WAS A "LEEMISH" CAR.
The owl-Car Passengers Finally
Found Out.

He seemed painfully conscious of the
-Cdicrous figure he cut as he burs,
through the wildly Tapping curtains OF
u 1orth-bound, all-night car and
scraped himself into seat which had
been neglected by the other occupants
On account of the sea OF moisture which
II contained. His face was belligerent-
y red and his widely-staring eyes, an
ricipating with maniacal vigilance any
tendency to laughter which his ap-
pearance might provoke, blazed forth a
challenge to the entire car and success
July dispelled the rising spirit Of
jocundity.
The night was the most tempestu-
Gus Of the present season, and in order
TO escape the gusts of wind and water
that assailed the car from every direc-
ton some OF the owls had gathered
in the aisle, while others had perched
upon the backs of seats and some had
opened up their umbrellas. The con-
ductor, with an air of intrepidity born
OF familiarity with situations of the
kind, passed to and fro among the pas
sengers collecting nickels. He was an
ideal owl conductor, bristling with
a sense of his Importance, and osten-
tatiously Indifferent to the comfort and
convenience of his guests.
"Ez ish leemish ghar?" asked the
late wild-eyed arrival as the despot
jolted past.
The unintelligible gibberish met with
no response. Another block was passed
before the street car magnate came for
ward.
"Ez ish leemish ghar?" was repeated
somewhat petulantly by the swede-
for he was now discovered.
Everyone but the autocrat seemed
buried in an effort to translate the lar
gon, and some even ventured so far
as to turn an inquiring eye upon the
speaker. But the glances were quickly
for the glitter OF i'm
placable hostility in those wild ewes
had become intensified. Several more
blocks elapsed.
"Ez ish leemsh ghar?"
And this time the potentate had
stopped close by to take fare.
What" snarled the latter, with
scornful intonation.
'Ez ish leemish ghar?"
For moment there was reflective
pause-his majesty was thinking.
