John Golden, the. proprietor, was X
in an anecdotal mood recently and I 4»
told a story concerning the late J
Charles Froiiman. Years ago, in v
London, Mr. Ftohimin stopped at X
the Savoy. The first morning, after -l-
his arrival, he rang for a waiter and
explained that lie wanted his morn-
ing meal served always at eight
o’clock and that it was to consist of
half a grapefruit, two eggs boiled
two and a half minutes, toast and
coffee. He also informed the wait-
er that he didn’t care for conver-
sation early in the morning and
wasn’t interested either in the
weather or politics. Each morning,
the waiter arrived on the minute
with the breakfast at just the right
temperature, served It silently and
departed silently. For two weeks,
the same thing continued and so
Impressed with the service was Mr.
Frohman that he continued to talk
long after his return, of the one
perfect waiter he had encountered
In all his travels.
• * *
One morning—it was Mr. Froh-
man’s birthday—there came a knock
at his door and when he said,
“Come In,” much to his surprise in
walked that same English waiter
with the usual Frohman breakfast.
The waiter served it silently and
departed silently just as he had
back In London. Not until later
did Mr. Frohman learn that his fel-
low producer, Charles Dillingham,
had arranged to transport the wait-
er from London to New York as a
birthday present to Mr. Frohman.
The waiter continued in Mr. Froh-
man’s service until he died, some
years later. Then he entered Mr.
Dillingham’s employ and was in
charge of the house until after Mr.
Dillingham married.
* • *
Mr. Golden told the story at
luncheon In one of the larger ho-
tels. Finding he had forgotten ldg
glosses, In his usual spontaneous
manner, he borrowed a pair belong-
ing to the head waiter. Having ad-
justed them, he looked ot the owner.
"There,” he said, "is the perfect
waiter Mr. Froiiman found In Lon-
don.”

When the 100 or more policemen,
who work under Deputy Inspector
Joseph Bannon, moved out of the
Arsenal station in Central park re-
cently to another building In the
park farther up town, they left be-
hind a building older than the park
Itself. The arsenal was built by the
state In 1848 as a depository for
arms and ammunition. At that time
It was in what was practically a
wilderness. In 1850, the city pur-
chased the arsenal and the land sur-
rounding it and during the war be-
tween the states, it was used to
house troops. Then it became a po-
lice etatlon as well as headquarters ■ *5*
of the park department. Now It Is
being used solely by the park de-
partment.

Discoveries are always being
made. Ed Hart, finding bis lighter
dry, tilled it accidentally with a high-
ly advertised cold remedy. Seeming-
ly In works Just as w:ell as ordinary
lighter fluid though It is a hit more
expensive.
