their night clothes.
Among the articles destroyed was 4
large collection of Navajo rugs and
$780, There was insurance in the
amount of $1,000.

WHEN UNIONISM WILL DIE

When the lion eats grass like an OK,
And the fish-worm swallows the
whale;
When the terrapin knits woolen soX,
And the hare is outrun by the snail;
When serpents walk upright like
men,
And doodle-bugs travel like frogs;
When grasshoppers feed on the hen,
And feathers are found on the hogs;
When insects in summer are rare,
And snuff never makes people
sneeze;
When tomcats swim in the air,
And elephants roost upon trees;
When fish creep over dry land
And mules on bicycles ride;
When foxes lay eggs in the sand,
And women in dress take no pride;
When Dutchmen no longer drink beer,
And girls go to preaching in time;
When billygoats butt from the rear,
And treason is no longer a crime;
When humming birds bray like an
ass,
And limburger smells like cologne;
When plough shares are made out of
glass,
And hearts of workmen are stone;
When ideas grow in a jackass' head,
And wool on a hydraulic ram;
Then unionism perhaps will be dead,
But the world won't be worth a d-n.

THE TRAMP PRINTER

The other day dispatches contained
brief reference to the death of a
tramp printer, killed in a railroad
wreck. 1t isn't often, nowadays, that
one hears of, reads about OF meets a
tramp printer. Once numerous, he
has become rare article, indeed.
The number of printers who used
to roam over the country, taking jobs
for few days or weeks, and finally
disappearing for some grand bacch-
analian celebration, must have been
very considerable. Many of them
were fellows of native ability They
possessed a winsome manner not
wholly blurred over by the corrosions
of dissipation. They could take al
most any job in newspaper office,
from devil up to editor-i -in-chief, and
perform its functions with skill and
distinction for few days.
Many of them had a wide range
of literary acquaintance and much
education and culture. They could
explain sensible opinions They got
about what they wanted out of life.
Their rowing natures were refreshed
by constant change, and they could
earn enough in half time for their
wants.
The tramp printer is gone, never to
return. He thrives only on easy laws
and wide open lids. He is not liable
to survive the dusty droughts of pro-
hibition. These are days when print
ers are well paid, frequently more
than editors. The man who would
give up his steady and lucrative job
for the baffled and gypsy life of the
old tramp printer must have very
peculiar standard of human comfort.
Today he can satisfy his desire for
novelty by attending the movies, and
he finds it much easier to see the
world through the film play than
from the interior of jolting box car.

Among the bills is one to raise the
