Booth Tucker Goes Stunning With Steve
Brodie.

New York, April 30.-Frederick Del
atour Booth-Tucker, the new Alex
ander of the Salvation Army forces in
this country, was sauntering through
Chinatown late Tuesday night. in set
Of glossy brown Hester street whiskers.
He was stunning.
At his side trudged short, thick set
man in a pearl overcoat that started
the joss house idols shivering
This was Steve Brodie.
In such inapenetrable disguises these
two on-hearted men braved the opium
sodden purlieus of Mott street.
Booth-Tucker's whiskers proved the
great Salvationist's undoing in the end
He had no sooner left Brodie's Bowery
saloon on his Summing tour than a
dozen policemen "twigged" to him. BY
the time the commander had reached
the joss house at No. l6 Mott street
the neighborhood was populous with
policemen in and out of uniform.
On leaving the joss house, where
the commander had bought package
of incense paper. drank cup of tea
and tried to drum a Salvation Army
march upon the sacred drum in the
temple of Joss, for which sacrilege he
nearly lost his whiskers, his escort pi-
loted him around Bayard street, where
the policemen captured him and led
him and BrOdie gently to the nearest
police station.
Booth-Tucker lined up before the
desk, hat off. disclosing wig of eats
tails that -flared around his head like
the aureole of a prosecuted push-cart
man. His whiskers made the sergeant
laugh. Very sadly Brodie raised his
hand and tore the wig off; then he
unlocked the whiskers. and the leader
Of the Salvatonists stood forth in all
his native blond majesty. He smiled
in heroic sort of a way and looked at
steve as If seeking his approval.

geant.

softly, and further replied that he re-
sided at No. l20 West Fourteenth
street. A policeman explained the mat
ter OF Whiskers and searched the pris-
oner for concealed weapons. Then he
was led back and locked up in a cell.
He took off his overcoat. made up
pillow for his head and stretched him
self on the hard bench to sleep. He
smiled like a martyr
