PUSHED GOOD IDEA THROUGH
Bright Youngster Saw Opportunity,
and Seized 1t, Though 1t Was Not
Very Large Thing.

Going over the court records at the
registry office TO check up our GUS

two days of my time every month, 4"
complained the cashier of a small
city bank to the president It's a lot
of trouble, and yet 1t has to be
done"
The president had no suggestion to
offer, but the remark reached the
ears of young man transacting bust
ness at one of the wickets and set
him thinking
There must be a good many other
business concerns that need Just the
same information he argued with
himself. IF one were to get up a
subscription list of them, 1t might be
worth while to furnish daily reports
from the registry office, reports that
could be got out in an hour or so a
day."
The young man went to the busy
cashier and explained his idea Each
day ! will prepare a list of all mort
cages filed with the clerk of the court
for record, showing names, amounts
and property involved. A list of sat
isfactions of mortgage will also be in
cluded. The charge will be one dol
lar a month That isn't much for the
time it will save you"
The cashier jumped at the offer. and
within very short time the enter
prising young man had more than fifty
subscribers. The lists were compiled |
by his sister, who spent an hour or
two day in the registry Office. md |
the returns made a neat addition to
their joint income, for the young man
did not find it necessary to give up !
his old position, which was an excel
lent one, to take up his new job.

The slaughter Of Chicago people by

attention and causing q great deal Of
comment.
An uprising that will crystallise in

number Of deaths in automobile acct.

100 per cent greater than for the cor.
responding I'VE months last year. The
coroner declared that he can recall
only one case whore any one has
been convicted In connection with an
automobile killing.
He was moved to his sensational
prediction when he reached his once
one day last week and learned Of the
death that day Of Harry Smith, q
Union painter.
This appears to be q particularly
Rad case" said the coroner. From
what I learn Smith was run down and
killed by an automobile at South
State and 18th streets. The chauf.
feur and his passengers abandoned
their machine and escaped on foot.
II the facts are 40 reported will In
s-ruct my assistants to do everything
possible to bring about the conviction
Of the driver. Unfortunately the laws
Of Illinois are such that convictions
are rare and hard to get. Unless &C.
ton IL taken to stop this slaughter

The people will exercise their power
before long"
Mr.. Hoffman gave orders that q per
sonal report be made to him Of every
case where q person 10 killed by ar
automobile. His deputies were In
structed to get him out Of bed al
night in order that he might assume
personal charge OF the cases.
