New Workers Who Waste Money
Through Thoughtlessness.

New Workers Who Waste Money
Through Thoughtlessness.
1.-The Absent-Minded Beggar" has
plenty Of counterparts in New York,
as the Interborough Rapid Transit
Company and the subTeasury officials
have cause to know. Perhaps the COM
monest form such absent mindedness
takes is the dropping Of coins into the
ticket choppers box on IL" stations.
The amount of money thus inadver-
tently thrown away in year, say the
Interborough officials, is tremendous.
aggregating, it is estimated, about $35
week That means an average Of
about 36,4O0 nickels per annum abb
sent-mindedly tossed into the ticket
machine.
The usual method Of procedure is
this: A man hurrying to catch a train
slams down a coin at the ticket win
dow, gathers up his change in one
hastens on in pursuit of the gates
ajar." Forgetting in which hand the
ticket is, he dumps his handful of
change into the chopping machine. A
jerk Of the lever and it vanishes from
view.
By making proper application the
man with the absentee thinking appa-
ratus can, Of course, recover his
money, but he will find it sadly
changed since he last saw it, for the
interior Of the box is fitted up with a
powerful apparatus for mutilating tick
cts. The teeth Of the machine are so
sharp that they readily bite through
nickel or silver coins.
Thus, whenever a large enough heap
of these mutilated coins Is collected an
official Of the company is forced to
make trip to the subtreasury to have
them redeemed. A goodly percentage
of the money is never demanded by
the people who dropped 1t in the box,
the outlay being presumably set down
by them to profit and loss and sub
mitted to as one Of the countless penal
ties attached to the Gotham vice of
-mindedness.-New York World.
