the growth Of the groups that range

of those who earn only $500 to $500 an
nually. The proportion OF men now

Fools Himself.
philadelphia Post,

Strangers in New York always notice
and comment on the Childlike curiosity
OF the crowds on Broadway. New Y Ork-
ers will stop and look at anything. from
the hosting of a safe to the uplifting OF
a fallen horse. and they chase fire en-
gines like boys.
An incident of this sort is related by
one Of the older bankers. When Rufus
Hatch was in his prime there was a little
restaurant down town where the men of
finance took luncheon. Hatch went in
one day and found every table occupied.
He was in a hurry. There seemed to be
no chance. SO he said to the man in
charge loud enough to be heard all over
the small room: Terrible accident down
a the Battery
''What?" asked the manager.
"Full-rigged shin has just gone down in
the channel, with a lot of people on
board"
There was an immediate rush for the
door. Tables were deserted. and the men
who were eating ran pell-meu down
Broadway. Hatch sat down and ate a
quiet luncheon Then he paid his check
and went out. The street was fun OF
people running toward the Battery.
What's the matter2'' asked Hatch.
ship gone down with lot of people
on bOardH' gasped the runner.
"Graciousi" shouted Hatch. 'Is that
so? 7 must see that" And he, too. ran
down the street. .hOaxed BY his own hoax.
