Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1900-12-26

The dissolution of Akron's Economic
League Is provoking tho sneers of some
OF the editors living in nelghboring
towns. But 1t is pleasing to note that
all Of the criticism comes from towns
that have never had the enterprise to
organize n League, and that do not
know real Economic League from an
Athletic Association. The fact that
every citizen Of Akron is 80 thorough
a student of economies that no League
could teach him anything, was respon-
sible for the slim patronage given to
the Akron institution.

PARADISE FOR TRAMPS.
Larrikin Rules the Cities of Australia
and HObOes TerrOrize the
Country Districts.

For several reasons Australia may be
regarded as the ideal abode of the hobo
and the tramp, or, as the former is des-
ignated in the cities, the larrikin.
Thelarrikin. like the kangaroo, is pc
culiar to the Australian continent. In
no other country, certainly not in the
United States, wsuld he even be permit
ted to exist.
In appearance, says the Boston Globe,
he is understood in stature, slight in
build and sallow in complexion, prob
ably owing to an early excessive use of
cigarettes. His attire is unique and I'M
mistakable. He wears a narrow brim
felt hat on one side of his head. short
jacket reaching to the hips, pants very
tight about the waist to the knees, but
spreading out bell-shaped at the an
kles to the tips of his shoes. The latter
are invariably with high heels.
Singly a desperate coward, but in
packs or gangs as he perambulates the
sidewalks of Melbourne or Sydney. he
becomes a terror to women and chill
dren and a menace to anyone he fan
cies he can insult with impunity. He
rarely does any work and is never
found out of the cities.
The Australian tramp much resem-
bles the same species in America, only
instead of looking for work." he gen.
orally adopts the guise of prospector.
With billy or kettle in hand he
trudges from one sheep station to an
other, enforcing hospitality by the
fear that if such is not accorded a
barn will be found ignited on his depar-
ture.
In no country in the world are the I'M
employed treated with so much consid-
Grafton by the authorities as in Aus
tralia. As the labor vote controls the
balance of political parties, and the
floating population of unemployed are
"workingmen," in that respect officials
are chary of saying no to deputation
of this class of citizens.
For instance, as has more than once
happened, if a body of unemployed
should wait upon the minister of the
interior with request for free trans
portation on the government railroads
to some remote district. where they as
sert work is to be found. the minister,
particularly if an election is at hand,
has no other recourse but to issue the
tickets.
Then, it, when the place is reached,
climatic or other conditions are not
found to be as conjectured, pressing
request for return passage does not
often meet with refusal

Percy, his senses quickened by dan

and, swinging it ostentatiously, re-
manned by the door until the train was
on the point of starting.

neatly on the moving train.
Sir Richards state of mind was ad-
vertised by so furious a countenance
that the guard was startled and
alarmed to hear behind him a sound
like a short, soft hiss. He was not
quick enough to see how it was pro-
duced, for when he turned his lady pas
senger was looking out at the opposite
window. and the young man was hang
ing up the chain.
As the van passed Kirtoff, tied to his
post, a small lace handkerchief fut-
tered to his feet.
"Where on earth" began Sir Rich
ard, as he reached the dog; for he had
not seen it fall, but recognized his
daughters property, and picked it up

said, as he and the dog stepped in to-
gether.
The guard glanced at his watch,
waved his green flag and swung him
self in.
What is the brute after, behind
those boxes?" asked Sir Richard. as
he laid a rug on the narrow wood seat
in the corner. Come here, Kirtoff!
Come to heel"
The dog came reluctantly and q
moment later bounded across the van
to where several boxes stood, one on
the other.
You'd better keep that dog back,
SIR said the guard, tipping his peaked
hat aside and wiping drops of perspira-
ton from his forehead. There is an
animal behind there that1l make
mincemeat of him if he gets loose"
What sort of animal?" asked Sir
Richard, curiously, holding his dog by
the collar and moving in the direction
of the dark angle where the boxes
stood.
A quavering treble howl sounded
from the corner, and Sir Richard looked
uneasy as the dog strained and whined
in reply.
Il can't put a name to it, said the
guard, but it's dangerous, and more
than twice the size of that dog. l have
been well paid to keep it out O sight
and l hope you won't get me into any
trouble"
Certainly not; certainly not!" said
Sir Richard, hastily, seating himself
with his face to the corner whence the
strange sound had proceeded. How
far is it going?"
The guard went over to the corner
and peered behind the boxes; then
he returned for match from his over
coat, and striking it, held it over the
space beyond them until it burned out !;
then he lit a second match and passed
one hand warily into the space and
drew forth slip of paper, from which
he read.

