transactions. He was very successful
in his purchases, and, becoming elated
thereby, took slightly more stock in the
flowing bowl than his system required.
One morning recently large box ar
rived at the Twenty third Street Offices
directed TO G. J. Osborn, well known as
one Of Jay Gould's brokers. IL was
deposited in the room where the prin-
pal spectators we're congregatcd, and
many were the surmises as TO its con-
tents. The bill Of lading merely de-
scribed 1t as "one box and contents
from New Orleans, value 500" The
carpenter who was summoned 10 open
the box, after pulling off the top and
tearing away mass Of moss and sea-
weed, uncovered lively alligator eager
for meal. Upon its back was pasted
a label. "a member Of the Re.u rning

There was q universal drawing Of
legs up on chairs and tables as this
member Of the Returning Board crawled
about the floor in his anxiety to appease
a whetted appetite.
Just then the wheat-speculator was
noticed slowly vending his way across
Fifth Avenue toward the offices. His
brow was sad, and his appearance
really was suggestive Of q struggle with
secret sorrow and remorse.
An idea struck b. 4. Carver.

"What alligatorP" asked Carver.
"Why, that one crawling about the
room!" responded the wheat specula-
tor.

Carver.
"What! You don't see any alligator,
you old fraud! Where are your eyes !
Where did il come from, Osborne?"

the response.

looking around with an expression Of

tractive: "Genesis, Matthew, Mark,
Luke, John, Exodus, aud 'Pocraphy."
The minister stared at him, but before
he had thought II worth while TO say
