A Card or q Photograph?

"Would you rather have my card or my
photograph
Two young men who had been discuss
ing bottle of wine in an uptown picture
gallery were preparing to part.
"Your card will do; I don't want to put
you to so much trouble"
'No trouble at all. If you like I'll put
my portrait on the back of the card"
He thereupon drew from his pocket a
small rubber stamp and imprinted on the
back of his card very creditable likeness
of himself.
An inquisitive reporter, who overheard
the dialogue, took pains the next day to
learn to what extent the fad had gone.
He found that there are several concerns
in the city where portrait stamps are
made, similar in style to the rubber
stamps, containing ones name and ap-
pended to it pocket lead pencil. These
stamps cost from So to SIS each, and are
from one to three inches square. All the
stamp makers require is tintype por-
trait of the customer and a money order.
The stamps wear well and are much af
fected by young clerks and East side bust
ness men.-New York Mail and Express.

Patrons of a Toney Restaurant.

The demands made on clerk at Del
monico's are almost infinite. He must
be able to answer all sorts of queries
from astronomy to horse car routes in
San Francisco; from the news of the latest
fire, races or accident to the rules of So
cial precedence at the court of st. James
People are continually wanting checks
cashed, tickets for entertainments, money
changed, bills made out, etc.
The other day an infantile looking dude
came in and cried:
"What's my bill?'
"Ninety-seven cents" said the clerk,
after short computation.
"All right; don't let it run over ST."
and the youth departed with flourish.
People send servants in at all hours for
bouillon, salad, wine, cigars or cigarettes,
some of the latter being doubtless for
women.-New York Tribune.

The Chinaman's Devotion to Rice,

The Chinaman's devotion to his rice Is
as great as an Englishman's to his dinner,
and at their regular times for ''chow"-
II in the morning and in the afternoon
nothing can take him away from his
bowl of rice. AS all the city life is al
fresco one sees miles Of feeding Cinnamon
If he progresses through the streets at
their meal hours. In each open room or
shop the scene is the samoa circle Of
dirty heathens gathered around a table,
Ihoveling the rice into their mouths as
fast as chopsticks can play, the edges Of
the bowls being held to their mouths
merely as funnel to direct the stream.
One can stand in the shops, vainly waiting
to purchase, and surly Chinaman will
only come forward when he has finished
his bowl of rice, and has sublime in
difference to trade, profits and cheating
when it is his rice time.-Canton Letter.

Curious Condolences.

A London telegram relates an amusing
incident that occurred in case on trial
in one of the civil courts on Saturday.
One Of the attorneys in the case was Mr..
Henry F. Dickens, son of the novelist, and
during the progress of the trial he brought
down the house by calling as q witness
John Pickwick. Quoth the presiding
baron: What an appropriate witness to
be sworn for a DickensW This caused
immense merriment, which increased
when Mr.. Dickens added: "By still
more curious coincidence the witness is o
descendant Of Mr.. Moses Pickwick, pro-
prietor Of the Bath coach, from which I
have reason to believe the character Of
Mr.. Pickwick was taken, and 1 verify be-
heve that one of the reasons why 1 was
retained in the case was that might call
Mr.. Pickwick. "-Indianapolis Journal.

Hotel clerks in New TORI.

Hotel Clerks In New TOTE.
It is exceedingly difficult for a hotel
clerk out of employment to secure posi-
ton in any of the leading hotels. There
are at least three clerks who have held po-
sitions in the principal hotels who have
been out of employment for a year or
more They have given up hope Of Sc
curing employment here in any of the
leading hotels. Yet they ranked high
among their associates, and in every re-
spect were first class men. But they say
that when vacancy occurs in any of the
hotels the position is given to man from
some other city. A clerk from Phila-
delphia, Boston or Chicago is preferred.
More people come here from those cities
than from any others. A. clerk from
Philadelphia, for instance, it is expected
will influence a large number of people
from the Quaker City to stop at the hotel
which employs him, whereas New York
clerk will not possess such an influence.

G. Dun a. Co. say:

Tariff Considerations.

The Interstate Commerce Commission at
Washington has issued an order upon the
railroad companies comprising the South
ern Railway and Steamship Association.
directing them TO appear before the Com
mission on Dec. Is for the purpose OF Al gem
eral examination and investigation of their
tariffs and classincations. The order is
based upon an inspection of the tariff and
classifcations and upon information and
complaints filed. from which it appears that
these companies in many cases make IA
greater charge for the transportation of a
like kind of property for II short than for
longer distance over the same line in the
same direction upon interstate traffic; that
the rates actually charged TO shippers are
not the rates given upon their schedules,
bnt so-called combination rates are made,
and that special tariffs issued upon single
shipments are limited in time.
