St. Locis, fee. 10. Yardmaster
James Dewey found ayoungtranip
asleep in a box-car this morning,
and was about to administer yen-
rough treatment when he discov
ered that the tramp was a girl.
She was very dirty and piesented
a deplorable appearance. She was
placed in the hands of the police
matron, and, on being washed,
proved to be an exceedingly pretty
girl, 17 years old. She said her
name was Josie Lord and her
father was a farmer of Miller
county. She had run away from
home with the purpose of earning
her own living. She first an
swered an advertisement soon
after her arrival in Chicago, and
secured employment io a clothing
lactory as sewing girl. Her
wages were so small that the was
compelled to seek the humblest
quarters and lived with a poor
woman in a squalid part of the big
city, helping the housework in
part payment for her board, lwo
weeks ago she became so home
sick and downhearted that she de
termined to go home, but not hav
ing earned or saved the amount of
her fare, she decided to beat
her way in box cars and on
freight trains. Taking a pair of
ragged, discarded trousers, a
greasy coat much too large for her,
and a heavy, cast-oil' pair of
shoes, she started. She I raveled
two days, walking on the railroad
tracks and stealing rides at night
in cars, but her constitution was
not strong enough to stand the or
deal. The third day out she suc
cumbed to chills and fever, and
became delirious, A railroad
man's wife, living in the outskirts
of some small tow n she does not
remember the name of, took her
in for eight days. She was con
fined with fever. The few dollars
she had earned she gave to the
lady who helped her, and to the
physician for his medicine. Two
days ago, after the fever had left
her, she put on her old ragged
clothes, and, without the usual
formalities of parting, took her
leave and resumed her journey.
She walked until yesterday fore
noon, when she crawled into an
empty box-car at some station in
Illinois, where the train was on a
side track, and when she woke
up this morning she found a man
tugging at her coat, and telling
her to get out ol the car. Her
