Sarcastle Cabby.


The London cabby is quick witted. glih tongned aud clever at sarcasm, aud when he begins to use bad Inn- guage the very Landseer lions lu Tra- falgar square turn tall aud quake. When a certain sort of man, the horsy make who loves London and Ights, "goes broke." he takes to cab driving as naturally as a duck to water, and the streets swarm with cabbies who linve received un versity educations and hnve been In their day well to do and of good soclnt positions.


The Londoner knows that he cannot score off cabby under any circum. stances nud so leaves him to fight his never ending le.ttles with brother cab- bles, bus drivers and policemen. One morning Mr. Bradley Martin was cross- Ing I'nll Mall near the Carlton club, and a cab coming down the street at a good pace came within an ace of splk- Ing tie wealthy American with one of Its shafts. The cabby pulled up only in time to save the situation.


Mr. Bradley Martin leaped to the pavement nnd, turning in anger to the cabby, shouted angrily, "Who the deuce are you trying to run down ?" Cabby gazed In contempt and sorrow upon the flushed pedestrian and re- plied: "Blest If I know, gor'nor. You're a new species to me."-Saturday Even- Ing Post.
