WAS AN INGENIOUS CHAP.

An ingenious chap thought that he
would make some money Tuesday on
the picnic at Delaware Park. He had
some tickets representing Il ride on the
merry go-round. and sold quite num-
Der of them to people on the picnic,
who presented them in payment of a
ride. The man in charge of the merry
go-round took several before he found
out what had been done. but when he
did he refused to take any more, con-
sequently the boy stopped selling them.
An effort will he made to catch the
boy and prosecute him. The company
will have different colored tickets for
each day, so as to prevent n repetition
of Tuesdays work.

On account OF the high rate for

Money rates were higher today than
at any time since it became scarce,
and people began to talk OF possible
stringency. Call money was loaned at
the opening at per cent. Presently
5 per cent was the prevailing rate. and

they are dangerously near the legal

talking about the "suficiency OF
