English Tramps and Their Babies

On arriving at York we went at once
to Warmgate, the kiphouse district, and
picked out the filthiest one we could find.
The inmates were principally in pairs.
Each moocher had his July (wife), and
each little kid had his little Moll isis
teri. These children are the very off
spring of the road, and they remind me
very much of monkeys. Yet one has to
feel sorry for them, since they did not
ask for life and yet are compelled to see
its meanest and dirtiest side. Their moth
ers love them, when they are not drunk,
and when they are their fathers have to
play mothers, if they are not drunk
themselves. Never in my life have I
seen more serio comic situation than
in that York kiphouse, where two tramps
were rocking their babies to sleep

A MONSTER FACTORY.
Government Cigarette Works, Seville, EN-
ploy 1000 Women and Girls.

Government Cigarette Works, Seville, EN-.
ploy 1000 Women and Girls.
One Of the sights of Seville which nc
tourist misses is the cigarette factory,
in which the government employs near
ly 1000 women and girls. The showing
about of visitors is accordingly looked
upon as regular source of income by
the porter and matrons. After getting
permission to enter you are placed in
charge Of matron, who shows you
through her own department and then
passes you ON to another, and so on, I'M
til your stock Of pesetas and half pesetas,
put aside for fees, is exhausted.
These matrons accompany the visitors,
not in order to prevent the girls from
flirting with them-nothing could do
that-but to see that no tobacco, plea
dura or cigarettes may disappear. Be
fore entering each room bell is rung
to warn the girls, who are in great dis
habille on account of the sun, to put ON
their wrappers, and as the door opens
scores of round arms and pretty shout
ders are seen disappearing, while several
hundred pairs of coal black eyes are
fastened ON you.
The passages are lined with cradles,
and the young girl mothers to whom
they belong implore you with eyes and
hands for penny for the Murillos of
the future lying in them. These girls
are more frank than subtle in their fir
tations. There is not one in the crowd
who will not be Immediately conscious
of mans gaze fixed ON her, nor will
she be the first to turn her eyes away.
Some will wink and even throw kiss
from a distant corner at the rich Inglese
all foreigners are supposed to be
wealthy Englishmen.
They are a merry lot on the whole,
these poor girls, the quickest of whom
make only 2 shillings day, for which
they have to toll 10 to 10 hours. They
are allowed to smoke if they wish, and
they make use of this privilege. They
are remarkably deft at rolling the cigar
cites, but not all seem eager to make as
many as possible, for some are idling
and others are asleep, but no one cares,
as each one is paid according to the
number she twists up, aided only by a
piece of specially made cartridge paper
and a small tin affair on her little finger.

THE DDEvll,s MOOSE
a Gigantic Flesh Eating Plant That II
Found In Nicaragua.

Carnivorous plants are certainly
among the curiosities of the vegetable
world. The poetical and religious Lin
naus, who had occasion to study the fly
catching peony, found, in his astonish-
ment, no other name to bestow upon il
than this-Miraculum natur8 prodigy
of nature). Since the illustrious Swedish
botanist, the mechanism of carnivorous
plants has been well studied, and par
Scularly by Darwin, who has devoted to
these plants Il remarkable work They
ire usually Of small dimensions, and do
not attain the size of one described in
the "Bolletino del Naturalist. -
M. Fabiano Carlo tells there Of gil
gantic carnivorous plant that has been
discovered ON the shores Of Lake Mica
ragua by naturalist named Dunstan.
He discovered this curious plant in the
following manner: Travelling with his
dog, he heard the animal give vent to
cries of pain. He advanced and found
his dog held by three black, sticky bands,
under which the skin was chafed till it
bled. These bands were the branches of
new carnivorous plant, which Dunstan
calls the land octopus. /" The branches
are flexible, polished, black, without
leaves, secreting a viscous fluid and fur
nished with great number Of suckers
by which they attach themselves to their
victims. 1t might almost be believed to
be an octopus transformed into plant.
To extricate his dog Dunstan tried to
cut the branches, and succeeded, though
not without difficulty, and after having
his hands severely injured by the ten
tacles of the Gland octopus. As may
be realized, observations under these con-
ditions We're not convenient to make,
and the naturalist was able to get few
facts concerning this odd plant. He
proved the presence of numerous suckers,
and found that the fetid odor of the
black sticky fluid that covers the branch
es serves to attract prey to the plant. He
also was able to note similarity Of char
acter with other carnivorous plants.
For instance, the Gland octopus" aban-
dons its prey after having sucked out the
nutritive elements. The natives of Cen
trail America call this singular plant by
the appropriate name of "the devils
moose. Paris Cosmos.

An English Couple Who Instruct In TIN
Art of Being Fine.


Art of Being Fine.
A new profession, for "gentlefolk"
has been discovered in London by two
impecunious members of the class. They
have discovered that there is livelihood
to be obtained by polishing off" the
nouveaux riches and others whose man
ners "have not that repose which stamps
the caste of We're de We're" They are q
well born, well bred married couple
who are still sufficiently young to be
adaptable. They have been used to the
ways of the leisure class, and they are
clever enough to teach them. Anything
from the cure of the cockney accent to
the proper way to entertain a duke is
taught for consideration.
The wife describes her share of the
work thus: 81 generally" she says,
undertake to engage the services of all
know what is what and can give judi
cious and useful hints to their mistress
also manicurists, teachers of department
and sometimes teachers of elocution ]
have cured one very bad case of mere
outward vulgarity in three weeks for 10
guineas, and have corrected cockney
accent in three mornings for guineas,
while, ON the other hand, certain city
man, who never aspired to anything
better than heavy British dinners, Fri
days to Mondays at Brighton, and Man
sion House balls until he married the
daughter of west end restaurant man
ager--she knew nothing of life beyond
her own narrow sphere-gave us carte
blanche to make fine folks of them.
Not much could be done for him be-
yond keeping him quiet, but she lent
herself to our process. Now they have a
very pretty place in Hampshire and en-
terrain some rather nice people in the
summer. We ourselves received 10C
guineas for our advice, but the husband
must have spent over $4,000 in adopt.
ing our hints as to mode of living, and
he tells Us that what he has got for it is
worth double as much. "--Philadelphia

DIR. Wilde's Queer Will.

By the terms of the will of one Dr..
Wilde of st. Ives parish, Huntingdon
shire, England, his trustees were direct
ed to expend 600 in the purchase of a
piece of land in st. Ives, the annual rent
of which was to be set aside for the pur-
chase of six Bibles at cost of shil-
lings each. To decide who shall have
