Fond Dc Lac, Wis., Feb. 26. At the an ti-tramp convention, the following re port of the ways and means committee was adopted. The experience of various lacalities under the present conditions, shows that while some tramps would be honest laboring men if they had the op portunity, the larger portion of them are determined to live on the public without work ; that tramps as a whole are a nui sance and a danger to private families, a needless expense to the public and a means of corruption to public officers. Experience ahows that comparatively little has been done to remedy the tramp evil by private individuals or or ganizations ; that the enormous and un necessary bills against the counties rolled up by officers in tramp cases, by means of the fee system, can be largely prevented by courageous county boards, and that the proper use of the work house will drive away tramps from that locality. As the reeult of this experience and our discussions, we have not settled all parts of the tramp question, but we have agreed on the following resolu tion: Resolved, That the system of remun erating public officers for public services by fees should be abolished. Eesolved, That the workhorse or some Other judicious system of labor for pris oners, including tramps, should be uni versally adopted. Resolved, That other methods of meet ing the tramp evil, including methods of prevention as well as of correction de serve the careful consideration of this conference at future meetings, and we urge all city and county authorities and philanthropic individuals to carefully investigate the many interesting experi ments which have been made with, the tramp problem in various places, among which we especially name the Brown county workhouse, the Dane county jail and the Rescue mission in Milwaukee: also the Provident wood yards in many cities, and the work of the anti-tramp society of Ann Arbor, Mich. And we recommend the methods of the latter so ciety for adoption in all cities of moderT ate size. Lost the End of His Sose. San ' Fkakcisco, Feb. 26. William Hannigan met with a peculiar accident yesterday which cost him the end of hisj nose. He has attented all the masquer ade balls held recently and consequently lost a great deal of sleep. When he en tered a barber ' shop at Sixteenth and Yalencir streets, be wae drowsy. He dropped into the barber's chair and called for a shave. The barber proceed ed with all good grace, but observed while lathering Hannigan's face that William had fallen asleep. Being an in dustrious barber be concluded the situa tion did not demand cessation of work, and being a gentle barber, he did not care to disturb the slumbers of his cus tomer. Everything went along pleas antly until the razor began operations on Hannigan's lips. Suddenly Hannigan's fists shot out right and left striking an imaginary foe. The , barber tried to jump out of the way, but Hannigan hit the razor and drove its keen edge i Vi rrY tha trtn r9 Tito vtnaA Then W 511 lam awoke with a start and looked at the dismayed barber, and when he felt the blood dripping down bis face realized what had happened. There was a hasty explanation and then Hannigan picked -up the piece of hia nose and ran for the hospital. The surgeon stitched it on. In The Plan 111 it Ohio Republicans May. Adopt. Chicago, Feb. 2&. A special from Massilion, O., says: There Is a movement on foot here to induce every intelligent person in Stark county to write at least five letters to that number of friends in outside states urging them to go to the primaries and work for McKinley delegates. It is reckoned hat 20,000 people should send 100,000 letters within 10 days, and as each correspondent will ask his other friends to write similar letters to other friende, the Scheme will be seen to be another manifestation of the endless chain jdea.

The Daily News will tomorrow publish a dispatch from Constantinople which says it is reported there that, February 14, the first day of the Ramadan "festival, the Turks sur rounded the Armenian quarter in Mar sovan and ordered the Armenians to ac cept Ielam. Five hundred of them agreed to do so, but 150 recalcitrants were killed.

' New Yobk, Feb. 26. A dispatch to the Herald from Rome says ; The Journal Don Marcio, the organ of Signor Crispi, states that the dervishes are about to repeal the invasion of Ery thera of 1894, advancing against Keren, Adingri, Godelflassi,Amacking, Italy's weak garrisons, intending them to join their ally. King Menelek. The new reinforcements, in face of this new threatened calamity, are insufficient. The Fanfulla announces the sending of 16 battalions of troops. King Humbert in accord with Signor Crispi, is resolved to obtain victory without loss of time. He will tomorrow decide who shall succeed General Bara teri. The fact that Menelek is threatening Adiqualii causes new anxiety. It is feared that he will entirely surround Ba rateri and then join the revolting tribes at Oculecusal.

Miss King-sley has explored the Came- roons region, H est Africa, and her ad ventures proved both interesting' and exciting". During" a canoe journey up the Og-owe river the canoe wss upset nearly a dozen times and the intrepid lady explorer and her party of natives were thrown into the water.. But perhaps the most disagreeable experience was encountered in the J'ong-we country. The Fangwes are cannibals, and are one of the few-tribes in Africa which eat their own dead. The people were friendly toward Miss Kingsley, but she had great trouble in preventing- them from killing" and eating" some of her servants. She did not come across one burial place in the Fangwe country; but she found that in most of the native mud huts pieces of human beinga were being" kept, just as civilized people keep fresh meat and other eatables in their larders. . On one occasion when Miss Kingsley was turn ing out the contents of a sack to try nnd find out the origin of a sickening smell, hands, feet, eyes and other hu rnan remains tumbled out on the ground. Although this remarkable lady slept often in the open air, was drenched with rain innny times, and experienced almost every variety of temperature, she enjoy id exce-lent health, and in tends to return to West Africa in a few weeks time. Associates of the Shark. A small fish called the pilot is nearly always found with the man-eating shark. Each shark is accompanied by from five to seven (always by an odd number, it is claimed) of these little vassals, and while his sharkship seems to be incessantly looking for something wherewith to satisfy his voracious ap petite he never eats these little pilots, though they keep very close to him. Another frequent associate of the shark is the remora, or sucker fish. Nature hasprovideditwithalarge.circulardisk on the top of its head. By means of this "sucker" it attaches itself to the under surface of the shark and is car lied by it wherever it goes. For Sale. Silver-laced Wyandottes chickens ; good layers, especially in winter.
