I HAPPENED to be in the Jefferson
Market Police Court one morning
last week when a seedy, emaciated
palsied old man was vagged' by the
Magistrate for begging on the
Streets" said a long-service New
York detective who was IN Washing
ton on a still hunt the other day. Il
hadn't seen this man for thirty years,
but I thought that I recognized him as
he stood leaning on the rail in front of
the Magistrates desk, and when he went
down for thirty days and stepped back
I spoke to him and found that I WASH t
mistaken in his identity. The sight of
him took me back to the old days when
II SIS Tweed was It in New York, and
Nien the situation in the big town was
such that police officials had a good deal
more intimate knowledge of the doings
Of professional criminals than they have
nowadays. Here's the story that the
sight Of the old Vag recalled to me:
one day in the autumn of 1870 Little
Johnny Hope, probably the most finished
and successful bank burglar who ever
worked a drill in this country, was walk
ing along Sixth avenue enjoying his pa
role and the mellow sunshine. There were
o whole lot of indictments hanging over
him of course, but the indictments didn't
worry Little Johnny for he happened
aicipal administration at that time. AS
re swung along he was accosted by a
Drosperous-loolling man whom he did not
know, although the man addressed him
az Mr.. Hope. Little Johnny took the
stranger into a cafe and asked him
things.
In the first place. how did you know
me-? he inquired of the stranger.
We'll, it appeared that Little Johnny
had been pointed out to the stranger by
a detective who was so shady that he
afterward did time for secretly extend
ing aid and succor to the enemy'-i. e.. a
famous band of New York crooks.
Well, said Little Johnny to the
stranger. I don't suppose you're seeking
my acquaintanceship for the sake Of being
Introduced into society or for the enjoy
ment of my winning ways What's your
graft?
Then the stranger up and told him
Nhat his graft was.
I'm the cashier Of a bank up In the
country said he to Little Johnny Hope.
The directors don't know anything about
it, but I'm short in my accounts. There's
only one way out of 1t. The banku have

girls dormltory dining-room. and proba-
bly, a dozen others about the campus or
in Palo Alto.
Next in Importance in a big way is the
University Press. Here about six stu
dents are employed setting type. They
work from l o'clock in the afternoon to 6
in the evening and earn from $50 to s25,
according to their skill.
Newspaper work is quite factor in col
lege employment. The Call. Chronicle
and Examiner each pay their correspond
ents from sS5 to $40 per month during the
collegiate year. The business agency for
these three papers is held by one stu
dent, who personally delivers them and
makes $25 per month.
One student has boot and shoe repair
shop back OF the gymnasium, from which
he realizes in the neighborhood Of $50 per
month, besides spending about SO per
year for outside assistance.
Next door to the shoe shop is a bicycle
shop, managed by student, who receives
about $50 per month
Equally remunerative are the univer-
sity candy store, and q fruit store in Palo
Alto, both operated by students.
On the campus is a Western Union
Telegraph office and Sunset Telephone
pay station. 1t requires two students to
attend to the duties of the business. and
they make about SIS a month apiece
The Southern Pacific night operator at
the Palo Alto station is a student, and
the company has an agent on the cam
pus. The former receives $50 per month
and the latter a smaller salary and trans
portation.
At Encina Hall, the mems dormitory,
two students act as policemen, receiving
their room free for their services. They
seldom need any deputies, for they are
generally picked according to size or rep
utatton, but not infrequently they are
called upon to earn their salary.
There is also a student clerk in the
Encina office. who receives $40 a month
and his room.
-Four laundries have agencies in Encina
Hall and one at Roble. The agencies are
each worth about Sc a month

: ambitious men and women make
their way through Stanford Uni
verslty are so many monuments to
the ability and perseverance of
young America
There are 1853 students at STAN
ford-690 men and 46S women. Every tenth
person YOU meet on the quadrangle of a
morning earns his entire living at the uni
versity, while every sixth person earns
Il part of his way.
This in itself is q record that few edu-
cstional institutions can equal, but TAX
ing into consideration the men alone it
becomes a record none can surpass.
Probably not over twenty women make
their total expenses on the campus. Of
the $50 men. then, one in every seven
works his entire way through college and
one in every four earns part of his way.
The average expense of the students is
. so per month, considering both the
barb" who spends $50 a month, and the
frat man, who spends $50. The total dis
bursement is therefore $34,59O per month.
Of which S20700 is expended by the go
men. Over $500 is earned each month by
the male students alone, so it is only
little matter Of arithmetic to find that the
men Of Stanford earn upon the premises
practically a seventh of all they spend.
The ways in which this large sum is
earned are varied. The principal source
Of employment at present is the Stanford
University Inn, an interior view Of which
appears above. Here twenty-five men and
one girl are employed. Seven of the men
. work in the kitchen and the remainder
wait on the tables. The inn feeds $50
students at every meal. The employed
students are required to work three hours
per day for their board, which Is valued
at SIS per month; but some earn from 81
TO s. per month overtime.
If a waiter makes a mistake in a meal
check, or drops or breaks a dish. he is re-
CURED to assist in scrubbing out the res
taurant on Saturdays. 1t is needless to
say that every waiter scrubs.
Waiting at table is a favorite method
Of working through college. Eight men
and two girls are employed in Roble, the

A rats tail is wonderful thing. The
great naturalist, Cuvier, says that there
are more muscles in this curious append
age than are to be found in that part of
the human anatomy which is most ad-
mired for its ingenious structure-name-
ly, the hand. To the rat, In fact, its tail
serves as sort of hand. by means of
which the animal is enabled to crawl
along narrow lodges or other difficult
passages, using it to balance with or to
gain hold. 1t is prehensile, like the
tails Of some monkeys By means of 1t
the little beast can jump up heights
otherwise inaccessible, employing 1t as a
pro1ectile spring.
