'Tin awful tired, an' I don't mean to
be a tramp all my life, so I don't.
How I do wish I was back in Seattle
with my pa an' ma'
It was a bit of a waif, an 11-year-old
boy, Avho spoke thus to a Council
Bluffs, la, Nonpareil reporter a few
dajs ago. He was freckle-faced and
wore an old blue knit cap. His shoes
were worn through at tho toes and his
clothes were threadbare and torn here
and there. His dirty aud wan face,
shrunken blue eyes and attenuated
body proved that he had not been liv
ing on tho fat of the land.
Hi3 name is James Thompson Egan,
and his father is J. B. Egan, city editor
of the Seattle, Wash.. Daily Frew.
He ran away in July last and since
then his father, nearly distracted with
grief, has been searching everywhere
for him, writing hosts of letters to
chiefs of police, advertising in news
papers and employing detectives.
Several thousand dollars were thus
expended in vain. Last Saturday the
prodigal son wrote his father stating
that ho was in Chicago and ready and
anxious to return home. The parent
telegraphed money to the general
passenger agent of tho Northwestern
there and also telegraphed the lad to
call there for his ticket.
"Pve had enough of it an plenty to
spare," said the lad. 'Tve been goin'
with George Haulan ho got sent up
afterwards for bnrglary an' he an'
his gang said there was nuthin' like
trampin' around an' seein' the world.
"That was at Portland. So when.
pa moved to Ssattlo I hooked five
cents belongin' to my little
brother an' had five cents of
my own. I got hold of a boot
black's kit an' stowed away in the
hold of a steamer bound for Tacoma.
Then I went to Spokane Palls an'
Helena. When I got to Glendirel
thro wed my kit away an' made 50
pickin' agates on the shores of the
Yellowstono river. I've been to St.
Paul, Milwaukee an' all around. At
last I fetched up in Chicago, where
Pve been for four months. I slept at
the Newsboys homo an' took my
meals where I conld get theni.
'I can travel anywhere without
money. I worked tho conductors by
tellin' 'em 1 was a poor orphan, with
out a cent, goin' to my aunt, who was
too poor to pav my expenses. When
that game didn't work, I 'seated it'
got down under the seats and
stayed until the conductor found me
and put me off. l'vo done all sorts or
things to make a livin'; blacked boots,
sold papers, peddled agates, was a pop
corn and chewin'-gum peddler, and
made money sellin' tips for 10 cents
apiece at races.
"Hanlan, my pard, gave men bad
advice," continued the sage of ten, a
runaway at nine. "It's no good beiu'
a tramp. I've been hungry many a
time and had to beg something to eat.
That was when I was travelin', be
causo I knowd 'twas no use to beg in
cities. Then I was arrested once at
the Newsboys' home because they
thought I had burglarized somethin'.
I was scared that time. But they didn't
lock me up. because I was inuercent.
I had a fight in Milwaukee and was
hauled up before the police judge but
he turned me loose.
UI was tired of it long ago, but I
was ashamed to writo home, but I've
come to it at last. I left Chicago last
night an' will be at home Saturday.
Ifjou ever take a notion to tramp
take my advice prompted by experi
ence and don't do it"
Then the train pulled out and the
youthful vagabond sped on toward
the setting sun.
