Bought a Tramp's Memoirs
, Buffalo Commercial.

From the Buffalo Commercial.
 The audacity and wit of the American tramp are proverbial, and undoubtedly they often save him from harsher treat msnt than his merits and demerfts en- title him to. country house near Buff falo recently received a call from one Of these species. The man was dirty, unkempt, and unmistakably a tramp. He also bore the signs of addiction to strong drink and general worthlessness. The humorous touch that finished the picture as he came up with a genial smile and a good deal of manner, was a round and fresh clerical collar, which had been lifted very recently from the premises of the neighboring college.
 Madam he said, "I am a missionary but lately returned from long years of service in China and other heathen lands. For the sake of health and re- taxation am renewing my acquaintance with nature and my native land in this unconventional manner. To help pay my way am selling for the mers nomi- nal price of 15 cents this record of my experiences"
 The fellow made his speech with a look in his eyes that showed his enjoy ment of the game. The volume was a dirty castaway, rescued from an ash barrel, but still "The Life of the Rev. So-and- So, Many Years Missionary in the Far East"

No Fun to be q Baby NOW.

'.You ask says Kansas editor,
..if we had the ehance would we be a
sweet, innocent babe again Not if
we are intimately acquainted with
ourseli, we would not. A sweet in
noceut babe this hot weather has a
rough and unsatisfactory time Ma,
ture has not seen lit to endow him
with the power of speech or locomo-
tion, and he is al the mercy OF every
person who has a fool notion that he
or she knows what a baby wants.
The baby doesn't, know himself. and
the result is that he simply takes his
chances. He labors under the I'M
precision that he lives to eat, and, un-
like all other animals, he has no dis
elimination of taste or appetite. A
tack or piece of glass appears to
his infant mind as nutritious as spring
chick or new milF Unfortunately,
his elders only possess a few degrees
more sense than the baby himself.
Few of them think he is ever thirsty.
or if they do they seem to suppose
that he would seorn anything but
warm milk, while, as a matter of fact,
he is thirsty as mule and wants
water, straight water They think it
must amuse him to make jumping
jack ont of him and ehurn him mp
and down like an old fashioned dash
er until his little eyes hang out like
saueers and he casts the curdled con
tents of his stomach out into the at
mosphere. They don't figure that he
suffers from hot weather, but bind
him up with swaths and pins until
he is melted with fcrvept heat He
yells of course but that is all the
good it does him His maternal an
cestor smooths his protest with C
torIa' and makes his last state worse
than his first Thank the Lord, we
will never have to be sweet, limo
cent babe againl We have no fault
to find with this old world and would
like to stay with it as long as we can,
bnt we would rather be an aged man
with scarcity of hair and rheu-
matte knee and have some say abont
the way things are done than a bald
headed, toothless victim OF injndi-
cious elders"

boat No. has proved herself to the naval
officers not only TO be Il remarkable craft,
but also probably the most speedy in the
world when continuous running is taken
into consideration. Tho true official fig
urcs on the run give her speed of only
S.72 to 2S.7S knots, but it was quite ap-
parent to those on board that the boat was
not forced to her limit and that she might
be rated as 30 knot boat if in the hands
of a trained crew, for at no time was the
steam limit of 225 pounds reached, nor did
her propeller reach 400 revolutions per
minute, while there was every indication
that she was equal to much above this
