Novel Procedure for Getting Needed
Harvest Hands In Nebraska.
Farmers Seize Tramps from the
Freight Trains and Compel Them
to Go IntO the WheatAelds aAd
Work for Good Wages.

Owing to the large crops the farm
ers in Nebraska and Kansas have to
use all sorts OF ingenious schemes to
get harvest hands. Enterprise in this
respect lately brought three citizens
Of Waverley within the grasp Of the
law, reports the New York Sun.
The three farmers were in the hab-
it of lounging about the railroad sta
tion every evening between nine and
ten o'clock. About that time q
freight train came along and stopped
for water. In the Lincoln yards be-
fore starting toward Waverley two
accommodating brakemen always
took great pains to leave one car un-
sealed. Into this tramps would
jump.
When the train stopped for water
at Waverley the farmers rushed for
the car and seized the lurking
tramps. One OF the farmers was .
justice Of the peace. Frst the
tramps were tempted by offers of
good wages to work. In case the
tramps refused these overtures they
were thrown into the stufYy Jail and
sentenced to few days hard labor
for vagrancy. The labor consisted in
shocking wheat for one of the trio.
The tramps were put to work un-
der close surveillance, and. when they
finished their stint were allowed to
depart in peace with full stomachs
and q small sum Of money given to
them by the farmers.
Several of the neighbors were jeal-
GUS of the three farmers because Of
the success Of the tramp scheme and
concluded to compete with the orig
inators for some Of the pauper labor.
One evening a few days ago the
Justice and his two associates found
two neighbors in possession of .
tramp whom they had discovered In
the freight car. The vagrant averred
that he WAS from the shady precincts
Of Chicago and declared that he would
not degrade himself with farm labor.
The two farmers declared that he
must.
The three late arrivals with the
Justice at their head demanded the
tramp. Alexander Farwcll and Simon
Buskirk, who held the tramp, re-
fused to surrender him. A fight en-
sued Farwell, it il alleged. struck
the justice. Then q free-for-all fight
followed. Farwell and Buskirk tried
to defend their tramp. The trio OF
farmers were bound to get him.
In the melee the tramp delivered
few well-directed but impartial
punches at the contestants and made
his escape to lumber yard near
BY. The justice and his party dis
confited the opposition and then cap
tured the tramp. he was sentenced
to ten days for disturbing the peace
and listed for the wheat fields the
next morning.
Farwcn and Buskirk were not dis
couraged. They made their way to
the county Judge early the next
morning and swore out warrants for
the three farmers. charging them
with assault and battery. The trial
will be held after harvest, and in the
meantime the unfortunate tramp II
the property of the man who can
pounce upon him.

est with the Birds Ssrving
~ Musicians.

The author of Sands Of Sahara"
when visiting the Gorge of Chiffa,
came upon a strange ceremonial
which, a native assured him, was an
unusual one. The gorge itself is like
a grand sanctuary. canopied by trees
and lighted delicately by the sun
altering through foliage. A remark
able assemblage was there that day
"a congregation of monkeys ap-
parently holding some kind Of serv-
Ice, to which the birds OF the forest
gave music.
The monkeys sat in rows upon the
broad, outreaching branches of the
virgin trees. They were in parties of
two. three or four, although one fell
low sat alone, like decorous bach
elor. While most of them remained
stationary. certain partriarchal fell
lows passed about the area Of as
semblage. sitting down for . few
minutes on the branches beside dif-
ferent families of the parish, seem
ing to give the,u counsel.
Inc ceremonies were conducted
with the greatest propriety. The
monkeys seemed to be taking part
in n service In which they were deep
" interested. When II was over. and
they were about to go out into the
world, the ruling elders could be
seen running about. passing from
tree to tree on the interlacing
branches; nor did the assembly
break up until those evidently re-
spected officials had visited and
saluted the entire convocation. Even
their departure was made most
decorously.
Then. after that serious council
had adjourned, the monkeys fell to
enjoying themselves. They scamp
cred from tree to tree. They swung
from branch to branch. Some hung
by their tails, and others. in little
coteries, hand in hand enjoyed their
mid-air frolic. But the old bachelor
did not clasp hands with anybody.
