Tramp and "Yegg. -

Attention has been called recently to
the fact that many sections of the
country are no longer cursed with the
tramps that "beat' the roads from city
to city few years ago. The old tramp
was a sort of gypsy, living In the open
on stolen plumber, eked out by gifts
from tender hearted housewives. If
prosperous times have banlshed this
class of vagabonds from the roads and
fields, then his plea that lack of en-
ployment forced him to roam was cor
rect
But If the good natured and optl-
mistlc hobo Is disappearing a less toll
cradle individual has come forward to
plague the unprotected In the person
of the ''yegg," or tramplng criminal
The desperation and brutality of some
burglars, hlghwaymen and pickpockets
throughout the country suggest a new
school of criminals. The former skilled
and polished burglar and highwayman
went about his nefarious work with
due regard to his own life and limb.
He didn't risk discovery If he could
help it. Nowadays we hear of the
rash and clumsy burglar. the holdup
man who works In broad daylight, the
thieves who rob stores and houses In
daylight and load the plumber into
wagons standing at the door Perhaps
prosperity has not reformed the morals
of the tramp, but merely elevated his
standard of living" He wants more

outs" at the farm kitchen door are not

jewels and silks for him, even If he

From begging to stealing Is an easy
descent for some people. The bold
criminal of today may be the tramp
that was.

Our Iron Supply and Demand.

In spite of the fact that the produc-
ton of pig iron In this country in 1905
was nearly 40 per cent greater than in
1904, there was a substantial increase
In value per ton, evidence that the de-
mand kept pace with the volume Of
output at the furnaces. Not only that,
United States Consul Fleming reports
from Edinburgh that during 1906 there
was felt In Scotland sudden demand
for Scotch iron in the United States.
The home production of pig iron was
recently stated officially as follows:
Twenty states in the Union produced
pig iron in 1905 The total production of
pig iron in 1905 was 1882, $50 long tons.
This is an increase in quantity of 6,495, 347
long tons, or over 80 per cent. over the
production of 1904. 1t is an increase in
value from $233025, 900 to 1882, $50. 900.
amounting to $l49. 600. or 6412 per cent.
The average price per long ton of pig
Iron increased from Sab In 1904 TO $1663
In 1905.
Owing to the enormous production In
this country for several years back the
United States ceased to figure as a
buyer In the Scotch iron market But
a change has come over the situation.
and rush orders have been placed with
Glasgow firms since midsummer, 1906,
from the chief consuming centers Of
the United States, notably New York,
Baltimore, Philadelphia and Boston. A
heavy shipment was made to New Or
leans, the first for that port In over a
quarter of century. And Scotland
has no reserve stock as compared with
former years. Her reserve of 277,OOO
tons Jan. 1, 1000, had dwindled to o.
700 tons at the opening of 1906. guam
tity less than that represented by ship
ments ordered by the United States In
the course of few weeks. Indications
are that with the Americans making
heavy bids In the markets of Scotland
condition of things may be created
which will prove embarrassing for
home consumers.

High Priced LEGISLATORS.

If New York alderman Is worth
$1,000 TO his constituents, then a con
gresham is worth more than $1,000 to
his country. But If thirty-five state
governors are worth $1,000 or less to
their commonwealth then our con-
gressmen are overpaid rather than IN
derpaid for duties that keep them In
washington only little more than
one-third OF the time.

HUGLESS DANCING.
UAfcngo School Fad Like kissing Man

without Mustache, Says Girl.
"Hugless' dancing and "waterleas"
swimming were recently added to the
curriculum of the Chicago public
schools, says a special dispatch to the
New York World. No youthful arm
was allowed to belt the girlish waist
and they didn't even know that they
were dancing, because In the curricu.
hum the hugless dancing Is catalogued
Is fancy steps.
Instead of hanging their clothes on
hickory limb the children hang them
selves from flying hickory rings and
go through the motion of swimming in
mldair. Instructions for performing
the two stunts" are contained In
new prospectus of the course Of study
In physical culture prepared by Henry
suder, physical director Of the public
schools.
"Oh, yes, suppose 1t Is dancing"
said Professor Suder, but we call II
fancy steps. 1t Is intended to develop
grace Of motion and f1exibility OF body,
and at the same time 1t is an exceed
lngly important physical exercise"
ut is like kissing a man without
mustache," says one of the girls.
In regard to the wetless swimming
Professor Suder had this to say, THE
teaching Of swimming In the schools
was suggested following the wreck OF
the steamer General Slocum."
The swimming exercises, according
to the prospectus, are to be taught In
two ways. The children first are to be
put through the various strokes while
in slanting position. Later they are
to be hung from flying rings, and with
a wide leather belt around their waists
to support them they will enjoy all the
sensations of swimming without fear
Of cramps.
