Geo. ID. Prentice and shadrach Penn.


The local item which we published
yesterday, ia reference to Shadrach
Penn's Louisville Advertiser, has revived
an amusing incident in the history OF
that gentleman's life, which some of the
old citizens of Louisville may yet re
member, and which, doubtless, afforded
them many hearty laugh. 1t occurred
about thirty five wears ago. between the
years 1885 and 1910, when Prentice at
the head of the Louisville Journal and
Penn as editor and publisher of the id
vertiser, were running what was called
10 those early days OF American Journal
ism, lively opposition. About year
previous to the occurrence, horrible
murder or some great calamity Dad oc.
Cured in the south, not far from New
Orleans. 1t happened that Prentice had
saved a copy of this paper. which had
not been clipped or cut. His natural
wit struck upon good expedient to get
OF good joke on Penn BY means of this
paper, then a year old. According. he
sprinkled the paper. folded it up, neatly
pressed it, and gave it the appearance of
a new issue, and incIosing it in large
wrapper, backed it, Compliments clerk

Matters were in the form, but they were
ordered out and the new copy placed in
the hands of the printers, with few ed

to the gentlemanly clerk of the elegant
and fast steamer Wauconsta for the inval

following in regard to an old conductor,
promoted to train dispatcher:
" Habit was very strong with the ex.

Billy wanted to know if we bad pass.
He couldn't get accustomed to his new
position at all. He pinned to be again on

to put him through collision, which
they did to his entire qualification. They
tore his clothes nearly off, bIackened his

Business Morality of Wall Street.

1t is refreshing to find a good word
for any phase of New York life in the
papers outside of the city. We there
fore quote with pleasure what the New
York correspondent of the Boston Jour
nal says about the business morality of
Wall street, viz:
Few persons would select the Street
as a symbol of mercantile honor. Yet
it would be difficult to find a spot in the
land where business ability and integrity
have higher mercantile value. Millions
pass daily on the click of the gold dial.
That click is a fortune to some and ruin
to others. Yet in twenty five years not
five persons have repudiated their con-
tracts. The sale of stocks is enormous
These sales are made in an undertone,
perhaps TO a clerk or a runner of a large
house. There are no witnesses. Yet
be the sale loss or gain, not three men in
thirty years have repudiated their sales
The leading brokers, who simply buy and
sell, have stood from quarter to half a
century. Through these houses the great
dealers buy and sell. These men keep
the funds of their patrons from ten theu-
sand dollars to a million or two. Men
so trusted, become rich, and when they
retire they sell the good will of Their
house for thousands. Usually the old
firms take in their sons or relatives, and
keep just interest enough TO hold the boys
steady and keep up the old style of things.
If man wants to see the old school
honor, genuine IiberaIity. large hearted
donation, and the courtesies of business,
he will have to make the acquaintance Of
the street. "

A valuable railroad train signal-light
has been invented. In the centre of the
roof of the rear car of the train, over the
rear axle, is placed square lantern with
alternate panes of red and white glass.
The lantern is connected by means of a
shaft with one of the axles 10 such mat
ner that eight revolutions of the axle pro-
duce one of the lantern. When the car
stops the lantern of course ceases to re-
volve. Upon each side of this main Ian
tern are two others, also connected with
the axle in such way that when the
train is moving forward, solid red light
is displayed, and if backing, a solid green
light. The engineer of a train coming
up in the rear can thus tell, by observing
these lights, whether the train before him
is moving or at stand still; and if mo-
wing, in which direction.
