CHAUFFEUR WAS ON TO JOB
Smart Man 8ecured Taxlcab, But the
Last Laugh Realty Waa with
the Driver.
Roger Enwrlght, Charles Maher and
A. R. Davis stood at the aide entrance
to the Hollenden Saturday, wondering
how to get home. TazicabB were not
to be had, cars were not running and
they didn't feel the need of exercise
badly enough to desire to walk.
A taxlcab was standing near the
botel, but the porter bad told them
that It was engaged.
. 'Webby we can talk this fellow into
believing that one of us engaged his
outfit," suggested Enwrlght. He
walked up to the driver and Inquired
who he was waiting for.
"I ain't seen the gentleman," said
the driver, "but I was ordered to wait
here for a Mr. Wright somebody
from out of town, I guess."
"This Is a cinch," thought Roger.
"Wasn't the name Enwrlght Instead
of Wright?" he asked the man.
"It might have been."
"I thought this must be mine," says
Enwrlght "Come on, boys."
All got In and the man took them
home.
When Enwrlght stepped out at his
home at East Seventy-ninth street the
man said the bill would be $8. CO.
"Whatl That's an outrageous
charge!" stormed Roger. "How do
you figure any such bill as that Just
for coming out this short distance 1"
"You must remember," says the
driver, "that after you engaged the
machine I waited there for you at the
hotel for more than three hours be
fore you got In."
That being the case Enwrlght paid
the bill without further argument

THE GRAND DUKE'S MATCHBOX
Slight Forgetfulness Lost for Russian
Noble Present Given Him
by the Czar.
The Grand Duke Michael of Russia,
the tsar's uncle, on the occasion of 8
visit to France, was walking down a
Paris street when a working man
In corduroys stopped him and asked
him for a light. The working man
was smoking a very dirty little clay
pipe. The grand duke had only Just
lit an excellent cigar. He glanced at
the pipe, looked at his cigar, and, as
he didn't want to spoil It, handed the
workman his matchbox a gold one
with his Initial In diamonds upon It
ine man iook me box, struck a
match, and lit his pipe. Then "Hallo"
he said, looking at the box.
"What's the matter," said the grand
duke, expecting a remark upon the
beauty of the matchbox.
"On, nothing," said the man, "I
won't give you away."
; "What do you mean?" said Duke
Michael. "I hope you don't suggest
that I came by the box dishonestly."
' "No, no," the man said. "I wasn't
thinking about that at all. But you'll
get Into trouble If you don't take care.
These matches of yours are contra-
tand."
For It Is quite Illegal to bring
matches Into France from foreign
-countries, owing to the government
monopoly. '
, A little later In the day, the grand
duke told President Fallleres the
story.
I "And good gracious," he exclaimed
suddenly, feeling In bis pockets, "the
beggar never gave me back my match
box, and It was a present from the
tsar."
