THERE WAS SOME
CUSSIN' AND SLAPPIN'

1t is q well known and generally re-
cognized fact that Chief of Police Mike
Davis is a true son of "Ould Ireland"
but not until yesterday afternoon, when
the doughty chief was doing duty as a
witness in the LaPitre case did he give
an exhibition of his nativity which,
while amusing to many. was really the
primary out cropping common to those
who hail from Erin's Isle. The attor
ney for the defense was aggressive in
the extreme; in fact, his persistency
seemed to CRATE upon the nerves of
Chief Davis and irritate him; question
after question was asked, and answered
in turn by Mike, who, with a constant
Iy-groWing desire to tell his story in
his own way, squirmed in his chair and
manifested an air of uneasiness.
Finally after a number of minor
queries had been disposed of, the at
torney for LaPitre, who was on trial
charged with having burglarized the
Panatorium. asked the chief the fol-
lowing question:
Isn't it true, MI Davis that you
cursed the defendant and struck him
in the face at the time he was in the
city jai?r
A surprised look came over the usu-
ally placid countenance of the head of
the police department. and that we'll
known far-aWay look entered his sky
blue eyes He meditated just long
enough to draw full breath, then in
his inimitable Irish brOgue, answered:
"Yis, suppose there was some GUS
sin
But didn't you strike him." persist
ed the attorney.
"Yis," responded Mike; Il slapped
him in the Jaw
Did you strike him in order to draw
confession from him. followed up
the lawyer
NO, l did not. l struck him after he
made his confession
But didn't you curse him in an eff
fort to intimidate him and make him
confess
NO: l jist tould We that 1 slapped
him in the jaw afther he had made the
confession"
were responded to with a gradually
heightening color, the chief was eX
cused, but the examination of the at
torney told upon him, and for several
moments after resuming his seat, his
determined chin had even a more
marked set" and his jOvial smile was
gone.
