Talks to Policeman.

No, 1 will not give his number, but
| have talked with one of Your police
man quite recently. We discussed q
subject that was at one time of Vita
interest to the whole city of Americas
and chatted for some minutes. am
prepared to state the exact subject.
the time of day to the minute, the place
and all about it, but not in this issue
of the paper. 1t may be that the above
will be sufficient to jog his memory,
however.
| do not know who was driving auto
2i782 at 10 A. NJ, on Cotton Avenue
yesterday morning, but she made me
step lively as I crossed the street just
in front Of the car, ard if the elderly
lady near leading hotel yesterday af
ternoon will recall the gentleman wh2
picked up from the sidewalk her hand
kerchief, handing it to her, she will
remember Sherlock Holmes Jr. Now
folks, if l am not giving you some
pretty strong tips rather early in the
game, then I simply do not know how
Of course, am. not going to stand on q

will pick me up.

Well, you have the phrase, so what's
the matter?
l am city broke, don't run away, shy
CT bite, so when ever you are ready,
come right along in the waters fine.
I did not use any particular care
yesterday afternoon or last niiht in
getting about. To be perfectly honest
about It, I am perfectly willing to be
captured whenever you think you can
do it, and that l was not caught last
night is indeed a surprise, especially
as there is a little matter Of $500 in
solved. No, fifteen dollars ig not much
money as money goes, at the same
time, it might come in handy in A
pinch and this amount is being held by
the Times-Recorder to the first (white)
man, woman or child who makes my
identity known in the proper manner
Which is as follows; hold the last issue

Likes Flowers,

One was dressed in blue the other
black and they both wore large boquets
street yesterday afternoon. Why on
earth don't more women wear flowers !?
| can write such easy descriptions
when they do. But flowers were in
tended for women to wear anyway,
and why on earth they stick then in
vases back hum" where nobody can
see them, instead of wearing them for
the benefit of those who like them has
always been a mystery to me. But
women are funny things aren't they?
The other day in a store, one was look
ing at bolt of cloth and then wound
up by buying spool of number sixty
white thread. Wouldn't that twist
your trolley? If she went out for an
elephant, | presume she would wind
UP with doodle bug,
l was talking with an Atlanta man
last night. How did discover he was
from AtlarIa How do you know a
brick wall when you walk into one? If
ycu want to make an Atlanta man
throw little fit and then fall back in
It, Just whisper birmingham and
then call an officer for protection.

for yours truly.

for yours truly.
While in the post office yesterday
morning an old darkey that looked a
bit like a parson, asked me the time,
and several gentlemen spoke to me as
| stood for several minutes on the
steps, and last night, when buying a
cigar at place on Lamar street, 4
young fellow eyed me suspiciously,
and while he was right up against the
money he failed to cop it. Sorry Bud
die, but it was not my fault. I might
make the same remark of a certain
young lady cashier. Evidently she
does not suspect me, for if she does
she certainly shows no evidence of it.
l walked into picture show las
hight, stood about the streets for some
little time and made myself at home
| have promised to visit several places
Of public interest while here, and I
have already made good on some of
them. Take it from he, I am going to
prove every assertion I make in my
own good time, for unlike the very
mysterious man. you had in your
city some years ago, I do not put any
time limits on you but you are perfect
y welcome to get the money when
ever you feel like it.

p. S.-By-the-way, and after al
the above had been prepared for your
Sunday morning breakfast, l was
caught-yes, properly attached The
lrize of $500 was paid by the Times
Recorder to Paul PLANES, a Greek
with the Royal Cafe, who approached
me with the proper phrase and the
Times-Recorder of Friday afternoon.
Ii was easy, and you might have been
first.
Well come back to see you some
OF these days, and you'll get another
chance at us. Until then, bye-bye.

Says She Is Pretty.

She was too pretty to live and en-.
tirely too sweet to die dressed in blue
silk, little red hat with red flowers on
the front as she crossed Lamar street
at Jackson yesterday walking with her
friend. Even those few little red flow
crs on the hat looked better than none
az all.
l have a message wanting to know
It | intend to get married in Americas.
Oh, just fancy! I would recline in the
drawing room upon a divan of luxur-
ious proportions while Duckie Chats
what I'll call herr drapes herself
gracefully over the baby grand piano
stool, and sings a classic little ditty
something like "Peeping through the
knot-hole in papa's wooden leg" ano
The butler announces that tea is served
ard then, but what's the use? I iuss
get completely overcome With tintin
incubation whenever I think about it
Married? I've got my fingers crossed,

been specializing heavily the last year.

from five to as much as ten points.
Some spec!alties showed great depre-

so that their net losses were only from
one to TWO points.
Liquidation was urgent and poured
into the large brokerage firms from
1ff parts OF the country, Particularly
from the West, in the late afternoon.
The rush to sell shares continued right
up to the close OF the session and re-
suited in total transactions OF nearly
$500 900 shares. or the greatest vol
ume to change hands in any 1--WE hours
session on the Stock Exchange since
the 1907 panic. Large brokerage
houses were crowded with customers,
many OF whom. unable to meet the
calls for more margin by their brokers,
saw their accounts closed out. These
houses were also the scenes of much
excitement The violent drop in quo
tations was a great strain on most
SPECTATORS. IN one mousse a man
tainted. while in another man died
suddenly.
Clerks Taxed to Utmost.
The clerical forces of the big broker
age firms were taxed to their utmost,
and brokers could not get their lunch
until after o'clock, when the market
closed.
Transactions were so heavy that the
tape was twenty-five minutes behind
actual sales on the floor of the ex-
change. so that there was much com
plant by customers nj the prices re-
cesved on sales the quotations being
much under those that prevailed on
the ticker when the orders to sell had
been given. The clerical forces Of the
brokerage houses worked practically
all OF the night unravehng and
strengthening out the days business.
The clerks were also busy going over
the books and sending out calls for
margins to those people who would
have to be sold out tomorrow unless
they come forward with additional
funds
In the last hour when liquidation
was the most urgent and prices the
weakest, the ticker was SO busy re-
cording the stock sales that the trans
actions In bonds were not printed on
the tape until all the stock sales had
been recorded.
