.GOTHAM's UNWEL-
COME VISITORS

New York, May 22.-New York is
facing a serious situation because OF
the constantly increasing number OF
Migrants crowding into the city. 1t Is
expected that the city authorities and
the combined bureaus of the charity
organization and Association for the
Improvement of the Condition or the
Poor will take some action within
few days which may lead to checking
the number of unemployed fiocking to
the city. 1t is hoped that some plan
may be devised to send them to other
sections OF the country where workers
are in greater demand, or to sections
recently opened for settlement.
The various charitable Institutions,
as we'll as the city's bureau, state that
it is impossible to give assistance to
all of the worthy needy seeking as
sistance. In addition TO these there
are more than one hundred thousand
"panhandlers" and other Migrants and
beggars in New York today.

Bleak and barren is the west coast OF

where never a tree nor a blade OF

swept with windows Of sand. and be-
hind them fieeting glimpses OF the
towering peaks Of the main mountain
chain. Probably nowhere else In the
world is there a seacoast Of equal ex-

than simply initiative. For instance

said, Hello. Wood my reply was a
low "IIellol" He tried in every way
10 initiate that low tone of mine and
finally succeeded He would go over
TO his water trough and with his head
in the air would cry. Hello. Wood!'
Then down would 60 his head In the
