A LIVELY BANK ACCOUNT.
The Dialogue Between the Teller and
the Red-H eaded Boy.

the Red-H eaded Boy.
The New York Tribune reporter, who
was making his usual weekly deposit at
an uptown savings bank, occupied
place behind a red-haired, freckled boy of
the office messenger type. After pass
ing up a battered and dOg-eared bank
book to the receiving teller, he proceeded
to explore one after another Ofhis pockets.
A long search among a miscellaneous
assortment of keys, knives, match-safes
and other articles finally developed the
sum of thirty-three cents, which he hand
ed UP with a malign twinkle of his
shreWd gray eye.
$50 you're back again?7 growled the
receiving teller, as he chased the coins
| over the slippery surface of the glass on
the extreme edge of which the boy had
carefully arranged them. "YOu're rum
ming down pretty low on your account.
l suppose you are afraid the bank would
fail if you had more than a dollar here at
a time"
1 sWeH, l don't know replied the boy in
| a ruminative tone; II don't Wanter run
no risks. know a Teller over yer in a
/ telegraph office whose brother had six
/ dollars wunst in big bank downtown
/ eleven or eight years ago and it busted
/ an he never got only sixty cents outen
! it,"
''Well," said the teller in a peppery
way, as he shut the book with snap,
'sany time you're afraid Of your money
you Just come around and let me know,
! and I'll see you get it. Your account is
too lively tor us anyway. We can't keep
! it in sight half the time, too much here
/ acknowledgements about it. This
thing Of deposting 20 in the morning and
/ drawing out 10 about 80 p. N. is getting
about played out.
''Why, last Saturday.. said the teller,
| raising his voice, ''yOu had a balance OF
so cents and came around before | could
| get my coat off in the morning to deposit
a quarter, afraid somebody would rob you.
suppose, if you waited till latter in the
day, and by ginger, you were back again
at l O'Clock drew out all but five cents
! What was that fOr?'
Wanted to 90 to matinay with the
feller in the telegraph office l wuz tellin
you about. GU can bet it wuz a boss
show. Say, did you ever see the min.
strels ~ inquired the boy with an affecta
ton Of the greatest interest.
mo, l don't go to such low places, and
if I'd known you drew that money out tC
90 to the theatre with, Pm here to tell you
you would have slipped UP on it,"
''What people don't know don't huri
EN-" answered the boy with a grin.
''Well, now, see here" continued the
teller, as he handed the book over, ''yOu
account is valuable, but hadn't you better
| transfer it to some bank where they can
afford to hire one clerk to do nothing else
but keep it? 1t would almost break ouI
hearts not to see you half dozen times a
day, but we would try to bear up under
it, You think it over, and ifyOu conclude
to follow my suggestions let us know a
day or two in advance so that We'll be
prepared to give you the entire amount

THE HORSE AND HIS HOOP.
a Lecture in Favor of Leaving Horses
UnshOd-Prof. Woods Theories.

UnshOd-Prof. Woods Theories.
II don't speak of the horse from a horsey
point of view, because 1 am not a horsey
man" said Prof. Wood at Chickering Hall
Boston Tho professors audience did not
appear to be any more horsey than he was.
Many Of them were ladies, and some of the
younger men were in evening dress, but
there was a good sprinkling Of the class
with that knowing look which grows upon
men who can talk horse all day and have
other horses than Nightmares present in
their dreams. The professor considered
the horse from utilitarian point of view,
as machine which mans self
interest should lead him to pro-
tect. The hoof, which had been in
jured by so many "happy thoughts" was
the chief subject treated, while blunders,
check-reins, ETC., were incidentally no.
ticed. 1t was stated, to the surprise of
some Of the audience, that ahOrse unshOd
as nature made him, could climb-nOt a
pole, but a precipice. When he came to a
sharp corner he would stand on his hind
legs and hold on by his fore hOofs. The
professor knew Of horse that did this.
illustrating his theme by blackboard
sketches, he made some good points in IA
vor of the no shoe theory and when the
lecture was over fair number, both Ia
dies aud gentlemen, surrounded him to
get further information. Some of these
were converts, but one was a skeptic who
had seen horses hOOfs worn down by the
prairies.
Il don't know anything about the prai-
ries," said the professor; 81 speak of high
ways"
DO you think street car horses would
do as well without shOes?" asked another.
"Certainly | do replied the professor;
Il am certain they would do a great deal
better.'

The Porter's Raise Move


He was a porter in Wholesale dry
goods house on Jefferson avenue. His
salary was not large enough to warrant
him IN buying a fast horse and wearing
silk undershirts, but he was growing fat
and smoking fair to medium cigars. In
an evil moment the tempter came and
whispered in his ear that he could make
$4,000 as easy as rolling off a log. With
that much money in his hind pocket he
could cheese the racket and have a new
tailor every week in the year. Yesterday
morning, at 9 O'Clock, the porter invited
the senior partner to 90 upon the roof
with him to see about repairs. There
was a wicked leer on his gace and a
strange light in his eyes, but the guileless
senior partner noticed nothing but the
fact that the porter was getting a brandy
flush on his nose. No sooner had they
reached the roof than the villain seized
his employer and held Aim suspended
over the dizzy height, and cried out:
'YeEr check for $4,000 or drop you into
the alleyv' ''Say $15,0OO.v "NeverP'
01fake it'$17, 900" - will not. Give me
what 1 ask or down yau gog' every well
Il knock UNDER" The senior partner
sat down on the icy cover of the trap-door
and wrote the cheek for the sum named.
The porter seized it and swiftly descended
and closed the trap to keep the victim on
the roof. 1t was but the work of five min
utes to run to the bank and present the
check. Never had cent On deposit
with - said the Cashier as he showed it
back. The porter had made false move
and he had lost. He crossed the river on
the Zoe and is now 2 wanderer on foreign
shores
