SATURDAY EVENING, JAN. 20, 1900
A Story of John Morrissey.

Henry L. Dawes of Pittsfeld, Mass,
successor of Charles Sumner In the
senate, told the following story:
''When I was a judge in Pittsheld,
Morrissey and Yankee Sullivan fought
prize fight at a neighboring place
called Boston Corners. Sullivan was
arrested and fined $1,000. He handed
over the money and went his way. A
day or two later, while was sitting on
the bench, fine looking man entered
the courtroom and sent letter up to
me. 1t was from a friend Of mine in
PRODUCING John Morrissey. He, too,
was fined $1,000 and said to me that
he would send me his check on his re-
turn to New York.
"Wen, l didn't know what might
happen If he was let so on that under
standing, but said to Morrissey that
any arrangement for settlement which
he made with the sheriff would be sat
isfactory. The sheriff, feeling as l
did, insisted upon having the fine paid
In cash, and since Morrissey didn't
happen to have that much cash with
him the sheriff locked him up until
the amount was sent on from New
York.
81 fancied that Morrissey felt he
owed me a grudge because Of this in
cident. Years afterward in Washing
ton number Of new congressman
were brought up to be introduced to
me. Among them was Morrissey
When he came forward, he smiled
and said, Mr.. Dawes. believe we
have met before"

WOMAN ON THE CAR.

An incident occurred on the
Darby car tho other day which
shows that that the average woman
is we'll able to take care of herself
and her own, The car was crowd
ed, and when a Notwithstanding
woman came in, leading a little
boy by the hand, none Of the men
arose to give her a seat. At this
point newsboy entered, and the
the woman called him to her
quickly and bought newspaper.
Then in deliberate manner. amid
the chagrin of the male passengers
and amusement of the conductor,
the woman spread her newspaper
on the floor of the car, seated her
self and then took the boy lii her
lap. After this she said to a
shame-faced man who arose with
an apologize air to offer her a
seat: "No, sir; / don't accept
courtesies from man whc is so
reluctant to extend them as you
have been. | hope to start the
fashion of making you men as po-
lite as your fathers used to be, but
| am afraid the task is a heavy
