drawn together in thoughtful scowl As
he came along an old horseman with w:sp
of whiskers on his chin wandered out OF the
door Of the hotel, and, catohing sight Of the
great railroad king, suddenly started for
ward and yelled:

Nearly everybody was abashed y any
man addressing the greatest citizen OF New
York IN that fashion, but the commodore
seemed 70 think it was all right:
