TRAMPS IN RUSSIA. RELIGIOUS M EDIC ANTS PRO TECTED BY THE CHURCH. ('•lied Vlulmi of Sorrow Tlir.i Never Work. Wenr I’Mlrlted Cloth Inc end tteqtilre m Ureot Ueol of llr.l l.lrr on the reniontrjr. There are two types of tramps In Russia, and they may be classified a* <he authorized and the unauthorized, says the New York Commercial Ad vertiser. The fliat are the so-called religious mendicants, who are protect ed by the church and tolerated by the polhe; the second are the common vag abonds. Jt Is these last who consti tute. from the Russian point of view, ilie tramp problem. The religious beg gars are considered an Inevitable church clues and are taken care of al most as conscientiously as the priests. 'I he common tramps, on the other l.and, are looked upon as a very un necessary burden and ever sime I lie conversion of Russia to Christianity laws have been passed and institutions founded for their suppression and re form. It is estimated that In Kuropean Russia alone they number over 900, 000, and in Siberia their class repre sents an even greater proportion of the population. Their national name among them selves is "Oorloiins" mourners, or victims of grief. The word Is an In vention of their own, but is supposed to come from the Russian word gore, meaning uadness. In Russian proper they are (ailed brodiagl, ir you a-It them why they do not work, and the •treat majority ore perfectly able to do i-o, they reply in the forlornest voire mortal ever heard: "Master I am a Horioiut—a victim of sorrow.” They s-cem to have accepted the philosophy that a certain number of human beings are foreordained to u life or misery and • fulness, and they pose as mem tiers of this class. On many of their passports I saw such expression as "Burned out," "Has lost all his relatives.” "Has no home," "Will die soon," “Is possessed ! genuine tiling, and. had I wished to j (Hva* as 3 Russian, could have bought one any day for 10 rubles.

At heart they are capable of i considerable fun and bolsteronsueas, but they affect a look of despondency, which many of tlmni retain even when off duty. In other itcpeetH they re ! scmble very closet) the ordinary j peasant or inujhlk. They ail have an immense shock of hair, parted In the middle and chopped off roughly at the edges. The face is generally cov- j ered with a huge beard, which gives | l hem a backswoodsman look not al- j ways Indicative of their character. In 1 America, for Instance, they would be taken by tramp* for "bt nslris,' but, In their way, they are Just as clever and sharp as the hobo who would laugh at them. Indeed, 1 know of no hobo who can equal them In facial trickery anti pose, anil wherever tti 1« Is the neces sary qualification for successful beg ging they arc pa»»t masters. Their clothes are Invariably rough nti I patched, and If by some ehanee they get u good suit It Is pawned or sold im mediately. The usual peasant shirt or idolise take the place of a coal, and die trousers are tucked Into die bool* also In pesetaut fashion. A teapot hangs at the belt, and a bundle, con taining all their possession*. Is slung over the shoulder. Thus ih<y tramp about the country from village to vil lage, year In and year out, and are al wujs distinguishable from the faet dial on meeting a GoHpodlnn. or any one else of whom they can beg. off come their greasy caps, down go their great shock)' lipads, and they say: 'Itadl Krista.” When tramping on the highway they average about fifteen miles a day. but a ureal many never make over live. One old man on the "Kursk road,” be tween Tula and Orel, told me that hn was satisfied If he covered three versts a day a ver«l is t wo t birds of a mile and lie expected that It would take hint the entire autumn and part of the win Hospital and Cemetery Not Far Apart.

I hate often heard hint say In asking for alms, j “If will help you out above." and hi* bumble friends aecmid pleased to b« tints assured. Men predominate In the “Oorioun" class, but In no other country that I have visited are there do many women and families on tramp. They ire all mixed up together, men, women and children, anil no great effort Is made to keep even the families Intact. I was told by tramps that In the peasants' . cabins there Is very little separation even between the peasants and the vagabonds, and on very eoltl tilghu they all curl up In a heap on the top* of the great plies of masonry which serve them as stove*. In large cities they live lit lodging houses and night shelters. In St. Petersburg then** places are found mainly In what I* called the "Slcnnu'a." about live blocks behind the Ku/,.m cathedral. '‘IMPERIOUS CESAR." "Pr.nl Mint 'luriietl to t tljT' linWs't HUiiiI I lie *.t*i»i|iill*>e». "You would not think It possible, said an old actor to a Washington Star writer recently, "for a little festive | mosquito to break up the performance of one of Shakespeare's greatest trag '- , dies and turn It literally Into a tarce, , would you? Well, such Is the fact. You remember Ned' Buckley, ilmi t you? I’seil to be leading man In 'be j Boston theater; also with Booth and | Barrett. One rather warm night In August, IR79, ‘Neil' took a snap coni- , pany out to a town in western Massa- j i htisetts to do ‘.luliu Caesar.' It was not a sumptuous performance by any means, but still li was good enough for the audience. Buckley played Caesar and did it well. If I am not mistaken I'Tederh k Hryton was the Marc An- ; i tony. It became so hot before (lie per- j ! fortnanee had fairly begun that the windows In the rear of the stage had | to be opened. It was not long ls*fore the stage was swarming with mosqui toes, they being attracted, no doubt, by the strong lights on the stage. Buck- , \ ley bail on a pair of white tights and 1 he discovered at the last moment that . there were several small holes In the legs. So lie got it piece of billiard ! chalk and whitened over the tights where they hail burst. Well, the play , ran along smoothly enough until tTi<*• : time came for Marc Antony to bury Caesar and not praise him. Poor Ju- : i Hits was lying on the tiler and Just as | Mare began the oration he felt the in fernal little pests getilng in their turt talizlng work. Buckley always tie- [ dared that they were educated. They just picked out the spots where he had used the chalk. lie stood the agonv as long as he could, then he began murdering his tormentors. Several times did Julius slap his limbs, and every time lie slapped be grunted w-itti relief lie kept slapping his limbs | and grunting all through the oration, the audience shouting with laughter all the while. The audience Just about | knew the cause of the trouble, because , they were doing some slaughtering on i their own account. Buckley stood the agony as long as he could, then he ' gave Anthony a tip and the oration ! was cut remarkably abort. The audl- j enee was tickled Itntnen elv and In- 1 slated upon the actors going before tin- 1 curtain several tlmps.
