The Eccentric Deposition.

II. A. Fuller, POSTMASTER at the
annual banquet of the Pennsylvania
bankers convention in Wilkesbarre
last month, introduced with this story
the banker who responded to the
toast, "Our Depositors."
"a depositor in neighboring trust
company is an eccentric farmer of
middle age. This farmer, though he is
wealthy, overdrew his account one
day to the tune of $500.
Notification of the overdraft was
at once sent to him.
"He replied:
"'You tell me have overdrawn my
account $500. Well, / know 1t. So
what is the necessity of bothering me
about 1t? Why not trust me as | do
you? Do I go to you when | have
money in your institution and shout:
you have $500 of mine?" Such state.

AS he spoke the last words he made
little movement towards the corri-
dor with his hand, at the same
moment elevating his voice. The
Princess caught his meaning and, be-
fore either of her companions could
stop her, she tiptoed to the door, set
her hand softly to the latch, and sud-
denly flung 1t open. Prince Louis
stood without, with head bowed to
listen.
M The Princess shrilled into little
peal of laughter.

Quick as thought he threw himself
upon a couch, and drew about him

silk. The footsteps stopped at his

said to resemble the boss strike-bTeaker
very closely is Carl Bartsaed, resident
of New York.
Another disturbance took place when
two big floats carrying about 200 strike
breakers each left pier 5 for the Brook
Iyn docks. As they passed the piers
about twenty-five strikers collected and
sent a shower of brickbats and other
missiles after the striko-breakers.
The heads of the transatlantic steam
ship companies involved in the strike
decided yesterday that they would not
pay the wages demanded by the strikers
and they will fight the strike TO flush
first. The demands are considered un-
reasonable.
One man was seriously injured In q
