known as A No. /, the most in
teresting as we'll as most aristocrat
ic tramp that ever trod the ties,
visited this city yesterday.
He is possessed by the idea that
the trip he is just about to start on
will be his last and therefore select
ed a tombstone to be placed on his
grave at his death.
The identity of this unique charac-
ter, who in known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, and from the Gulf to
the Lakes, is a mystery since 1888,
when he first hit the road. The tomb
stone, cost $575, was sent TO Cam
bridge Springs, Penn, where A No.
1 on Friday purchased lot in the
cemetery after he had been imbued
with the idea that he was soon going
to pass out of this world.
mot until die" said A No. l.,
kill my identity be known, and
then all these persons to whom l
have been such a mystery will hear
something interesting as well as my
name"
A No. /, as he is called, since he
has never revealed his right name,
has the reputation of being the cham
pion train heater of the world. He
earned this unique title 10 years ago,
when he travelled from New York to
San Francisco without spending a
cent in the short time of eleven days
and six hours. For this he was pre-
scented by a party of New York men
with 1000 in money and a medal,
which he proudly wears on his shirt
front
IA No. is different from the or
binary tramp, and keeps himself well
dressed at all times and clean about
his appearance. In fact, he looks
more like a clerk than a tramp.
A memoranda book which he car
ried through all his journeys shows
that since 1889 he has Travelled 451,-
10 miles, 10000 of which was by
Water. The most remarkable feature
of his travels of all these miles is
that he spent for transportation
7.5G, which is a notification of his IT,
tie, the champion train heater.
He has been to Europe seven times,
Cuba four times, twice to Alaska and
once each to Ceylon, Calcutta, Vene-
zuela and Colombia. In fact there
is hardly an important place in
Europe or this country that A No. l
has not visited. When II years old
he walked from Belize, in British
Honduras, to Guatemala City, and
then to the City of Mexico, a distance
of 1900 miles.
This interesting character has not
been in Philadelphia in 10 years, and
says that of all the cities he has ever
visited he likes this the best.
During his career on the road A
No. has been the means of avert
ing numerous train wrecks by dis
covering broken rails and other
breaks on the road which would sure
ly cause a wreck. Only on Tues
day last, while bound for this city
he stopped a runaway freight which
broke away from the engine OH the
Erie Railroad just as passenger
train approached.
He has the signatures of nearly all
