An ingenious machine attends to the
duties of bookkeeping in a dime saw
ings bank in New York city. 1t marks
in a depositor's book the amount of
his deposit and makes a duplicate of
the entry, on tape locked in box
attached to the machine At the same
time. the amount Of the deposit is au-
tomatically added to the total of the
banks transactions. so that a glance
at the latter would tell just how much
money the bank had received since its
organization.
There are three. Of these machines.
One is used to record the deposits of
men depositors. and another to record
the deposits of women. while Il third is
used to record the amount of drafts
made on the bank-that is. the amount
OF money paid out by II.
The machine is placed on a table at
the teller's right hand. In front of it
is a Keyboard With rows of figures ar
ranged like the letters on a typewriter
When deposit is made the teller

places the depositor's book under n cyl
inder flied with movable figures on the
side of the machine. Then he pulls the
figures on the keyboard that represent
the amount OF the deposit. These fig
ures are connected by wires with the
figures on the cylinder. The teller next
moves lever and that sets the ma
chine in motion. The amount of the
deposit Is printed on the book and at
the same time on a tape locked in a
box placed just above the cylinder, SO
that a double entry is made. Should
the teller make any mistake. there Is
an ingenious continuance attached to
the machine that would prevent it
from working and thus notify him of
the error.
After the entries have been made in
the depositors book and on the bank s
tape another cylinder is set in motion.
This is in the middle of the machine,
and contains movable figures running
up into the millions. These figures tell
the total of the banks receipts since it
was organized. and the amount that
has just been deposited is added to it.
AT the end of a days business the
officials of the bank add together the
totals registered on the two receiving
machines. deduct from them the total
registered on the paying out machine
and strike a trial balance in moment.

Anecdotes of Hon. Chauncey NJ

multitude since his candidacy for the
New York senatorship has focused
him in the public eye The Washing

than Chauncey Depew fell into the
hands of one of the most no ted of the
transatlantic card sharps on a vOy-
age which he made to England about
seven years ago. Mr.. Depew smiles
beatifically even yet when he reflects
upon how he won $500 from Tom Nc
Garrahan. who died in aff1uence three
years ago. after having followed the
steamers" for many years. McGarra-
han was introduced to Mr.. Depew by
one of the latter's intimate chums and
fellow voyagers. The latter. who was
and still is one of the elderly wags of
New York. knew all about McGarra
han. and so did lot of the other
friends of Mr.. Depew on board. These
friends Of the great Chauncey who
knew about McGarrahan and his
record got together and made a pool
that they would get the gambler and
the great nominator together at a
game of baccarat. Some of them bet
that the thing couldn't be done. while
others laid their money the opposite
way. The gambler, McGarrahan.
wasn't informed of the scheme, but he
was simply introduced to Mr.. Depew
and given an opportunity to follow his
natural bent. McGarrahan was a
polished middle-aged Irishman. a

to prove several times for the benefit

gambler. finding business bit dull.
finally invited Mr.. Depew to Join him
in little game of baccarat. Mr.. De-
pew hesitated and consulted with his
conscience for a moment. but the
Irishman was persuasive.
Il have not hitherto played cards
quite so publicly said Mr.. Depew.
but as don't suppose I am any bet

hand or two"
The two men sat down at one of the
tables. and all of Mr.. Depew's friends
who were in on the scheme gathered
round to see how he made out Mr..
Depew won $500 from the Irish gam
bier within two hours. Then one Of
the stewards informed him that his
ward. who was taking the voyage with
him. was i'll in her stateroom, and Mr..
Depew hastily withdrew with his VIM
nings and was in attendance upon the
young woman for the remainder of the
voyage.
