The balance of the migratory population of the United States has become seriously disturbed during the last few weeks and slowly but persistently its center has moved in the direction toward the national capital. Thanks for the favorable weather conditions walking was good on the roada leading to Washington and thia fact, combined with the good humor and charitable disposition of the farmers, looking forward to bumper crops, enabled the thousands of self-constituted dele gates to the big convention of the "Brotherhood of the Unemployed." which will open Its session here to morrow, to travel in comparative com fort. Many of the "delegate who were too tired to walk or wished to rf. ilmiul oonHltinnd. traveled by .-sit' tha uninvited euests of the I various companies, and every freight J train arriving in the District of Co lumbia brought It scoiuingent of dele gates . . ,,! riT a Tn I army of unemployed to the national s said that among the laws to be d capital years ago has there been so manded are for the establishment of big a gathering of this particular national employment bureaus; free brand of men in Washington as la now transportation to the Job; the short promised for the first four days of ening of working hours; the estab September, during which time the con- lishment of a minimum wage, in or vention will be Is session.

The story, as I renv?mber it, and I have not heard It for many years, is substantially as follows: ;v ; "Saladin was the sultan, of Assyria, noted for the noblest qualities of chiv alry,, greatness of soul, piety.

Chairman How takes himself and the movement at the head of which he stands, its methods and its aims with perfect seriousness. The national gathering, which will be formally op- nprf tomorrow, is intended by hira not only as a demonstration against existing labor conditions and econom ic faults of the industrial systems oi the United States, but as a meana for remedying these , faulty conditions. Vice President Sherman and a num ber of United States senators have been invitde. to attend the sessions of the convention and to deliver ad dresses bearing upon, the subjects to be considered by the gathering. According to the plans of the or ganizer of the movement n effort win be made to strengthen the or. eanization of tha 'unemployed so as to give greater weight to their de- mands.

Found in the "Jungles" above the Main street bridge where for two days he had lain in a feverish delirium, an unknown hobo dsd last night before he could be taken to the hospital. The body now lies in the morgue with nothing about it to serve as a means of identification and it will probably be burled by the county In the pot ters' field without a mourner and without the knowledge of such friends and relatives as he might have had. It Is known that the man laid in the "Jungles' Tor at least two days, unattended, except by another hobo who brought water to him at inter vals, exposed and burning up with fever. Why his attendant did not notify the authorities is inexplaln- able.
