a Bouncer Bounced.

He was handsome young man
and looked fine when, yesterday, he
handed letter to the Marshal from
a prominent saloon man who wanted
"bearer" to have a commission as
special officer to act as 'boupcer" at
the expense of the petitioner and in
his saloon.
Marshal Brown looked at the man
after reading the letter and express
cd a doubt as to his ability to
"bounce" people. The answer was
that wrestling was his iavorite pas.
time, and that there we're not many
people around in this part of the
globe who could down him.
The applicant for the position Of
"bouncer" was sent to the police
gymnasium and after a while the
Marshal appeared with a slim Chi
nese, who is in the department Of
the Humane officer.
"Dash it," says Brown, 81 can't
find a good-sized officer around, but
try this little pake and show to me
how you will bounce people in that
saloon"
The Chinaman appeared scared
and then there was a cloud in the
air aud the bouncer fell to the
ground Con matsress), the most
surprised man ever seen. The pake
grinned and his boss tried to stiille
her laugh with an advance copy of
the Humane Educator while the
Mars hal looked grieyed,
$50 it again." said Mr.. Brown,
perhaps he took you by surprises"
and once more the. men clinched,
and the Chinaman landed on top OF
his white antagonist
The bouncer is all right, however
He didn't know that the humane
! pake is a professional wrestler, and
it was a put-up job. He will get his
commission and the Marshal had
his laugh.

DIR McGrew was accused tho other

highway robbers would stay away
from his neighborhood; but we
would like to know the name of the

out from it with the same amount

We don't claims that they are infal-

that with proper and gentle treat

of the peace. III Marshal Brown is
DESTROYS of holding his Office, which
we think he is doing so the satisfac-

1t would be hard to explain the

people who go merely to pass the even

situations. The characters Of Dickens,
made alive upon the stage. are inter-

draw the crowd, for the play of oliver

Mr.. Clay Clements Fagin was a

niably his forte. His makeup in the
red hair was suggestive of strength
