"GESTLEMANLY" LADiEs.-In q railroad
car tie seats We're all full except one which
was occupied by pleasant looking Irish
man-and at one of the stations a couple
of evidently we'll bred and intelligent young
ladies came in to procure seats seeing none
vacant they were about to go into back
car, when Patrick arose hastily and offered
them his seat with evident pleasure.
But You will have no seat for yourself"
responded one of the young ladies' with a
smile, hesitating, with true politeness, to
accept it.
Never mind that - said the gallant HI
bernian, Eyer Welcome to it. I'd ride up
on the cop-catchcr to New York any time
for smile from such jinhemanly ladies -
and he retired into the next car amid tho
cheers of his fellow passengers.
