MISCELI.AN EOl'S
Playing a Racket.
Among the personal effects of a yonng
man arrested for drunkenness the other
day was a bank check for $3,000. It was
plain enough to the officer that the paper
was N". G., and when the young man so
bered np ho was accused of being in a con
fidence racket.
•'Oh, come now," he replied, "I am
straight and all righL That was a little
racket oa my own a&ount."
"Howl"
•'Why, I'm going with a girl who lovee
me for myself alone, but lier mother."
"And you filled out this check to de
ceive herf"
"That's what I did. I showed her that
I had $3,000 in the bank, but what did she
do but post right down there to find out
that I didn't have a hairpin on deposit."
"And what."
"Why, that's how I came to get drunk.
She showed me the door and I iouud the
gate myself. T knew from the way she
whistled for the Jog that the syndicate
was busted, aDd so I went to ruin at the
nearest saloon."
ThereV not a joy the earth can give.
