NEW YORK DAY BE DAY)
(By J. M. Allison, Special Corre
spondent of The Times.)
NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—This is the
story of a subway Sir Galahad, who
wouldn't know what you meant—and
probably would be inclined to take ser
ious offense—if you told him that he
had performed a deed of chivalry.
But, comic as it was and uncouth,
there was in this happening the ele
ment of the heroic which inspired the
oldtime knight errant to yearn for a
scrap involving the welfare of a lady
fair.
Up around L«iox avenue and 135th
street many colored people live. The
quarter is noted, as “Little Bucktown”
used to be, for desperate affrays, now
and then, in which “bad” men briskly
wield their well-accustomed guns and
razors.
On a subway car several colored
men and women whose striking appar
el proclaimed their sportive tenden
cies, were riding toward 135th street.
Opposite them sat a frail looking
blonde youth and a pretty young girl,
These, it was plain to see, meant to
get off at 135th street to go to a
theatre. They so lost themselves in
conversation that the train was just
about to leave the 125th street sta
tion before they noticed that it arrived
there. In a rush to reach a door be
fore it closed, the frail looking youth
accidentally struck one of the loudly
attired colored men under the chin
with his walking stick. The youth
and the girl reached the door just a
moment too late. It flew shut in their
; faces, leaving them standing in the
I vestibule as the train began to move.
| The colored man who had been
i struck, meanwhile, glared after them.
j He felt a greater indignation, no doubt
; and a need to show a lofty resentment
j of the hurt to his dignity because
I some of the other colored people in the
j car were laughing at him. He fol
! lowed the young couple out to the ves
j tibule and began violently abusing the
j frail looking youth, despite his declar
j ation that the slight blow had been
j wholly accidental. The colored man
j grew more and more threatening. The
1 youth was plainly frightened and the
young girl almost in a state of panic.
The other colored people in the car
came forward to get a better view in
case hostilities progressed. Just then
a tall, stoop-shouldered colored man,
roughly dressed and slouching along
with a gait like Bert Williams, appear
ed from the forward car. “Wha’d’a
matteh, heah?” he asked, fixing a de
liberate eye upon the colored man who
had been forcing the difficulty and
then slowly taking in the rest of the
group.
“Mah goodness!” he exclaimed. “Is
dey some trouble cornin’ off? If dey
is, jess wait er minute, boys. Don’t
sta’ht nothin’ till Ah fin’ out which
side Ah’m on.”
Evidently the speaker was a man of
reputation of a sort. The colored man
who had sought to start a fight re
tired immediately with his friends.
He no longer talked noisily. He mere
ly mumbled. The train stopped at
135th street. On the station platform
the frail youth and the pretty girl
sought to thank the big colored man
for his timely intervention. “Lady,
say no more,” he said. “If I kep ’em
f’um mussin' up yo beau, it give me
pleash’ah.”
Then he emitted a single guffah and
shuffled up the stairs, whistling “The
Memphis Blues.”
Returning from a vacation, refresh
ed and energized in his labors, that
eminent vicarious literatus, Franklin
P. Adams, of the Tribune, seriously
launches a campaign to induce news
papers to print the name of the motor
car, not only when it wins a race or
crosses the continent without change
of gear, but also when it mashes up a
leading citizen and his family on ac
count of a defective axle.
Pursuing the well known policy un
der which for years he has continu
ously and gracefully got away with
something slightly less than grand
larceny, Mr. Adams does not even
credit the contributor who staked him
to the idea.
“Yes, dis is sure an easy job. Big
get cinch I ever had." The speaker
was a well known character of the
East side. His well barbered aspect
and immaculate evening attire did not
altogether disguise him, and therefore
an astonished friend—a newspaper
man—was asking him questions. The
encounter occurred in a very “refined"
and high-priced dancing resort at
Brighton Beach, on the border of
Coney Island.
“Dey had a couple o’ fusses down
here, early in de season,” continued
the East sider, “an den dey hired me,
see. I gotto wear dis make-up so’s
to look right. It’s all right when y’
git used to it. Dey pay all right, too.
Twenty a week an’ eats. What do I
Xs)®®®<SXi>®®<S^^
do ? W’y when I sees anybody I
knows I puts ’em out. Dat’s all.”
John L. Sullivan, white-haired but
hale, hearty and spry for his years,
stopped in the McAlpin yesterday, to
have a farewell chat with his friend
and adviser, Darcy O’Conner, before
taking the train for Hillsboro, O.,
where he was to deliver a temperance
lecture.
“Feeling good?” said he. “Why I
never felt better in my life. Of course,
it’s a joke to talk about my ever go
ing back in the ring, but I want to tell
you that 1 stepped three rounds, up at
the gymnasium, this morning, as fast
and strong as I ever did. That’s about
as far as I can go, now, although my
weight is about what it was when I
was a fighter. I’ve taken off fifty
pounds since I cut out the drink, but
I’ve got a little gout left and my wind
isn’t right. But, on my word, with
only three rounds in me, I believe I
could lick most of these false alarms
that parade as boxers today, and have
a couple of rounds left. I havn’t seen
anyone good enough to have stood five
rounds with me, when I was right.
Jess Willard? I think he’s the big
gest counterfeit that ever buncoed his
way into a championship. He ain’t a
champion. He’s just a freak.”

FROM HYDROAEROPLANE
Orvar Meyerhoffer, an aviator of
San Diego, Cal., has confirmed state
ments made by other persons that
people in an elevated position can de
tect fish in the water much more eas
ily than persons at the surface.
Speaking of his flights over the ocean
in the neighborhood of San Diego, he
is quoted as follows: “I have used my
hydroaeroplane in deep sea tuna fish
ing a number of times. By flying at
an altitude of 500 feet over the sea
the location of the fish can easily be
detected. I then voloplane to the kelp
beds, where the water is invariably
smooth, land and then skim out to
where we sighted the fish. Dropping
| over a boathook to keep the plane
from drifting, we get out our rod
and reel and the sport of taking the
wily tuna is on.
