He stood for a second sec-ond in tho doorway and glowerod ai those within. The conductor placed his naud on tho shoulder of the bad tempered tem-pered man and said: "Pass on, please, and don't stand in ho doorway 1" Tho disagreeable man turned his head 1 bit ana snapped in return: "Don't get gay. btop yonr pushing, or I'll report" Tho unfortunate man, while making this speech to tho conductor, did not oh jerve that a woman was attempting tc pass out Take many others, he thought the car had stopped for him alone. But his orabbed remarks were cut short by an energetic shovo from tho lady passen ger. She thought his cutting remarkE were aimed at her, and in a high pitohed voice she replied: "You are insulting, sir, and very nn gentlemanly.
