HoeG's TEXAS "sREAk.D

At the close of fashionable dinner
in London former Gov. Hogg found
himself at the door of the mansion be-
side handsome woman who had sat
-opposite him at the table, but whose
name he had not caught She awaited
her carriage, but was unescorted.
Surely you are not going home
alone, madam" said the polite gov
ernor to the lady.
Thank you, governor" she said,
but I'm perfectly safe. My carriage
is below now"
But, madam" he persisted, Gin
Texas we never permit lady to go
home alone from party. l should
esteem it a great favor to be allowed
to escort you to your house."
II won't trouble you, governor" she
replied, 'but you may see me to my
carriage"
This rejection of his company set
Gov. Hogg thinking that he had COM
mitted an error, and he proceeded to
consult Ambassador Choate.
They do things differently over
here" explained the ambassador,
gravely. ut was not quite the right
thing for you to do to offer to take the
lady home, but don't worry. That was
the famous duchess of c., one of
the brightest and most practical
women in London, and she'll not think
the worse of you for your mistake"
The ambassador smiled reassuring-
ly
"Choate," said the ex-governor,

such a sensible and fine looking lady
as the duchess of c. to make that
