the commissioners court.
The Japanese boarding-houses have
| been doing wonderful business since
trade with the Philippine Islands be-
gan to open up. Nearly all the ships
which go to the far east return with
mixed crews of Filipinos and Japanese.
The men are good sailors, but must
have their fling on shore like their deep
water brethren of other nationalities.
They are not so easilypersuaded into
spending money, however, and usually
get away from this city with more
money than does the ordinary sailor.
They are great gamblers among them
selves, and put in most of their time in
the dingy offices of the Japanese board
lighthouses playing strange games OF
cards and dice
A shortage Of sailors is expected dur
ing the coming winter, and many ship
ping people believe that the boarding.
house masters will go back to slangha-
ing methods on a larger scale. They
have a very simple way Of forcing men
to sea against their WILL and, in fact
without their knowing anything about
1t until the ship is day or so out of
port. Owing to the large number of
sailors from this port, the masters are
not often detected. They take a good
sailor before the commissioner and ship
him promptly, collecting the months
allotment note Then they pick up
some broken-down man in the parks or
on the Bowery, and after getting him
a drunken stupor send him to the YES
sci with the other mans papers The
real sailor can be used over and over
again.
Clark H. Abbott, attorney for the sea-
mems branch of the free legal aid So
ciety hears the tales of woes of more
sailors than any other man in the city.
The branch has been established about
a year, and has an average of 400 cases
a month, His faith is being able really
to care for seamen on shore Is about
shattered. They often have big cases,
but can be persuaded to drop them on
the promise of a good drunk. He finds
that they will sign for a voyage to
China for IS to be paid them today
sooner than they would for regular
wages to be paid at the end of voy-
age. They get so in the habit of telling
yarns that they have no regard for
truth in stating their legal cases. A
sailor came to the office the other day
to see what he could do about getting
his clothes, which were held by board
ing master.
I've Just got out of Jail after doing
six years for killing a sailor" he told
the attorney. His story was not be-
lieved, and he changed it, We'll, to
tell the truth" he said, Il hit fellow
over the head with an oar, and was
sent up for 30 days.
I've been working year and a half
on a schooner, and the captain has on
ly paid me S. He owes me $421 and |
want to know if YOU can get it?' was
the way another sailor stated his case.
1t developed upon investigation that he
had been working Is days, instead OF
as many months, and that he had sign
ed to work for his board alone,
Such cases are continually coming
up. and make it very difficult to obtain

A New Industry.

swain He had stock Of photographs
Of good looking women. one Of which
he would send to any one answering
his advertisement. After correspon-
dence more or less fervid, he would
propose TO so to the mansion Of the
loving one and serve as housekeeper
for few weeks until they became
better acquainted. then marriage
would follow. Perhaps this did not
catch the suckers Hahn used to get
a barrel of letters by every mail. He
would also want few dollars TO pay
his expenses, which was invariably
furnished In this way he tapped the
love lorn chaps all the way from $50
to sic, and he did land office bust
ness. He would have his letters sent
ahead.of him, So that when he got in a
new town he would find bushel of
missives breathing hot love and con
tanning enclosures awaiting him.
When he had gotten his victim along

settled it. He dropped him and took
up another But this artIess little
game became to thick. The men find

woes before the postotlice department.
That body at once placed detective
on the trail of the much loving Hahn

that he was only developing the emo
lions of his victims, and that in in
structing them in the art of love he
was fitting them with those virtues
that adorn a home. but the postollice
is too practical 10 listen
to such a sentimental plea, and they
reached the cold and ciammy hand Of

The Census and Persons Away from
Home during June.

The count Of the people in the Unit
ed States viii begin in all parts OF the
country June /. and end IN the cities
two weeks later, and in the rest of the
country before the close Of the month.
The people are to be counted at their
places OF residence, but as many per
sons and families will be away from
their homes during June there is
some danger that such persons will
not lie counted. II they ale not count
ed the locality in which they live will
be misrepresented to that extent, and
in some cases this misrepresentation
may be enough to affect the represen-
tation in Congress of the State from
which they come. Local pride and
state pride, therefore, should influence
all such absentees to take reasonab bic
precautions against beng omitted
from enumeration in their places of
residence Such omissions are most
likely to occur in the large cities
where families close their homes and
90 elsewhere for the summer. The oc-
currence of the Paris exposition this
year is likely 10 increase the number
absent from the country.
In all eases of contemplated absence
the head OF the family Is requested by
the Census Office to communicate
with the supervisor Of the district in
which lie lives. He is also requested
to leave information regarding his
answers to the questions which are 10
be asked with some responsible
neighbor who VIII agree to see that it
reaches the enumeratoron his rounds.
Such information might better be left
a a memorandum in writing. a in
mat case it Is less likely to be over
booked. The questions to which ans
wers are desired apply primarily TO
the populations but also 10 all farms
and manufacturing establishments.
They are being published from time
to time i'm the press OF the country.
BY taking this trouble the absent
citizen viii do justice to his locality
aud his state and materially aid the
Census Office in the performance OF
its duties. X. MEYER, JR.
