INFESTED WITH TRAMPs.
Scranton Seems to Be Their Favorito
Rendezvous.

1t would be a good plan for the au-
thOrities to arrest all men found loaf
ing about the city and suburbs and un-
able to give n good account of them
selves, and set them to cleaning the
streets with a broom and dustpan, IL
no other method is available. by the
way, what became of all those impos-
sible little go-carts and the shovels
that accompanied the white wings of
the Dunning dynasty?
This town is infested with suspicious
characters. The fact has been men
toned before in these columns. Scarce
ly a night passes that some ones house
is not entered by sneak thieves or that
lurking figures are not seen in the
shrubbery of the hill district.
In the day time tramps swarm at
kitchen doors and frequently two of
these sorry-looking individuals appear
simultaneously at front and back en-
frances. They should he arrested, for
1t is evident that they are not after
food, but are reconnoitering for busi-
ness purposes later.
Tuesday night suspicious characters
with faces disguised or half hidden,
were again about the residence OF w.
L. Connell, on Clay avenue. At nearly
the same time two men were seen
prowling around Theodore WOlfe's
house on the same street, and the fact
was disclosed that they visited a num-
Der of residences in that vicinity.
Yesterday, while the sun was shin
ing so cheerfully, n man came to the
kitchen door of one house and asked
the maid if he might come in and warm
his hands. She looked at him doubt
fully and finally assured him that he
might keep his hands in his pockets,

quent, that the domestics in most
homes are growing very wary indeed.
A man from the Gas and Water com
pany complained bitterly this week
that he could scarcely gain entrance to
a house any more, and that it was only
by the utmost persuasion and the
occular evidence of his book from the
office that he could get inside the door.
Plumbers utter similar objections.
