GORMANS
GRAND DEPOT


He was dirty and disreputable, and, as
he sat on an ash barrel up on Monroe av-
euue last evening just about dusk, it was
easy to see that he was mad. His hands
clutched at an imaginary foe and his lips
muttered all che swear words which are in
the vocabulary of the old time tramp.
A short distance from him, on another
ash barrel, sat another tramp, even more
dirty and disreputable than the first, if
that were possibility. He was munching
something from ont of a paper bag that he
held in his hand, and was seemingly at
peace with himself and all the world. The
first tramp shot evil glances at him out of
his bleary eyes, and TO the person who
cared to listen it was soon evident that the
curses he was spreading about with such a
prodigal mouth were all directed at the
second.

man who was passing.
