Boy

In this day of complaint against incompe-
tent servants of all sorts It Is rather remark
able to study the general utility OF the apart
menthouse hallboy. The resourceful New
York woman finds many uses for the liveried
lad and where he has been tested and found
thoroughly reliable he is often trusted with
responsible duties.
At one of the upper West side apartment
hotels two extremely bright young colored
men have been employed for four years and
the commissions with which they are trusted
are worth studying. One Of them was seen at
q neighboring bank the other morning deposit
ing money for three guests at the hotel. Sew
eral other colored boys in uniform were per-
forming similar service. The receiving tel
Ter at the bank explained that many Of his
women depositors intrusted this work, espe-
cially on stormy days, to hall boys and eleva-
tor boys and that there has not been single
case OF dishonesty or Misunderstanding in the
matter.
In some houses elevator and hall boys ara
not permitted to run errands. the New York
World says. In others, where two or three
lads are on duty. rules are relaxed and super
intendents are glad to let the boys serve the
tenants. Naturally :he boys Ike TO do the err

although most OF the men who had a hand in
1t. denied that there was any personal feeling.
Men sat white in their seats or stood and
spoke with shaking voices, SO tremendous was
the excitement. but during 1t all each man
kept firm hold on his temper, and while It
seemed to the spectators that encounters must
come, they never came. and the change In the
rules was effected, involving as It did. an air
ing OF fractional differences with just as little
outward show Of disturbance as would attend
the enactment of legislation of small degree
Of interest.

Elevator and hall boys are also intrusted
with all sorts of repairs, sponging. pressing,
dyeing. etc. You will see them hurrying
toward the uptown shops, their arms laden
with all sorts of wearing apparel. from silk
hats that need ironing to shoes that need half
soling. For such work the boy generally gets
two bits of money. one from the tenant for
performing the errand and another from the
tradesman to whom he throws the work.
