CO-OPERATIVE BANKING ,
Its Inception an § Present Extent ,
Workinemon Enabled to Own

Mortgage Lionnn Which Arc Knully
Doston Globe ,
The firit co-oporatlvo bank in Massa-
chuaotta , "Tho Plonopr , " of Boston , waa
organized July 20 , 1877. There are now
twenty-six Bitch banks doing business In
the commonwealth , with oisota amountIng -
Ing lo § 1,971,023 20 , at the date of the
bank coinmleeioncr's last report , an in-
croaao of ? DOOG00.77 during the previ
ous yoar. The .agitation which resulted
In the establishment of these banks wai
bognn about 1870 or 1871 by lion. Joilah
Qalncy , whnau aim wad to make homca
for working ptoplo which they should bo
enabled to own. Ho firat proposed to
make a union upon the Gorman system ,
whereby each member ihould bccomo re-
oponslblo fer all the others , Actiog un
der thla plan n party of twenty-aovon
Germane was then formed and located In
Dcdhain. A farm waa bought and divld
ed up Into building lota and some build
ings oroctcd thereon , but the plan did
not moot the expectations and WHS in n
largo do rco a failure. It , however ,
gave eomo experience which served as a
foundation for future operations , and
pointed ont some defects In a plan which ,
although qulto successful In Germany ,
would not work hero.
In the meantime Mr. Qulncy and
others had been studying the Philadel
phia plan , and in 1875 they applied for
the pastago of a bill , but were defeated
by a very largo majority. Tho' next leg
islature voted down a similar bill by only
two or three votes. In the winter of
1877 Mr. Qalncy Invited the co-operation
of some young men who had already become -
come Interested through other Influences ,
among thorn , D. Eldredgo , Samuel K.
Head , H. T. Elder and 9. Wlllord Oar-
tor. That winter the bill was obtained ,
permitting the formation of "co-operat
ing saving fund and loan associations"
and regulating their business. This name
has since boon almpliGod by the use of
the term "co-operative banks , " and the
original bill has been improved and per
fected in various features by successive
legislatures. The prcaont system la
practically the Philadelphia system.
THE FIRST BANK
woo named the "Pioneer , " and of thin
Joalah Qulucy waa president from the
date of Ita formation , July 20 , 1877 ,
to the tlmo of his death. Mr.
Eldrodgo was made secretary ,
who ia the chief executive officer , or
tlio moat actlvo ono. At that time Mr.
Eldrodgo was a book-keeper for Parker ,
White & Co. , chair mimufaeturoiB on
North street , and for a while all the do-
poalts were made thero. The businesj
increased to euch an extent , however ,
that Mr. Eldrodgo was obliged to leave
his other business in order to devote his
entire time to the bank. Rooms were
taken at 30 Oornhill , where- the bank re
mained for two yoara , when it moved to
the Wells Memorial building , and be
came its first occupant , moving in before
the carpenters were out. This was
largely through the efforts of Robert
Treat Paine , jr. , who deemed it desirable
to have cj-oporativo backs bore , and
oil'ered to lit rooms up for tholr accommo
dation with no additional expense for
rout , etc. Ho also offered Mr. Eldredgo
the auperintondency of the institute ,
which was accepted aa soon aa It waa de
termined to move the banks to the build' '
Ing.In
In the meantime the "Homestead" Co <
operative Bank was started in September ,
1877 , by the same people who had organ
ized the Pioneer , and who had strong
special reasons { or this step. Subse
quently the "Workingmen's" Co-opora
tlvo bank was started In Juno , 1880 , and
was largely composed of members of the
Wells Memorial Workingmon'a institute.
All three of these inatitutlona are located
in the same office , and Mr. Eldredgo Is
aecrotary of each. The combination
makes a great saving in rent , salaries ,
printing and all Incidentalc , and has acrm
peculiarly beneficial results , although the
basinc3B of each ia separate from that of
the others. The thrao iiutitutions now
have about 2,000 members , holding in
all 13,000 shares , and over § 400,000 of
capital has now accumu'atcd , thera being
an income laat year of some 867,000.
The shares are issued in series , and each
is entitled to a total accumulation of
$200 , cud in the case of these tnroo banks
the capital of each la limited to 51,000-
000. All of the twonty-alx banks in the
slata are organized and managed upon
substantially the aamo basis. The plan
of operation is something ai follows :
THE INVENTEIl , OH NON BOUIlOWEli.
