THE DAILY NOVELETTE His Last Fare t The starter who stood in front of the (Id Brevoort House was busy thnt af ternoon. At his shnrp whistle taxis time end went, one succeeding another, (continuous ware of them joining the iTtrmovIng stream of traffic thnt poured up the avenue. And amid it til, stationary, n shadow of the past, stood a hansom cab, Us old driver Krchcd atop, his ancient high hat over ties, his reins l.vine slack and list less over tbo patient horse's back. Tor twenty ears Pat had stood in the lime nlncc. The time had been when it ns he who hnd dashed up to collect Is fire nnd hnd trotted off mcrrilv to join the gay procession of shiny, blnck ribi going to many a gay rendezvous firther uptown. For a while it had kerned to Pat that the whole fashion able world was awaiting for hlra nnd tls sleek brown horse to whirl it nwnv. But he wns living to see his world n fickle thing nt best and his golden place In It usurped by dago taxi drivers and tbeir villainous, recking cars. The starter, with n minute or two to spare, roused Pnt from bis dreary re verie with: "Well, Pat. no business this after noon eh?" Pat shook his head In a weary nega ite. "Our dny's over the nag's and nolne." he nnsweted slowlv. "Tnmnr. row itfs the miction room for me cab and the country for the nog and me, I loess. The city hns no use for the likes of lis any more; we're done for, shure iMn.ri "Too hnd, Pnt, old boy; too bad." umpnthized the starter. "It's a long lime jou'o had jour stand hero, and I'll miss SOU. Hut overt limit 'u for carrying nowadajs; it's catchin" a train with five minutes to spnre, or It's tea nt the Kit in another fiv ttlnutes or the like. Well, good -by, I Bust be off. Here comes u young feller Vho II want a tnxi in n hurry, I'll bet." Patk leaned bnck nirnln. liiMot with floomy thoughts of the future, taking J farewell glance nt his dearly beloved mi, ions mat was treating mm so badly.

I no park, with its mysterious distances or green he remembered how It looked at UuBk, when the green turned to a noft lavender and myriads of little lights, like stars, twinkled through It for mllo uijuu nine. At Eighty-sixth street he turned cast. ivuvinB ucninu mm the modern palaces nnd the nnrk. He crossed Lcxlmrton nvenue. then Third, then Second. Ave nue A until it seemed ns if the street as lending them right into tho East nivcr. In front of a little row of Ivy-covered red brick houses stood n familiar taxi cab, nnd nt their approach out of It stepped the same pretty lady. She paid her driver hurriedly and sent him back toward the rushing world of Fifth ave nue as Pat drew up. Pat's faro first caught sight of the lady aa he was in the act of descend ing from tho cab. Ho stood stark still, half In nnd half out of the cab, mo tionless, ns if turned to stone. "Philip." snid the girl, laying her hand on the gloomy young man's arm. Pat was a gentleman. Ills asMicla tlon with the beau monde In those splen did old days stood him in good stead now for he sat on top of his ancient vehicle looking neither to tho right nor to tho left, ns if he heard and saw nothing. Nobody stirred on tho quiet street. Pnt, tho young lady and. the angry-eyed gentlemen wcro alono on tho brink of tho East River. "Philip," continued tho lady, breath lessly, "when I saw you drlvo off with that desnerate look on your fnco I lust couldn't stand it, and when the stnrter at the hotel told me you had given or ders to drive nere to tno river an sorts of horrid things camo into my mind. I could have bitten my tongue out for the things I hnd said to yrm. . I why did you como to this jumplng-off place, Philip" The young man's faco twisted Into a smile. "I live here, that's all," lie said, pointing to the Inst of the little houses in the row. You would have thought you wcro miles and miles away from the theatres and the shops, it was so quiet and still on East End avenue. Tho llttlo red house glenmed warm and snug in tho fading sunlight; the only moving tuing to do seen was a big four masted schooner (like Pnt and his cab, one of the last of its kind) movlne ran jestlcnlly up tho river in front of them BUcnc nnd switt ns the wind caught its broad white sails. Perhaps it was the unexpected beauty of the sceno that made the girl's eyes fill with tears and turn hcr hend away. Or rerhaps it was because she rr alized the tragedy of Pat nnd his old hansom. of tho four-masted schooner on whnt might be its Inst voyage, of tho passing of love who knows? Hut whatever It was, it was enough for Philip. He leaped out of tho cab and lifted her in ns if she had been a feather. His erst while gloomy fnce was alicht, his voice ital and ringing as he called to Pat: "Hey. there, old sober sides, drive on. It doesn't mnttcr where just diivo on," and ho jumped back into the cub beside the girl. "Yes, sor." snld Pat, who made for Central Park, whero he saw the green distances beginning to turn to n dainty lavender and the little lights sparkling through the dusk. "And somo folks cay the country bents New York," he mused, forlornly "St. Patrick! now we'll hate it, the nag and me." Three hours later he opened the lit tle trap door in the roof. "Shure. it's not lookln' I am, sor," he called, "but how much longer do jou want me? It's a hard day I have ahead of mc tomor row and it's no dinner I've hnd. sor." Ho heard n laugh below and "din ner, tho poor old thing wants dinner." came up through tho trap door. Then tho young man got out and enmc up close to Pnt. "Say driver," ho said, smiling at the girl who wns leaning around the side, "we both think this is the nicest tnxi in town. We've our own spocinl rea sons for liking this old bus. What would you say to engaging yourself to us ns our own nnd particular drhcr nt the rnto of $80 n month? Would that cocr things for jou?" There was silence, through which Pat looked at all tbo little blinking lights of Central Park and the brilliant length of Fifth nvenue bevond. The joung man. not understanding, continued: bn married next c like jour stylo. that's all. What do vou sav?" "Oood God. sor I, well, make It elghty-foivo and I'm wid j-ou," sold Pat huskily.
