New YORK, Nov. There comes TINES
In everybodys life when they want to me
audsr a little II is funny word, that
zsesndsr. and yet it covers the ground ex-
sctly. You want TO go here, there and
eyervwhere. You want to see something
YOU haven't been in the habit OF seeing.
You want to eat something strange, you
want 70 ride behind slower and bonner cab
horses than New York furnishes. Wash
tnston. Baltimore, Philadelphia, will all
give you these.
rHE WASHINGTON CAB HORSES.
The pecuiiaritv of the cab horse In Wash-
ington is that he seems to know just where
ven are going aud the speed t5as you
would like. he makes the punishment suit
the crime. Once went out to see voodoo
doctor at the Jail, and that cab horse
thought was being sent up for thirty days,
and 90 be kept me as long time getttag
there as possible He was the Ersnch(vl
call sympetico. When he saw ms come
out Of that Jail, aud saw the geutle-
manly wa,dsa present rae with Q
bunch Of bright red gsraniums, be

Mckinley politician, and he frosted nae
hack to Washington and drepess as ~ sss
Arlington with taat same old thud chat shs
bctor describes AZ dull and sicksning. II
he thinks for q little minute that you are
out with your sweetheart, | really believe
hs puts or blinksrB for he never turns his
heed 80 look, and he goes as slowly as pos
sible, is perfectly willing when you go
home FOR you to give an account OF your
self. and put the blame on having tho
slowest horse il the city. He is II nice cab
horse, very.
BALTIMORE AND PHILADELPHIA" cABAtEs."
The Baltimore cab horse is rather more
diznified. Its driver invariably declines to
hear any suggestions that you may make
lie thinks he knows IL all ard lis idea is
that you should live your life as he wishes
it, while the horse himself has the same
manner Of arrogant blue blood, and a
great knowledge OF civilization. He comes
out great at Masonic PROFESSIONS. when the
men who wear horse collars and plumes on
their hats, are to the fore. and he prances
es IL the Templar of old were indeed in the
nineteenth century.
The Philadelphia cab horse is more than
simply peculiar. He has no knowledge
whatever Of the city itself He lives IN the
basement OF the Pennsylvania railroad sta
zion, and thinks that wherever else you
want TO 20 it will be the wisest to finish up
there and leave the town. Even
CAB HORSES KNOW SOMETHING.
He knows but one shop; you can imagine
whose that is. and though you may talk aud
bag to be taken somewhere else, if it is not
right into MIR. Wanamaker's bazar, il is two
blocks away from It, or just opposite to it,
or il you GO in there they will tell you The
Philadelphia cab IS not a success. The horse

IN A NEW YORK CAB.
The New York cab il not without its
pecularities. by the by. | have been sus-
pended out Of the window myself, scream
Ing to the cabman, and he has been equally
persistent In choosing his own way. But
at least he meanders a little bit, aud doesn't
get in line like the Phiia lelphia one does on
tue car tracks, with turee OF Wanamaksr's
wagons, two cars and another hanson ahead
