The present severe cold snap has not
brought the large number of lodgers at
the tramp house. in Smith street, as
naturally wouldbe supposed. So far
the average has been below that‘of No-
vember, during winch, at no time, was .
the weather anytihng like as severe as
it is as present The his t number
rapbrted was Thursday nlg t. when flf-
icon members of the clan put up at
the Hotel in Howard. The night belore
that there was but seven. and one night
this week but four were accommodated.
it is expected that the average will in—
crease if the cold wave is oi very long
duration. although no such rsahvofhue—
ins-es ts anticipated-as there was dvo
or six years/ago. when the army of the
unemployed was much tarp than at
present. Then the room was packed
full of human beings every night. the
average being from thirty-live to forty.

know what sort of a breakfast they
would have. if any. A few were re-
served and had little or nothing to say.
ind seemed to feel their unfortunate
position keenly. Others showed plain-
v what had brought them to their un-
fortunate present condition. The story
would be read in their faces. and was
dissipation and strong dunk. These.
homer. have been contented with the
die they lead and care but little where
they are when night overtakes them.
Some of these tramps. or hoboes. as
they are called. are on the road for the

‘ned to it. while others are old round-
ers. and come around several times a
