An educated tramp-such, In brief il the oharac-
ter which the reporter Of this paper met with yes
terday evening at Lieutenant Skippons Police STA
ton while going his usual rounds In quest OF items.
An educated tramp Is indeed no rdrd avis, but
when possessed Of history so comprehensive as
the present subject then the same becomes worthy
of more than passing notice. John A. Mcdowell Is
the name, fictitious or otherwise, of the tramp In
question. He turned up at the station In condi-
ton sometimes termed "hnlf seas over" but his
spirit of loquaci,y was in q most vigorous state.
Notwithstanding this, he was quite unwilling TO
give his name, and y was only, by chance

reporter and the station keeper, who soon became
an interested spectator. something OF the mans his

himself, was fora number Of years. prominent

which lie recounted IN q most brilliant manner
leaves no doubt on this score. subsequently he
can individual, whose name unfortunately escaped
the reporters memory. In gay Paris Mcdowell
remained for over year and az that place Is dated
the sole cause. He speaks French huenuy and his
familiarity with French customs, institutions and
Gated tramp. Mcdowell has wandered also in his
own country from Maine to Mexico, and has q store
OF experiences that would make volumes OF Inter

Mr.. Rudolph Uhlmer and DR.. A. b. Shekell, two
wellknowu residents OF this town, will leave In a
day or two for q trip down the river. The amateur
Bohemans propose TO take good Whit of salt mir
ere returning TO their respective homes. The Doc

no such interview had taken place, and that his
statement In the Washington post was untrue, The

some incorrect statements he had felt II due TO Mr.
Hubbell and himself to have them corrected, Mr..
