Spruce showed good Judgment at this
early stage Of the game by remaining in
closer to the shore and avoiding the rough
water. Ethelwynn was compelled to mako
q tack more than Spruce before she got
around the first mark, but she got there three
minutes ahead Of the challenger. On the
next leg 1t was a broad reach, on which
point of sailing the Britisher was said to
be at her best. But she did not crawl up
on her rival. On the contrary she lost
flfty-four seconds.
Then tho boats headed for home to COM
plete the first round. This leg was q close

wynn six seconds, and when they started
on the first leg OF the second round there
was only three minutes and fifty eight Sec

to the southwark again and Spruce came

Tramps in the Counties.

With the advent Of summer the tramp
becomes conspicuous in the rural districts.
He is no longer driven into the towns Tor
shelter and subsistence, but leaves the rail
road and feeds upon the fat of the land in
the interior. Frequent complaints reach the
authorities at the county seats OF depreda-
tions by the "hobos," and sheriffs and con
stables are at their wits end TO capture the
feet footed vagrant, or TO punish him alter
he is caught.
At least one farm in Maryland has been
an underground station, SO to speak, for
tramps during several years IL lies east Of
the city, adjacent to the railroad, and It's
owner is completely at the mercy of his uE'
welcome guests. They sleep in his barn,
feed upon the products of the farm, go and
come at will, and defy the authorities al
most as effectually as they do the helpless
people from whom they demand food, or
take il without leave, as occasion may re-
quire.
Serious reflection upon the subject must
lead to the conclusion that drastic measures
are needed to clear the State Of this lncreaS
ing menace TO agricultural communities. II
is useless for the individual farmer to deny
the vagrant food and TO stand upon his rights
as an American citizen, for a few nights later
he may repent of his folly while gazing into
Lne glowing BmDeTS Oh MS DOus6 VI ualh'
With the tramp ranging at will through the
counties the freemans home is no longer his
castle, and he may not order the hobo
from its portal unless he fears not to dare
the wrath of an army Of men as ruthless as
robbers and powerful as the feudal lords OF
old.
AS an example of what may be done TO
abate the tramp nuisance bill presented In
the Massachusetts, Legislature few weeks
ago is suggestive. 1t was proposed TO buy
State farm of 1000 acres in the northern
part of the Commonwealth. The land is a
swamp and heavily timbered, and the bill
provided that tramps arrested in any part Of
Massachusetts and convicted of vagrancy
should be sent TO this farm. The tract was
to be drained, redeemed and put TO profit
able agriculture by tramp labor. Each va
grant caught in the counties was to be SEN
fenced to hard labor for one year, and those
taken in cities were TO be sent up for TWO
years.
Perhaps the farm idea is not 80 well suited
to Maryland, but there is nothing in the way
of setting the tramp TO work on the public
roads, and one of the tasks of the next Leg
islature should be comprehensive law deal
ing with this subject in way to relieve the
towns and cities in winter and the farms IN
summer from the terrorizing presence Of the
tramp-BGlt0 Herald.
