circle of friends in a London club, says
London Answers. There was a very tall
gentleman present. who. evidently be-
lieving himself to shine as a wit, seized
every opportunity to raise laugh at
tho other peoples expense. On being in
troduced to Lord Roberts, the wit bent
down patronizingly to his lordship and
remarked:

oBIFUART NOTES.
Frank 4. Hermanee, the We'll Known
 Railroad Conductor.

Railroad Conductor.
 Frank A. Hermance. for many years one of the best known conductors on the Consolidated railroad, died Sunday at his residence, 21O Congress street, Bridgeport, aged seventy-four years and six months.
 He is survived by his wife and one daughter. He was a member of Trum- bull lodge, F. and A. NJ. of New Haven; also of the Hartford Division Conduc- tors association, and of the Fresh Pond United States Cremation Co In accord ance with his wishes his remains will be taken to Fresh Pond, L. l., for cre- nation. leaving Bridgeport on the a. m. train tomorrow, the train which he was conductor of for about twenty-five years.
 About three years ago he was com pelled to retire from duty on account of illness. He was one of the most popu- lar of the many conductors in the en- ploy of the Consolidated road.
 Conductor Hermance used to run the 6:l0 8. m train out of New Haven and his cheery smile and cordial voice was known to the thousands of the travelling public. He was liked by everybody who knew him. He lived here many years and was one of the best known and most popular men in this city. He was connected with the railroad which is now the New York, New Haven and Hartford for about fifty years. He be- gan work as freight conductor on the train which carried the Connecticut sol- diers to New York. Later, still at his old vocation, he was given the choice of runs between New Haven, where he then lived, and New York. For a very long time he was conductor on the train which left New Haven at 6:30 a. m. and went through Bridgeport about o'clock on the way to New York, and returning always brought up from the city the 1 o'clock Shore Line.
 Over year ago MT. Hermance be- came i'll and the Consolida ted road gave him a trip to Florida for the benefit of his health He returned not much bet ter, and was allowed to retire from the service in which he had served so long upon half pay with an annual pass upon the whole system. He was years ago | active in religious work in this city and was at the head of an organization which held services at the old hall, which was for years known as Loomis hall
 MT. Hermance was a very popular and genial conductor, and with the pos sibIe exception of Alexander Cowen and 1 Ike" Brompton, the oldest on the road He was known among the other railroad men by the title of Brother" derived 1 from his habit of addressing passengers 1 by that term.
 The funeral services will be held al 1 his late residence this evening at o'clock and undoubtedly there will be a very large delegation of railroad men in attendance. .Stahl & Son of this city will have charge of the funeral and transportation of the remains to Fresh Pond crematory.
