FOUR LOST MOTHERS ARE
 RESTORED TO THEIR SONS
Colonel Shields Makes Record Tn Get tinx Separated Members Of Farui-
 lies Together In Big Crowds.

Colonel Shields. the officiai an nouncer at the Fair Grounds. has made a record in finding lost children and restoring them to their parents since the Fair opened. He took four boys, who had strayed away from their par ents at the grounds yesterday and soon restored them to the anxious afins of their mothers.
 Not a day has passed at the grounds that Colonel Shields has not found q lost child and restored it to it's mother. In addition to this he has also returned lost property. such as overcoats. wraps of all kinds, gloves etc, to their own CTS. These articles are usually left with him when found, and when in- quiry is made he restores tliem to their rfghtful owners.
 If you haven't heard the Colonel calling out the races and other att fractions it Is we'll worth while to go out and listen to him. He has the In- diana Hoosier drawl, the rhfnocerous below and a nasal farewell that is something remarkabie.
 But he enunclates so perfectly that he can be heard several hundred yards away with the greatest distinctness He has been the official announcer and The Man Who Knows IL Alp' at a hundred fairs throughout the country and is valuable addition to the public utilities.

FEWER TRAMPS
NOW RIDING
BUMPERS
Stringent Law Enforcement
Keeps Migrants Out of
New Mexico.

There are few hoboes coming into
Albuquerque now. The bells are
toling for the one time hobo and
the festive tramp. In the east the
railroad companies are combined
against them. In the south travel
by foot is not as convenient as 1T
might have been. Now is the time
of the year when the DETECTION from
the colder ATTITUDES is expected, but
the tramp has yet to appear. All
conveniences of travel have disap-
peared and laws make life a burden.
While in New Mexico the railroad
companies have not combined to
blacklist the knights of the bumpers,
still the trains are comparatively un-
burdened. and the laws are such as
TO still the voice that calls for a
handout at places where the wood
pile does not represent a visible dan
ger. -el
The action of railroad companies
in the north in calling upon police
chiefs in different ci.ies to meet the
situation and assist in the clearing
of the rods has delayed the tramp
exodus from the frostbitten land of
winter apples and the sugar bush.
In New Mexico the laws are
stringent. 1t is an offense under the
law for the brakemen or conductor
to accept money from a ragged trav-
eler or charge room rent in a box
init a passenger to ride free. At the
same time in most STAKES there is
money in the pockets of any officer
who happens to send a tramp as
vagrant to the county road. What
amounts to a reward of vigilance
and a price upon the head of Weary
Willie is offered.
Few Still Ride.
Still The bumpers are not altogeth-
er free of human freight. Through
traffic on the rods Is, however, dis
counted. Tramps of the variety for
merly known believed in long jour-
neys and protracted outings. They
are down and out. Only local busi-
s1rss Is transacted at the rod and
bumper rate.
"You hardly ever see thorough
bred hobo nowadays explained a
railroad officer. 'sNok long ago the
crop was large, but each year of
late it has been growing smaller.
"Of course, men are always riding
on the rods, but they're not the sort
that used to make life a burden for
trainmen.
"a real hobo never has a cent and
generally has a club. He always
wants a drink and is generally hun
CRY. Som etimes they CAPTURED box
cars and had their little picnic with
all modern conveniences hay to
sleep on, the remnants of few
lunches to eat and cigarettes with
which to start a fire.
"Now it's different. The officers
have made it so hot for the real
tramp and the festive hobo that New
Mexico has been generally eliminat-
ed from the travelling map as far as
they are concerned. Now that they
are shudsing down on them in the
north IT may keep a few from maxi
ing the usual journey to other parts
of the south for the winter"

CRYING FOR HELP.
