Keeping up to Date.

Heaven save me from women depositors," said the bank cash fer, glancing cautiously around to see that none of his women customers were in hearing dist ance.
 ''This morning there was a woman came over from the cage of the paying teller in a tower ing rage to complain to me.
 See here,' she said, Eve had an account here for more than a year and now that horrid man refuses to cash me a check.
 "What's the matter 2 I asked.
 "I don't know she said. He said something about it not be- ing my signature
 T went over with her to talk to the paying teller.
 "Why, MT. Bradly,' it's like thls. I don't know this woman by sight. She has just present. ed a check the signature on which is not at all like the sig nature I have in my book. You ask her to let you see the check I refused and I'll show you.
 q got the check from her and compared it with the signature in the book. They did not re- sem ble in the least. Tbat in the book was written in a small back hand. That on the check was a large flashing and pointed style. I called the woman'S attention to the difference.
 "Oh, for goodness sake,' she broke out, I supposed every body knew that the little back hand writing wasn't fashion able any more. Everybody is using the long, pointed writing now. Do you expect nae to keep a full year behind the times just to satisfy that particular paying teller? Huh. It's queer you wouldn't employ somebody who keeps up to date in such mat ters.

The old gentleman in his heart did not object to the young man as a son-in law. but he was one of that kind of old gentlemen who like to raise objections first and then reach an agreement as though conferring a favor. When the young man called he was ready for him.
 ''So," he interrupted fercely, almost before the suitor could commence, "you want me to let you marry my daughter, do you:"
 The young man very coolly responded; 'I didn't say so, did I?'
 The old gentleman gasped:
 ''But you were going to say so?"
 "Who told you I was:" in- quired the applicant, seeing his advantage.
 "But you want me to let you marry her, don't you?" "No."
 E "No!" exclaimed the old gen. tleman, almost falling off the chair
 .s%That's what I said."
 ."Then what the mischief do you want?"
 ''I want you to give your con- sent, replied the youth, pleas antly. "I'm going to marry her anyhow, but we thought your consent wouldn't be a bad thing to have as start, though it won't make the slightest differ ence about the marriage"
 It took the old gentleman a minute to realize the situation. When he did heput out his hand.
 "Shake hands, my boy" said he. ''I've been looking for 0 son-in- law with some pluck about him, and I'm sure you'll do frSt- class"- "-Chicago Journal.

A NewSboy's Geology.

The life of the late Henry w. Oliver, the Pittsburg capitalist, took a profound interestin in child ren of the poor. Hence his gift to Pittsburg of d magnificent public bath, and hence his ire. quent and friendly converse tions with newsboys, bootblacks and messenger boys.
 It is said of Mir. Oliver that one day, after buying a paper from a very little chap, he thought he would test the lads intelligence by putting a few questions to him.. Accordingly he pointed to a pile. of paving stones and said:
 "How were these stones made, son?"
 ''They wasn't made. They growed," replied the boy.
 Growed? ? How do you mean 'growed?" said MT Oliver.
 They growed the same as po- tatoes grow" the boy explained.
 MT Oliver shook his head. "No, my lad you are wrong" he said. ."Stones can't grow. If you were to come back to these stones five years, or ten years, or twenty years from now, they would still be the same size"
 "Of course," said the little newsboy, sneeringly. They've been taken out O the ground now, and have stopped growin' same as potatoes would.

PRESSING UP SPEED LIMIT.
Tremendous Increment of Wear and
Tear Resultant Upon In
creased Rate.

It is a question whether the demand
for very fast trains is great enough
to warrant the great cost Of running
them. Even very small gain In
speed ia attended with a tremendous
increment of wear and tear. Train
acceleration, says the Brooklyn Eagle,
Is very much more function OF the
mechanical department than OF the
general passenger agents Office. There
is a limit established by the strength
Of materials and the point reached In
the coordination of parts. To keep as
near this limit as ia practicable is
wise; to go one inch beyond 1t or even
to encroach unduly upon a narrow
margin of safety Is not wise. The
danger Is not so much in the 1S-hour
schedule between New York and Chi
cago as in the temptation It offers to
establish 17-hour run and then 16,
as competition becomes keen and pro-
portionately reckless. Speed is an evo-
luton. Our progress in that direction
has probably been as rapid during re-
cent years as was consistent with
sound principles of railway manage
ment, and leaps forward are apt to be
regarded as showing more enterprise
than discretion on the part Of those
who make them.

KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING
Farmer Passenger Was Not Quite So
Absent-Minded as He APP
peared to Be.

Abner Gaines, Of the Arkansas rail
road commission, " ds taking about
railroad travellers experiences, relates
the Buffalo Enquirer.
II was sitting in certain train
when an old farmer came and sat
down beside me.
1.-THE conductor soon appeared for
the tickets, and the farmer showed
his big, hard hands first into one
pocket and then into another. He
got excited and red. His clothes be-
came mussed and tumbled.
"By jingo,' he said, 4 can't seem
to locate that ticket nowhere
"'Well,' said the conductor, In a
good-natured way, I'll stop around
again later on
"And he went OF with a smile and
O nod.
"In about 20 minutes he returned.
The farmer went through all his pock-
cts again, got red In the face again,
mussed and tumbled his clothes again,
all to no purpose.
Never mind now said the con-
ductor. You've got that ticket, and
you'll find it yet. You're little aus-
tered That's what's the trouble. I'll
come back again after awhile
And at last the conductor returned
for the third time. But he didn't allow
the old mans third rummage to go far.
He gave loud laugh. Why, he said,
there's your ticket. there in your
mouth. You must have had 1t there
all the time
~ guess l must, said the farmer,
sheepishly.
And be took the ticket out of his
mouth, and the conductor punched 1t
and passed on. convulsed with laugh
ter.
1.-The farmer was a hard-headed,
solid-looking old fellow. After awhile
turned to him and said:
"T'm afraid you are losing your
memory, sir
He chuckled and assumed crafty
air.
"'No fear, he said. No fear. The
ticket was a month old, and was
just soaking the date off it,"

MANY CUNNING DEVICES.
Equipment Of New Hospital Railway
Coaches Is Very Complete

cars which have been ordered for the

La Sale street station, in charge Of

cifc. reports the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Outside and inside-as 1t is usually
arranged-the car looks like the pri-
vate car of a railway official. Con-
cealed below the floor of the car, how
ever. is some wonderful mechanism
and a good many other things. A
porter takes carpenters brace, in
serts the end of 1t In small hole in
the floor, turns the brace, and up
comes a section Of a sleeping car, with
one, two or three berths In 1t, as de-
sired.
This brace is applied to another
hole In the floor and up comes an
operating table, with all its aces
series, pans, bandages and everything
except the surgeons knives, saws, for
ceps and other implements of trade,
which are kept in a dust-prof, germ
proof compartment in another part of
the car.
In case of a train wreck and the
injury of lerge number of passengers
the hospital car could be transformed
in less than half an hour from an ele-
CANT private car to a complete hos
pital on wheels, with real beds for
80 passengers and an operating table
on which the necessary surgical aid
could be given to emergency cases.
"The hospital car is specially de-
signed to properly transport persons
seriously injured in wrecks" said an
official of the Hartman lines. ut is
not hospital, but vehicle for TAX

with his decision.
