The Laugh Is on Mott.

The Mexican Central boys think
they have q good one on Charley Mott.
For some time past Charley has been
hosting on this end of the Mexican
Central, but all this time he has been
wanting 20 get on the road firing. The
officials of that line gratified the wish
es of the earnest employe Wednesday
and sent him south as
fireman of a switch ; engine
which was being transferred light
from Juarez to chihuahua. Charley
mounted the engine and went at the
work in earnest and the engine pulled
south out of Jusrez with brig ht
smile playing aorund his mouth.
When the engine began to devour the
steam, however, the brave fireman
worked faithfully. but regardless.of his
efforts the light engine died for want
of steam when the engine reached
Samalsyuca. It is said he made q
second effort and reached chihuahua
all right, very tired but great deal
wiser than when he left Juarez.

HE CLAIMS TO KNOW.
a Man Offers a Seemingly Absurd
Wager But Claims to Know
Whereof He SpeakS.-Food For
Thnrrnnf

Thought.
"Do you know" said q prominent
railroad official yesterday to q mar
three years the Southern Pac. fic will
have III move their yards and shops
from the ground on which they are at
present located
The Individual to whom these words
were addressed took on sort of susDi-
cious smile and looked at the speaker
through his eyebrows.
''You may smile at that assertion if
you wish, but L will put up 800 and
leave my money stand that within
three years from now the Southern
Pacific will have their yards and shops
on the fiat along the line of the E. P. &
N. E. transfer track, long distance
south of their present location"
"What will cause all this changer
asked the listener with q tinge of SIM
certify 10 his voice.
ION, you are coming to it are you?
Well, tell you. You were never in q
railroad company to have their yards
and do switching in the center of
it. Not much. Now, this city is fast
forming group of fine dwellings
around the S P. yards and shops. The
town is going in that direction and
gradually the fancy residences are
crOwdiDg in on them and the result
will be that the S. P. will have to
move and that, too, within the next
three years."
SIS that all you have on which to
base your assertion" asked the other.
"Well, I consider that sufficient
grounds to wager even more money on
than l offered you moment ago, but 1
still have more. A few months ago
when the Southern Pacific officials
made a very important visit to this
city, happened to be in their compa-
ny. They observed the rapid growth
of this city and how rapidly the resid-
ence portion of the city was centering
in the vicinity of their shops. 1t was
after carefully studying these condi-
tions that the officials went to the
ground along the river and inspected
it with a view to moving their shops
and yards. While looking over the
grounds one of the officials said to me:
and we may as we'll get the location now
as any time He told the truth. 1t will
be only a matter of time and that time
is not far Distant
Whether or not there was anything in
what the official was talking about Is
Question'but from the present outlook it
would seem that moving their shops is
the least OF the troubles or the SOntn-
ern Pacific officials. Improvements
are going on all the while, and the
new roundhouse. which was construct
ed at great cost is, as yet, scarcely
completed.
But, with all this, the man who Of
fered the wager that they would move,
has furnished a great deal of food for
thought. 1t is true that the S. p.
yards cover a portion of our most de-
sirable residence land and it is also
true that fashionable residences are
crowding in that direction and when
building is obstructed by these yards
the company will be asked to remove
them. AS stated above, it will be only
q few years until the residences are
crowding that locality, in consequence
of which it will be comparatively q
short time before the CRY will make
q request that the yards be removed to
some other locality.

TENTH ARTIcLE-BANK BOOKKEEPING.

The opening of the books of a National bank Is
very simple. as the required entries always
founded upon actual values.
The management Of the bank devolves mostly
upon the cashier the system OF accounting is his
selection and the number and form of books depend
upon the volume Of business transacted The cashier
keeps the records Of the proceedings of the board Of
directors and signs with the president the certificates
OF stock and the bank bills before issuing. All
drafts drawn other banks signed by him or
his assistant, and all notes and drafts which are
sent to other banks for collection are Endorsed by
him. All notes and drafts received from other banks
for collection Endorsed to him. He is the
proper officer certify checks drawn by depostors,
when required
The teller is the head Of the clerical department.
His principal duties are to receive and pay
money. He holds position Of great responsibility,
requiring tact and good judgment. He has charge
of the vault containing the currency coin and bonds.
In banks doing large business. there two tel
lers. paying and the other a receiving teller.
These positions require rapdity and skill in reckoning
and a thorough knowledge of negotiable paper. The
paying teller be familiar with the accounts OF
the depositors in order prevent their being
drawn.
The general bookkeeper usually has charge Of the
general journal and ledger; the individual bookkeep
the depositors accounts; and there number
of other clerks required for the collection and note
departments, etc.
A description Of the form of the different books
used in banks is considered unnecessary. They are
simple that any person who has kept mercantile
books can readily adapt himself to the forms used
in banks

BANK EXAMINATIONS.

In National banks there are generally one some
times two examinations each year by the United
States bank examiner. The examination is made In
accordance with rules laid down by the comptroller
of the currency, to whom his reports are made
These reports seldom if ever seen by tile bank
officers, and unless the examiner chooses to inform
them that everything is right they the wiser
In state banks, examinations made by state bank
examiners under state laws. these reports are fled
with the banking department of each state, and, Of
course the officers of banks do not have access 10
them
The banks not advised when these examiners
intend paying them visit, they expected to
their books and accounts in condition to he examined
any moment and any for negligence in this
respect is not tolerated.
When bank fails many people blame the national
and state bank examiners for not doing their duty.
