contact. He will cheer up the heart of a
youthful offender with words of hOmely
advice, and viii sympathize with men who
are IN prison ON account OF their inability
to furnish bonds-those victims of Kings
county's curious Quasi-crimnal laws
But his chief delight Is in the regular
the unrepentant the incorrgible 'bums."
On this account he has earned his unique
title. He fraternizes with the buns" he
listens to their tales of adventure with
every evidence of enjoyment and, withal,
rules them with a rod of iron.
They walk the chalk line when Jimmie
commands, yet they all look up to and ad-
mire him. For many an old reprObate has
been the richer on leaving Raymond street
because Jimmie had pressed into his hand
some money. Accompanying the gift is in

but even if the bum" comes back and
nearly all of them do, he is welcomed as
though he were newcomer. Jimmie S
acquaintance certainly includes all the
regulars in Kings county, il is safe to say
were he lodged in any similar prison in
the country.
In return for the many good Offices
which Jimmy performs he is allowed the
privilege of trading among the prison.
ers. He sells them tobacco, cigars, sta
tioneTy, ETC., and probably clears many
tidy penny during the course of the
year by this traffic. Not that he over
charges in any instances On the contra
ry his rates are identical with those Of
the shops on the outside. But Raymond
street Jail is full most of the time, and
its inhabitants incline very much to the
use or tobacco.
Part of his money Jimmie has spent in
the adornment of his cell. This is in the
"Murderers' Row" on the second tier
and is fitted up with many evidences of
good taste There is a good carpet on
the floor and several desks and tables.
The walls are hung with pictures, and
they are not all duplicates of the
"Rogues' Gallery" either. Among them
are several Autographs of actresses. In
this room, or cell, Jimmie takes great
pride, and whenever he adds new ar
ticle of furniture all the keepers and
other officials in the jail are summoned
to inspect and pass judgment upon it.
Jimmie does no writing upon his desks,
but he does play cards upon them He
plays solitaire entirely, but it is a serious
matter with him, and he gets very much
excited over the game.
Jimmie is now Sc years old, and prison
life seems to agree with him, though his
activity keeps him lean. He is short
with a rather keen face, hair slightly
gray, and has a bristling mustache. He
always wears jumper and overails ana
coarse shirt and underwear like the in
mates of the penitentiary He is shy Of
strangers and detests reporters, but he
says he is going to get drunk some night
so the magistrate VIII send him 10 Ray
mond street jail. Then he thinks he will
have the laugh on the judge.

JAIL LIFE is TO HIS TASTE.
Jimmie, "ENing of the Bums," Is a
New York Character.
From the New York Press.

From the New York Press
"The King of the Buns" the proud
title by which Jimmie Davis is known.
has been a voluntary inmate Of the Ray
mond street Jail for twenty-one years.
and his ''room." as he calls it, is a cell in
"Murderers' Row"
Jimmie is not prisoner, for he is at
liberty to leave the Jail if he wishes to.
But he prefers to stay and eat the same
food as the prisoners. occupy the cheer
less quarters and submit TO almost the
same kind of discipline.
He is one of the characters of the Kings
county jail-the queerest character within
its granite walls He came over from
ireland, years ago, under the blight, so
tradition says, of a disappointment in
love. What blue-eyed, red-cheeked dam
sci of Erin played him false Jimmie never
has told. But, keen as the wound must
have been, it did not prevent him from
having an adventure with another men,
Der OF the fair sex on this side of the
ocean which does not rebound to mis-
credit. The girl stated her case to the
charities commissioners and Jimmie was
ratified down to the Raymond street iail
in the Black Maria in default of a paltry
$500 bond to insure the payment of 81
week to the county.
This was his first introduction to the
jail. In about six months the county. find
ing he could never give a bond as long as
he was confined. and that in the mean
time he was living at its expense, conclud-
done upon an order from the proper Judi
cial authority. But Jimmie was not to be
gotten rid of SO easily. He had become
accustomed to the life in the Jail and liked
IL so well that after TWO or three DAYS of
liberty he went back and applied to be
taken in again. Laborers CHANGED to be in
demand at that time and ne was given
job, thus clearly outwitting the county
which had been trying to get rid of him
Jimmie has been in Raymond street Jail
ever since with the exception of one day
in each year, when he leaves it to renew
his acquaintance with the outside world
Truth to tell, these brief vacations are
something in the nature of a a spree, for
Jimmie almost invariably returns to the
Jail with a quiet, pleasant Jag on. But
he is always welcome, and could misbe-
have much worse without being turned
away. For he has made himself useful
about the Jail In many ways. In the first
place, he always attends to his regular
duties uninviting as they are, in a very sat
isfactory manner. These consist in the
care of the cells, and often in the care OF
the prisoners. Cleanliness is a virtue con-
snicuous by its rarity among the inmates
of the Raymond street Jail, so Jimmies
labors in this line, as may be imagined
are not agreeable. Then, too, he is in the
confidence of nearly all the prisoners. and
is thus in a position to give valuable In
formation TO the prison officials. Many an
deliberately planned scheme to break jai;
has been nipped in the bud by Jimmie's
timely warning.
In addition to these functions Jimmie
exercises a sort of moral supervision over
the unfortunates with whom he comes in

THEY KILL THE DYING.
Horrible Burial Customs Extant in

In Ching Che Ii, one of the most north

as being beyond all hopes of recovery. The
corpse is Immediately stripped and paint
