He hadn't Any Alias.

A newly-appointed policeman in New York arrested a Texan the other night for disturbance. On the way tothe lockup someone asked him: “Has that Texan got an alias?” “No,” said the policeman, “he» .has only got a derringer in his hip-pocket. I searched him', thinking he might have an alias concealed somewhere to stab a feller with, but he hasn't.”
