SAVING THEIR MONEY.
Devices of the Improvident to Keep frcrn
Getting Broke.
TErou, tho Now N-orI- St1D


Two young crooks were arrested some
time ago on suspicion of committing high
way robbery by knocking down drunken
man and riiling his pockets. When they
were searched Leio,e being sent TO their
cells, the halves .. TWO one-dollar bills
were found in a pocket of one of the young
men, and the natural inference was thar
the bills were torn in getting them out Of
the drunkards pocket After the young
men were locked up, another of the same
gang heard Of the arrest and hunted up
one of the detectives. He learned about
the finding of the bills. "Were they like
these ?" he asked, taking the other por-
tions of the same bills from his pocket.
"Yes," said the detective, "and guess
want you, too"
Hold on" said the crook. "Come with
me into this saloon and I'll prove to you
that this is dead straight"
The detective accommodated him, and
on reaching the bar the Young man said
to the cashier "What did | say this after
noon when | tore them bills In half and
gave halt TO Eddie"
"You said, as near as | can recol,ect,
Take them and keep them until you meet
me i'll the morning. There wiil be one
Sunday that we won't be broke
That's what ! said, said the crook,
"and there's lots Of fellows to prove il"
There was no reason to doubt the story,
and the cashier said he had seen it done
before by fellows vino were afraid to trust
themselves with money for iesr of spend
lug it too quickly. He said there was one
customer Of the place who tore bills in
half in this manner and left portion Of
them in his care occasionally.

Make Fortune.
A half-dozen of the most successful men
of New York were recently asked what
chance young men have to get on in the
world these days. Jay Gould, Russell
Sage, James Gordon Bennett, Dr. Norvin
Green and Charles A. Dana said the out
look was never so good as now.
"What one quality should they possess
to succeed best?" was the question asked
of each.
Russell Sage replied: Caution" Jay
Gould, Perseverance DIR. Green, "Hard
work." Mr. Bennett, Enterprise" Mr..
Dana, 'Brains."
Perhaps Joseph Pulitzer, of the World,
summed it up in the best way:
"My dear sir" he said to an applicant
for position on the World, some time
ago, "what can you do?"
"Anything," was the cheerful reply.

do some one thing better than another ?"
ooh, yes" was the response. 81 can

"Oh," was Mr.. Pulitzer's reply, ''fertile
in IDEAS" And he drew his chair up to
his visitor ard peered anxiously into his
face. "Then you are just the man Iwant.
How many good ideas have you lying
around loose that l could utilize in in
creasing the circulation of the Worldf'
"Oh, could give you twenty" was the
calm reply.
"Twentyp said Mr.. Pulitzer in astonish-
ment.
"Yes, sir, twenty"

around the town and enjoy yourself in the

as you say"
The young man did send his ideas
carefully written out, and they were
promptly returned TO him as worthless.
Instead of riding through the park in a
luxurious coach, he is now holding down a
chair in a Bowery cheap lodging-house.
He possessed brass, but not brains.

when Crime is Dull.

''How long will de Gran Jury set?"
asked tall woe-begone negro of Justice
Chester in Camden yesterday.
Cant tell" replied the Justice, "may
be two or three weeks yet"
81 guess I'll take de risk and lick him
anyhow" remarked the negro.
''What's the matter?" asked the Justice.
'De old woman is gwine wild Sam john
sing agin, an l thot l would wait till de
Gran Jury got done sittin,' but dere will
be racket in my hous, dis night, Gran
Jury or no Gran Jury"
Justice Chester declared that while the
Grand Jury's session lasted the negro
quarter of Camden was almost as quiet as
Buffers Cemetery. But as soon as the
Grand Jurys deliberations ended petty
crimes of all sorts we're rampant. and in
Vulnerable suits followed. By the time
another Grand Jury is sworn in, however,
half the cases are forgotten. and most of
the other half are ignored for lack of evi-

A REPLY.

Yes. Laugh and the world laughs with thee; y
God mace it joyful world;
But If from the hight of fortune
Thou hast been III a moment hurled,
When that same gay world hath heard thee
Cry out from the fire or the food,
There were ever brave hearts to venture,
For thy rescue, their own life e-blood.
The world hath scant time for weeping,
'Tis a busy, hurrying throng-
They may not list to the POETS plant
OR the singers mournful song
But if. midst the rush for the crowded car,
There cometh a cry of fear,
There is ever pause in the widest din,
And strong helping hands are near
Then find no fault with the sunshine,
God made the world bright 10 be,
He hath made leaf shelter for every bird
And song-bir for every tree.
But unto the human heart the law
Cometh for bitter or sweet
The measure which thou to the world 9ott
give.
Such measure the world will meet.
If thou hast but kept thine own heart
Loving and pure, aud free
From the selfish love of the glittering gold,
Then the world viii weep with thee;
Or if thou has sought for riches
And used them for noble ends,
Then neither in Joy nor sorrow
Shalt thou lack true hearted friends.

| Francisque Sarcey thinks it is the best play
now running in Paris.
Steele Mackaye's latest play, "Au Arrant
Knave," has not proven great success. It
will be withdrawn at Kansas CITY next
week, and give place to "The Henrietta"
in which Frank Mordaunt will assume
Mr.. Cranes old part. Neither Stuart Rob
son nor Mr.. Crane have been successful
with their new ventures.
Henry Irving said few weeks ago to an
interviewer that the reason why there are
so many unemployed actors in England at
present is that there isan enormous influx
of beginners" The same is probably true
in America, with the additional burden to
the American professional of an @Infux''
of about 1,500 English actors.

''Nanon' received its first presentation
in England at Birmingham, lately, under
the management of Gerard Coventry, who
is also the stage manager Of the company.
Laura Clement sang the title role, and the
Birmingham critics gave the performance
much commendation, and, considering that
this town is one of the musical cities Of
England, and the scene of the big yearly
festival, this favorable verdict is worthy Of
being noted.

Miss Pauline Hall, the prima donna Of
the Casino, has more valuable jewelry than
any other actress in the United States.
She has a pair of pearl earrings, worth
kings ransom, and diamonds galore, and
yet no one ever heard of her losing them,
or having them stolen for advertising pur-
poses. More than 100000 worth OF spark
ling gems are slowed safely away in a safe
deposit company, and every week the
pretty and talented woman examines her

She has enough complete sets to make a
full change every week for three months.
