The story begins: But you must know where you are goin������� to stop, and the speaker, holding in one hand a battered tin pail, seated himself on the curbstone by the side of a small, almost disreputable-looking boy. Well, I don�������t, was the decided reply. I slept in a milk-wagon last night, �������cause I didn�������t feel like walkin������� to the Astor House, an������� now I haven�������t made up my mind whether I�������ll go to the Brunswick, or snoop �������round for another cart. The boy with the tin pail looked at his new acquaintance in undisguised astonishment a moment, and then asked, in a tone intended to be sarcastic: Why don������� t you buy three or four of the biggest hotels, an������� then you could swap round when you wanted to?
