About ten o'clock last night persons
living on Washington street might have
seen man attired in red shirt and white
unmentionables, hatless and shoeless, fly.
ing like the wind toward the west. His
destination was the stationhouse, and
when he reached il he was nearly ex-
hausted and trembled like leaf He
said he had been walked from sound
sleep short while before and on opening
his eyes beheld a man bending over him
with drawn knife in his hand and his
eyes fairly lit up with the fires of ven
geance He had begged them TO let him
get one more drink of good old whisky
straight before he went TO the other world.
They finally agreed and he took advan-
tage of the opportunity to escape. 1t was
evidently case of snakes and the man
was locked up. Officer Condor went to
his clearinghouse, Mrs. Joyee's, near
the bayou on Washington and procured
him some clothing He was calmer to-
day and was discharged.

a strange Frealk.

The clerks IN Renkert's drug store, on
upper Main street, we're startled yesterday
when young man formerly employed rs
a clerk At Jones drug store walked in be-
hind the counter, and, snatching bottle
Of poison, pulled the stopper and applied
il 70 his lips. They succeeded In taking
the drug from him before he could swaI-
low any Of II, and he Immediately left the
place. Going 10 a saloon across the way
he procured q drink and returned, with
the evident intention Of trying II over
again, but was 90 closely watched he did
not succeed. Whisky was probably the
cause.

The GIndintor.

When John West was called in for trial
this morning. solemn hush pervaded the
courtroom. The door leading from the
prison was slowly swung open, and a
figure attired in an army blanket, with
bare arms and bare feet, strobe into the
arena When he opened his mouth the
gladiator vanished, and only poor John
West, half-witted, drunken fool, stood
before His Honor. The poor fellow has
been arrested twenty times in the last two
years, and on several occasions has torn
all the clothing from his person. In half
an hour after he was locked up last night
he was as naked as when he came into the
world. lie was put TO work in the prison.

Humpty Dumply's Dodge

Officer Mccormick had an experience,
about four o'clock this morning, very
much like that of the bluecoat in Humpty
Dumpty. While patroling his beat in
Chelsea he discovered a darby hurrying
along with sack on his shoulder and
ordered him to stop. A clean pair of
heels were his answer, and though pistol
shot brought down the bag it did not stop
the fugitive. While Mccormick was
examining the sack, which he found to
contain turnips, he saw another black face
peep around the corner and suddenly dis
appear. Mccormick gave chase and this
time bagged bag Of coal and got his man,
whose name appears as Reuben Smellon.
