A DISSATISFIED TRAMP.
From the Chicago Tribune.

| From the CnNuKO lHuuhus
A gentleman attired in clothes which had
seen better days called at the Tribune
Office on Saturday, with II slip cut from the
paper, and asked to see the editor. When
his request had been complied with, In a
measure he said, with whitening sheer.
'Wot are ye givin' us, young Teller, hey!
Don't you see what you're printing in the
paper? Look here!n and he rendered
the reporter printed scrap, which the re.
porter took between the points Of pair Of
scissors, and scrutinized at respectful
distance.
"This, my friend" said the reporter to the
representative of the Hendrick b. Wright
interest "this, my friend, seems to be an in.
teresting item about an impecunious gentle
man in Winona, Mimi, who weeded a Gu
cumber-bed for his dinner and sawed a
cord Of wood for his supper, and whose de-
meanor so impressed the woman Of the
house, that she at once wrote an account of
the affair to the Winona, Republican. Are

items like that, which are only
calculated to increase the evils Of con,rac-

impression once gets abroad that us fellows
are in the habit of wedding the cowcum-
bers upon a thousand beds, and making
saw-mills of ourselves for the sake Of Our
board, we'll be ruined. That's what's the
matter. If you want to find reading that
will interest your readers and benefit
the struggling poor just you give them
some stories about the disguised dukes and
Italian marQuises and tramps, who were
given square feed Of roast chicken andice
cream, with fifteen cent cigars and a nip Of
good whisky as grace after meal, and who
fifteen weeks afterwards, left their generous
benefactors $4,000. That's the sort Of lit
eraturs you fellows want toprint. Your
readers cry for it, and the farmers St on

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. /, 1919.

WASHINGTON, ID. g., Oct !, 1879.
The latest and most thorough sensation
here is the report about Tilden's expressions
of dissent at the doings of the Southern
Democratic leader. The first intimation of
this came out in local paper here. 1t was
then taken up and telegraphed all over the
country. TWAS next followed by denials
and explanations, and finally it has got into
a muddled state so that every one is left in
the glorious position of being at liberty to
judge for himself whether to believe the
story or not.
Now, l have word to add to this
gossip which is authentic. 1t comes from
man who saw Mr.. Tilden last spring, and
subsequently told me the substance OF his
conversation, but with the injunction of
secrecy. But this late gossip, my authority
thinks is authorized indirectly by Mr..
Tilden, and so now he removes the i'll
junction Of secrecy from what he reported
to me, only concealing his name. He brought
to Mr.. Tilden's attention the fact that some
bitter opposition appeared to crop
out inthe South among the leaders. among
the Brigadiers, you mean,". interrupted Mr..
T. with his peculiar smile. "Ihave aword
to say about them," he continued. ut is
this; The Southern leaders, who wink at
the crimes Of ignorant law breakers, who
refuse justice to all who do not agree with
them, will lose power and influence, and be
Of small account in the next campaign
Their methods are not Democratic, but
worse than that for our purpose, they are
inimical to the Northern idea, and must
cease or the Northern Democracy will break
and 90 the way it did in 1876" "Then,
said this gentleman, "am ! to understand
that you do not want the Democratic nomi.
nation and that the reason you don't wan,
it is that you would be defeated" "Not
exactly that" said Mr.. Tlden. "But this
will say. The Southern Brigadies, as you
call them in Congress, have it in
their power to elect me or defea,
me in advance. What they will do is q
problem upon which the country is hang
ing anxiously. II they pursue the course
they seem to have marked out, shall moi
want the nomination. So you see ! shall
not be prepared to say whether I want tn,
nomination until late in the next session O
Congress perhaps very late, and that is al

therefore that Mr. Tilden is sincere in hi
latest utterance to the effect that he is no
laboring for the Presidential nomination
but solely 10 kill off Tammany, TOR tina

A DOG IN HIS OWN DEFENSE
Lonlnn Tela-raph


Avcrse from being convicted for grave
misdemeanor and suffering the penalties Of
the law, dog belonging to one Theodore
Gordon, of Shepherd s-bush, has played a
sensible part. 1t had been taken before
Mr.. Paget on the serious accusation Of bit
ing lads pantaloons, and the evidence on
the charge Of ferocity was going hard
against it, when, the creature entered the
court. Immediately compromising the
situation, it jumped upon the magistrate
desk, and, in lieu Of a speech for the de-
Tense, fondled the representative Of al Of
Tended justice; then settle down quietly
upon chair, where its impeachabic be-
havlor during the remainder Of the case SC
wrought in its favor that in place of being
dangerous, it was declared playful, and
liberated without even the necessity Of find
ing bail 1t is evident that, like Artemus
Wards kangaroo, the Shepherd's-bush
mas.itf was extremely intelligent. Had il
bitten the magistrate or worried the usher,
or. even barked at the spectators who
thronged TIE court, it might have met with
the direst fate. But the dog knew that
there was q time tor all things, and that in
the Hammersmith court an affable, en-
gaglng manner would be preferable. In
reviewing the conduct Of this thoughtful
animal, one is almost tempted TO regret that
it cannot Undue some of the lords of crea-
ton with equal segacity. If some of them
only knew when 10 be quiet, great stel
would be gained.
