by Day and Night.

1t is a subject of general remark that
Memphis becomes completely metamor-
phosed at night, so far as the forms and
faces of persons seen on the street is
concerned. 1t may be that the gaslight
gives suspicious shade to the human
face divine, and throws garish reAec-
ton on humanity. Be that as it may, it
looks as if there are hundreds of men dug
up at night for the purpose of disappear
| ing like ghosts when the rooster crows
for day. There are certain localities
and street corners in this city where
nightly assemble a collection of bad
and repulsive faces. A timid traveller
instinctively puts his hand on his pocket
although that pocket may be innocent
of nickel, when he passes through
such crowd, or he mechanically feels
to be certain that the handle Of his six
shooter is free of all distractions.
Where do these come from at night and
where do they go in day timer This
question can only be solved by an indie
fatigable hunter after natural curiosities.
The same faces can be seen fitting in
and out from little saloons, little cigar
stores, little restaurants, and can be
found invariably around the attractive
tables of keno-room. If the face is
an index to the mind, what a curious
mental machine is run by these fellows
If honesty exists within their breasts,
honesty should make her mark in palmer
letters on the face, and not pernit her
self to be compromised by the we'll
known handwriting of crime. You see
occasionally a police officer walk into
such crowds and say to facet "You
are wanted" The face follows him to
the station-house, and seems to be at
home henlooking through the bars, or
doggedly presiding above the scraper or
broom so scientifically handled by each
member of the chain-gang.

The last number Of the Police News
contains a wood-cut of the Magnolia
Garden homicide, wherein Captain Ed
Burr was shot and killed by Luke Pad
den. The representation is sensational.
The men and women Of the period look
like startled deer. The dead man is
lying on the floor, while a rough bends
over him searching his pockets, and
Luke Padden stands above the corpse
with pistol in his hand and cigar be-
tween his teeth. Next week there will
be series of pictures in the pictorials
devoted exclusively to Memphis scenes
and incidents. 4sa
