Tramps NAV Ride Free.

Vice President Croker of the South

pany does not propose to make any fight
against the hordes Of tramps who are
beating their way westward on freight
trains. He has arrived at the conclusion
that it is useless to unload these ticket
less tourists. because they get aboard
again in sufficient numbers to overpower
the trainmen. Therefore Mr.. Croker
believes that time can be saved and
bloodshed averted by allowing the tramps
to ride SO long as they are peaceable. No
proclamation to that effect has been is.
sued from the company headquarters,
but it is to be mutually understood that
the trainmen are not to modest the ''ho-

It is likely that the other hines extend

follow the Southern's example in this re-
spect, if they have not already done SO

San Francisco's Polite Mayor Acts the Gall
Innf A r.rinsf His WILL

San Francisco's Polite Mayor Acts the Gal
liant Against His VIII.
Mrs. dc Forest, the lady who declares
her desire and intention to henceforth
walk the earth in pantaloons and other
masculine articles of attire in preference
to those usually considered as proper to
her sex, astonished Mayor Ellert by call
ing upon him at his Office recently. The
mayor, however, was soon relieved of his
fears as to what the visit might portend
by an explanation from the lady which
set him at ease. All she wanted was
that his honor would assure her of inn
munity from arrest, as she was aware
that she had rendered herself liable to
being taken into custody owing to her
popularity of attire.
The modest mayor Dashfully looked
at the floor while the lady explained her
errand, and then assured her that the
chief of police was the official to whom
she should apply.
"Indeedw said the lady. "But where
will / find him?"
"At the old city hall" said the mayor.
"But I'm afraid, said the lady, "that
he will not grant my request unless l
come well recommended-well intro
duced, that is. Now, Mr.. Mayor" and
here the lady smiled very coaxingly,
''would you mind going with me to call
on the chiefY'
"Of course not, madam-that isl
mean to say-why, yes, certainly, GER
tainly."
But as he said it and thought of the
possibilities of the trip down town so
accompanied his honor groaned in spirit,
So few minutes later the mayor was
seen to leave the city hall and start
down town accompanied by lady taste
fully attired in stovepipe hat, creased
pants, Willie boy coat with long tails
and everything else that goes to make
up modern everyday dude. No won

AN ALL ROUND oRAcksmAN.

His Thicvings Cover Wide Field, From
Canned Goods to a Tombstone.
Kansas City has developed one of the
most unique thieves that has yet been
heard of in real life. Several months
ago the police force learned that sneak
thief was making depredations upon eel
lars and pantries and even on outlying
grocery stores, and carrying off canned
goods and such eatables as were not per-
ishable,
There were certain peculiarities about
the robberies that led the police to be-
lieve that they were all done by the same
person, but there was no clew that they
could follow to catch the thief. After
amassing goodly quantity of food on
which to start to housekeeping the thief
began on fuel, and whole carloads were
carried away, each case showing the evil
dences of the food thief. When a full
supply of coal was taken, the thief turned
his attention to furniture and carried
off articles of all kinds, from light chairs
to heavy bedstead with mattresses. An
entire bedroom set was taken from a
house and no trace left The family
was absent for a night, and on their re-
turn they found their room despoiled.
Having furnished his bedroom and
parlors, the depredator set about getting
his kitchen in order, and first an ice
chest was taken from house in Ar
mourdale, and then cooking stove and
kitchen table from house in Rosedale.
BY this time the police were fully alive
to the fact that the stealing was going
on right under their noses, and they be-
gan to talk about the queer thief. This
attention seems to have fattered the
thief, for he signalized his presence next
by carrying off large baseburner stove
from a parlor in Kansas City, Kan,
while the family were spending the even
ing with neighbor. This occurred last
week, and since then it appears that the
man has his furniture, food and fuel for
the winter, for the depredations have
ceased.
Another phase, however, seems to
have broken out, and it is evident that
member of the thief's family has sick
ened and died. A few days ago drug
store was broken into and medicine
taken, and last night the climax was
reached when the thief went to the GEM
etery out on the Quindare boulevardand
carried off a fine tombstone. There is a
talent here that shows the development
Of a system that would beat bank, and
The police are very anxious to make the
of The thief. Cor. st.

THE MIDWINTER FAIR.
1t Will Have an Electrical Tower With
Over 5000 Lights.

It Will Have an Electrical Tower With
Over 5000 Lights.
The Midwinter fair is assured of hay
ing feature that will be quite as
unique as anything seen at Chicago. Il
is to be an electrical tower 266 feet high
and containing lights enough to turn
night into day in Concert valley.
The framework of the tower will be
gracefully constructed and decorated
with over 5000 incandescent lights of
different colors. 1t will be supplied
with an elevator running to height of
900 feet. There will be pavilions on the
ground floor for the use of the public.
Thanking the open space will be four
Moorish paYilions containing four stories
and decorated in oriental celors.
The base of the tower will occupy a
space 30 feet square, while the first gal
lery, so feet from the ground, will have
a seating capacity of 200. Three other
galleries will extend beyond this and
will seat several hundred persons. The
topmost gallery will be within six feet
Of the pinnacle. In it will be a great
searchlight. On the extreme top of the
tower will be placed large gold bali
bearing the emblem of the state-a Cali
fornia bear.
Fully 5000 people can be seated on the
tower at one time, while ON the outer
edge on the circular walk there will be
room for several thousands. There are
eight approaches to the tower, practi-
cally making it open on all sides and
corners.
While the principal object of the tower
Is for lighting purposes, Il will be used
as grand band stand, from which music
will be given throughout the day and
evening. The tower was designed by a
Chicago architect, but all the work on
the structure will be done in San Fran
cisco. When completed, it will cost $780,
000.-San Francisco Letter.

Origin of Tie Fan.

The following Chinese legend accounts
for the invention Of the fan in rather
ingenious fashion; 1.-The beautiful Kan
81, daughter off powerful mandarin, was
assisting at the feast of lanterns, when
she became oyerpowered by the heat. She
was compelled to take off her mask. But
as it was illegal to expose her face she
held her mask before it and gently fut-
tered it to cool herself The court ladies
present noticed it, and in an instant 100
other hands were waving their masks
This was the birth Of the fan. which to.
day takes the place Of the mask III Chi
