THE CITIZEINT How Baltimore Banished Tramps. The tramp evil has grown to an ap - I palling magnitude. The tramp is an an noyance, a tax and a nuisance yet there is no concerted effort to get rid of him, though a sure cure is ready to hand. It is well known that the tramp hates work and shuns it. This is the Lint which the good people ot Baltimore took advantage of last Winter. In the current number of The Forum, Mr. E. K. L. Goule tells 'How Baltimore Banished Tramps." and incidentally helped the unemplnyed who really deserved work, but were unable to get it in the ordinary channels. It should be read and laid to heart in every city, as it shows how the tramp evil may be abat ed without harshness or injustice to any deserving creature. Baltimore is a hospitable city and a favorite Winter resort for tramps. In 1892, 23,132 people received lodgings in its police stations and in 1593 this num ber increased to 39,976. This last Win ter the indications weie that the police station lodging would be better patron ized than ever, but some benevolent peo ple opened np rival establishments known as the Friendly Inn and the Wayfarers Lodge, and the police author ities agreed to receive no more lodgers, but send all applicants to these new hotels, whose need was suggested by the hard times and the number out of em ployment. The now hotels were under the charge of a Centra! Kelief Committee and all were welcome without money and without price, except compliance with a few reasonable and wholesome conditions. It was these conditions that banished the professional tramp from lialliinore. He could lind no shelter except under the hospitable roofs of the Wayfarers' Lodge aud the Friendly Inn. Xo bill was rendered at these hostelries, but c -rtain regulations were insisted upon Mr. Dusty Roads on entering the hos pitable abode of the Central Kelief Com mittee saw a vision of warmth, cleanli ness, lood and comfort very different from the unfurnished room, bare floor and whitewashed wall of the station house. But the joy which the sight and prospect afforded died within him when he found that as a condition precedent to the enjoyment of this abundance and comfort he must take a hot bath nightly under the supervision of an atttndant with a liberal use ol carbolic soap and his wearing must be regularly disinfected. Perhaps Dusty Hi ails could have made up his mind to stand the simp aud water, but that was only an imitation. In return for his food and lodging there was woodsaw ing and splitting to be done by the board ers, and as this did nut supply work work enough there was a stone yard annex. Seven thousand tons of stone were broken by the gai-!-« of the Baltimore Kelief Com mittee, aud the tramp as a species emigra ted from the city of Baltimore. It is the instinct and ambition of tramps to escape the fate decreed (or Adams seed. "In the sweet of thv lace shall thou eat bread." A wood yard and a stone yard, carbolic soap and hot water are repugnant to his whole nature. The good people of Bulliiimre did not discover this fact, but they are entitled to the credit of having ullilized it most effectively. This provid ed work for the deserving unemployed, and by baling the station houses closed to the tramps and no oilier place left open to them except through the nianium of a stone yard ami carbolic soap, they banish Ihe tramp fraternity from their city. —lf you are troubled with a "hacking cough," Uowns' Elixir will give you relief at once.

The American Flag. It i* said that there are 5,000.000 dafS made in the United State* every year; and these are brought from the lactorits and sold to small hoys, political clubs public buildings and citiiens. until, at the end of the year, the entire supply is exhausted and the mills and factories are (nil of orders for more. Americans never tire of the flag. A (rreat many of this number are sent out of the country to other lands where there are American citizen who yearn for a sight of Old Glory and must have it waving over their colony, whereever that may be. And others go out on ships to float over the ocean, telling their story of American cit'zenship and American rights; while many others start out with explorers upon expeditions of strange dis covery, and are lost io the trials that beset the discoverers c-re there has been a chance to plant the flag and repose under it* folds. But by far the greatest number stay right here in America and are used up in the legitimate service expected ol a country's flag. It is gratifying to learn that so many are demanded each year by the loyal hearts to whom it is the glo rious symbol of Nationality and Liberty.
