Cornelius Trice, the Tacoma detective,
whose work among the opium smugglers
of I ugot sound is well known, can stand
on Market street in the rain longer, and
tell longer, more prolablo and more in
teresting stories than any man in San
Francisco.
"Did you ever hear that I had served
my time in the chain gang?" he inquired
of Ictcctive I land ley one day last week.
'No? Well, I'll give it to you so that you
will get it straight. It was when these
men were running in so much of their
opium all around the sound that I finally
located some of the workers at a little
landingnlxiut twenty miles from Tacoma,
where there are alxmt a dozen houses.
My wife was there at the time visiting
friends, but I did not have timo to ap
prise her of my coming. I made myself
up ns tuo seediest kind of a tramp, and
footed it into this little place lust at
dusk, and nearly the first ntsoii I met
was my wife. I forgot ntxmt my dis
guise and tho effect it might have upon
her; so I braced tin, and, taking her by
the arm. said. 'Hello, mv dearl
"When she gave a jump and screamed
I thought 1 had simply startled her iy
sneaking suddenly when the wnsn t ex
IK-cting it, so I started to take her arm
again, and bless mo if she didn't go up
tho street screaming at every step,
Alxmt that time the constable grabbed
me for insulting ladies on the street, but
when my wife declined to apix'ar and
prosecute they put an additional charge
of vagrancy against me and locked me
up in a little calaroose. jsext day l
was found guilty and sentenced to eight
days in the chain gang with no alterna
tive, and I didn't dare let tho officials
know who I was, lx?caiiso I had reason
to believe they were concerned in the

"A Man" in Captiule.
The problem of being able to "see a
man during the play without being
obliged to walk on the toes of half a
dozen gentlemen, and, erchanee, on the
dresses of several ladies, has been solved.
Those to whom the drink in the entr'act
is an essential part of their enjoyment of
a ierformance can now, without leaving
their seats, indulge n their libations, A
clever lloston chemist has struck on the
idea of having whisky handy and other
strong liquors put up in gelatine capsules
1IKC loose useu in uuiiiiiiimi'uji uuuaur
ous medicines, only considerably larger,
The capsules are colored so as to resem
ble largo hot house graix-s. They are
easily broken in the mouth und the con
tents swallowed without attracting at
tention. The capsules are sold in boxes
containing a dozen each. The box is of
convenient size for the pocket, and the
quantity of liquor contamed in the cap
sules sufficient to make the ordinary man
feel comfortably happy by the time the
curtain falls on the last uct.
The idea b not altogether an original
one. About two years ugo similar cap
sules were sold ?n all the leading drug
stores in Uus city, but instead pf being
gelatine the capsule was pf very thin
rubber. It was soon found that the rub
ber conveved jhp reverse of a pleasant
taste to the liquors, and they rapidly
went out of fashion. Tho new gelatine
capsule imparts no flavor whatever to
tho liquor, and it promises soon to be
come a boon to the gentleman seated in
tho middle of a row of orchestra chairs,
and to ecrn for its inventor the gratitude
of the ladies, whoso plaints crver their
ruined dresses and crushed hats lately
filled so many columns in the papers.

An Old Young Man.
One of the pleasant tsfc old young men
of "Washington is Harvey M.'Watterson,
tho father of Henry Watterson. Imagine
to yourself a talj and slightly built man,
with a large )iead. of gray hair, a white
beard falling over his chest, and a pair
of tho brighest and kindest blue eyes you
will find anywhere. Imagine this man
to bo 73 years old, but at the same time
to move' about wth as finn a step as
though ho was but 3. Listen to hb voice,
and it comes forth in strong chest tones.
Talk to hini and lie will tell yoq that he
feels younger as the years grow older, and
that ho hopes to last for many years yet.
Said Mr. Watterson once In response
to a question:
"Tho first 6ign of a man's failing facul
ties is seen in hb voice. I can go owi the
street and ppeak in such tones as can be
heard 800 yards away, I epend my
winters in Washington and my summers
at Louisville, and while there I look over
tho exchanges in tho newspaper office
and scan about fifty papers a day. I am
glad that I am alive, and I feel that my
good health at this age is due to temper
ance and. in not allowing myself to be
worried about anything. I am very
careful of my eating, and X have not had

and. taking the fish by the tail, he laid

the yawning gullet like a well greased
toboggan, its extended fins raking the
sides with a sort of ripping sound as of
laceration, and sickening to hear. The
feat accomplished, the swallower unbut
toned his shirt collar, gave himself a
flirt and shake, and proclaimed in a loud
voice that he could "swaller a ljv dog
with his tail curled over hb back, catch
as catch can, and no limit to size, for

with tho fear that the passage of a dog

One Wuj to Spoil Wedding Trip.
An amusing incident occurred at the
Union depot of Birmingham. A rather
modest looking groom and bis pretty
bride were sitting delightfully close to
gether, and were going through some of
those lovable little antics which newly
married couples alone can affect. Two
young men were sitting just opposite
waiting to welcome some sweetheart on
tho incoming train. The boys watched
tlio caresses of tho couple for a while,
but finally decided to put a stop to it.
"Tom, said one of the young men to
tho other, "when b your wife coming
home?
'Never, I hope, replied the young
man addressed. "I wish she would elope
with some one, or tho train run off the
bridge with her. By the way, when b
your wife coming home?"
"Pretty soon, I am afraid. When she
does I have a good mind to meet her at
the depot with an ax and give her and
that infernal kid ten minutes to leave in.
A wife is a nuisance, anyway."
The young men kept up this nonsense
for half an hour, and the loving couple
knew that all the conversation was in
tended for their ears. It tickled the
bride immensely, but the groom got hot
ter and hotter, and finally called one of
the young men aside and threatened to
whip him. Thb had the effect of still
ing the fun permanently, and the exult
ttnt groom bravely put his arm around
his treasure and hugged her until the
train carried them away on their bridal
tour. Birmingham (Ala.j aeo.
