 Washington. Nov. 3O.-It is learned that MT. Beaupre, our Minister at Bogota. has received several different propositions from the Colombian Government since the publication of sA-respondence. each con- taining some indidect method of rectlfying what the Colombians themselves now re- gard as fatal blunder of permitting the Hay-Herran treaty to expire last Sep tember.
 MT. Beaupre for his part is using his best efforts to make 1t clear to the Colom- bian officials that the treaty Is dead be- yond resurrection and that he cannot even conduct negotiation looking to the acquisition from Colombia of a right of way across the isthmus, located in an independent republic over which Colombia has no authority.

INJUNCTION Is APPLIED FOR
Poorly Attended Meeting of DIrec

Some idea of the disadvantages

the purpose of building telephone
line between Milan and Taylor Ridge.
The line was completed as planned
and for time things went along
smoothly enough. Later some dissat-
iSfaction with the manag cement or
service became apparent and a meet
ing of the directors was called.
Wire Was Grounded.
The meeting was not we'll attended.

legged by the complainant to have been
dIspleased by the calling of the meet
ing, grounded the wire near Blaser's
place, cutting off the current and rem
dering the instruments useless. Bla-
ser then severed the wire at his place.
which enabled him to use his phone

step seems to have been followed by

With the assistance of Sheriff Held

At present the Ohio river is IN

will carry to market an immense
shipment of coal. 1t Is expected
that at least a half million tons of
coal will 60 out on the present rise,
and the food that moves large

piles to be brought up from below
and distributed to the mines near
Pittsburg. The present rise thus
ipsures activity at the mines

The hobo has reached the dig
nifty of figuring as the subject OF
discussion at a national convention.
Today a meeting OF delegates from
all parts of the county was held at
Philadelphia, and the tramp, who
has become so numerous In some
localities that he Is dangerous-to
peace of mind of the inhabitants, at
least-will receive attention which
may be to his liking, and may not.
There Is a concerted movement

ing to an abatement of the hobo

THE TRAMP PROBLEM

of others, and results In the end IN
making the evil worse than 1t was
before.
It Is a peculiar thing that the
institutions established In various
parts of the country for the re-
formation of tramps have iuvari ably
resulted In fat failure. High
phiianthropic motives and lofty
aims are all right, but they seem to
have no lasting effect on the hobo.
Once tramp always a tramp Is
the rule, and charitable people
who have been In position to
thoroughly study the matter say 1t
Is very rarely broken. The best
plan thus tar devised Is the one
which puts the hobo where he IS
compelled to support himself.
Work Is the poison Of the tramp,
but 1t Is a poison that will cure If
arysfng will. The Philadelphia
convention will probably not be
able to devise any better remedy,
and 1t Is hoped some means may
be suggested for making Its appli-
cation general. If the hobo once
realizes that work Is positively OBJ
ligatory, he will doubtless have
discretion and get busy before the
constable hauls him off to the
stone pile.
