Scarcely a day passes but a dozen or more tramps are fed at backdoors, and many of them become Impudent when refused. Where they are en couraged they sometimes call again, and also send their companions to so licit food and clothing. Dy so doing many a house Is surveyed by thu tramps and doubtless many robberies have been the result of their visits. Instead of being feed and encouraged, they should be reported to the police. Y.
