PASSWORDS AT THE BANKS,

A Secret Sign Given Those Who Can
not Write Their Names.
The banks give secret passwords to
depositors who cannot read or write
When one of these depositors goes to
draw out money the cashier leans for
ward and whispers:
"What's your password?"
The depositor whispers an answer,
and if the correct password is given
the money is paid out.
In bank the other day a negro wo-
man sat upon bench, her face indicat-
ing intense application Of mind. The
cashier nodded toward her and said:
"She's forgotten her password and is
trying to think of it. She came to the
window awhile ago and wanted to get
some money. She only wanted small
amount. But she can't write. She's
one OF quite number of our depositors
who are given passwords when they
open an account. When she came in I
asked her to give her name and ad-
dress. She answered right up What's
your PASSWORD I asked her.
Nm she exclaimed, pursuing her
lips, let me see. Amt dat peculiar?
Hit done escaped nah mind now
Cant you think of it? I said. You
know can't pay the money until you
give me the password?
Lord. honey she exclaimed, Abs
mighty nigh dat money! But All jes
can't member hit now
"Well, sit down and think it over !
suggested to her. 1T may come to
you"
In few minutes the old woman
arose with happy look upon her face
and went up to the cashiers window.
She put her face as far inside the mar
row window as she could and whis-
pered:
abraham Linkun."
Correct answered the cashier. and
he paid her the money she was after.
"Ah jes' couldn't place dat mans
name at first" she said as she went
out.-Kansas City Star.

FIGHTING BULLS.
They Are Easily Managed When
1 They Are Massed Together.

They Are Easily Managed When
They Are Massed Together.
In Spain accidents to bullfghters are
of frequent occurrence, and it is inter
esting to see the hero of many fights
swing into the chapel attached to the
bull ring and kneel before the effigy
of the Virgin Mary before entering the
arena. s.
1 Bullfghting is the national pastime.
Boys play at it in the cutters, and
there are bullfghts for amateurs all
over the country at which only two
year-old bulls are used and young and
old descend into the arena. Astound-
| ing is the enthusiasm,
Interesting too, is the psychology of
! bulls. When herded together they are
docile enough, and it is picturesque
sight to see the bulls brought into the
paddock prior to the fight through the
| streets of the city when all are sleep.
ing. A cow trained to the business,
with bell around her neck, is all that
| Is necessary, and the bulls follow
quietly behind her.
In the plains where the bulls are
reared men on horses manage them
quite easily 50 long as they are massed
together. Three bulls in the ring to-
gether would be useless for fight, but
each bull separately will fight to the
death.
Bulls literally see red. We're 1t not
that a bull will always dash at any
thing red the men in the ring would
have no chance whatever Occasionally
bulls have what is called the evil eve
and remain Indifferent to the red capa
extended to them, and then the list OF
casualties is generally high.
Sometimes a bull which has shown
prodigious power and fight is pardoned
by the populace. A COW, kept for the
purpose, is then sent into the arena
and at sight Of her the bull forgets
man and the fury of the battle. and
generally trots behind to the paddock
as meek as any heifer.
Many are the curiosities about bulls
which sometimes refuse to attack a
particular horse and when a man is
down, motionless, disdain even to paw
him. Some bulls make instinctively fol-
one man and will chase him all around
the ring, leaping the barrier if he
vaults over it, and if he falls will
kneel upon his body and gore him tt
shreds. There is no mercy in bulls, and
none is shown to them.-NineteentE
Century.

MARRIAGE CUSTOMS.
Tho Change From the Era When
Wives Were Taken by Force.

Wives Were Taken by Force.
Marriage customs have changed ev-
erywhere with the advance Of civiliza.
ton. Anglo-Saxons in ancient times, ii
IS said, used to capture their wives by
force from their fathers or their hus-
bands, it did not matter which.
Ihis was before Augustine came to
preach Christianity. Then purchase was
more common than capture, although
the latter seems to have been frequent
enough to the reign Of Ethelbert to
need regulation by law. by this law {;
man might run away with woman,
provided he afterward paid her pre-
V1ous owner, be he father or husband,
5O shillings. If it was husband who
had thus been deprived Of his wife, the
Woman's captor had not only to pay
him the fine, but also to buy him an
other wife. In any case the stolen wo-
man belonged to her captor.
If man had purchased his bride in
the days of Ethelbert and afterward
concluded he had paid too much fol-
her, it was lawful for him to return her
10 her former owner and claim again
the purchase price, provided that he
mad not previously expressed satisfac-
ton by making the bride a present on
the morning after the wedding.
The next step was the "foster lien,''
when the bride price was paid on the
day of espousal and was supposed to
compensate the parent for the cost of
bringing up his daughter It seems
however, that this soon fell into disre
pute, as there was no law against the
rather engaging his daughter to nu
merous suitors, taking from each the
roster lien" and, Of course, cheating
all but one on the wedding day, which
at that time was only the day Of be-
trothal, when the sutton gave "wed'
or pledge for the future performance OF
his contract. If the suitor did not claim
his bride within two years after the
wedding day, he forfeited all right tt
her and to whatever money or goods he
mad paid for her. If the woman and hel
father broke their promises, the fathe,
mad to give the sutton four times as
much as the suitor had already paid
him.
AS civilization advanced the bride
price was given to the woman herself
and became her dowry, while nova
days the tables are frequently turned
and the bride settles the money on he,
husband.
