CHICHESTER S PILLS
fj
This ‘ ‘ Cop' ’ is Friend
Of the Children.
‘ There is a policeman in Atlanta,”
said a business man on the car this
morning, “who certainly has made a hit
with children living on his beat. He
carries a big jackknife that he's al
ways ready to lend to any boy; ha's a
key to tighten roller skates and arbi
trates cnildish disputes In the neigh
borhood. The children obey him to the
very letter. He never has any trpuble
with them, and their mothers have Just
about turned the matter of training over
to this good natured officer.
“Not long ago this policeman fell ill
and there was consternation among the
children on his beat. The second day
he was missing from his old haunts a
delegation of boys and girls, each with
a small bouquet, called at the sick of
ficer's home with a message of hope
that he would soon be well. And he
told me yesterday that his recovery
from that time was rapid, i think it
would break his heart if he should be
transferred to some other beat. He’s
married and had two children, but both
of them died, and I suppose that is why
he is so fond of the youngsters on his
beat. He calls them all “his kids.' and
they look up to him as they wbuld a
big brother of whom they are very
He Drew the Line
At Foreman ’s Dog.
While waiting for the curtain to ring
up on the first number, one of the
comedians at the Forsyth this week
told this story in the green room last
night:
“Pat had been at work for three days
digging a well, and as the foreman
wanted it finished within the week he
had promised Pat another man to help
him. It was getting on to 11 o’clock,
and Towser, the. foreman's bulldog, was
looking over the edge of the pit, when
Pat said to himself, ‘I’ll have a smoke.’
“He had filled his pipe and was about
to light it. when he glanced up and be
held Towser's handsome features.
“Slowly removing his pipe from his
mouth, he said:
“ 'Be-gorra, Gi ve wor-rked wid Ger
mans and Hoongarians and Oi-ve worked
wid Oitalians, but if a man wid a face
like that comes down here to work be
side me Oi gets up.’ ”
Judge Swooned
At This Answer.
When Atlanta lawyers get together
at the court house a good many anec
dotes and humorous stories are told.
Here’s one that a well known attorney
told the other morning while waiting for
court to open:
“Taking the witness in hand the law
yer for the defense cast upon him the
piercing eye and asked:
“ ‘Dio you have your nails polished
by a blonde lady on Tuesday morning?'
“ 'I refuse to answer,’ was the prompt
reply of the witness.
' ‘Didn’t you have your hands mas
saged by the same blonde lady on Wed
nesday afternoon?’ was the next ques
tion of the lawyer.
“ T refuse to answer.’ said the wit
ness. emphatically.
“ ’Didn’t you have your nails polished
by the same blonde lady on Thursday
afternoon?’ persisted the lawyer
“ 'I refuse to answer,’ came defiantly
from the witness.
“ ’.Just a moment. interjected the
judge, with a stern glance at the wit
ness. ‘Why do you refuse to answer?’
“ ‘Because,’ was the smiling reply of
the witness, ‘he asks too manlcurious
questions.’ ”

IN PORTUGAL'S
Conspiracy Similar to That Which
Resulted in King Manuel’s
Overthrow Exposed.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
MADRID, \pril 30.—A conspiracy
in the Portuguese navy, similar to
that which resulted in the overthrow
of King Manuel and the setting up of
a republic in Portugal, was discovered
to-da\. according to a telegram from
Lisbon.
Seven sailors on board the Portu
guese cruiser Sao Gabriel in the Te-
gus Harbor were arrested while try
ing _to_ signal friends on shore, and
later one «>f them confes^d that a
plot '‘xisted to turn the navy into the
hands of the royalists.
A Government message said that
order had been restored, following
three days of intermittent rioting, but
admitteo that the situation still is
critical.
Shortly aj’ter midnight a number of
small boats filled with armed civilians
surrounded the cruiser Republica and
attempted to rescue the military and
political prisoners on board. Sentries
on the ship fired upon the would-be
rescuers and the boats drew.off in
disorder.
