REMARKABLE MAN EATS FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS OF GLA8S. From The San Francisco Chronicle. Noboilv knows his name, yet every body In Kennewick. Wash., Is acquaint ed with him.

Tim Is a stalwart fellow, and a veri table giant, 6 feet 5 Inches tall, heavy In proportion, with great, broad, pow erful shoulders that look os though they could furnish a force sufficient to put several Jiin Jeffries out of busi ness without the least exertion. Tim only wears a No. 14 shoe, spe cially made to order, and has a hand big enough to cover nn ordinary saucer.

Bryan's daughter, Mrs. Ruth Bryan- Leavitt, has written a playlet entitled "Mrs. 8. Holmes, Detective,” which Is to be presented this week at Keith's & Proctor's' Union Square theater, by Maud Turner Gordon and company. Air. Brynn has promised hla daughter that one of the first things he will do after reaching New York will be to see the play. It Is expected he will be on hand Friday evening. August SI. tributes his murvelous strength 81 .... fact that he has eaten glass ever since a small boy In Ireland. When Irish Tim made his appearance In Kennewick he caused the natives to Imagine suddenly that they had all gone crazy, and were "seeln' things.” The first extraordinary thing the big fellow tlld was to go into a grocery' store and purchase a half dozen glass tumblers. Then he strolled lelsureiy out to the curb of the plank sidewalk, sat down, opened'up the bundle, and proceeded to devour the glasses much as a schoolboy devours his noonday lunch. A good-slxed crowd had soon accumulated, and, of course, everybody thought nt first that he was workfng off a little of Hermann legerdemain. But Tim sat there ns Indifferent to their gnxe and crltclsms as nn as tronomer to the maneuvers of an ant colony. When he had devoured the last of the six tumblers he arose slow ly, smacked his lips, looked around to see that he had left no scraps and sauntered into a nearby saloon In search of a "chaser.” Of course, the bartender wouldn’t accept payment from a man who could draw such n large crowd as Tim had done, so the big fellow got his drink for nothing. But when the fellow behind the bar cast his eye around for the whisky glass, It had followed the chaser. Tim was cracking up the last bit of It be tween his teeth, nnd swallowing It in morsels that were evidently sweet. "That’s the kind of glass." said Tim. "that makes me think of home. Over in the grooerv store, there, all they had was them big* tumblers. Sure, and they're a bit hard on your gums. but. then. I've eaten so much glass thnt 1 seldom cut myself," he added, smiling. "You see, I started In when I was Just a sprawlin' brat over in the old coun try. I used to steal my mother's Jelly and Jam. and then eat up the glasses to make her think somebody had stolen the whole business. •Yes, 1 guess that's ths way I got the habit. I recollect, when a kid, ot.e o’ the boys bet me a piece of money I couldn’t eat a chunk o* glass, so I bet him on It. I ate a very small piece, and chewed It up carefully. Glass Is not hard stuff, and is easily ground between the teeth If one Is not afraid of It. Well, I won that bet. anyway, and for twenty-four hours awaited the results anxiously. Strange as It may sound to some of you fellows, I had a ravenous appetite the next day. and yjou Can Save &ime and trouble BY 'PHONING YOUR M)m6 ,c$d$ &•••••#(•••(•••••••(••«•••(••••••(•••(••••••••••••• &Q &he Georgian, • i ■ WE WILL CHARGE AND COLLECT LATER.