Any person desiring to purchase shares
as au investment may do so , uot exceed
ing twenty-Two shares In any ono corpor
ation. The ptico per share Is SI par
month. If ho talcoa five shares , ho pays
§ 5 per month. The payments continue
until the shares nro each worth $200.
They orj then called "matured shares , "
enld reached their "ul
or it ia they have
timate valuo. " Before the issue of a now
series , the accounts are to ba made up
and the profits credited to the several
shares. These crodlta help "mature"
the shares. At maturity each share
holder ia entitled to receive § 200 In cash
for each of the matured shares hold by
him. It Is plain that if no profits were
added It wonld require 200 months ( sixteen -
teen and two-thirds years ) to pay np a
share ; but the profits generally reduce
the tlmo to ton years , and this makes a
vary good Investment. In case the share
holder neglects to pay his $1 per month
share , ho la subject to a monthly fine of
two cents per share. For instance , one
has five shares and ho omits to pay the
duos when duo ; at next meeting follow
ing tbo default ho will bo required to pay
TUB
Any shareholder may borrow § 200 up
on each of his shares if ho can furnish the
security required by hw. Security may
)0 by mortgage on real estate or upon
.ho shares themselves. If ono borrows
ipon a mortgage ho transferea his shares
o the corporation as additional or colla
eral security , Ono It entitled to borrow
upon his shares , provided that the sum
desired is not mora than is parmltted by
he by-laws. The process for borrowing
s this : When the president or other
authorized person announces that there
a a certain amount of money on band
and for sale and invites bids for It ( not
exceeding $2,000 on one bid ) , the bor-
ewer bids a premium which ho by so do *
ng offers to pay monthly for the privil
ege of borrowing the money. The prem *
urn la a bonus and goes to the general
undaod , the borrower receives back his
iroportlonato part of it , The bids are to bo
n turns dlviiible by five : that Is to say ,
he bids must be five , ten , fifteen cents
and 10 on per shtra per month , The
premiums are over and ADOTO the G po
cent rate , which i charged for the ns
of the money. If ono bids twonty-fiv
coats per share It will of Ittolf equal 1
per cent Interest , and this added to G po
cent equals 7 per cent ; ao that , If on
bids twonty-Hvo cents per share ho Is re
ally offering to borrow the money at 7
per cent interest.
To Illustrate : Ono wishes to borrow
$1,000. This requires five shares , whlc
ho may already hold or can , after auo
cossfully bidding lor thn money procnr
from the secretary. If the money I
"kncokod ott" at twcnty-fivo cents pe
share , the borrower then pays as follows
$0 for monthly duos ( this ho Is to pay
whether ho borrows or not ) $5 fo
monthly Interest at G per cent , and $1 2
for monthly premium ( being at twenty
five cents per share on five shares , ) the
total monthly payment being $11,25 01
a $1,000 loan , with premium a
twenty-five cent ] per share
On $2,000 It wonld bo $22 CO
nor month if the premium were the simo
This payment Is continued withou
diminution until the shares mature , when
it is plain that they offset the mortgage
being woith $1,000 in cash. At that time
the payments ceaao , the mortgage is dis
charged by the corporation , and the shares
cancelled. The fines for a borrower are
the same as for non-borrowers , ho bolng
subject ton fine of two cents per montl
on every dollar In arrears for Interest
premium or dues.
A person may bo an investor and no
borrow , but a borrower must bo an in
vestor also. When an investor become
a borrower tlio Investment at once becomes
comes a sinking fund to pay off the loan
when the shares shall have arrived a
maturity.
The banks lend only on first mortgages
and largely to working people , as i
shown by the fact that the avcrag
amount of loans by the three Boston
banks Is $1,300 , and of all these in th
state about $1,100. The minimum loai
is $20 , and the maximum to ono person
$5,000. In many cases the banks loat
money to enable the borrower to build
advancing money a < i the work progresses
BENEFITS ALUEADY DERIVED.
In the whole eight years cf the hlstor
of these banks only ono loss has been
sustained on loans , and the only cfleet o
this loss was to reduce the earnings for o
particular six months from 7 to 5 per
cont. The whole number of loans by
the banks throughout the atato Is 1,000
The largest salary paid by any bank to
any official is § 800 , and the smallest § 25
per year.
