It was almost 11 o'clock. At 14th Street he asked us again. We told him it was just 11 P. M. When the train reached Brooklyn Bridge we both left it and the Negro said: “Would you mind tellin’ me ag’in what time it is?” “Six minutes after 11,” we replied, @omewhat surprised at his persist- ence. “What's the idea?” we asked, Qs we put our watch away. _“Nothin’,” he replied, very quietly, 80 I'll accept a Duke with “dooks,” Who'll fight to get us beer.

I do not want a “dud.” Stepping into a second-hand clothing store, she called the proprietor to the window. “Look out and you will see Central park,” said Tessie.

Ry the way, wé hate to show our ig- morance, but who is Ward's double? TAXICAB TESSIE. (Note—The motion picture rights to ‘this story have been sold for Paraguay.) Tessie was thoroughly dis- gusted. All day long she had ‘waited for a telephone call to as- sume the star rdle in the new play, “Sticky Stella,” and it had not come. Moe O'Connor had assured her she would get the part. Now she feared it had been given to Lucy Liver of the vaude- ville team of Liver and Bacon. Lucy and she had never heen friends since the day they met ‘Toady Allen, the handsome yegg. “It must be fate,” mused Tes- aie. It might have been, of course, but there was no way to tell. “Oh, well, I atill have the dia- monds,” Tessie said to Hulda Jacobson, her colored maid. Hulda stepped into the closet, emerging a moment later with a shot-gun. “Do you want this?" she asked. “Yes,” said Tessie, wearlly. ‘I might as wellpgo hunting.” Taking her game bag, she strolled along up Seventh Ave nue, looking for a covey of quail.

Shubert have decided “The Passing Show of 1923" at the Winter Garden on Thursday evening, Sept. 14. Willie and Eugene Howard are the stars and (To be continued.) Anent King Dud. By golly, this Coney Island King thing is getting serious. Last night we met Cousin Bleanor, who very likely candidate for Queen, and she scoffed at us: “I've got 150 more votes than you have, old smarty,” she said. We tried our best to think of a witty answer—one that would make her ashamed of such bragging-—but we couldn't. Finally we just smiled and replied: “Oh, well, we ain't got no Kiddie Klub, lady.” Next the office boy handed us a pasteboard box that had come by mail. In it we found a lot of votes for us for King. A Flatbush young ‘ady had sent them along with a nice note. Somehow or other we sus- picioned the sincerity of her name. It was Ima Fule. And then there were poems ex- pressing sincere hopes that we'd be elected. One poem accused us of making home brew; three others said somebody ought to crown us and an- other rhymed “Dudley” with “ugly,” both words referring to us. There was one real sweet poem, however. Its first verse follows: ° If we elect Friend Bide the King, And for a Queen give him a beauty, Would jealous lovers try his neck to wring When they were driven nutty? We almost forgot to say that Homer Harris, a rubberneck, or rather, a rubber man, wrote Jeff Nutt to say that a paint house at No. 95 Madison Avenue has put in a piano so the employees can sing “Send Dudley to the Chair.” So! AND NOW PERMIT US to inform you that the fact that the Bronx has a fuel dealer named Short has caused a lot of people to wonder if he is this fel- low Short of coal, with It. Lola Fisher and Alfred Lunt will have the principal roles. Alfred Savoir wrote ‘‘Banco" and it has been adapted from the French by Clare Kummer.
