A gentleman~-and apparently a ter.
rible-tempered 0ne-sat quietly near
the door Of 4 Broadway surface car
as It rounded the treacherous corner
Mt Fourteenth street In New York. Il
might be well to quality the descrip-
ton Of the gentleman by the state
ment that he was quiet when the car
started to 90 around the curve mem
toned. Later on he was less so.
Among the persons who got on the
back platform when the car stopped
ut the near side was stout woman.
who. with the combination Of her build
and bundles, had difficulty in wedging
through the door. She got in at a
time when the car was describing
fancy figures over the curve. and in
response to one Of the 1unges she
stepped squareIy upon the feet Of the
quiet gentleman. Apparently he had a
corn, which connected directly with
his soul. He screamed once and then
sat looking straight ahead, very red
and very angry. One of his shoes glis-
tened and the other resembled q mud
cookie.
The woman did not 60 her way, but
stood wavering, bundles and all. look
Ing at her victim Indignantly. he ig-
nored her. "Why don't you get your
old feet out OF the aisle7" she inquired
after long stare. The man looked
her straight in the eye, meanwhile
clicking his lips speculatively.
MADAME" he said. If you had your
husband with you would kill him.
Undoubtedly, would kill him." After
which he nmped out to the platform
and dropped of, apparently to be alone
with his foot.