The Influence has boon to make men
eave who never thought of saving before
and as their savings begin to accumulate ,
they begin the contemplation of "owning
their own homo , " and with this end it
view they a udy and embrace habits c
economy and thrift , which perhaps wonlc
never have been thought of but for the
banks. The earnings are rather moro
than in the savings banks , while the safe
guards are very nearly perfect.
In Arlington there has grown up a vil
lage of aomo twenty or more attractive
houses in a beautiful spot -where wa1
only a faun and farm-honsea before , nl
built through the' Influence of thcso
banks , and occupied by the builders , who
were shareholders. These banks are
enabled to lean nearer the market value
of the property , bocaueo the borrower begins
gins to pay off his loan at once , and thus
the risk of shrinkage In ralno is avoidet
by the lender. Besides , the borrower
may pay off the whole of his indebted
ness at any time. The president of ono
of the banks ttms sots forth the advant
ages to the borrower and the lender un
der this system :
A I-UBSIDENT'S OPINION.
"Tho transcoudont advantage of these
associations Is that the borrower not only
may , but must , pay off his loan steadily ,
though slowly. Here is the grand dis
tinction : Borrow of a savings bank and
yon cannot pay your loan till
it matures. You make no pre
paration. Yon expect to renew
it. If all gees well you can , nnd do ,
renew , and no it gcca on till something
happens , and yon cannot renew and can
not pay , and they enter and foreclose
and you lese yr.ur house and homo and
all you have paid , and nro broken down
nnd crushed. What blow is mora over
whelming than to bo turned out of the
tiou'so yon have partly paid for with some
hundreds of hardly-uarnod dollars ; and
to lese your all ? Not so with those as
sociatlons. You must pay off a part each
and every month ; a small part , to bo
sure. Before you borrow be sura yon are
right ; only bo row what yon know you
can repay by monthly duo ? . And then
, -ou must go on until all is paid and the
louse is joura. Whoever borrows
Jl,000 to-night on five hharcs must pay
; 5 ( § 1 a share ) hero on this table to
night , and so each month must p y $5 of
.ho principal of his debt till all is paid.
Df course ho also payj the Interest
lach month , which , at 0 per cent ,
a § 5 raoro ( I. o. , $ GO a year ) . If
10 bids a premium of 40 cents a share ho
must alsa pay $2 on his five shares. Now
oo. Suppose ho bids and t ots hlu $1,000
oan at 40 eonts pramium. Ho payseach

This gooj on till his five shares are
worth each § 200 , when his shares are
; qnal to his mortgage and pay It off ; and
its shares and his mortgage are all cau-
elled and ho owns bis homo free from

Jut this man and his wife , and his chil

ANOTHER tTONDim.
Discovery of n Kom rknblo Hole In
the Uftrtti in Arlzonn ,
Tuscon Citizen ,
In some sections of the northern portion
tion of Arizona the question of water
supply , even for domestic purposes , is a
very serious ono. This is particularly
the case at Ash Fork , a station on the
Atlantic and Pacific railroad. A serious
of very lovely and fertile vallaya sur
round the place , and plenty of grass
grows for the support of largo herds of
cattle , but no water cm bo had except
from an occasional "tank" during the
winter season. At Ash Fork the rail
road company attempted to sink an arto-
alan well , but after reaching a depth of
000 fcot the drill became fastened nnd
could not bo removed. Many futile at
tempts were made to extract it , but at
hat It was abandoned in dispair. All
water now nscd at that station and by
the residents of the town is brought by
rail from Poach Springs , sixty five miles
to the westward , and is sold at 50 cents
per barrel.
A short time ago a prospector , stlmu
hted by the inquiry for water , roportoi
that ho had discovered a huge well abou
eight miles from Ash Fork , sunk In
level plain. Fatties nt once ropalroi
thither , with ropes and other paraphall
to oxplora the wondurons discovery
They found the locality , but to this day
the do not know the exact nature of th
curlonn cavern that mot their gazo. It i
located on a Ipvol plain and cannot b
seen nntil It is approached very near
There is no ovldonco of earth or roc
having been removed from the pit , whlc !
was found to bo ICO foetln diameter ant
320 fcot deep , with perpendicular walls
No ono in the party was bravo enough t
docond and explore the "well , " when th
rope bad been lowered , and the oxplor
crs returned to Ash Fork scarcely nice
than they were bofora their trip. It 1
certainly a great curiosity , and there p3s
sibly exists a supply of water coraowher
In its depths or In the numerous cavern
or tunnels that apparently immerge int
the dark earth below from this curlon
threshold of sunlight.
