"Pingree doesn't care a straw to

if he couldn't forever be In a tu-

WISE TICKET TAKER.
He Had q scheme to Protect Himself
From Theft.


Two small boys went into station on
tho Lake street al" road the other day
while the ticket agent was busy with some
work on the platform outside. A nickel
lay exposed in a tempting manner in the
little gate through which the passengers
shove their fares. and the boys took 1t.
When the ticket agent returned to his
post, the boys laid down a dime for their
fares and started TO pass through the turn
ttile, hut the agent did not move the re-
lease mechanism.
Another nickel, boys, - he said.
"How's that? The fare is cents, isn't
its"
Eyes, but yOu took nickel from the
window hero while l was outside, and
want it,"
After little argument the youngsters
weakened and handed back the money.
The train was behind time, and the agent
improved the time by cautiOning the boys
not to touch the money they might find
on the fare shelves OF the elevated road
stations
'It's just put there for trap" he said
$50 the agent can tell whether he has been
robbed or not, and if you take it there S
big chance Of your getting into serious
trouble. -
Pressed by Il man, who had come in and
overheard part of the conversation, for an
explanation Of the nickel trap, the agent
went on to say:
"We are frequently compelled to leave
our boxes for a few minutes TO look after
the stoves and attend to similar duties at
stations where there are no platform men.
"Most Of us keep several dollars In small
change piled up on the counter inside of
the railing, and il would be an easy matter
for sneak thief to reach through and get
"a handful of it. To count this money over
every time we return to the box would in
yolve considerable time end labor, and
while wo were doing it the thief, IL there
was onenround, would have a good chance
to get away before the shortage was dis
covered.
