TO COLONIZE ALL TRAMPS
America in End Must SO Solve
Problem, SAYS Writer.

The beggar colonies Of Europe and the Old
Worlds method in disposing OF vagrancy
and mendicancy receive liberal space
in The Treatment Of tie Offender" pub
lished by the Prison Association Of New
York Figures are quoted to show condi-
tions existing in this country and the need
OF meeting the problem IN a better way
than that now IN use
The statistics" are in reality not such at
all. since It is impossible TO make an &C
curate census OF the tramp In the United
States, but $4,000 was the popular estimate
several years ago. The yearly cost TO rail
road companies Of these unlimited and non
paving travellers through depradations IS
placed at from S5O0O00) to S2510oM. Nor
are the railroad companies the only sui
ferers from this army Of Irregular tran
sients Every year a large number OF the
Migrants end their rowing career by death
from accidents on the railroads. The loss
of life IS put al a minimum Of 5000 tramps
annually and q maximum Of twice that
number
Not only the raNway panies and the
tramps themselves pay FOR the vagrancy
that exists in this country. but the general
public. which meets every other bill sooner
or later, has 70 contribute literally IN pro-
viding almshouses, hospitals municipal
lodging houses and convenient places
where MAGISTRATES may send nomads for
short terms-workhouses country tails and
houses Of correction.
The whole perplexing problem has at
tracted the serious attention Of European
governments for a century. and the soLu-
ton most generally approved IS the sstao-
fishing OF vagrant colonies As far back as
fifty years ago Holland was turning a bar
rem plain into a well kept garden, using
1000 tramps and beggars TO do the work
AZ the same time Belgium had smaller
begear colonies Twenty years later Ger
many established a voluntary labor colony
and to-day in the Kingdom ~ Prussia there

CHILDREN LEFT OUT
Plans for Recreation Piers Omit
Their Dance Music.
THE CITY IMP0RTUNED
Parks and Fairgrounds Asso
citation After Necessary
Money.

II looks 2 s though the children were 10 De
left out Of the city's plans for making the
recreation piers as much fun as possible
this summer Miss Morton, Of the Parks
and Fairgrounds Associa ton, explained the
situation TO a Tribune reporter yesterday.
1T was in 1870 said Miss Morton, that
the Dock Department opened the piers TO
the children for afternoon dancing. There
are I'VE of these recreation piers-at l25th
and Goth streets on the West Side, and at
10Th, Path and Sd streets, on the East Side.
The Parks and Fairgrounds Association
agreed to conduct the dances II the Dock
Department would provide the music. The
age limit for children admitted TO these
dances was sixteen wears. as the association
confines its work 70 children The super
visors az the piers instructed the children
IN folk dancing in addition 70 looking after
their general behavior while on the piers
I'm 1911 the same arrangement was made
and the work was again successful. This
summer It is expected that the sppropria-
ton OF $3.50 for the music will not be
granted, though many persons who believe
IT TO be an expenditure we'll worth while
have sought to convince the powers that
be Of its value
The Parks and Fairgrounds Association
does not mean TO abandon its recreation
pier work without struggle College men
and women viii act as play leaders and
teach the children folk dancing and games.
even II there is no music forthcoming, but
II the association succeeds as It hopes 10
do It VIII obtain the necessary money from
private sources, and the children will not
be disappointed
Miss Morton said the reason the music
was so expensive was because only union
men were employed as musicians II IS
estimated that for this season OF ten weeks
S2S3 q week will be necessary 10 supply all
the piers with plenty OF dance music IN
the afternoons The city IS expected 10
continue furnishing music for the grown
people IN the evenings The recreation pier
exercises will begin July T.
The problem Of the cost % music has
been solved for the Friday night dances
at Public School g by charging I've cents
admission. These dances are given under
the auspices OF the Nsighborhood Club Of
the school. The entrance fees cover the
expense OF q three-piece orchestra and Sc
cure the services Of a professional dancing
master who has charge OF the floor. In
addition to this, there f. a profit Of so or
