THE COURIER. II ON THE STREET GAR. The street car bounced and rumbled over the crooked rails, and swung noisi ly around the corner. I was Bitting with my back to tho front platform and was facing overyone. I had stared at them all at the pretty shop girl opposite mo with tho big wondering blue eyes, shad ed by long silky lashes.; at the clerk be side in a new brown checked suit; at a tall, pale brunette in one corner who looked proud and dignified enough to be the daughter of a hundred earls but that s'io was chatting incessantly to her companion and then I remembered that she sold hairpins and notions in a large dry goods 6tore. On tho rear sat a tall, round-shouldered man with a stubby gray beard and wearing a shiny black coat and no necktie, slapped his knee and waved his right hand aloft, in tell ing a little man with a tin dinner pail about tho war and how it should bo conducted. On tho rear platform there were several boys, some pulling labori ously at big cigars and others whistling loud some popular air. In their midst was the conductor, tall and good-natured, with a large spray of spirea on his coat lapel. The car tore madly down a little hill and went on smoothly at the bottom. Then it slowed for somebody to get on and finally stopped altogether. I looked out. Beside the car was a little womau carrying a huge bundle of soiled clothes in a dusty sheet. She was very slight and her face, shaded by a torn sun hat, was thin and pointed. She wore a faded blue wrapper which Happed about her as she moved. Tho sleeves came but a little below her elbow, leaving her thin, red arms bare. She walked hastily to the front of the car, staggering a little under her burden, and I heard her say to the raotorman: "Weren't you were to take these down to Nem, w'act you, Ned? Won't you take 'em now? I've waited so long." I leaned forward to hear the answer. There was an indistinct growl and the car started abruptly. As it tlew on up the street, 1 saw the women walk back to the stairway in the building she had left and throw the big bundle with all her force on the ground. Then she sat down beside it, and I could see her whole slight little body shake with her sobs. I turned around and looked at the mctorman. His face was Hushed dark and his blue eyes were bright with anger. He had red hair and his shoulders were very rounded. Away in the distance, with the big brick building for a background I could see the white bundle and beside it the forlorn blue little figure with the head in the lap. And the clerks and the shop girls chat ted on and in the corner the old man was still telling "how to Hi k Spain." HakriktM. Cooke. BY THE WAY, HOW ABOUT THAT SUMMER TRIP?