Symptoms Caused by Anger.

A study of anger from experiences
in about 1000 cases, collected from re-
liable observers, has been made by G.
Stanley Hall. The causes were many
and various, often being very trivial,
and the physical sensations accompa-
nying it differed greatly with the in
dividual. Flushing was very general,
although pallor was a characteristic
in 81 per cent. of the cases. The heart
beats were violent, several cases of
death from rupture of this organ be-
ing reported, and there were some
times peculiar atoms in mouth
and throat, sometimes dizziness or
faintness, frequently tears, and gen.
orally copious salvation, which might
produce ''frothing at the mouth"
Common sounds were animal-like cries
in children, oaths and threats in
adults, while in many cases the throat
was paralyzed, and there was inabili-
ty to speak above whisper, or with
out crying or trembling. Butting
with the head, biting and scratching
are noticeable in childish anger

Cure for Morphine Hahi..

Great interest has been aroused in
medical circles in Germany, says a
Berlin dispatch to the London Chron-
icle, by the discovery by DR.. Otto EN-
merich, of Baden-Baden, of specific
against morphia poisoning and that
peculiar form of disorder known in
Germany as "morphinismus. The in
creasing use of morphia among a con-
siderable section of society has been
lately exciting much attention, and
medical men have been unable to pre-
scribe any efficient remedy. 1t is
claimed for DR.. Emmerich's discovery
that it has proved infallible in the
numerous cases in which it has been
applied 1t is distilled vegetable oil
of intense acidity, two or three drops
of which are taken internally daily.
After a cure, extending from three to
six weeks, patients acquire an intense
loathing for the use of the morphia
needle.

Distilled Iron VIII Not Rust.

Distilling various metals, Kahlbaum,
OF Basic, has found that a number of
them that usually rust quickly-like
iron or copper-are so purified that it
becomes difficult to oXidize them.
Iron is a beautiful silver-white metal
that does not tarnish in the air. Tin
proves to be the most difficult of the

uum it does not begin to pass over

General Campaign Plan.

Lincoln, July 10 Plans for the demo-
cratic national campaign were outlined
and practically agreed upon today at
protractsd conferences between the load
ers Of the party.
The plan includes the appointment Of
. campaign committee as agreed upon
by representatives Of the democratic, sill
yer republican and populist parties at
Kansas City.
This committee will include members
Of all three parties and perhaps also the
democrats not members Of the national
committee, but who are prominent in
tho councils OF tho party. This commit
tee, it is said, will, in measure, have
charge Of the practical working Of tho
campaign and will work for fusion ON
state and congressional tickets wherever
possible.
The press and executive committee it
is thought, will be about the Same as
last year.
The personnel of all the committees
was left in tho hands Of Chairman Jones
as was also the question of the national
headquarters. Chicago will probably DO
selected.
Mr.. Bryan said today that he had not
made plans a. to the part he would take
in the campaign and would not do so un-
til he had conferred further with tho
party leaders.
Committeeman Johnson Of Kansas
stated that an understanding exists that
Bryan will not tour the country % no
did during the campaign Of 1899, but
will make trips from time to time to the
larger csnters Of population, remaining
in Lincoln the greater portion Of the
time.
Many visitors are expected here dur

way, be = central point in this cam
paign.

The professor is not democrat

been a missionary himself but his
letter shows that he regards the
missionary system over there as
being far from an unmixed bless

between lines to reason out that
much of the present trouble sprang
from that source. Added to it is
the disgraceful attitude of the
