is" was the swapping reply. The
man walked on. In half an hour
the door opened, and in walked q
tall, rough fellow, coarse as q polar
bear. His huge beard was un-
combed and stained with tobacco
juice. His clothes were lily put
on, and smelt of the sable.
He was ungloved, and brawny,
and weighed full 200. He ran his eye
along the car, and caught the seat
on which our lady was sitting. He
made for it. With great delibera-
ton he seized bundle, band-boxand
bag, put them plump into the lap Of
the lady, and down in the vacant
spot like one who intended to stay.
II looks could have annihilated a
man there would have been q corpse
in that car about that time. The
man seemed very much at home.
He whistled, spit, stroked his beard;
he threw around his huge arms, and
chuckled inwardly at the evident
rage of the woman. She left the
cars at New Haven, and had hardly
gone before the gentleman who was
refused the seat reappeared. To
some gentlemen who seemed to take
q great interest in the proceedings,
he said: "bid you see how that wo-
man treated me ?" ayes" "Did
you see how she was came up with?''
irYes.n swell, that man Is a horse
| doctor that sat down beside her. He
belongs to Bulls Head. Igave him
q dollar to ride with that woman as
far as she went" The car roarsd.
