stands in the historic Perkiomen Valley, in
Hereford Township. and this old fashioned Swiss
structure is probably known by every tramp
from the Atlantic to the Pacific Coast, as it is
estimated that twenty thousand persons, repre-
senting tramps of every nationality, have slept
and dreamed in the straw in this barn in the
last decade.
The barn is a large structure and within it's
walls stored the products of the hundred
farm that surrounds it. During every
month of the year the barn is popular resort
and hobo" passes through the Perkiomen
Valley without stopping to while away a night
in slumber or in a chat with fellow lodger.
They know that they welcome to the shell
ter given to them, and no has inflicted
any injury whatever on Mr.. Hiestands prop
erty.
Mr.. Hiestand has few rules for his nightly
lodgers but those that he has must positively
be obeyed by the Weary Willies," they will
not be allowed to share his hospitality. First.
they must surrender all their matches, and if
they are in the habit of carrying firearms of
any sort they must surrender them for the
night, and when those conditions are complied
with the hobo" is led forth by the benevolent
entertainer to his sanctum, his big shepherd
dogs are called aside, and the tramp craWls into
his bed of straw, feeling just proud of his
host if he was the guest of king.
The lodging quarters are on the first floor
alongside Of the cattle. The tramps seldom go
the hay NOW, as they say it is too cold, eX-
cept in July and August, when they occasion
ally make use of the upper floor
The same law holds good at this resort as at
the Gottshall place, for as they never ask
GottshaIl for lodging they never ask Hiestand
for breakfast, as they do not wish to impose too
much upon one person. Some of the tramps
have been the guests of Mr.. Hiestand for many
years, that their personality is well known.
Among them is Charles Snyder, a tailor by
trade, and who returns every alternate night
to the tramp quarters. He is a good tailor and
has repaid Mr.. Hiestand many times by mend
ing wearing apparel for himself and his farm
hands. Another is Captain Charles Smith. a

CLEANING PARK LIKES.
Rats No Longer Infest Them"
Plant Gr07pth Rem0ued.

The rats which formerly dwelt in the banks
about the lakes in Central Park are silently
stealing away" a pied piper" equipped with
instruments of his own invention, has called
unto them in uncertain tones. Where they
going he does not know. Perhaps in the
course of time persons living in the neighbor-
hood will be asking him to apply his inventions
again and lead the rats further affeld-at least
far the river.
The rats did not obey his orders readily. They
had lived long in the thousands of holes which
honeycombed the banks of the lakes and at
first they manifested a strong desire to stay.
The holes were cenented up. and then they took
to the trees and to the water. A Flobert rifle
was pressed into service and carnage regned.
For a short time there shooting that would
have been good practice for a sportsman. One
man out of hundred shots bagged ninety
seven rats. Occasionally a rat was discovered
in the water. If possible he was prevented from
landing, but it found that the rats had
great staying powers swimmers. They would
dive and swim about for a long time without
giving in.
Edmund B. Southwick, the entomologist of the
Department of Parks is the pied piper who
charmed the rats. A few days ago while
gagged in carrying out his Vaccinations he saw
a rat swimming in of the pools. THAT fell

Tactics which might supplement those of the

which are for the most part based on the Jap

assailant powerless simply by twisting his mus

tenn for the reason that it tends to pry victim
soints apart by using the bones as levers one
against another Should a New-Yorker combine
both the tactics of the London stick man and the
United States naval wrestler it is safe to say
that the police of this city would have far fewer
holdups and burglaries to record than at the

and feeds more ''hoboes' than the Keystone
State, and there is spot that has greater
reputation a hobo haven than the lower
end Of Berks County, where Pennsylvania Ger

those residents are two prosperous men, one a
farmer, who shelters tramps from the bitter cold
in his warm barn, and the other baker who
feeds them.

tramps as Mr.. and Mrs. Gottshall, of Fleetwood,
in the Kittatnny Valley, and they have made

KID NICHOLS TALKS.

Charles Nichols has been in base

remembrance of the important points
in his baseball experience. Says he:
L snail never forget my first profess
sional game. 1t was in 1891 I was
only Is years old, and that is pretty
young to begin playing baseball. 1t
was June 10 at Omaha. Along about
the third inning my nervousness began
to wear off, and you can bet that I had
never pitched such ball as I pitched
during those last few innings. We
won, but only by the skin of our teeth
The final score was to 6. and as luck
would have it. I was responsible for
the winning run When it came my
turn to bat in the ninth inning the
score stood to in Omaha's favor. BY
some lucky accident 1 connected with
a good one and lined it out for three
bags Two men were on bases, and,
of course, they trotted home, making
the score Z to 6 IN our favor. After los
ing series, I Won every game I
pitched. I lost my first game to the
Topekas, who We're then the cha mpions-
L remember that I held them down to
two hits until the seventh inning, when
they piled up seven runs on me. 1 fin
