The Excursion Bum.
Dear Editor:—l boarded one of
the excursion trains recently for
an outing to the Sen-shore. \\ hen
L arrived at the depot, there was a
crowd of young gulloots cutting
the air with their vulgarity and
cigarettes 1 asked my wife and I
daughter to return home, as I '
knew that such a bunch of toughs
would have do regard for them
selves or anyone else. This prov
ed true on our way down. They
would get off at every stop, and
run through the train between
stations, with their vulgar man
ners in evidence. As soon as the
train pulled into the depot at Sav
annah they rushed out, showing
no regard for others, and hit the
first dive they found. Strange
such cattle know where the dives
are Tanked up, and from then
for the balance of the day they
were in evidence, drunk, smoking
cigaretts and using foul language.
But they reserveed their stock of
yallerlegism for the return trip,
when they would have made the
barbarians of the dark ages burn
with envy, to see how' deficient
they were in comparison with a
Georgia yallerleg on a drunk rid
ing on a cheap rate ticket. ’Tis
where ladies with safety cannot
go on account of these heathens .
I was extremely anxious for my
wife and daughter to make the
trip, but would not have them ex
posed to this class of degenerates
for innumerable trips. Cannot you
as public instructor, point out the
degeneracy of these vagabonds,
and those who have parents, pre
vail upon them to keep them at
home, and spare the public, and
save their careless parential train
ing being exposed to the disgusted
public? They are a nuisance on
the train, at the resorts and on the
streets, and no oue getting any
benefit from it except the keepers
of the lowest dives for the destruc
tion of the young and depraved.
Give this publicity if you care
to. and tis to be hoped it may im
prove some who are not too far
gone in degradation.
Yours for better manners,
Niptah.
