Three Insane Convicts.

Three Insane Convicts.
 The State Board of Penitentiary Commissioners, in session this week, will be asked to transfer from the state convict farm three insane negro conyicts, Charles Stuckey, James Kidd and Andrew Harris. All three convicts are extremely vicious and it is neces- sary to keep them confined to their cells to prevent them from doing bodi- ly injury to others. Andrew Harris, sent from Jefferson county for ten years for assault to kill, is the most dangerous of the insane trio. About a month ago he killed another negro convict by striking him on the head and fpacturing his skull with an iron bar. Charles Stuckey, serving a sen tence of five years for grand larceny. assaulted Dr. R. L, Russell, the penl- tentiary physician, recently, and but for timely assistance he might have been seriously if not fatally injured. James Kidd, the third insane negro convict, is serving a 21-year sentence for assault. The law providing for the transfer of insane convicts to the asy- lufll was enacted by the recent legis- latafe. It provides that the recommen- dalton for such transfer must first be made by the penitentiary physician to the superintendent and, if approved by the latter, he shall recommend favor able action by the board. The super | intendent of the State Hospital for Nervous Diseases is required to accept such insane convicts when so ordered by the Penitentiary Board.

 (Csor1s v. HobarO

Boys! let me put you wise! u you want to keep off the griddle don't ever try to show your shy little lady friend how the birdies sing in "Bohemia"
 You'll get stung If you do.
 For the past six months Clara Jane has been handing out hints that shed like to have me take her down the line and let her Oh, listen to the band! fin one of those real devilish New York restaurants.
 She intimated that she'd like to sit in the grand stand and hold the watch on those who are going the pace that kills.
 She wanted to know if thought she could toy with tenderloin steak fin a careless cafe without getting the cali down from Uncle William.
 Clara Jane's Uncle William hands out the lesson leaflets in Sunday school and wrestles the Golden Rule to a finish every Sabbath.
 During the week he conducts fire sale.
 I told her I thought she could and she was pleased.
 'I'm just crazy to take lunch, some Sime, among the Bohemians!" she gurgled.
 told her I thought she'd have a happier time if we tramped down to the tunnel and butted in among the Italians just as the 12 o'clock whistle blew, and she threw both lamps at me good and hard.
 A few days ago I took her to the matinee at "The New York" where you have to pinch off only 50 cents and then you're entitled to slosh around in parlor furniture and eat up about eight dollars worth of comedy.
 That New York" thing is immense believe me!
 Everything else has faded away.
 After the show we thought we'd pat the pave for few blocks and who should we run into but Bud Phillips.
 Bud belongs to the Grand Lodge of Good Fellows.
 So far as can size him up the Good Fellow puts in 12 hours a day trying to stab himself to death with gin rickeys, and the other 12 are de voted to yelling for help and ice water.
 This is not tap on the door. Nix on the knock.
 It isn't my cue to aim the hammer
 When 1t comes to falling off the water wagon I can do a bit of g

that gets loud hand from all the members of the High Tide association. So nix on the knock.
 His father cut out the breathing business about two years ago and left v Bud $100,000 and long dry spell on the inside.
 Bud has been in the lake ever since.
 "As you were!" said Bud. Why, it's John Henry! touch thumbs, old pal?" and then in side speech he wanted to know what troupe the sou brette was cutting-up with.
 If Clara Jane had heard him my finish would have hopped over the fence then and there.
 But she didn't, so introduced them and quietly tipped Bud off to the fact that 1t will be case of wedding bells when Willie gets wad-be nice! be nice!
 And Bud woke up to the occasion.
 You to the carryall!" he said. "I'll float you down to Muttheimer's and we'll get busy with the beans!"
 He's out to cough for a few cook ACoS OAPioiAO0 CO SldI JduO.
 T never heard of Muttheimer's be- fore" said Clara Jane, on the side.
 Your luck has given you thrown down." said.
 But do hope it's Bohemian" she sighed.
 "Sure!" I said. I hated to break her heart.
 Muttheimer's is one of those eat cries where the walters look wise be- cause they can't speak English.
 If you ask them question they bark at you in German.
 It's supposed to be Bohemian be- cause there's sawdust on the floor and the flies wear pajamas and say, "Pro- sit!" before falling in the stuff that you swallow to-day and taste to-mor- row.
 Bud punches his hits on the bell and the low-forehead has a Fitzsimmons hug on the order when Ikey Mincen- pizenstein crawls into the harbor and drops anchor at our table.

 |. Tom Barclay waltzed into the sub way, saw me and in a minute he was making the break of his life.
 Why, hello, John Henry!" said Tom, "say, saw her to-day = and she's immense! You've got a great eye, old man!"
 I tossed off a few wicked winks on that great eye of mine but Tom went right along to the funeral.
 Lizzie B. is a peach, John Henry! You've got the eye for the good girls, all right, all right!" he chortled.
 Clara Jane began to freeze.
 I felt like boiled potato in the hands of an Irish policeman.
 She's every bit to the good, old man!" Tom turned it on again; "she makes all the other birds chatter in the cage. And her feet-did you ever see such feet?"
 I looked at Clara Jane's face, but there was no light in the window for me.
 You certainly picked out warm proposition when you put your arms around Lizzie B. and I'm your friend for life for hauling me up in the char tot with you-whatu you have?" croaked Tom.
