His Sweet Innocence.

young man leaned up against the
counter Of a branch telegraph office
where two pretty young ladies' are en-
ployed as telegraphers, says an exchange.
He had been chatting with them for about
an hour but had forgotten to say that at
one period of his life he himself had been
an operator. During a lull in the CONVEX
sation one of the young ladies' opened"
her key and said to the other:
What do you think Of his nibs at the
counter?"
Don't think much of him." was the re-
ply. WHY"
"oh. he makes me tired-he talks like a
parrot"
"He makes me tired. too-wish he would
sneak"
The young man broke In at this juno
ture and said: Ladies, l thank you for
the compliments you have bestowed upon
me and as you are tired Of my company
I'll sneak.
The numerous colors OF the rainbow
would not be sufficient to describe the
changes that took place In the young la
dies faces There is a moral attached to
this tale and young ladies In branch Of
fees and elsewhere would do well to take
heed

Greater New York.

The bill granting a charter for Greater
New York has passed the New York leg
islature and only awaits the signatures of
the mayors of New York, Brooklyn and
Long Island city. Already the politicians
are astir. and are eagerly discussing the
availability Of the different men who have
been named as candidates for mayor. 1t is
regarded as great honor to be the first
mayor of Greater New York, and also to
be member of ore of the two legislative
bodies which the new municipality will
have The mayor will necessarily have ex-
traordinary powers and the two legisla-
tive houses will have so much to do that
they will be in session pretty much all
the time. They will attract as much atten-
ton as the general assembly of the state.
The upper House will have twenty-nine
members and the lower House sixty mem
bers In the upper House there will be
member from each council district, which
district will contain an average population
of $4,000. In the lower House there will be
a member from each assembly district. An
innovation is that ex-mayors of Greater
New York will be entitled to seats in the
upper House for life. and heads of depart
ments can sit in the lower House while
they are in Office. but neither ex-mayors
nor heads of departments will have the
right to vote. In the upper House the
members will hold office for four years
and in the lower House for two years. The
mayor will hold Office for four years.
The population of Greater New York will
be about 100000. The city will rank sec
ond in size in the world. and will have an
area Of 300 square miles. Its greatest
length will be IS miles. and it will have
about 5000 miles Of streets II will have
about 100 miles Of elevated roads, and LOO
miles of surface street railroads. These are
only a few of the features of the city
which will eventually be the greatest
in the world. not excepting Chicago.

Gen. Mright,n nefense.

Controller General Wright regards the
attack made upon him by the Elberton
branch of the Interstate Building and
Loan Association, because of his connec-
ton with the Southern Building and Loan
Association of Atlanta as a director as
inspired by some one anxious to injure
him in the estimation of the people of
Georgia. 1t certainly looks as if such
were the case. What has the Interstate
Building and Loan Association to do
with the affairs OF the Southern Building
and Loan Association; and of the nine
directors of the Southern Building and
Loan Association why should Gen.
Wright have been singled out for attack?
No effort is made to show that Gen.
Wright is more responsible for the disas-
ter from which Southern Building and
Loan Association suffered than any one
OF the other directors; and, as the con-
| troller general shows in the dispatch pub
lished in our news columns yesterday,
the stockholders themselves appear to be
more responsible for this misfortune than
the directors, since 10000 of them. out of
| the 1900, sent proxies to the president of
the association with authority to do about
what he pleased, and II pleased him to
| loot the concern.
Gen. Wright says that he attended ev-
| cry one OF the meetings of the directors.
and there IS absolutely nothing to show
| that he did anything that enabled the
president to dispose Of the securities of
the association in a way not permitted by
/ law
There is law, II we are not mistaken,
4 which requires that seventy-hve per cent
of all the securities of such building and
loan associations as that of the Southern
| shall be deposited with the state reasu-
rer. We are not in a position to say
whether this law was complied with or
| not by the Southern. If Il were not, some
blame probably attaches to all of the di-
! rectors for not requiring compliance with
| it. but not more 20 Gen. Wright than any
one of the other directors
AS far as we are able to see the at
| tack of the Elberton branch OF the In
| terstate Building and Loan Association
upon him is unjust and lndefensible. In
the estimation of those who know him It
viii do him no harm. and those who do
not know him, except by reputation. will
hardly believe him guilty OF neglect OF
duty without satisfactory evidence of
that fact

Two manufacturers sat before the big
fireplace of a Chicago hotel recently, says
the Chicago Tribune, and as they enjoyed
their post-prandial cigars and stretched
their legs toward the fire, exchanged ideas
on business touched upon general topics,
and finally drifted into discussion of the
city itself
Said A: "A man has a right to be proud
OF Chicago. It's the coming center of
American life. We have everything here
great manufactures, fine parks, immense
interests of all kinds.
True" said B, land there is an addi-
tional source of pride among US that a
vast majority overlook"
And that is"
Our junk shops"
A received this information with so de-
risive laugh that B turned in his leather
chair and said Friend A. l was only half
in earnest when 1 spoke, but l mean it
just the same; and 10 prove my words l
VIII tell you what 1 will do. I'll wager SIS
that you cannot come with me now to a
junkshop l know of in this city and ask
for any three things that a man might
reasonably want and not be at once sup
piled from the stock on hand"
Done" said A promptly, and they at
once got into their overcoats and started
out on the quest
At a little dilapidate store on Clark
street B paused with his hand on the
latch. "All ready?" he asked, tentatively.
"All ready" returned A. Il have been
cudgeling my brain on the way down here
and l count that money won"
Behind a counter heaped with knick-
nacks of almost every description stood a
little Weazen-faced man in blue waist
coat and roundabout, who smiled cheer
fully on the men as they entered and re-
marked brightly upon the GOODNESS of the
Ind hat fc Z ha
gentlemen" he inquired with profession
al brevity.
Il am in search of a Rose Noble of the
time of Henry WILL" said A. Have you
any in stock?"
"Ah, how fortunate! Only one. But
here it is and l don't believe you could
have found another in town"
Thanks" said A, but | am not through
yet. Just give me a nose-ring of a Fam
best warrior. ! need one to complete my
Indian cabinet"
with pleasure, sir. Anthropology is
my speciality. Would you like a triangle
or the ordinary ring?"
''The regular thing will do me- this
rather eurtly. But I have to trouble
you once more"
drew himself up for the final effort,
shot side glance at smiling B, and said
slowly: Be good enough to show me a
second hand altar cloth"
B trembled for his $25, and turned in
alarm to the junk dealer The little man
was somewhere under the counter search
ing among the debris that filled the room.
with lace upon it or plain velvet or
plush Here is a beauty with lilies of the
valley in silk, and here is French cloth
worked with golden feur de lis. Have
you any preference.
None whatever" returned A dryly.
Here is your money, but you may keep
the goods. I have reward enough in con-
Grming a former suspicion that my friend
is an authority on pawnshops."
