A Hum0rlst's Dinner

"Twenty minutes for dinner" shout
ed the brakeman, as we approached
Lathrop.
Arrived there I entered the dining
room and inquired of the waiter:
"What do you have for dinner"
'sTwenty minutes" was the hurried
reply.
I told him I would try half-a-dozep
minutes raw on the half-shell, just to
see how they went. Told him to make
q minute of it on his books. He
scratched his head, trying to comrre-
bend the order, but gave it up, and
waited upon some one else.
I approached a mar who stood
near the door with a lot of silver in
his hand. "What do you have for din
ner?"
"Half q dollar" says he.
I told him l would take half a dollar
we'll done. I asked him if he could not
give ME, in addition. a boiled pockets
book stuffed with Qreenbacks. and come
seven thirties garnished with postage
stamps and ten cent scrip. And !
wonld like to wash my dinner down
with national bank notes ON draft"
He said they were ont of everything
but the bank notes, and that as 0 o as
the train left he would order the waiter
to ssdraw" some.

q is not 80 startling as the disclosure
that the thefts on the part Of one Of
the tellen began 90 far back as Black
Friday or more than eight years ago,
and have remained undiscovered up
to this time. Indeed there is no rea.
son to suppose that they would have
been discovered now, If the Bank De-
partment had not concluded that IN
examination of tho Bank was proper
none having been had during all that
period. The public viii b tho more
surprised that the bookkeeping of an
old and conservative bank could be
made to conceal . crime of such pro
portions for such . length Of year
when they zee that the beginning o.
this defalcation was almost as bad q
the end. The teller stole, in all. $780,.
600; there has been recovered sl6,.
600, making the total loss probably
ga, 900; the amount which the do
faulter took eight years ago WAS s35,
600. While tho capital Of the banl
has been considerably impaired BY thi
and other causes. pleasant assurance
are given that its depositon will no
suffer and it, business will not Be inter

Monday in March next. and show
caure why they should not be com
manded to levy a tax to pay the judg'
ments against the county on its rail
road bonds. The judgments in the
seven cases amount to over $50, 600.
At the same time the officer served OF
the clerk of the county the writs in I
new suit for $50. 900 more, so that BY
the time the county judges are or
dered to make the levy asked for
there will be $4,000 in Judgment
