A MATTER OF HONESTY.
Howard Fielding Answers a Co.,
 nundrum for Harper's Weekly.
A clubman's Opinion of the Armor-Plate Frauds and Thoughts Upon Fakes .n General, and the New York Fake
 in Particular.
lcopYRIeHr. 1894.

picked up file of Harper's Weekly in club reading-room the other day, and my eye fell upon an editorial about the armor-plate frauds.
 "Why!" exclaimed the impassioned writer, ''why don't the people make more fuss about this? Why don't they dance the scalp dance and sing the death song? Why don't they hang somebody for treason, and give the Weekly a chance for a frst-rate full page illustration?"
 Or words to that effect. laid down the file and paused for a reply It seemed to me that it was long overdue. The editorial was then some weeks old, and yet had not met any good citi- zens looking for a rope. l glanced around the rcading-room as if search ing for some one who could answer the Weekly's question. even read it aloud to old Bill Emery, who was sit ting on the other side of the table.
 By the horned mcon!" he exclaimed with an enthusiasm which convinced me that there really was strong feel ing on this subject among the people at large land Bill is at large, though doubt if he ought to be.) There's an idea in that. Look here: suppose a fellow made dicker with some work men in safe-factory Suppose he knew that they were making big safe for a bank or a trust company or some other blasted thing that has a lot of money that you and want. Suppose he got them to make one side of that safe out of iron so soft that fellow could whittle it with penknife just like that"
 ' Here Bill made motions as if he were whiting iron at a great rate. Then he extended his two hands, palms up ward, through the hole which he had cut in his own tobacco smoke, and withdrew them, full of imaginary green backs. tptaa .sss -.as U 'I believe there's something in it," he said with an energetic nod.
 But as to these frauds" .,ss
 Y. 'sDlamed shrewd game. Don't see how they're going to convict any body. call 1t good business."
 At this point MT. J. P. Bowers-one of our solid and conservative members dropped into the conversation. sasIt may have been good business" he said; land it may not. I don't be- lieve in snap judgments. We don't know yet who got the money or how much he got or where he stands for the future. l should say that the effect upon the armor-ma1ing business as whole might be unfortunate-very un-

AJoINr DEBATE
AT ADeER BETWEEN ROBERT wARNocK
 AND J. W. woRTHINGToN.

AT ADGER BETWEEN ROBERT WARHOCk
 AND J. W. woRTHINGToN.
 ADaER, Oct. 20.-[Special.] 1.-The joint debate between J. w. Worthington and Robert Warnock came off here tonight, Mr. James Hillhouse presiding. There was a large audience that listened atten- lively to both gentlemen. It was evident that the majority were with MT. Warnock and as Mir. Worthington made his first ap- pearance in the role of republican it was amusing to look at the faces of those who had followed him as democrats. This presto veto change does not suit the dyed h the wool democrats of Blue Creek, and though Mir. Warrington has many per- sonai friends here, yet the allegiance to party is above all friendship.
 Mir. Warnock ably presented the princi- ples of democracy that will live as long as this country Is the land of the free and the home of the brave. His presentation of the famous Aldrich lotter had telling effect.
 At ih, inclusion of the speaking, danc- ing was indnlsed in by the .a1ies and gen tle- ,..-.. present, the Hon. ]. w. Worthing- ton and Miss Sarah Hillhouse leading the grand march.
 After the ball was over ihe Hon. Wilson R. brown oI CoiLert was called upon and made spirited ten minute speech that elec- tr t"1 the audience and in closing sang Annie Laurie.

His Calling.

Breslau, a celebrated juggler, being at Canterbury with his troupe, met with such bad success that they were almost starved. He repaired to the church wardens and promised to give nights talings to the poor if the parish would pay for hiring a room, etc. The. charitable bait took, the benefit proved bumper, and the next morning the church wardens waited upon the wiz ard to touch the receipts.
 ''I have already disposed of dem,' said Breslau. De profits were for de poor. I have kept my promise and given de money to my own people, who are de poorest in dis parishl''
 'Sir!'' exclaimed the church wardens, 1 "this Is trick
 "I know it." replied the conjurer. Eve by my tricks. ."--Tid- 72

