A young man. who did not look as
though he had snent over q Quarter OF n
century in this suffering world. turned out

sauntered down Broadway. His light
oyercoat covered a sbapely form. which
was crowned with a derby hat of recent
style. A pair of eyeglasses bridged his
nose, ard the cord that connected them
with the buttonhole of his coat was of
] black silk and the Loop it made was grace
full. One hand was hidden in a neat driv-

The loser by the transaction stood for n
moment hesitatng, then started in pur.

follower caught him inst in the. act of
tossing off a sherry flip. for which he, had
thrown down a 5O-cent piece in PAYMENT.

reporter before him. Indeed he nodded
his head in 8. sort of n greeting
