HOBOS LOVE INDIANA JAIL,
.sumptuous Tables Spread by County
. Sheriffs Entice "Weary Wilhes"
to Violate Anti-Cigarette Law.

Indianapolis, Ind.-Indiana jails an
filing up with tramps from Chicago
and other northern cities. The trampi
are willing. In no other state are jaila
so luxuriously furnished, so warmly
heated, nor in any other are such
palatable dishes set before prisoners
County sheriffs vie with one another
in furnishing GOOD board.
In no other state is it so easy t.
break into Jail. By standing on Z
street corner and blowing ringlets o,
smoke from cigarette toward thu
town clock one can get arrested in In,
diana, for the Hoosier legislature hal
made it a misdemeanor to smoke
coffin tacks.'
From all parts of the north thu
tramps are migrating, spurred on by
the first chill blasts of the season
toward the Mecca of hobodom.
They seek out a town and inquire
cautiously as to the bill of fare and
other accommodation provided at the
county Jail. If they are up to the
standard the hobo takes a position or
the courthouse square and rolls
cigarette.
The town marshal arrives and Il
about to arrest the HOBO for vagrancy.
when the latter coOlly lights thu
cigarette and puffs the smoke at the
official.
If he Is arrested on a charge Of
vagrancy he will get only one dollar
fine and costs, which will secure him
lodging for only two or three days
But cigarette smoking is punishable BY
q fine of $25 and costs. That mean
three weeks lodging.
At Plymouth; Muncle and Lafayette
tramps have been arrested for violat,
ing the anti-cigarette law. They I'd,
mitted they wanted to go to jail. Thu
weather is getting bad, they say.

The Edison company ahae booq fur

we're 50 high that the city decided to
batld for itself. The plant In under the
Manhattan end Of tho bridge. A brick
chimney carries the smoke above the
level Of the BRIDGE, It furnishes light
for the big bridge at cost. 1t has no coal
bill and 1t relieves Street. Cleaning Com
missioner Woodbury. of the expense Of
otherwise disposing of q great quantity
of rubbish. The furnaces are kept going
entirely ON the rubbish collected by
Commissioner Woodbury's men.
There are four boilers, and large
staff Of stokers are kept busy sorting out
the material and stuf1ng waste paper,
old boxes and broken barrels into the
fiery openings. Other men in the rear
rake out the hoops, the masses of melted
nails and all the thousand and one metal
things which go in with the rubbish.
The whole plant cost $4,000. There
is supply Of coal, but Commissioner
Woodbury. says he has enough rubbish
to supply IL more plants like this one. In
fact, the present plant has such large
capacity that 1t is more than equal to
the task Of lighting the bridge. The
eight temporary public schools under
the bridge approach probably will be
connected with it and the city may even
sell some Of its current to private con-
sumers. It was stated that private par
ties had offered to buy the plant in toto.

SENDS PICTURE BY WIRE.
Prof. Korn Able to Transmit Photo.
graphs, he Declares+Tells
Of His Method.

Munich.-Prof. Korn, leading cleo
trical inventor, claimed in q lecture
before the Electro-Technical associa-
ton that the problem Of transmitting
photographs by telegraph had been
solved in principle and it was now
possible to transmit photograph OF
sketch six inches square in from 10 to
20 minutes. This was done over a
telegraph line between Munich and
Nuremberg, but was equally practic-
able over 5000 miles,
The photograph to be transmitted is
placed in transparent glass cylinder,
which revOlVes slowly, at the sa.ne
time moving from right to left. A ray
of electric light is thrown upon The
cylinder and lens and when the ray
reaches the interior it is brighter OF
darker, according to the coloring OF
that particular part of the photograph
through which it passes.
Inside the cylinder is some selenium.
which transmits an electrical current
in proportion to the intensity Of the
light brought to bear on it. The
selenium transmits the current more
rapidly in bright and less rapidly "a
the light decreases. This selenium is
connected with a wire. over which the
photograph is transmitted.
The receiving station consists Of an
electrical Nernst lamp placed inside a
glass cylinder covered with sensitized
paper. The Nerust lamp burns more
or less brightly, according to the vary
ing current transmitted by the
selenium at the other end, and thus
reproduces the exact shade of the orig
inal photograph.
