There is somewhat ancient dame who
lives near Washington square. She is by
no means good looking, being good like
ness of the queen in ssAlice in Wonder
land" The lady is most methodical in
her habits and always catches the same
Seventh avenue car every morning. An
other habit of hers is always to give the
conductor two dollar bill. He endured
it for some time, but when he found out
that every morning the same thing oc-
CURED, and there was large hole made in
his available small change, he determined
to put stop to it. In parenthesis it may
be mentioned that two dollars is the limit
for which passenger may demand change.
A few mornings ago the conductor got
his revenge, for in return for the bill he
handed the woman one hundred and nine
ty-five pennies There was an awful ex-
plosion, but the conductor remained firm,
and then she exclaimed she ibid not want
them" A Thompson street fellow, whose
shortness Of hair and general appearance
seemed to denote that the state had been
taking care of him, expressed himself as
ready to relieve the lady of her change
This ELECTED no reply, and soon the cop
pers disappeared in wonderful old reti-
-cule, and she herself got OFF at Thompson
and Canal streets. She il not travelling on
that car any more,

An Omcer ut the PostohFce for the
Public Convenience.
The big Christmas business at the post
Office is being managed this year with as
small degree of friction as could possibly
be expected. To facilitate matters in the
stamp department another window has
been opened and crowds are in front of
each all day long. Beginning with yester-
day morning Officer Bradley was detailed
fer duty in managing the crowds who
throng continually in the corridor before
the stamp and other windows. His duties
are to direct the uninitiated where they
wish to go, with the least interference for
the others, and also to keep the lines be-
fore the stamp windows in their right or
der. In this way everything yesterday
passed off with little if any Inconvenience,
even though there were SO many more peo-
pie out than usual. The officer will remain
there during the busy season.

At some Time IN the Enture.

The park commission in view of the need
Of good safe place for skating, near the
city and easy of access, have had some
talk about purchasing land on the West
Haven and Westville side of West river, to
add to the park lands tbereabouts already
bought for public park purposes. The idea
is to Hood the meadows in the skating sea-
sons to the depth of from eighteen to
thirty inches, by means of flood gate on
Derby avenue. Nothing is likely to be
done in the unatter, however, for some
years to come.

Railroad bonds were dull. The business reached

Stocks opened slightly lower and the market,
outside of few shares, was devoid Of feature.
The vanderbilts were the strong points in the

strong In the early dealings, but sagged away
later in the day, losing most Of the gain. Read

Faster Time to Now York and Boston.
The Boston demand for more rapid
Transit between that city and New York
has led to this statement in the Boston
Herald:
1t Is understood that in the spring, when the
New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad
company has completed the greater part of its
track improvements, the speed Of the railway
trains between New York and Boston will be
SO increased as to permit the time of railroad
travel between Boston and New York to be re-
duced by the fastest trains to five hours and a
half. The statement Is also made that the board
of directors of the Boston and Albany railroad
have voted to use q considerable part of the
money to be obtained by the sale of new stock to
the strengthening and relaying of certain Sec
tons of their track, and that in consequence of
these changes saving in the distance will be
made Of not less in the aggregate than eleven
miles. Not only will there be this gain in dis
lance, but by doing away with quite a number of
bends In the road II will De easy to maintain a
very much higher rate of speed than is now pos
sihle, with no greater wear upon the tracks and
rolling stock, and with even less Inconvenience
to those travelling on the trains.
