OAKLAND. Dec. A.-Chief Of Police

place of employment last Monday night.
On Thursday night some one tele-
phoned from a saloon on Eighth street
and told the police that he had run tile
girl down with bicycle accidentally. The
telephoner was not ready to give his name
nor details, but agreed to call at the CITY
Prison to-day and clear up the mystery.
He has not put in an appearance, and not

GOLD TOOTH A HIDING PLACE.
A Criminal Who Hid Saws in Tooth
and Eve

Speaking of out-of-the-way places for
hiding saws said Detective Bryant at
police headquarters recently. after read
ing that Detective O'Hare had found
three saws in the wooden leg of a prisoner
at the old Jail after looking everywhere
in the cell for weeks for them, 'I have
a story that will beat that one all to
pieces. And IL is true. furthermore" and
Bryant laughed, as much as TO say that
Detective O'Hare is given TO dreaming.
Harry Herrington-Gold Tooth Harry
they call him-is one of the best sneak
thieves there is in the Western country,
and a smoother man never lived. / ar
rested him two weeks ago. and where do
you think we found saws on him? He
had three saws in a hollow tooth, and be-
hind his glass eye-I forgot to say Her
rington is often referred to as Blinky be-
cause of his glass eye-we found the saw
bow:
blades and bow were not large. but they
were of the finest tempered steel and
could have cut through the best chilled
steel bars in the world. The blades had
been made from watchspringS and were
scarcely an inch long. But they were
saws all right enough, and the kind that
many n criminal has prayed for after
the police have nabbed him and his
friends can't get bail. They are almost
as good as ball for any man behind the
bars and nothing TO do but saw away the
time and the bars. Gold Tooth doth not
make practice of carrying these saws
IN his hollow teeth. but in pinch he can
shift them from his pocket and conceal
them there without detection. He never
carries more than three saws.
THE bow. which he had concealed in
his eye socket. was even smaller than the
blades. IL was made so that il could be
doubled by means of a tiny hinge, and
was altogether the most perfect arrange
ment | ever saw. The blades fitted into
the bow by a niche.
When ! arrested Harry had been told
TO look him over well for saws. / could
find none in his pockets, and would have
found none, but he fell TO talking and
the saws dropped from his tooth and cut
his tongue. He gave them up then. and
later he showed me the bow in his eve
socket. / took that away from him also.
The saws and the bow are now in the
curio department in the inspectors room"
