old, was in advance Of me- The great
portal opened, one Of the matrons
embraced that girl, clasping her in an
affectionate motherly hug.
They have a wonderful system in
New York. After registering I was
taken downstairs, stripped and given
bath. My clothes were placed in a
bag and taken to the fumigating
room. After the bath I got clean
under clothing. AS / stood with the
others who had entered with me, a
man entered with bucket and a pad
die. Sticking the paddle in the
bucket he then gave me swat on the
head. What is that, I asked, taken
somewhat by surprise. 'Germicide,'
he replied, that'll kill 'em ALL" He
was going to swipe me again when
demonstrated. One paddleful is
enough. Better kill 'em ALL he ex-
claimed, laconically. The municipal
lodging-house at New York accommo-
dates 1000 men and fifty women. It
is an excellent place and a splendid
example to every city in the counSry.
How different is this sort of treat
ment than that l found meted out

Hand mission in Kansas City. There

the appearance of the working men
of the plant. Coming out into the
cold air, all of us half clad, the chill
was insufferable. Every day some
of those who had sought like resting
places the night before were taken
with pneumonia and necessarily be-
came charge of the city.
In Chicago | went into a police
station and inquired where / could
get nights lodging. The lieutenant
told me I could find several places
in the neighborhood where I could
get bed for 10 or Is cents. l told
him I had not cent. Turning to a
patrolman he said, kindly: Here,
show this man to the North Union
Street Municipal Lodging-house.' I
found the building to be an old one,
and nothing to boast of from an ar
chftectural standpoint, but the in
terror was a revelation for order,
cleanliness and watchfulness on the
part of the attendants. Every feature
of the place was good. The santa
ton was perfect. After having a bath
clean night clothes were given to me
and was led to the dormitory. The
beds, the floors and other equipment
were faultlessly clean.

infiammatory rheumatism in bad form.
The first cry of the city authorities
against these lodging-houses is the
great expense, yet they think nothing
of adding hundreds Of thousands of
dollars to the cost OF constructing
other municipal buildings for no other
purpose than making them ornamen-
tai.
Is 1t not strange how we human
beings would prefer to pay taxes for
the support of criminals in the peni.
tentiaries rather than take a cheaper
means to prevent the making of
criminals?
Every man who walks the streets
unemployed is looked upon as a
vagrant or suspicious character Of
some sort. tell you that 80 per cent
of those unemployed men are honest
know it from experience. Do not
take the estimate of the police depart
ment. The police department is look
ing for criminals. With the police,
every beggar is suspect.
Twice l have been arrested while
wearing my disguise and was thrown
Ia Jail. I do not know whether YOU
understand what bullpen is. They
are dungeons, located generally in the
middle of the jail building. Into these
they herd the Migrants, the criminals
and the suspects of both sexes"

the brickyards on the edge of the
city. Arriving there, l found it to be
also a tile making plant, with many
merry kilns in operation The en-
ployes were cleaning out the fire for
the evening. l approached one of
them and asked where a fellow could
ind a place to sleep. He led me
to kiln, the fire of which had been
raked out short time before. "In
there" he replied, gruf1y, yet kindly
enough, pointing to the interior of
the kiln, which was still warm. I
looked in. There on the floor of the
kiln were at least fifty men, sprawled
out l entered. Some of them were
asleep. No one spoke to me. I tried
to sleep, but could not because of the
heat. Every little while I crawled
to the opening for air. l was deter
mined to stick it out.

first and strongest arguments for a

Like an Earthquake.

Former High Sheriff Chesterfield G.
Middlebrooks, whose bungalow at High
land lake stands partly over the lake
on stone and cement foundations, was
awakened at four o'clock the other
morning by loud noises which he says
shook his bungalow like an earth ire
NOR.
He says that after the household
had been shaken out of sound sleep,
he, not WAITING to dress, went outside
to ascertain the cause of the noise.
He found, he says, that monster
frog had its bed directly under the
bungalow. The frog weighed fully
six pounds, he says, and every time it
croaked the bungalow cracked and
shook
Mr.. Middlebrooks bought an anchor,
strong rope and enough red flannel to
bait 100 hooks, and will try to save
his property by capturing the bull
frog.-Winsted (Conn.) Dispatch to
