Quarles stood on the floor of the ex-
change, He was essaying work entirely
new to him and felt nervous. One thing
he wished to conceal, for time at least,
and that was his connection with news
paper. Itwould not be pleasant, because
of "guys" or ''jobs" ON the part of the
''funny men," to make his journal ridic-
ulous and write himself down an ass.
He Joined group of acquaintances, and
in the course of conversation queried,
SHOW about Mohawk" "A hundred
shares at par, ten days." briefly respond
ed one of those addressed. Here was a
point for his ARTICLE. The much ham
mered stock was rising. Quarles pulled
out his note book and recorded the state
ment. His companions looked surprised.
The group soon separated, but little
later one of the "boys'' strolled along and
said: "Two hundred Mohawk MI 101, ten
days" Another rise; another point for
that article, and down it went just be-
low the first memorandum. He nodded
thanks to his informant. A third man
approached. Hello, Quarles," was his
greeting, Give hundred Mohawk, ten
days, 101." "All right, old man." was
the response, and he made the third
entry.
AS he returned the book to his pocket
Quarles felt a cold chill go down his
back. 1t flashed across his mind that he
had been taking bids as well as notes.
He left the floor, rushed to his Office and
sank in a chair. The boy looked at him
amazed.
"Are yer sick, bcss?' he ventured to
inquire.
mo, Sam, not sick, but an ASA
monumental ass"
"De poor old hoodoo's got it in der
neck again." murmured Sam, sympa-
thetically, as he resumed his novel.
Quarles sat, mentally benumbed, until
the clangor of bells, whistles and chimes
told off the hour of noon. Then he
reused himself. ~ must go to The
Plunger office and resign in time for
Boomer to put another man on the days
work" he groaned.
He found Boomer in his private room.
With him was a short, gray whiskered
sarcastic looking man, to whom Quarles
bowed reverently. 1t was Irvington.
Cant allow this John, can't allow IT.;
glad of your good fortune, but have to
bounce you; must keep commercial
column clear of prejudiced views; don't
want reporters specializing, but am
deuced glad you made a strike, old fell
low"
Then Irvington spoke: II don't know
how you fathomed the secret of the Mo
hawk corner, young man, but congrat-
ulate you on your shrewdness and nerve.
l shall have some business for you in a
few days"
Again the general; snow get out,
Quarles, you are bounced; come and dine
with me tonight in celebration of your
luck. I'm busy now; good day"
How Quarles got to the sidewalk he
never knew. Benumbed before, he was
now dazed Something struck like a
blow on his brain. 1t was newsboy's
cry: "All about the big corner in Mo
hawk Tremendous rise in price. Pa
per, sir?"

For his part the broker idly threaded
the ticker tape through his hands, glanced
ut the quotations and listened hopelessly
to the rush of feet along the hallway.
He hardly expected any one to turn the
knob and enter. No one was giving him
business, and that undertaken on his own
account had turned out badly. The men
in the "street' liked him. They said he
was 'good fellow" and always had a
cordial greeting. But they placed their

SIR. MAYNARD moved 10 declare the bal

clared the nominee of the convention.
Mr.. Conger withdrew hls motion and
the motion OF Maynard carried.
J.E. Mcbride then nOmlnated Kan
som K. Reed a. candidate for clerk OF

ated Michael c. Duffy for the same Of
fee.
The first informal ballot resulted IN
