From the Detroit Ere Press.
For some days past an unknown fe
male bss been In a habit Of making ar
afternoon trip on the Woodward avenue
cars, generally getting aboard ct Jefer
son avenue and riding TO Brady street
The ilrst two or three times she paid hel
fare promptly enough, but the NEXT "trip
she wrote something on . card, handed
it TO gentleman, aad he paid her fare
The next trip she waited till the driver
rang the fare-bell, and when she saw
him looking through the door she ad-
vsnced and held up Q card on which
was written:
81 am deaf and dumb"
The driver didn't want to create q
scene, and she rode as o dead-head. Next
day she went through the sameperform-
aHce, but when she boarded the car the
third afternoon he was ready for her.
He had every reason TO beiieve her q
fraud, as she had been heard to speak
in car coming down. When she en-
tered the car she took seat and began
reading, seeming to have no earthly in
terest in the fare question. There are
no conductors on the route, and the
driver controls both doors. Before
Brady street was reached the unknown
female was the only passenger. She rose
and rang the bell at the street. but the
driver paid not the least heed. She rang
again, and he hurried up the horse.
Then she tried to pull the bell of the car,
but the man never turned his head. The
woman rushed to the door and pushed
and tugged till she was read in the face,
but not an inch would 1t bulge. Rush
ing to the front door, she pounded the
glass in q furious manner, and by and
by the driver accidentally" looked
round. She gestured wildly, and as he
shook his head IN stupid way, she held
up her card, which said: 1 am deaf
and dumb" The driver fumbled around
for two or three minutes and brought
out small plscsrd on which was
printed:
$50 am 1r'
They were then about half mile
above Brady street, making excellent
time, and the woman's indignation was
so great that she shook her fist at the
driver and screamed out:
"Tll have you shot for this!"
He held up his card, shook his head,
and paid no further attention to her
blood-curdling threats. At the turn.
table, mile and q half above Brady
street, the door slid back, and the wo-
man jumped into the mud. She blessed
that man from crown to sole, and she
blessed all his relatives back to the Re-
voution, but he did not seem to hear
her. AS he started off she called out:
"You are monster, villain, sneak,
aud their
He gave the lines a shake, got the
card from his pocket, and she was not
700 far away to read the answer.
