A lady was on one occasion riding in a tramcur with a considerable' amount of money in her pu!c At one of the stopii;'.;ts n man came into the car; she in.-tantly tame to the conclusion that he must be a pick pocket. When he sat down beside her the thought of her well-filled purse, and at once resolved to watch him. Suddenly her suspicious neigh bor put his hand down at his side. She felt it slide down until it touched her purse, and instantly she put her hand down and seized the stranger by the wrist. He did not struggle, and she was in some perplexity as to what she would do next, but she thought that if he should attempt to get away she could at least shou that she had him by the wrist with his hand in her pocket. She said afterward thai she could not tell why she did not give an alarm at once, but :-he sat quietly, waiting for her neighbor to make the first move. They rode in this way for some distance, when, to her amazement, the stranger, at one of the stoppages, prepared to rise. "If you will let go of my arm, mad am," he said, with the utmost cool ness. "I will get out." He' half iom as he spoke, and, to her utter confusion, the lady discov ered that his hand, instead of being in her pocket, was thrust into the pocket of his own ulster. The gar ment hung down so that his hand had pressed against her purse with out being in contact with it, and she had been holding him by the wrist with no apparent excuse whatever. She was overcome with confusion, but managed to say that she had thought his hand to be in her pocket. The stranger smiled and went out, while a gentleman near by leaned forward to say: "Don't vou know who that is, mad am? That is Rev. Mr. " The lady's feelings may, as the old authors used to say, be better imag ined than described. London Tit Bits. Atbletic Notts.
