"A NO. l."
The Prince of the Wandering Hobo
Tribe.

"a No. l." the most celebrated tramp in
the world was in Birmingham last night.
The peculiar sobriquet he bears was given
him by Richard X. Fox, of the Police Ga
zette, who at the same time presented him
with medal for tramping from the Pa
cifc to the Atlantic coast in eleven days and
six hours.
This strange spec men of the leisurely side
of humanity has since 1885 travelled in ell
water. Under ordinary circumstances this
would cost about s12.O 0O however, "a No. T.
has made it at the extensive outlay of $40.
He has Travelled to Europe seven times,
was twice in Alaska, three times in Cuba,
twice in South America, three times in
Honolulu, once in Australia and Asia and
in every town of Importance from Panama
to Winnipeg. He says he has not been in
school since he was eleven years of age
but can speak and write fiuently six differ
ept languages: English. Spanish. French
Danish. German and Bohemian.
This prince of the side line sleepers has a
far different appearance from the ordinary
hobo. He dresses well, keeps clean and
has never as yet begged cent He neither
drinks, smokes nor chews and says he is
now rs years old and has never tasted
drop of liquor. 1t seems that he was
brought up by prominent family in San
Francisco, but yielding to a longing desire
to travel left his home at the early age of
II and has been on the road ever since.
He receives a regular allowance from his
family on which he lives, but has a consti-
tutional opposition to paying railroad fares,
which now he never does.
"A No. T. is well known in Birmingham
and seems to have fancy for the city,
staying here four days, the longest time he
ever spent in one town. He says If he
had money to spend he would invest 1t in
Birmingham real estate, and that the first
thing he would buy would be the city hail,
of which he would make a conflagration.
The dispensary question seems very in
teresting to him and against 1t he is strong
ly arrayed, stating for his reason that he
was in Darlington, S. c., when the fight
occurred between Tilmans spies and the
citizens At the time he was hiding under
box car for protection and saw four men
killed within twenty feet of his place of
safety.
This king among tramps has been offered
large amounts by leading magazines and
journals to write history of his travels,
but as yet, none of these have been ac-
cepted. He states that in December last
the Harpers offered him $500 to write one
article on winter in the south, however,
"A No. II has not decided to enter the
journalistic field just yet, as he can't stay
in the town long enough to start his book.
Long since "A No. T. has arisen from the
common line of hobos, who ride In freight
cars, but never deigns to catch anything
lower than a through vestibule and regard
less of brakemen, policemen and the usual
list of estoppels he manages to arrive at
his destination on schedule time.
From here he goes to Cincinnati, and left
early this morning on top of the Alabama
Great Southern No. 2.

When the pope came into view the

by the glittering tiara. His hands
trembled and sad smile played over
the colorless lips. With his left hand
he waved sad greetings, while with the
right he did his feeble best to raise it in
blessing. Twice he rose, the second
time in reading the benediction. His
voice was scarcely audible. Before con-
Guiding the benediction he fell back

cumbent position. A loud cry like the
bursting of a storm broke from the
congregation and the pope, stretching

! MANY NARROW ESCAPES



1siG lEillfnsry Establishmants sc Cleve-
land Destroyed BY Fire.
e CLEVELAND, April Il. The immense
Wholesale millinery establishment Of
Hart % Co., occupying the block from
Bank to Academy street. has been de-
stroyed by fire. Ambulances were
called, and it was reported that a num-
Der Of lives had been lost. Later it was
said by the fremen that no lives had
been lost but several are known to have
been injured. The flames spread rap
idly and 20 engines, a water tower and
two fire boats threw water into the
burning buildings. The fire originated
in the 4-story brick building occupied
by Comey & Johnson, hat manufac-
sturers, and spread with great rapidity
through the structure and to the adj
joining brick block owned by Hart e.
Co., wholesale milliners, and several
other firms. The loss SO far is roughly
estimated at $500, 600. Both buildings
were crowded with hundreds Of girls.
Many of them were carried down the
ire escapes by the firemen.
About a dozen men, cut off from es-
cape in the Hart building, ran to the
roof and began crying for assistance.
The crowd below looked on horror
stricken begging the unfortunates not
to jump. Ladders were run up as fast
as possible and all on the roof were soon
brought safely to the ground.
In two and half hours the fire was
brought under control. The total loss
is estimated at from 5000, 900 to $500, 900;
partially covered by insurance.
About a dozen were injured.

Closer Union should he tho Result Of the

CHICAGO, April is. Senator Cush-
man K. Davis, Of Minnesota, Chairman
Of the senate committee on foreign af-
fairs, stopped over in this city a few
hours while en- route from Washington
to his home at st. Fanl.
The recent disaster at Samoa is de-
plorable,0 he said, ..and, although it
may embarrass present negotiations
somewhat, am confident it will be set
tied amicably The nations concerned
are too great in every sense Of the word
to be led into war over any issue that
can arise over Samoa. It would be a
crime against civilization, and feel
assured all the resources of diplomacy
will be exhausted before any such course
will be adopted.
Our own future and the welfare of
the world demands unity of action by
England, Germany and this country.
We know from the standard of Ger
many's civilization that there can be no
true cause of trouble between it and the
United States. I hope out of the pres
ent friction will come an understanding
which will knit the two countries closer
together than ever before. Together
with England it would form trinity
that would be irresistible in spreading
higher and better civilization through
out the world.",

SAN FRANCISCO, April 1S.-About 100
United States soldiers are under arrest
on the Preside reservation. They are
encamped on the open and are guarded
by cavalry and the Twenty fourth in
fantry, regulars The offense Of the
men was the burning down of a saloon
just outside the reservation lines, in
which Private Charles L. King, Com
pany G., Twenty-third infantry, was so
brutality beaten Saturday night that he
is not expected to live.
Private Parke of Company F, also of
the Twenty-third regiment, is in the
guardhouse, charged with the assault,
but the soldiers assert that the saloon
people are responsible and claim that
the proprietor, AL Rheifeld, was the
chief assailant of the injured man.
Early in the morning some one started
the story among the troops that King
was dead. Despite the denials of the
officers the report spread and by night
fall the men had become wildly ex-
cited. Soon after dark nearly 100
Proceeded to the Saloon
where the row had started and after
wrecking its interior, set fire to it in
several places, no one daring to inter-
fere. The men organized bucket bri-
gade and prevented the adjoining build
ings from catching fire. During the
progress of the fire the soldiers are said
to have discharged many shots into the
air and have INDUCED in much hilarity.
The men were placed under arrest as
soon as they returned to Preside by
Colonel Freeman of the Twenty fourth
United States infantry, commandment of
the post. All the men implicated in
the affair are white. The colored
troops, none of whom took part, were
placed over them asa guard, the cavalry
lending its assistance
There being no guardhouse of suf6-
Gent capacity the prisoners were
rounded up on the outside. The men
were nearly all to sail for Manila in
few days on the outgoing feet of trans
ports.
