A member of the Weekly staff noted the following incident which occurred on a Kansas City street car. A young lady got on the already crowded car and stood near a seat occupied by a flashy dressed young man and a ragged drunken person. The latter with awkward politeness gave his seat to the young lady. Soon another lady entered the car and stood near the same seat. The flashy dressed young man did not offer her his seat. On observing this the drunken man gazed at him for a few seconds and then made a remark which raised a shout of laughter and caused the young man to drop off and catch another car. "Hiic—hic, I'm drunk and—hic,—I know it. But you're—hic—a hog,—hic—and don't know it!"
