A Memphis writer introduces to the
public q strange population who are
counted as residents of that city, al
though most of them were born on the
Mississippi or one Of the streams empty
ing into it, and have never lived on dry
land. These people occupy floating
settlement Of house boats. The boats
are sometimes named, and many of them
are neatly painted, and show signs of
comfortable furnishings, Judging from
lace curtains at the windows and pic
lures to be seen hanging on the walls Of
the interior. The colony is made up of
representatives from twenty-odd States
drained by the Mississippi and its trib-
utaries.
Moored side by side, 100 boats were
counted by the writer, who learned that
some of the families began their naviga-
tion of the river as far north as Mon
tana. 1t is not fixed population, for,
although most of the boats have been
anchored at Memphis long time, the
absence Of one Of the families is noted
now and then, and the inquirer is told
that the head of the house has changed
his habitat to New Orleans or some
other river city. The house boat owner,
Of course, pays no rent; to escape it he
took to the water. His food consists
chiefly of fish, at catching which he is
an adept He knows better than any
body else where to find the cat the
buffalo, the perch, and innumerable
other fish Drift wood serves him for
fuel, and clothes, tobacco, spirits, and
few necessaries, are secured by an oc-
casional days labor as q 'longshoreman,
roustabout, or farm hand.

How He Saved Money.

A newspaper reporter who has welded
q pencil for various journals for nearly
a score of years, told an interesting
story about himself to party of con-
genial friends, the other evening, that
will bear repeating.
He said that during the earlier por-
tion of his journalistic career he found
it almost impossible to lay aside any
money, notwithstanding the fact that
he was then a single man and earned a
frst-class salary.
Try as he would, the money he re-
ceived on Saturday for the weeks work
would slip away from him, and when
Monday came around there remained
nothing for him to do but to strike the
cashier.
Finally the cashier became tired of
being hit so early in the week, and the
reporter was warned that he would
have to give it up.
Il managed it in one way and an
other" said the writer, but after
time my friends also became tired, and
1 found myself in many embarrassing
positions, until I finally hit ON Pc
culiar but altogether satisfactory plan.
And what was that p he was asked.
well, it was simply this: When I
got my money Saturday afternoon L
went over to the post-office, purchased
registered letter. put a portion of my
salary in it and then addressed it to
myself at the Office.
"Of course the letter was not de-
ivered until Monday, and in that way !
managed to get along all right and f.
nally to save some money"
