Rang the Bell.

On some of the Olive street cars
electric bells enable the passenger to
punch button and signal the Cableor
to stop when he wants to get up.
These buttons are conspicuous feat
ures Of the strips between the win
dows, A few days ago the bell Ola
one Of the cars began to ring, and,
the car slowed up and stopped at the
next street, but the ringing kept up.
Nobody got off, and the conductors
and cableer began to grow angry.
The ringing went on. Another stop
was made at the next street, still
nobody got of, and the bell kept on
ringing, says the st. Louis Republic,
From mild Indignation the conduc-
tor grew profane, and announced that
the person who kept ringing that bell
would be put off at the next corner,
The next corner was reached, nobody
got off, but the bell kept ringing.
The passengers now began to enjoy
the thing, and the more they smiled
the warmer the conductor got, and a
collision seemed imminent, when all
of asudden a lady who had been sit
ting in comfortable and graceful at
titude with her head against the win
dow frame, unconscious of the COM
motion and its cause, leaned forward
and signaled the conductor to stop
the car. AS she did so the bell
stopped ringing. 1t was then seen
that her hat pin had been resting
against the electric button, and as
the fact dawned upon the conductor
and the passengers at the same time,
there was burst Of laughter so loud
that it almost set the bell ringing
again.
