THE TRAMP TROUBLE. An Effort to Make the Old Timers Earn Their Board, And Inocculete Them With Disease at the Same Time, A new deal hss boen determined upon in the vexed quettlon of the dis- position of tramps and dead beats who are coutinually turning up and are only too glad to be given a term in the city or county jail, whero food, fire and shelter are assured them. As the matter stands they have ben- efitted the city none, they have taken up the tiwe of the police judge with- out paying a cent into either the city treasury or the judge's private purse and in short have been a thorn without the rose, in every respect. They could neither bs persuaded out, ran cutor kicked out of town, and if they couldn’t get into jail any other, way, would stal some small articles ond go up tor petit larceny, pleading often with the judgo for the longest possible terin, Teesday eleven of these out-cast were march d up to the court room, some of then as graceless scampe as ever scuttlod ship or cut throat. As the result of couforeuce with the mayor they were given ten days in the city jail, at hard e rock pile will be worked st capacity and if nocessa.y policcmen will bo detailed to stand ov. r the men and ses that they earn their board.

Speaking of thia place, we have heard mach complaint of late from parents whose boge frequent it and spend theic time playing billiards and pool. A motley crew of little boy ranging in years can be seen nlghtly at thls I2tort in- dulging in poc who are not ai- lowed sidc of & billiard ball and se ioon. Boys who ought to be at home evenings “rusile” around to accumu- late uickels and ten cent peices tc swsll the coffors of this avaricious firm. The place is ostensibly con- ducted ou a_tempersnce basis li- quor being dispensed—but whether a pool hallinviting tae patronage of boys of tender yoars, even when conducted on this basis, is not a detrimeat, is an open question. The boys acquire the habit here and when they become old enough 1o be allowed in regular billiard kalls and saloons, it is not apt they will bresk off from the fascina. tions of the zame. We have hesrd so much complaint about this place that it becomes our duty to mention it. The young man above alluded to will probably lose his sitaation on sccount of the arrest.
