His Amazing Eceentrleity.

Tt takes all kinds of people to make up world, and shore had one of 'em here day before yesterday" admitted the, landlord of the Petunia tavern. He was from Kansas City, and yet. when I asked him what he thought of our little burg he feplfed that it impressed him favorably. Then he stopped and I waited, but he didn't say another word on the subject. The strange part about him was that although he came from big town he didn't seem to think that fact gave him a license to criticize everything in little town and tell its inhabitants how to run their own af. rs."-Kansas City Star.

FIX VALUATION OF RAILROADS
Scene Reasonable That Dubious and Costly Undertaking Should Stop

Now while so much urgent work on railroads Is to be done not only in the United States but on the battle lines in Europe, and Americans are in de mand to assist in it abroad, remarks the Milwaukee Wisconsin. doesn't 1t seem reasonable that the costly and dubious undertaking to make phys ical valuation of the railroads of the United States should stop at least un- til after the warf :,

HOBO HAS NEW FOE.
Railroad Bridge Guards Are Mak- E ing "Traver' Uncertain.
GOING FOR FloATERs
Pulling Tramp From Underneath Freight Car is chlef Diversion of , National ouardsmen In state
 of kanoas.

The floating population, or the mi- grating laboring class, as James Eads Howe is wont to call 1t, is going to have some rough going this summer.
 In former years the ''floaters" had only trainmen, and now and then spe- cial railroad policeman. to contend with while beating ride on the rail- roads, says Fort Riley (Kan.)s dis patch to the Kansas City Star. But now he has bitter enemy, an enemy who just dotes on pulling an inoffen- sive working man" out from under a freight car, or from blind baggage. In fact, that is this enemy's only recrea- tiQn week in and week out. '
 The hobo's new foe is the National 0uardsman who has been called into federal service, and whose chief duty is guarding railroad property. The rail- road bridges all through Missouri and Kansas are closely guarded, and the Guardsmen are aided by big locomo. tive searchlights stationed on each end of most of the bridges.
 Hobo . Trespasser.
 Orders have been given out that no one is to be allowed upon a railroad right of way, and 1t takes a pass to cross railroad bridge. This order has been interpreted to mean that hobo sleeping peacefully in freight car is a trespasser. The railroads have always contended that he is, but they have al- ways had to put up with him, more or less.
 But now hoboes' days have come to an end. There aren't any more "jun- gles" down near the stockyards in the small towns where the hoboes used to gather and cook their "mulligan." The 'jungles" around the bridges have all disappeared. Hoboes always congre- gate where there is water, even though the general opinion is that they never use any of 1t.
 ouardsmen's Only Diversion.
 About the only diversion the Guards men have is chasing hoboes off the trains, and they certainly try to do their duty. The other day nine ''Weary Willies" were chased off a passenger train at Manhattan. They drop off at Topeka, Kansas City, Law renee, Leavenworth, and every other place where there is a bridge under guard. It probably will be hard on the wheat farmers this summer. but 1t will be doubly hard on the floating population" l;ls
