PASSING OF THE COACHMAN
The coming in of the chanlfeur h*i evidenced the passing of the family coachman, that haughty and purse proud individual who scurried you to «n isle of safety with a look. Nothing in New York has stood for the remoteness, the exclusiveness, the haughtiness of the rich more than the family coachman, as on his rolling throne he has always owned Fifth (avenue and demanded his right of
way. The chauffeur, speed and grandeur combined in his car. gives you no impression of pride of lineage, tradition of purse, and he has been-,a pleasant Interpreter of the motives of the rich. If he runs you down he gathers np the remains of you and transfers you with much, presence of mind and elimination of time and space to a convenient haven, and Is sorrier than anyone. The chauffeur
never makes you feel like a worm He is a real development—New York Evening Sun.
