At last one of the male passengers remarked, "Are you sure she is a lady, and not a poor woman?"

"Oh, yes, she is a lady," said the conductor without hesitation.

"'A well-dressed lady?" again asked the passenger.

"Yes. a thorough, well-dressed, fashionable lady," said •.he conductor.

"Then I should think she can afford to take a cab home," said the passenger.
