The Tramp.

Jerry Chambers. the penniless
tramp, reached the western corporate
limits of FL Paso a few minutes be-
fore four o'clock that afternoon. He
felt the vagabond from the tips OF his
toes to the crown of his head. He felt
more than this-he felt the coward.
the criminal. He knew that Marina
Bostos-was she ever more precious
to him than now Twas suffering, and
that he was the sole and direct cause
of her suffering. lie knew that Gen.
Fernandez Bostos and Mike O'Connor
were worrying over his absence. and
that the three would carry heavy
hearts with them to San Diego. He
was not giving much thought to what
might happen TO himself. and his de-
spair was so pronounced that he cared
but little what fate had In store for
him.