fortunate. Profits, should say, would probably be lessened all around. In all such matters it is well to look to the future"
 ''Blast the future!'' responded Mir. Emery. "I don't believe in playing too long game. Grab what you can and get away with it, is the motto of busi- ness in these days"
 ''At the same time," said Mir. Bowers, thoughtfully, "when large capital is invested, prudence is required to-"
 ''Blast prudence! What a fellow needs is imagination. When one fake is played out, get up another. 1t can be done in the same line as we'll as in another if man has head on his shoulders, and there's your capital sound as nut" F7r ve g.se
 The younger men present strongly approved of Emery's sentiments, but the oldersone were silent. They re- garded such controversies as distinctly immature, indicating an unfamiliarity with the world. a,t'g4s ..t "When you fellows get older," said one of them, you won't bother your ]. heads discussing the value of fakes; i you'll have all you can do inventing them for your own business" n 5.sIt seems to me-" said I, that the gross immortality of these proceedings ais the paramount consideration. In stbese days we are much too lax in our [ estimate of the wrong of cheating the 2 elgovernmens
 T went on eloquently in this strain for nearly five minutes, and then, as { nobody remained in the room, Istopped. lsIater, however. succeeded in discover ing Bill Emery, who was hiding in the corner of the, ibilliard-room. I was about to continue my remarks when he < interrupted me by saying:
 "Now, look here, Howdy, if you think there ought to be more fuss made about this matter, just gather all the business men in New York who wouldn't cheat the government if they got chance, and take them with you : to Washington to urge the authorities to prosecute. I'll drive the party over there in two-seated wagon, and we'll get a little dog to sit on the rear seat so that it won't be entirely unoccupied."
 That closed my efforts as modern Dhogenes looking through my club for an honest man. . - .--------
Birmingham age-herald., 1894-10-21

But perhaps the reader thinks that it is unfair to take the average of honesty in such circles as I frequent. where the moral debility resulting from great wealth and the perpetual desire for more is naturally great. It may be generally admitted that the rich are not honest. Let us, then, consider the others. It is necessary to live in very large city in order to appreciate how honesty falls when the basis of self interest is removed. In a town or city of moderate size the man who buys goods of you may buy again, unless he is transient summer visitor--in which case we all know he will get thrown down. But in vast variety of busi- ness in New York every customer is in the same position. lie probably won't come again anyway. Therefore he is fair prey.
 For instance, 1 went to the Casino theather rather late the other evening, and asked what sort of seats I could get. had a five-dollar bill in my hand, and was remorsefully clinging to it in the hope that there wouldn't be any seats and so should be spared an ex- travagance. It is dangerous to expose money in New York; and yet l think it would have been the same if had had it in my pocket. A little, sharp-nosed fellow who was selling the tickets reached out through the window and got that fve-dollar bill before could
Birmingham age-herald., 1894-10-21

even dodge. Then he slapped down two tickets and the change.
 Hold on" said l. Where are these seatsP" .#
 Ask the usher," he exclaimed. "Next gentleman. Pass on, pass onl"
 We'll. passed on. I couldn't pass in through the window because 1t is too small and I couldn't raise row out side because am too bashful. And the little man knew all about that. He read it in my eye. He got my money according, to Bill Emery's plan; and he didn't care a rap whether l ever came back to the theater or not, because there's fellow just like me born every minute. And Mrs. Fielding and I walked into the theater, where the usher put us up against the wall like a couple of brackets, and we sat there all the evening, acquiring a permanent squint by trying to see the stage around a corner.
 Here's a much simpler matter illus trating the same principle. We went into candy shop after tips theater, and Mrs Fielding inspected some ~ofsthls candies as we'll as she could through the top of the glass case.
 Are those chocolate marshmallows?" she asked, pointing to one of the little glass dishes.
 ''Yes, ma'am," said the polite clerk.
 "And those are chips?"
 "Yes, ma'am."
 "Nougatines?"
 "Yes, ma'am."
 "Well, give me pound of them ali"
 And the polite clerk filled a pound box from the dishes which she had in- dicated, and there wasn't marshmal- low, nor a chip, nor nougatine in the whole lot, and he knew it. But it was easier to wait on her in that fashion than to use up valuable, just-after-the theater time, in getting what she want ed, and the chances were that she'd never come back anyway.
 There's a furniture store on Four teenth street whose proprietor told me with perfect frankness that he never expected to have the same person for customer twice. His business is all transient. His method is to put thir- ty dollar couch on the sidewalk and mark it nine dollars. The unsuspect-. ing buyer walks in and says that he wants a couch like that. The gentle manly proprietor or one of his em- ployes informs the stranger that, un- fortunately, the couch on the sidewalk is the last of that line and that it is sold. He may even mention conf-

dentially that it is sold to young John Jacob Astor, or it may be Chauncey Depew, and if the customer smiles the salesman will pull a card with one of those names on it from crevice in the couch. Then the customer will be shown a seven-dollar couch marked thirteen dollars and fifty cents, and he will probably buy it; and when he gets 1t home he will sit on it, and three of its legs will break and the fourth will slide out sideways, and he will not go back to that store; but who cares.

ASSOCIATION MEETING.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-A meeting of the
 American Association of Professional Foot ball Clubs was held in New York on Thurs day. All clubs were represented. After fuil discussion it was deemed for the best interest Of all club members that the season be brought to close on October 20. The late period at which the association got under way on account of the prolongatlon of the baseball season and the difficulty of avoiding conflict with the regular college football games proved serious obstacle to carrying out 8 schedule of games, but the a ssociation feels that with the experience 1t gained it will be in good condition to reor- eanize in the opening in 1S95. The asso- citation will, during the winter, arrsn 2e to formulate a new association on some- " hat different line ready for spring work.
