A GOOD JOKE WELL PLAYED.-A wag
drew coin check for $1,000 ON Wells,
Fargo & Co., yesterday, in the name OF
a party whom he knew had neither
money nor credit in the bank, and
dropped it on the street as "a joke-breeder.
A couple of Cornishmen happened along
and picked it up; they opened it and
read it; they then hurried around a cor
ner and eagerly read it second time;
and then, bright visions of Merry Eng
land, home and happiness filling their
hearts with joy, they rushed to the bank
to get their hatful of double-eagles. We
will not attempt to portray their disap.
pointment when they ascertained the
scrap of paper was worthless; but must
suggest that the wag carried his humor
into cruelty when he threatened them
with the law for attempting ito get
money under false pretenses." 1t was a
good joke well played.
