TWO FROM The SOUTHLAND
Swarthy Joseph Yanno and His
Pretty South Carolina Girl Wife.
They Tramped All the Way From the
That He Might Find Work.

Sanitary Officer Frank had a couple of
queer callers at his office in police head
quarters yesterday afternoon. They were
a low browed, clumsy and swarthy Italian,
named Joseph Yanno, about thirty yea ars
of age, and his American wife, a South
Carolina country girl, seventeen years
OF age.
The Italian in badly broken English in
formed Mr.. Frank thathe had been working
on a farm in the old South State. Having
been thrown out OF employment, he and his
girl wife had tramped 20 Washington in
quest Of better luck. They were entirely
destitute and covered with dust as a result
OF their long journey over turnpikes and in
box-cars
The girl had a sweet childish face, and
We're she properly clad would be quite
attractive. Her sunny hair was diSheveled
and her garments soiled
Are your parents alivc?' asked the
sanitary officer
Dad is dead was the girls reply,
but mann is living"
She cXpIa ned that she had met the homely
Sicijau while he was working in the ''cot-
ton fields nd corn OF far away Dixie, and
he had won her simple heart by his broken
English pleadings. She appeared per
fectly willing TO follow her dark-skinned
husband wherever he might lead
Mr. Frank sent the couple to a nearby
restaurant for their dinners, and re-
questcd them to return after they had
finished their repast. This they failed
TO do Perhaps the huS band thought
the officer was going to deprive him of his
girl wife
Il VIII bet something pretty" said Mr.
Amiss, clerk in the sa nitary office, that
The next we hear from Yanno and his bride
they VIII have a hand organ, and The poor
girl w!Il be doing the collecting act while
the Italian turns the crank"
