TRAMPS.
THEY INFESTED NEWPORT NEWS FOR
ABOUT TWO WEEKS.
Post ONCE Robbery and Comment ON the
Location Of the Buiiding Efforts to
Have It Changed.

NEWPORT NEWS, VA. March d.
(SpecIal.)-wh tramps should want to
come to Newport News at this time is
a question which I cannot answer, but
that they are here Is fact which cannot
be disputed. The town was full OF them
about the time the work OF repairing
the steamship New York was commenced,
but long before the ship went away the
tramps had disappeared. They remained
perhaps two weeks. and during that time
many robberies were committed. the CHIEF
Of which was the despoiling Of Postmas-
ter fuckers safe. which contained about
1000 in stamps and money, all OF which
the thieves carried away. Now that they
are here again no one will be surprised to
hear that some other TIL has been tapped.
The post-office robbery gave rise TO much
severe comment concerning the action Oh
the government In selecting so undesirable
a location for the transaction OF postal
business. nor have the complaints by any
mears died out yet. Every now and then
something occurs to call fresh attention.
to the fact that the office should have
been established In some other part OF the
town.

The interview published in the pIsp

The interview published In the Dispatch
and many other papers on Sunday out
lining the defence Of Colonel Breckin
ridge was a scoop" the value Of which
all enterprising newspaper men will ap.
preciate.
Mr.. w. f. Christian, formerly Of this
city. but now Of New York, was the cor.
respondent who succeeded In unlocking
the lips OF Colonel Breckenridge and get.
ting statement Of his purposes. when in
the course Of the pending trial 1t comes
to be his time to be heard. To be sure
the interviewer only claims to have talked
with an intimate friend OF the Colonel.
but It Is known now that Colonel Breck-
inridge himself in the presence Of his
counsel gave out the points and revised
Mr.. Christians manuscript before It was
put into the hands Of the United Press.
The interview was exceedingly readable
In the form that It was published, but
It will have an added value now that It II
known that It came direct from Colonel
Brcckinridge.

When man claims to have lived JOG
years we may e1Deca him to claim
almost anything. but we must express
our disbelief in that part of the Tennes-
see centenarian's story recorded in our
last issue) which represented that that
venerable man had not only been blown
UP in an explosion and had his skull
crushed and escaped with his l!fe. but
had been struck by lightning and come
of little the worse therefor. That Light
ming must have been chained. 1t could
not have had full play. Hereabouts the
diluted lightning which is used for street.
car and Illuminating purposes is so strong
that he who gets struck by It rarely
lives TO be centenarlan.
II we'll proved we should reluctantly
admit that perhaps the Tennessee genius
lived to be l05 years OF age, but
we should have to draw the line on
the story that he had once been struck
by lightning and survived. Even n nom
conducting Indla-rubber man could hardly
be expected TO make such a record as
that.

In other words. at the very time when
thousands Of people wish to use its cars
its cars DO not run. The company. can
not wholly remedy tbs difficulty. but II
can reduce it very greatly by providing
little bridges which will enable the cars
to Jump the hose without touching the

BAD LOCALITY.

the most dlsreputabe quarters OF the city,
frequently necessitates the running OF
gauntlet Of rough men. many OF whom are
idle and worthless negroes in order to
reach Il. Indeed. as everybody here well

OF parade-ground for that class OF hui
