STOCK GAMBLING.

How Transactions in Shares are Managed
in Wall Street.
In view of the fact that Wall Street
men confidently expect a boom after a
long spell of dizziness, this is good time
to describe the methods of brokerage,
which are about as mysterious to most
people as the manner of faro or roulct.
In ordinary brisk times the Wall Street
brokers make more money and make it
easier than any other set of professional
men. To do legitimate brokerage
business does not necessitate the slight
est risk, nor does it imply that the bro
ker must in any way become specllla-
tor. As business is conducted on the
New York Stock Exchange the broker
simply lends the money to his customer
with which to purchase stocks, and then
does the buying for the purchaser. The
customer makes part payment, which
is called margin, and that insures the
broker against loss through the deprcci-
alton of the property purchased. An
erroneous impression prevails that there
is no genuine transaction in stocks when
a purchase or sale is made in the New
York Stock Exchange, but that the
whole is fictitious. This is true of some
of the grain marts, but in the Stock
Exchange the stock certainly Is bought,
paid for and delivered, and may be
transferred into the name of u customer
on the company's books. That is one
reason why the transactions of the bro
kers become SO enormous and why SO
much capital is required to carry on Il
brokerage business. A broker who buys
100 shares of Lackawanna at 81 gives
hisl check for $4,000 to the broker
who sold it, and gets the stock certiii
cate in return. If he buys 1000 shares
he pays $4,000 for it. In other words,
he gives 500 share. 1t brisk times the
big stock brokerage houses do 20,00(
share; day. and give checks or take
checks for S2,000,000. They need no
have that much capital, for the sale;
and purchases, as a rule, about balance
one another; and the total OF the check,
received equal the total paid out. The
purchase OF stocks is very simple pro
cess, although to the world at largo
there is about it enough of the h,d,Ier
to make it II deep aud fascinating mys
terry. 1t is notable that genuine broker
rarely retire from Wall Street unless i
be because they have accumulated larg,
riches or have grown too old TO Go III
work The reason is that II is y yer,
profitable business. A very few Gus
toners will keep broker going Tn
commissions are large. To buy an,

The same applies TO newspapers sent

vided that marKed copies may be sent
out at the same rate. One Of the
most important provisions of the bill
is that which authorizes the post

to the regular postage, shall insure

brisk times trade in 10000 shares day
get $1,000 for doing so. For weeks and
for months in the booming times of
1880 81 the daily transactions on the
Stock Exchange amounted to 5000
shares. On this the commissions were
the enormous sum of $l25.000 As
there are |, 100 members of the Exchange
it is plain that the average profit to each
was something more than 500. 1t is
very easily earned, but capital is re-
quired, first to purchase a Stock Tx
change seat, and then to pay in full for
the stocks which the customers buy,
The greatest trouble is to get the GUS
toners, While very many business and
professional men speculate in Wall
Street, they are careful not to let tho
fact be known. 1t is hard, there
fore, for q broker to drum up custom.
To openly solicit it in business houses
or social gatherings would he to
meet rebuff at every hand, 1t is
only through gaining extensive ac-
quaintanceship and through advertising
that brokers get new customers, Bnt
once gotten, customer who VII trade
in a few hundred shares of stock in
day, or even week. is indeed Il bo-
nanza. Every 100 shares means S2j to
the broker, as already explained
Yet there are hundreds Of spectators
in the street who trade in 5000
10 10000 u week. Hosts of Wall Street
brokers have had the command over
themselves to abstain from specializing
on their own hook, when they must
have known that the market was
sure to 90 in given direction. These
are the men who grow rich with great
rapdity. They are calm and cool
headed in every emergency, while their
brother brokers are wild over prospect
i've losses or reckless over possible
gains. They are content to take com.
missions and let the spectators run TIE
risk. The cool-headed broker has Il
sure fortune If he will only avoid specu-
lation on his own hook-that as a ru.o
means ruin to every one. be he broker

History OF the Garment Which is Com
ferred on Catholic Archbi,hop'.
The pallium is a narrow band OF wool
cncircling the shoulders, with pendants
in front and behind, and is worn over
the chasuble. 1t is evidently remnant
or a souvenir of an ampler garment. As
the sacerdotal state merely represents
border of an ancient robe of the same
name, which enveloped the entire per-
son-all but the embroidered parts be-.
ing now cast aside so it is with the pal.
lium.
Various opinions have been held as to
its origin some ascribe it to the Jewish
ephod, to the Roman toga, and Others
to the ordinary mantle Of same name
worn by Romans. BY church authori-
ties it is claimed that st. Paul, the first
hermit, near the end of his days receiv-
ing q visit from st. Anthony, begged
him to procure for him the robe of the
great Athanasias that he might be bu-
ried in it. On st. AnthonY's return with
the cloak, he found Paul already dead,
and. executing the pious request, took
for himself Paul's tunic Of palm leaves,
and ever afterwards wore it on the
high festivals of Easter and Pcntecost.
1t is also narrated that st. Igna-
thus, patriarch of Constantnople, wore
the cloak Of st. James the
Apostle. Liberatrs, the deacon
in the sixth century, states that it is
the custom at Alexandria for him who
succeeds deceased bishop to keep vigil
by the corpse OF the departed, and hav-
ing buried him to take the pallium OF
st. Mark and place it on his own neck,
after which he is held to lawfully oc-
cupy his place. According to this
writer each succeeding patriarch OF
Alexandria assumed the pallium of st.
Mark and was considered as legiti-
mately indicted into office.
A similar custom prevailed in the
Church at Constantinople. These facts,
it is argued, establish an antecedent
probability that the successor of st.
Peter assumed also as the insignia Of
his Office the palium of ST. Peter, and
in confirmation of the fact of the early
Popes wearing the pallium the protraits
OF the Popes in the Basilica of st. Paul
at Rome, in which the mosaic protraits

year 440, these early Pontiifs are uni

How Its Spread May be Generally Pre-
vented.
When this disease occurs in a family
it is question of the greatest impOr-
lance that its spread to other members
be prevented. 1t is not always possible
to send children away, nor is it always
safe as they may be infected and spread
the disease elsewhere. The best method
of preventing the spread of the disease
TO other members of the family is by
means OF dlsinfectiOa; and By disinIec-
ton is not meant the use of special sub
stances that destroy germs. but cleanli-
ness. In the first place keep the room
in which the sick child is confined thor
oughly ventilated; remove all supe.llu-
Gus furniture and carpe 5; destroy all
rags and bits of paper used in washing
the sick; put all linen and toweling used
in the room into boiling water and boil
them thoroughly till every germ is
killed, But still another thing must be
done; a principal source of the infection
is the skin, so bathing should be prac-
ticed, and after the bath oiling the body
all over. Oil serves to kill the germs;
they do not develop in it, or, if they do.
can not fly away into the air. With per
feet cleanliness there will be little spread
of the disease. Herald Of Health.
