The coppers in front of Henrici's
were playing 'Tag, you're it," and
who's loony now?" all day yester-
day to the vast amusement of the
curious on the street and the indig-
nation of mattresses arrested while
peacefully walking up and down.
These games, as played by the rep
resentatives of the law, consist of a
spasmodic reaching after a waitress
whenever the cop feels twitching

it is dangerous one to tag a slender |
girl picket. The cop with the spas
modic twitch is always backed up by |
several plain clothes men if he is in |
uniform and several brass buttons
if he is in plain clothes.
After the tagging, the army of fat |
huskies escort the one or two little |
girls down the street, bawling loudly: |
Keep out of the way there, move
on" And the citizens are ruthlessly
pushed right and left by the husky |
bodyguard of the twitching cop.
On the corner of Clark and Ran

At the evening vaudeville perform
ance Officer No. S13 came on duty

No. S13 acknowledges the name of
Mike Hurley, and Mike has the
twitches very bad. He got two girls
just like that-'tag, you're it."
These he had taken to the Harri-
son street police station and then he
went back and secured three others
by the same method. His bodyguard
was very large and handsome. Some
brunettes, few stately blends, and
others.
The vaudeville was held on the cor

the Handsome Tango dancer went
out in the street and scolded real hard

another of his discoveries. Moreover,

on CROSSED BAYONETS.

Marshal Junot was a notable figure
in the Napoleonic wars. If record s
can be relied on, his fellow soldiers
elected him sergeant on the battlefield,
afterward carrying him aloft on an
improvised seat of crossed bGyonets,
for q conspicuous act of bravery.
A little later he was ordered By Ma
poleon to divest himself of his uniform
and 90 among the enemy as a spy.
Though threatened with death for dis
obedience, Junot refused TO 60 at all
unless as soldier in his uniform.
Napoleon was highly pleased at the
frmness thus displayed, and did not
forget it.
A short time afterward he sent for
Junot to write a dispatch for him, and
while this was being done a she'll eX-
ploded a few yards away. This had
not the least effect on the writer, who
coolly continued his work, remarking:
AT least, we shall hot want sand TO
dry the ink"
Napoleon became quite captivated by
the GOODNESS and courage shown by
Junot, and at the first opportunity
nominated him as his aide-de-camp.
Still higher honors were In store for
him. and he finally became a marshal
of the Grand Army of France.
