SAYS TRUCKS ARE TOO HARD.
Hobo Wants to Submit Formal Com.
plant of Tramps.

Baltimore, Md.-A hobo who occu-
pies high place in his chosen profess
sion dropped into the Baltimore &
Ohio executive Offices the other day
10 lay his grievance before President
Murray. The president was out Of
town, but Mr.. Hobo's credentials would
have secured him easy access.
His complaint was that the rods
and trucks under the coaches are not
as comfortable as they might be from
the members of the fraternity who
travel in that way This hobo is some
thing of a mystery, as but few know
his real name. He is known as A No.
L wherever he goes.
He has been to Europe seven times,
to Alaska once. has visited Mexico
and South America. and has made
numerous tranScOntinentaI trips, beat
ing his way all the while. He was
born in San Francisco 80 years ago,
and since he was Il years old he has
been a tramp from the pure love of it.
This gentleman is a sort of Beau
Hickman of his fraternity. He does
not look like a tramp. He had on a
neat, well kept suit of clothes that
must have cost about S35. He had
just been shaved and had his mus
tache carefully waxed He wore neat,
blackened OxfOrds, and looked and
acted the part of a gentleman. He is
five feet four inches, has curly hair,
and speaks English, French and Span
ish luently.
When he travels on the trucks he
wears overalls. In his pockets he car
ries shoe blacking, tooth powder, hand
kerchiefs, a unique equipment for a
tramp, and, most interesting of all, q
tiny box of poison with which to put
himself out of agony should he ever
be caught in a wreck.
He is known by many railroad off,
cials, and the cards which they have
given him help to keep him out of jail
when the detectives get hold of him.
He spent for travelling expenses in the
last 26 years just $3.50.

four years as dead. but lost to himself,
is the strange fate of Charles P. Brew

To himself Brewin is a child with
but a two years memory, in spite Of
the three score years that have set
the snow on his head. He is now. he
thinks, Charles Johnson, a gray little
tailor, whose interest in life does not
extend much beyoud his goose" Yet
his wife and children are weeping
over him, trying to persuade the
amazed little man that he is of their
flesh and blood
A stranger case of dual identity,
with one self-dead, seldom has been
disclosed Physicians who have
known the whilom tailor as prosper
GUS Charles P. Brewin say the pres

the cause Of all his trouble
Brewin's dual history dates from
four years ago in November when his
wife and children awoke to find him
gone. A search failed to find him,
and he was believed to be dead. The
other day, however, an old acquaint-
ance recognized him in Plainfield, only
