TRAMPS IN CALIFORNIA,

They Are Not Welcome Even to Pass
Through Capistrano.
San Juan Capistrano, true to it's name
like most of our southern California
settlements, is Spanish tainted, says
the Los Angeles Herald. Its aspect,
yellow and dead, is picturesque indeed,
and many romance has begun fir
tation with fancy through contem-
platlon of her scared adobe structures
quilt a century since by the good
padres. Capistrano, too, is proud of
another of her attributes in the person
of grandson of Granada, who, with
turkey gobbler ostentation, guards the
town and it's treasures. This guardian,
to be sure, is just a plain constable,
but that rather commonplace title is
loaned deal of dignity as it reposes
on this dignitary's breast. Through
the precincts watched over by this
careful eye each afternoon a train
passes, occasionally bringing into Cap
lstrano strangers, upon whom assur-
ances OF welcome are seldom heaped,
Tor even the naturally indolent spurn
those back-door boarders, who, as a
sacrifice to their bohemian love of the
dolce far, niente," have chosen a life
OF anything but labor. Those unwel-
come guests, ,piqued, of course, at the
chilliness' of their reception, think to
journey on--a condition that grants
Caplstrano's cOnstabulary the oppor-
tun1ty to star, and, be assured, he fully
avalls himself of it. He is hospitable
fellow and has decided aversion to
the sight of any one hurrying away
with ruching of ruffled feelings mis-
adjoining his throat. Those who would
be off his strong arm assists from the
perches selected to- be a means of
flight. And SO it was that one sunny
afternoon, when two disrespectful
travellers, remaining motionless, did
not even alight from the train to do
homage to the constable and his
hacienda Che only happened to spy
them after the engineer had pulled
wide the throttle) his blood dubbed,
and in twinkling he was aboard the
train tugging at the bell cord that
commands the engineer to stop. The
man at the lever obeyed instanter and
jumped from his cab to learn: just why
that command was given. Encounter
ing the person who had sounded the
alarm, he asked:
"'Who stopped the train?"
II did," answered the addressed.
"And for what?"
There's hoboes on the brake
beams" -jr
Perhaps the train was late; at any
rate there must have been reason for
the strength of the closing address, de-
livered with fine oratorical effect by
the engineer.

The lynching Of six Afro Americans in
Texas recently by a mob composed
mostly of Americans is to be de-
plored, notwithstanding the horrible
crime they are alleged to have commit
ted. If the accused were guilty of the
commission of the foul murders, it should
have been dete, mined by court of law.
Just when tho North is doing SO much to
suppress lynching it seems too bad that
