The easiest riding wheel con-

 

stantly jars the system-an easy .

, sort of jar, maybe, but the kind
that wears the vital organs. The

constant jarring prevents their .
doing their work properly.

Buker’s Kidney Pills

are a natural remedy and act on
.the Kidneys as sleep acts on the

their functions and remove the

BYRNES’ SUCCESSOR.

’NEw YORK’S HEAD, DETECTIVE
O’BRIEN’S THEORY OF THIEVERY..

 

Gotham no Longer an Asylum. Other
Towns May Hope to Get From Here
Malefactors Whom They Particularly
Want.

The New York World says: In the
midst of all the excise rumpus, it is well
to remember that we have a. new boss
detective. O’Brien is his name and these
are some facts about him. They are
gratifying on the Whole.

He never bought or sold a share of'
stock in his life. He never made any
sort of Wall street deal in his life. He
would not know how. He knows no one
on Wall street and no one know him.

He never drinks and never smokes.

He was born and brought up in New
York.

His front name is Stephen. When he
was a small boy he used to watch the
ladies and gentleman get out of the
Black Maria, and try to remember their
faces. He studied the three card monte
men at Coney Island and could point
them out to young admiring friends.

He is not rich. He does not expect to
become rich. He owns no-fiats, no fast
horses, no farms, no boats.

He says that he would not feel that he
could justly devote himself to the es-
pecial service of a Gould or any other
very rich man, in return‘for private pay
while drawing his salary from the
city.

He is a moderately young}, man, with

his hair brushed up off his‘forehead. He ,

has a good chin, which Byrnes ‘had not,
but his eyes are a little too close to-
gether. Byrnes had not that defect. '

He dresses with care, and does not
wear thick soled boots. This is wonder-
ful for a detective. Almost all detec-
tives wear very thick soles, so that
criminals'may know them on sight.

He is very immaculate as to linen,

and wears a. very small diamond in a" '

This he uses as a. sin-
His evident enjoyment

flat gold button.
gle shirt stud.

_of this very small diamond proves that

he is a man who has not used his place
to accumulate the price of many big
diamonds.

His eyes are not blue enough to be
very goOd, but they are bright and
piercing. ' _

He declares that be means to give in-
dividual detectives credit for their in
dividual work, and not to claim all the
credit himself. This programme, if car-
ried out, will be a. great change in New
York detective methods. It should help
the tone of the whole force.

. Mr. O’Brien has one great and natural

pride. But you can have ten guesses
and. not guess what makes him proud.

He is proud because he has to his
credit 1,000 years of’ sentences. That
means that criminals captured by him
have been sentenced in all to a thou-
sand years of imprisonment. He re-
flects occasionally that he is 'a very
young man. Then he remembers that
criminals of all shapes and sizes are do-
ing and have done a. thousand years of
p:ison work, thanks to his efforts, and
his bosom swells with honest pride.

In his most melancholy moments this
thought cheers him and spurs him on.

_Of course there is a. fly in his ointment

and a crumpled leaf in his bed. He
grinds his teeth occasionally when he
thinks of the suspended sentences hang-
ing over the heads of some of those
whom he has convicted.

If those sentences had been enforced
instead of being suspended his total
would be far and far above a thousand
years.

Mr. O’Brien is not the character that
Thomas Byrnes was as bees detective.
He may acquire Mr. Byrnes’s charm of
manner and of diction, but now he
lacks both. Mr. Byrnes beyond all
question was a very strong personality.
He had imagination and character of

He was a. born playwright. He had a
certain presence very effective with
criminals and women and very young
reporters. But he was not the ideal boss
detective. I believe that O’Brien has a
chance to do better than Byrnes, al-
though 'he is not naturally as much of a
man. When an individual has a strong
personality and an egotism. out of pro—
portion to his ability tn.,c_arry around,
tuey unfit him for such detailed execu-
tive work as is demanded in detective
service. ~

O’Brien has not the slightest notion of‘
the art of coining, phrases or of con-
structing situations. If his men caught
an Anarchist of the Most type, he would
not at once see, as Mr. Byrnes saw, the
dramatic value of saying that he was
uught under the bed.

O’Brien is a simple type of the young
New York man, a representative of the
good class of young New York police-
men. He looks upon criminals as a per-
fectly natural element in society’s makes
up. ‘

One Bright Spot.

Rev. Howler Loud—Is it true that you
fainted in your husband’s arms just
after your wedding ceremony?

Mrs. Coldcash—Yes, and that’s the
only time in his life he ever supported
me. “

Cruel.

Arthur's—Don’t you know, Miss Sharp,
I’m thinking of getting a bicycle; what
do you think of the idea? .

Kate—Oh, do it by all means, Mr.
Softcroft; the bicycle, they say, is an
excellent thingfor the development of
calves.-—Boston Transcript.

A wealthy Birmingham 'man, who
made mosthf his fortune manufactur-
ing idols fgrjthe people in India to use in
worship, is going to give a. handsome
sum of money, after his death, to help
the missionaries in India make war
against idol/worhip.

OAKLAND, Cal., Sept. 4.—Wllliam H.

tion about an old‘deed to the tract of land
upon which Rahway, N. J ., is now situ-

A Test Case In Dallas.

DALLAS, Sept. 4.--Qne thousand persons
