The Browses Bullied Him.
Some of the hahitues of the Waldorf-
Astoria are telling a good story at the
expense of a young Englishman stop
ping there and now <>n his way home
after a tour of the West. It reiaiee to
the American system of baggage
checking, "such a simple thing, you
know." that now the Britisher wonders
why he did what he did.
It was several tv celt* ago when the
young man arrived here with a com
panion who had looked out for him on
the way over. At New York the friends
separated, the young fellow going to
Chicago. At the Grand Central station
be found his way to the baggage room,
with the Injunction to his employes to
send his "hawses” to Chicago. To his
surprise two baggage checks were
thrust into his hand.
"What are these for?” he asked in a
surprised sort of way.
The baggage man, being beset by ,
many persons didn't reply.
“What am I to do with these?” the
the young fellow Inquired, but no one j
answered. i
"Cawn't imagine," he soliloquized.
Then he was struck by a bright idea.
He walked into the lnctosure, strange- j
ly enough no one pursuing him, opened ;
one of his trunks, and carefully de- i
posited the-cheeks therein. - After that
he Telt consixteiabiy relieved:
Twenty-si* hours later e much bc
wildeceil-young, fereign£E_S3B|ro*ted a
burly hagsageman.in Chicago.
"Send me bawxes to the auditorium.”
he said, indicating his trunks.
"Give us yer checks,” was the busi- j
oectMiit* 10
ness like answer.
"Me checks!” was the puzzled ejacu
lation. "Checks? I don't owe anything.
I paid me transportation. Besides. I
cawn't draw a check here."
"I didn't ssy nothin’ lemt payin no
thin',” impatiently rejoined the bag
gageman.
"Show yer checks or yer don't get no
trunks. Don't know what checks is?
Must he gre.m. Here, see these ver
brass things." And the man held a
check up to view-.
A light broke upon the Englishman*
and he exclaimed.
"Oh me brawses. It's me brawses yo\»
want. Why, I locked them In one of th*
bawxes."
The baggageman looked startled.
Then he broke into a laugh, and the
claimant of the bawxes laughed.
"Durned if that don't beat me.
howled the baggageman. "You're a in*
lu.”
Presently the Englishman opened htf
trunk and got his checks, while the
baggageman explained the Americas
checking system.
"Now that I know your Ameri at
ways better.” said the Englishman, at
he told the tale with the joke on him<
pelf, "it seems very funny. But I giv*
you me wo,rd it took a long time to And
out what the chap meant by. a ‘lulu.’
