HOW TRAMPs ARE MADE.


 It is a common practice among lower grade workmen when trampinS Ill search of work to take their famihes with them. The better sort rarely do so, knowing well how quickly children acquire q relish for nomadic life, and how hard it is t0 eradicate the taste when once firmly implanted. The freedom the unconventionality, the ad- ventures and the surprises incidental to tramping have special attractiveness for town children. and all the more through the cessation of schooling. At Bridgnorth, the other day, d cleri- cal member of the board of guardians estimated that fully 250 juvenile wan derers had Received admission to the workhouse ill twelve months, and he drew the sound conclusion that they were learning yagrancy and it's evil habits. But the difficulty lies ill sug- gesting any practical remedy. When severe economic pressure compels any improvident tOiler to take to the road, the family possessions are usually re- stricted to the clothes they wear, with, perhaps, a few shillings ill pocket. All the rest of their belongings have been sold, 1t is not open to the breadwinner to leave his wife and children behind without any provision for their wants: if he did that, hp9wOuld be liable to prosecution. It is easy to say that the man should not thave allowed his household to come to such desperate straits; he ought to have set forth in search of work before the family re sources were exhausted. Quite true. of course, but the fact does not go an inch toward furnishing the remedy London Globe sg

BIG GAME RAGGED.
"Po1icy King, Adams and Seven.
 teen Others Taken In Raid.

"Policy king" Adams and Seven-
 teen Others Taken In Raid.
 NEW YORK. Dec. 13.-Al Adams, the policy king, was arrested yester- day afternoon in one of the most sensational gambling house raids ever made in this city. Seventeen others were made prisoners. including Mar tin J. Bergin. Deputy Commissioner Devery's brother-in-law and Adams chief lieutenaant.
 Correspondence between Adams and some one who signed as John J.. Scannell," the name of the fire com missioner, was captured. Adams checkbook. bankbooks, books of ac- count, with q complete list of his six weight policy shops and his records for the past ten years, were also cap tured.
 Five places were raided by Frank Moss and Captain Goddard, including the policy headquarters at 366 West Thirty-frst street. Axes were used to smash in the doors there.
 The raids were the most successful on record.
 All of those taken i'll the various raids were arraigned before Justice Hinsdale at , o'clock in the afternoon. Adams and Jansen were held in $5,- GOO bail each for examination tomor- row morning. The prisoner said to be Michael Bergen, brother-in-law of Dep uty Commissioner Devery, gave his name as James Ryan and said that he resided at 645 West Thirty-fifth street. Justice Hirsdale fixed bail for him at $2.500. Bernard Levy. was held in 5000. The other fifteen prisoners were held in $2,O0O bail each.
 Talking about the raids and Adams arrest while the prisoners were be ing guarded in the West Thirty first street place Mfr. Moss. who could not conceal his satisfaction. said:
 These are the most important raids ever made. At last we have got at the very bottom of this policy busi- ness We have shadowed this place for month and located the other two places by following men coming out of the house.
 Every morning men carrying heavy satchels have been seen leaving this house. They went to the West Side bank, where. we believe, the proceeds of the policy business were deposited

A ROOSEVELTIAN JOKE.

The sun was over the fo'yard and every old officer was licking his lips. The squadron had been out for two days at target practice, and on that day the chief officers of the several ships had been invited on board the flagship. where they were to be enter tained by Theodore Roosevelt. assist ant secretary of the navy. The guests feats of gunnery and speculated npon how such and such shot would have counted had the target been a Span ish ship. All save Mir Roosevelt had begun to weary of thls topic They found it dry. and conversation Lad begun to lag by the time luncheon was announced. Men who had long been on salt water were conscious of some thing lacking in the entertainment. For some time there had been q clear ing of threats and significant exchange of glances Mir Roosevelt's eyes fol- lowing those of the guests, caught the angle of the sun at the fo'yard
 Will you step into the cabin and have some tea?" he said with an eX- pression which might be significant of most anything, but which received but one interpretation by those who felt the salt spray in their throats. The movement toward the cabin was spon- taneous. There, i'll the center of . great table. rested punch bowl of magnificent proportions, filled nearly to the brim with liquid shade deeper than amber of the richest hue. In the center tioated an island of ice; sprays of mint were scattered at it's base and extended their slender leaves over it's brim. while pieces of lemon and other fruit fioated on. the surface of the cool and tempting flood. A generous ladle was dipped in it's nlys- terious depths and glasses were mar shalied around.
 The old commodore, with the color of the sun upon his face and the dry ness of the dessert in his throat, turn ed eagerly towards this oasis. Ha stirred the ladle lovingly in the i bowl. while tue others gathered about him. He held his glass. flied to the brim. between his eye and the sunlight that came with burnine glow through the cabin window. and the clatter and clink of glasses sound ed through the cabin as each officer ] filled to the occasion. With an ;iir of contentment and anticipated joy, he brought the glass to his lips. Then as all lifted their glasses to follow his example. look of horror passed over his face. his hand trembled. and , the glass almost fell to the table.

COULDN'T DRESS THE BABY.

REARING ONES SELF TALK.


 s.I have often wondered if the aver age man could hear. his own voice while engaged in conversation ob- served a thoughtful citizen, and the matter seems to be open to serious question. There is an old expression used under certain noisy conditions, which runs thus, I couldn't hear my self talk While this particular eA- pressiOn has more special reference to Il situation where the sounds are riot ing, am inclined to believe that i'll at least 50 per cent of the instances one is not conscious of the sound of one $ voice. I mean by this that one is not definitely conscious of the sounds.
 ..The tones are not we'll defined in ones mind Of course the waves are beating on the ear drums, but l fancy if one should stop to analyze ana clas- sify the tone it would be most con- fusing.
 ..The man who talks idly and who says things indifferently probably hears his own voice. But where there is feeling and animation ana ear nestness, and what one may call soul fulness. in conversation l do not be- lieve there is any well defined con- sciousness of the sounds which fall from ones lips.
 There are instances, of course, when ones voice is most pleasing ana soulful, as when one sings some sentl- mental song or huns q soothing tune, or reciteS verse and little SkltS rom great orations, and things of that sort. One is generally alone at such times. Yet in instances of this sort there are certainly mental aSSoclatlonS WHICH freouently crowd into ones mind, and much of the sound is lost in the pic lures which come trooping back from some earlier time in life.

The tremendous sensation that prof V. P. Wormwoods remarkable dogs and monkeys have been making keeps the Jacques filled with delighted au- diences each afternoon and evening, and there are signs that this will prove the most successful week since vaudeville was inaugurated there. These wonderfully intelligent animals do an act that is as interesting and amusing as it is novel and unique keeping the spectators laughing and wondering that brute intelligence can b.. developed to such q remarkable state of perfection. One can hardly realize without having seen them what extraordinary things they do under tise direction of Prof Wormwood, Dar- ticularly the arithmatic dog. This magnificent beast has an intelligence that surpasses that of many persons in the community. and in solving arita- metical problems he could put many Of our people to shame.
