dr.'Vn goes the tramp and one sec
tion gs over him. I'robabJy more
rramps are kilVd in this way than any
oiher."-NW York Bon. J

The American bark Husper has ar
rived from Kobe, after an excellent pas
sage of twenty-sevea days, with a full
cargo of tea and a graphic account of an
experience with a submarine volcano,
hot sea water and sulphurous gases.
Captain Bodurgren stab's that about
6:43 a. tn. on Oct 24, while living at
anchor in Kobe, the bark received a sud
den shock that caused the masts to strain
and creak. Homo of the standing rig
ging snapped like a piece of twine and
all hands were thrown from their feet
The vessel pitched heavily and caused
one of the croHstreo to break from its
fastenings and fall on dock. The watr
became still an hour later and the bark
pnt to sea.
Early on the morning of Oct 80, when
about seventy-five miles off tho Japan
coaet, the liark was almost thrown on
her beam ends by tb sudden eruption
of a submarine volcano. The water be
came so hot that when a sea was shipped
on duck tho crew took to the rigging.
Tho heat became so intense that the
piu h io the Axi -was melted and the
seams ois-neil.
"Great blasts of hot air with a strong
sulphurons smeii," said the captain ew
tcrday, "would come np from the break
ing surface of the ocean and almost suf
focate us for the moment Tueu th
membrane of the noetrils became irri
tated, causing ns all to have a fit of
sneering. This phenomenon laatod for
several hours. I bv h4 all I want of
the Jspan side for some time to come."
