Wished Lipton Good Lurk

Wished Lipton Good Luck.

Before the train which conveyed Sir Thomas Lipton to Washington on his recent visit to President Roosevelt left Jersey City an Irish woman who cleans out the cars in the Pennsylvania yards learned from a train hand that Sir Thomas was on board.

"Hooroo!" she cried. "Divil a bit more work will I do until I see Sir Tommy."

She threw aside her broom and duster and made a rush for the drawing room car, says the New York World.

"Where's Sir Tommy?" she demanded as she ran up and down the platform. Sir Thomas obligingly appeared at a window.

"Good luck to ye!" she shouted. "The Shamrock'll win sure this time."

Sir Thomas raised his hat and smiled, and she went away happy.
