What It Really Means,

Did you ever think what it really means
to be a tramp No home, no friends,
no work, no chance, nobody in all the
wide world to care whether you live, or
die in the cutters like dog. No heaven
for such vags to inherit; no decent grave
to hide them out of sight; no opportunity
to be anything, and no hand stretched out
to give the greeting or the good.by Of
love. Nobody to feel an interest in you,
whether your bones ache from cold or
your skin cracks with fever. No spot in
all the world to call your own, not even
the mud wherein your wandering foot
step leaves its fleeting mark; no prospect
ahead, and no unbroken link to bind you
to the past. Aname like curse to blight
every hope Of manhood, and reputation,
like ball and chain on your leg, to him
der the way to any good accomplishment.
]. tell you, when we sit right down to 1t,
and figure out what it really means to be
a tramp. | guess we will not find it so
easy to withhold piece of bread and .

Brutal Policemen I'm Russia.

oTUC8I FOhCenCO kSu8810s
Ishau never forget the first brutal ex.
hibition Of the kind WITNESSED ON Rus
sian soil It was on the docks at Baku.
As the little Caspian steamer moved up
to the wharf q swarm Of ragged porters
were seen struggling for position where
they could pounce on the passengers bag
gage. Gaunt, hungry looking and clad in
rags, they seemed like the very off scour-
ing Of the world Standing out in bold
relief against them were q number of bur
ley policemen. The chief duty Of the
latter seemed to be to abuse the former,
which they did in most unwarrantable
manner.
The bluecoats did no artistic and fin
ished tapping with the locusts, like the
members Of the Broadway squad, but they
struck the poor, half starved wretches
squarely In the face with clenched fist
and kicked them in the stomachs. The
burly policemen seemed to take wanton
pride in smashing the poor ragged devils
In the face and in kicking them In danger
GUS places with their heavy topboots.
As picture of brute force unbridled,
gloating over defenseless victims, 1t beats
anything I ever saw.
Il seems incredible to an Anglo-Saxon
that human beings could ever be so thor
oughly crushed and cowed as to submit
meekly to such inexcusable brutality as
the lower class Russians do. One after
another the wretched victims Of police
brutality would go Hmping away, famed
or doubled up by kick, and faces often
streaming with blood Our Russian pas
sengers paid no sort Of attention to the
scene; only In the breasts Of two persons
present, in all that crowd, was aroused
any sentiment Of pity or condemnation,
SO far as could be seen on the surface.
These two exceptions were an English
war correspondent and myself. Thomas

One Oman Paper Cannot Swallow Depew
as Presidential Candidate.
OMAHA, Neb., June 1.-The Bee of
Monday contains an editorial announc-
ing that the Nebraska delegation to Chi
cago is for Chauncey M. Depew for pres
ident. The Bee warns the delegation
and the Republicans of Nebraska that
in the event of Depew's nomination it
will not support him. Instead of accord
ing support to Depew the Bee will
head an independent Republican
movement in the presidential cleo
ton, which will place before the
people an an+i-monopoly independent Re
publican electoral ticket against the
regular Republican ticket. That the
movement would stand a fair show of
success is reasonable. The Democrats
would support the movement to deprive
the straight Republicans of the electoral
vote of Nebraska. The anti-monopoly
vote of Nebraska is still power in the
state, and the Bee Yields great influence
among the people.

nothing less than that should be allowed
