The policeman on the beat moved up the avenue impressively. The impressiveness was habitual and not for now, for spectators were few. The time was barely 10 o’clock at night. But chilly gusts of wind with a taste of rain to them had well nigh developed the streets.

Trying doors as he went, twirling his club with many intricate and artful movements, turning now and then to it’s his watchful eye down the pacific thoroughfare, the officer, with his stalwart from and slight swagger, made a one picture of a guardian of the peace. The vicinity was one that kept early hours. Now and then you might see slights of a cigar store of an all-night lunch counter: but the majority of the doors belonged to business places that had long since been closed.

When about midway of a certain block the policeman suddenly slowed his walk. In the doorway of a darkened hardware store a man leaned, with an unlighted cigar in his mouth.

As the policeman walked up to him, the man spoke up quickly.

«It’s all right, officer, » he said reassuringly. «I’m just waiting for a friend. It’s an appointment made twenty years ago. Sounds a little funny to you, doesn’t it? Well, I’ll explain if you’d like to make certain it’s all straight. About that long ago there used to be a restaurant where this store stands – «Big Joe» Brady’s restaurant».

«Until five years ago, » said the policeman. «It was torn down then. »

The man in the doorway struck a match and lit his cigar. The light showed a pale, square-jawed face with keen eyes, and a little white scar near his right eyebrow. His scarfpin was a large diamond, oddly set.

«Twenty years ago to-night, » said the man, «I dined here at « Big Joe» Brady’s with Jimmy Wells, my best chum, and the finest chap in the…etc. »

(From O. Henry’s Short stories.)

Magician breaks up bank robbery

An Amateur stage magician broke up a bank robbery when he waved his «magic» handkerchief – and made the bandit’s pistol disappear. But incredibly, the exconvict arrested for the attempted robbery walked out of court as a free man – because neither the police nor the magician were able to recover the missing weapon. Ten people saw the gunman pull a 38-caliber automatic end point it at a magician, but without the weapon as evidence the judge tossed the case out of the court. A police detective was frustrated. Oscar Gomes, 19, performed in nightclubs in and around Sao Paulo. He was held as a hero after a man standing in line just ahead of him stepped up to a teller’s window at the Banco National dos Trabalhadores de Sao Paulo, Brazil, and pulled a gun. Gomes tapped the gunman on the shoulder, waved a bright red handkerchief at him – and the weapon vanished. Then the heroic teenager helped an elderly guard overpower the stunned thief. Unfortunately, the young man reached to the emergency from instinct, and he was unable to recall exactly how he performed the feat of magic. So he couldn’t reverse the trick to retrieve the gun, and now a very dangerous criminal is back on the streets.

Key:

1. An Amateur stage magician…

2. Ten people saw…

3. Oscar Gomes, 19, performed…
