whooping and yelling like Arabs, ana pro-
family is certainly their special delight. That

a lady TO pass without her ears being saluted
by indecent aud boorish remarks, if not shock
ingly profane, is rarity.

place upon which teams can drive is the street
car tracks, and portion OF the distance one
street car track has been lowered nearly four
feet below the grade of the other.
