slightly forward in his chair. "You

M possible. According to popular

Mr.. Hestor paused. The stern old

content to wait.

II do not concede that" interrupted
Mr.. Morton. "That, however, has
nothing to do with your proposition

There is no industry in the coun
try offering so great an opportunity
for trust management as that of the
newspaper press" said Mr.. Hestor
with earnestness. at is true that we
have the Associated Press service
which is a cooperative affair, but
this, while an invulnerable adjunct
is really a small item in the total ex
pense of a great paper. 1t simply
does on a small scale what can and
should be done on large scale"
"You would have syndicate OF pa

81 would have a syndicate which
would own two papers in all cities

Mr. Morton nodded his head and
growled consent to this injunction
which he evidently regarded as un
necessary.

NEW SCHEME TO DRAW A CROWD
When the portly man, coming out Of
a Sixth avenue department store, ran
down a little man who was trying to
enter, there was an explosion, says the
New York Tribune.
why don't you look where you're
going?" cried the little man, apparent
ly indignant.
"Get out Of the way, you little runt,"
said the big fellow. "Do you think I
want you running your head into me?"
"You are no gentleman!" cried the
little fellow. "You elephant you!"
"You miserable puppy. I just wish
you were half my size; I'd.
And then a woman screamed, which
increased the gathering crowd. There
was another volley Of invective. The
crowd blocked the sidewalk to the
curb.
There's going to be an awful fight"
declared a woman.
There's not" said man who stood
near her.
The two principals were edging to-
ward the curb, and finally got there,
From under the coat of the little man
came a case of cheap jewelry. The
other man produced a bundle Of foun-
tain pens. In a minute they were
crying their wares. 1t was just new
scheme to draw a crowd.

WILLIE'S FINANCIAL LESSON.

Bank Suspended Payment, But Re-
sumed After Negotiations.
He is a wise lad, though not very
old.
One day his father, wishing to in
culcate some financial lessons, bought
him toy savings bank.
Nov, Willie" he said. well start
a bank"
II choose to be cashier" the boy
answered promptly.
"All right" his father replied, al
ready proud of the boys knowledge;
"you may be cashier and I'll be the
president. Then you and your mother
and your two sisters and I will be de-
positors. I'll put five new nickles in
to start with. What will you do?"
It'll put in my seven pennies and
a 2-cent piece" said the boy.
His mother dropped in two dimes,
and each Of his sisters nickel, and
the bank was started.
During the next few weeks numer-
GUS deposits were made and all ran
smoothly. Then one day the father
found himself short Of change and alb
stracted a dime from the bank for
carfare. The cashier, however, had a
great idea Of the responsibilities Of his
position, and he detected the shortage
within an hour and took what was
left.
The next morning the president un-
dertook to give the cashier another
lesson in flnanciering.
Suppose one Of the depositors wish
ed to draw out some money, Willie" ,"
he said, what would you do?"
For answer the boy simply pointed
to the bank, on which this sign was
displayed:
PAYMENT SUSPENDED.
why, Willie, what does this mean?"
inquired the president.
1.-The president" replied the boy,
began drawing out money on the sly,
so the cashier skipped with the rest"
You don't mean to say that you
have taken all the money that was In
there, do you?" demanded the presi-
dent.
Sure" answered the cashier. you
didn't ever hear Of a cashier letting
any other officer of a bank get ahead
Of him, did you? Well, I guess not.
He's the fellow that knows what's go
ing on, and when the other officers
begin fooling with the funds he just
cleans out the bank every time. That
Is where he has the best Of it.
MY boy" said the president, admir-
ingly. "some day you may be great
financier; but first you have a few
things to learn. Never wait for the
depositors to prosecute when you
clean out bank. Now come with me
to the woodshed."
But the cashier protested.
IF there's no prosecution" he urged
land the president will agree not to
tamper with the cash. I'll see that
the bank resumes payment"
1t was compromise on that basis.
