LONDON, November 1s.-The British

the vicinity of Minhia, and captured the
city, after three hours firing from the float

British advance to Mandalay, as the forts
at Ava, twelve miles from the Burmese
capital, are only slight structures in COM
parison with those at Minhia.

Opinions of 400 Tramps.


A curious document was found in the
possession of James Bray, tramp, who
was killed at Plymouth. He had a long
roll OF paper, and on this paper were the
names OF over 400 other tramps with
whom he had come in contact during his
travels. Bray made it point to inter
view all the knights of the road as to their
present condition and what led them to
take the road. Opposite each mans
name was his answer. One hundred and
seventy-seven said that they were out of
work because there was no work to do
Three hundred and seven were in favor
OF free trade andagainst high protective
tariff. Thirty-seven said said that a high
tariff meant protection for American
Worklngmen, and that their poverty was
due to an overindulgence in strong drink.
Over one hundred voted Cleveland's adj
ministration failure so far as making
times better, and two hundred and fif-.
teen put the blame on Congress for not
establishing free trade, and thereby max
ing markets for the productions of Amer
lean labor andmachinery. For the next
Presidency sixteen tramp printers pre-
dicted the election of John Sherman, and
one hundred and four "New York"
tramps believed Hill would be elected
