somewhere from q certain place some
kind Of a d0g by express. But some
where in the midst OF the journey tie

Readers Of this column may begin 10
suspect that man Is tag-eating
animal and thus becomes the most lost
of all animate creation. John y.
Millihan ate up his tag last week,
and got lost. He had been drinking
heavily, of late, and Sunday morning
he got into an alteration with a gang
of roughs all imaginary at the corner
of East Bridge and Lafayette-sts., and
was we'll into the business Of cleaning
them out when the patrol wagon ar
rived. He was taken over 10 Colonel
Bishops, and had been there about an
hour, when his friend, Allen, came
and took him away, after becoming
surety for disappearance IN themorning.
In court, yesterday morning, he pleaded
guilty to the charge OF intoxication,
paid the usual S5.35, and departed. He
is said 10 be a gentleman of refinement
and capacity, when he does not lose
himself. and many friends will be sorry
for his fall.

There are men who coerce attention
by their very appearance. Patroiman
Gill says It was this that first put hlm
III the way OF catching on TO Jimmy
Mcmahon. \ look at Jimmy Is sutfi-
cient to convince the behoder that he
is king among men of MS OrdeE. He
was neither naked nor clothed bare
foot nor shOd, and hOodwirF 'd TO
blindness 10y that ophthalmIc paralysis,
known as dead drunk; in which condi-
ton he was brought TO the hack door
of police headquarters and kept there
until he was nearly sober enough to be
dragged up stairs for sentence. Jimmy
didn't want TO 90 to jail, and after q
tough cxpOstulatOry scufilC, succeeded
in getting off by the payment of the
last cent he had, amounting to S4.50.
This young man, Thomas Torey, is
not too old TO turn his attention TO a

pen at 1915 o'clock Sunday morning.
He pleaded guilty in court with all the
nonChalance of an old soldier, paid the
regular taxes, and walked out OF court
with no more depth of feeling than if
he had lost nothing more than paltrv
sum OF S5.35.

way the record reads opposite them
both.
