f GOTHAM
Gotham Has a iost Remarkable Beggars' Club
NEW YORK.—This city possesses one of the most remarkable beggars' clubs
in tlio world. Its members gather every evening in a ratlier quiet choj
suey restaurant in midtown almost under the Third avenue elevated. A
stranger might enter, eat his ya-ka-mai
or*.chicken omelet, and depart without
noticing anything ynusual. But if one
lingers and engages in conversation
it is not difficult to get acquainted
with the gilded, panhandlers. Here are
some of the more remarkable mem-
bers:
The president of the club. He is
dressed immaculately and in good
taste. He might be taken for a "Wall
street man." He changes his game
often, but has a favorite. Approach-
ing a stranger with a confident smile, he politely requests a few minutes'
conversation. He is a civil engineer and has come to the city with a liberal
check in his pocket to take charge of a big job. He has dined and wined not
wisely but too well. In fact, his last cent is gone. Could you help him to get
in touch with his friends and lend him enough to keep him for a few hours?
Glad to take your address and hope someone will do the same for you some
day. Thank you again, good day. Working this and similar schemes this
beggar prince has made his way from coast to coast many times, always
living on the fat of the land.
A typical Westerner. He is tall, well built, about thirty-five years old, and
wears a flannel shirt and a large broad-brimmed hat. He takes his stand
near o railroad station and tells his victim of his ill luck prospecting for work.
He can't find a friend in New York and is stranded and without means. If
only he had stayed in Montana, or perhaps New Mexico!—
A man in a United States army uniform. He, also, is tall, well built, and
strong looking. He is clean shaven and his uniform fits him like a glove. His
"spiel," as the beggars' lingo dubs it, tells of twelve years in the army and
an honorable discharge. Here he is, a man who has served his country well
and, if he had been injured, would receive a pension. But nobody wants a man
without a trade. In these days of "preparedness" his game works well.
A soft-voiced, well-dressed, ingratiating woman of middle age. She fre-
quents hotels and tearooms, always behaves well, and is never ousted because
the detectives can't "get anything oe> her."
A deformed cripple. At least he appears so when he drags his misshapen
body through the door. But a moment .later he has become an upright,
sprightly man, who briskly steps to a table and orders a good meal. It is his
remarkable double Joints which do the trick. He takes his stand on the landings
of elevated railroad stations or like places and holds out his cap, with a few
cheap pencils clutched beside it. He is really out-of-date though, and few
members of the club would descend to his crude methods.
"The begging brothers have the city carefully mapped in their minds as to
its revenue-producing possibilities. For instance, Broadway from Fourteenth
to Twenty-third street is worth 20 cents to 40 cents an hour; from Twenty-
second to Fifty-ninth street 75 cents to $1.
EtFopeati War lakes Philadelphia ioys Thieves
gr
PHILADELPHIA.—It is stated that the European war is indirectly causing a
500 per cent increase in juvenile delinquency in the city of Philadelphia.
Boys ranging in age from seven to sixteen years have been tempted
crooked junk dealers to steal metals of
all kinds to supply the demand of
munition and other industrial plants.
These junki men realize huge profits
by selling at high prices the copper,
lead, zinc and other metals which
their little victims bring to them for a
few cents.
Bands of boys haye-been operating
In every section of the-city, despoil-
ing empty houses, churches and shops,
and snipping telephone wires. As a
result, the telephone companies have
employed an additional corps of private detectivcs to guard their property.
In the last few months nearly 200 junk dealers have been confronted by
boys in the juvenile court and have been held for trial. Also 500 boys, caught
with stolen goods, have been arrested, and, as an example to others, many of
them have been committed to the house of detention.
More than $K}d,000 in damage, it is estimated, has been^0110 hy these
youthful thieves in three months, and offenses are continuing at an alarming
rate. Junk shops are being watched by police, and every junk dealer has
been notified that buying metals from minors constitutes a serious offense.
Many of the boys bought into court declare that their "fences" have fur-
nished them with files to cut pipes, spigots, valves, and wires.

mBB
Every druggist here, yes! your druggist and
everybody's druggist has noticed a great falling-
off in the sale of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone is taking its
place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people know it while
Dodson's Liver Tone is safe and gives better re-
sults," said a prominent local druggist. Dodson's
Liver Tone is personally guaranteed by every
druggist. A large family-sized bottle costs Anly 50
cents and if you find it doesn't take the place of
dangerous, salivating calomel you have" only to J.sk
for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant-tasting, pure-
ly vegetable remedy, harmless to both children
and adults. Take a spoonful at night and wake up
feeling fine, no sick headache, biliousness, ague,
Rule of a Higher Court.
"Do you realize, John Hays, that
you are guilty of contempt of court,
sir, and that you may be sent to the
chain gang for six months for refus-
ing to go home quietly? I will per-
mit you^to Join your family, if your
court conduct shows you worthy of
parole. Once again, . . . will you go
directly home from here?" The judge
was plainly indignant.
But Hays merely shivered and stub-
bornly shook his head, "No, sir."
"Am I to understand you prefer jail
to hpme?" his honor demanded. "Have
you no conscience?"
"It ain't my conscience, judge,"
Hays replied sadly, "it's my mother-
in-law. She dared me to come back."
—Case and Comment.
Kitten Travels to Indianapolis In a Piano ' Box
INDIANAPOLIS.—She did not have a ticket or any money, and she did not
have a lunch box, and there was no diner attached to the train on which she
came to Indianapolis, but possibly the lack of these usual adjuncts to travel
were made up for by the musical en-
vironment in which she rode on her
way from New York city. Anyway, she
has not registered a complaint against
the railroad company, and seemingly
is quite content as a guest at the L. E.
& W. freight office.
She came from New York over the
Lackawanna line in car 10198, arriv-
ing in Indianapolis over the L. E. &
W., in a .piano box. Of course, a piano
box is supposed usually to contain la-
tent musical possibilities in the form
of a piano, but this piano box, as it Btood in the freight depot, gave forth
sounds such as no self-respecting piano ever produced. They might best be
described as feline sob stuff.
A small opening was made in the box by some of- the employees at the
depot, and there came forth, from some small nook where the piano did not
quite fill the box, a kitten. She was not much of a kitten as to Bize, and still
lfess as to weight, and even her "meow" was somewhat impaired, for she had
been in the box without food and water for three days,-
Just how Bhe chanced to be nailed up in the box in New York was not dis-
closed. She.did not appear on the way bill.' But the fact that she did not have
ticket or money did not bring on her small head any reproaches ||'om the
employees at the depot. They dined her on milk and other delicacies suitable
to a very small kitten, and took her in as an honored guest.

Dejected Maiden and . Her Caller

Dejectedly reclining pn a couch, a
tear splashing stealthily down her
cheek, the gentle Jane was sorrowfully
thinking of the past. She had one
