CAPTAIN WILLIAMS IN A NEW ROLE

To EDITOR OF HERALD
About midnight few evenings since, while at
Parker's restaurant. Sixth avenue, Police Captain
Williams was entertaining few kindred spirits with
an exhibition OF an obscene engraving, which he SAID
no had taken from prisoner at his station house.
Just then five gentlemen entered the saloon, ono OF
whom had previously incurred the dispcasuro OF the
Captain. On presenting themselves and before having
given any order Captain Williams IN loud auhors
tones, instructed tho barKcoper 10 ''Sell no
liquor over tho bar. I" The obnoxious individual
informed tho Captain that he only Tor cigar
he not drinking, and asked Mr. Parker II he could
have cigar who replied, 'Cerainly you can have a
cigar. The remainder Of the party retired from tho
saloon and not waited upon Tho inference Is
that Parker owns tho cigar stand and Captain Williams
runs the bar. The above Is as true as GOSPEL.