"That Miss Jones la a nice looking gir
isn't she ? "
'Yes and sho'd bo the belle of th
town if itwasn't for ono thing. "
"What's that ? "
"Sho has catarrh so bad it Is unpleas
ant to bo near her She has tried a dcz
on things and nothing helps hor. I am
sorry , for I like her , but that doesn'
make It any less dieagrcoablo for any ono
to bo around her. "
Now if she had used Dr. Sago's catarrl
Remedy there would have been nothinj
of the kind said , for it will cure catarrl
every time.
Train Talk.
Chicago Herald ,
Two railroad men were talking ovci
old times. Inquiry was mido as to wha' '
had beoomo of an old freight brakoinaa
earned Jack Taylor.
"Didn't yo over hear about Jack ? No
1 thought everybody know what ho
como to. Poor old Jack he'll never
twist another brake or swing anothci
lamp. "
"Dead1 ?
"No , but ho might as well be. You
ooe , Jack got the number cr ? .e. Ho RO
'em bad , too , and "
"Tho what ? "
"Tho number craze. Yon don't know
what that is ? You eastern railroaders
don't seem to know much of anything.
Well , Jack got "em , his being the third
case I over heard of. Seven or cl
years ago they took holt of Jack , and
they kept growin' worse. In 1879 ]
b'llove it was , ho first started out to find
the number of the yoar. 'Long about
the middle of the summer ho found it.
Then ho woo happy. But Now Year's
day ho started hunting for 1880. He
looked all summer and all fall. Finally
cold weather came , and would you be
lieve It ? Jack would sit out on the top
of the car in the froezingest weather
looking for a car numbered 1880. Whenever -
over wo pass a side track ho'd look at the
cars like a wild man. Ho got so crazy
over it that ho mighty near lost his job.
jhriatmaa day ho found his car , but New
Year's day ho started looking for 1881.
You see , ho got to believing that if ho
didn't find a car numbered same
ai the year bcfnre the year
waa ont ho wo.ukl die before
the next Easter. Wo couldn't talk It
out of him. In 1881 ho had good luck ,
and found the number about July. But
n 1382 ho had no luck at all. 'Long the
aat of the year ho hunted day and night ,
instead of going to bed ha would take his
anteru and go up and down the tracks in
ho yards looking at the numbers on the
car. ; . After Christmas ho got frantic ,
and wo saved him only by taking an old
3ur and painting the number over for h'm
on tlio sly , then steering him around that
< T y to look at it. This narrow escape
tightened him so that early in 1883 lie
was as crazy as ho usually was in .N ovem-
> er. Ho got BO ho was of no use on a
rain and ho was fired. Then ho spent
11 of his tlmo going up and down the
ards. Ho Imagined wo boys were keep-
ng the car ha wanted away from him ,
nd EO ho went over to the other roads
vhero they didn't know him. When the
S'ow Year's bolls rang ont at the end of
883 Jack was running up aud down the
racks like a maniac. Ho Is now In the
sylum harmless , but clean cone. Ho
idn't find a car numbered 1883. "
A pretty young mama , with a little girl
y her side nearly as pretty as herself ,
vas bolng entertained by a male stranger ,
rho had struck np an acquaintance
brough the usual and always convenient
nedinmshlp of the little girl. The
tranger did all the talking. He was ono
f these mon who think they know bvery-

Two young mon In the smoking eir
iroro talking of making money , They
lad a scheme a fine , sure , big scheme
nit no capital. They had a wealthy rel-
tivo , however , and were discussing
rays and means of getting him to go in
ivlth them.
"We'll aeo him , " said ono , "and we'll
trlke him hard. We'll aek him to put
n all the money , too. There's no uao of
Bothering with a small turn. I romem-

ou strike , strike high If you lose yonr
hatchet. ' We'll appeal to his generosity
We'll try to touch his heart. "
"No , no , " said the other , "jon don1
know the old man as well as I do. Don'
strike him ao high or you'll lose you
hatchet , sure. If you want to do any
thing with him you'll have to atrlko lower
or down. Don't appeal to his ganoroslt
never mind his heart. Try and intoi
est him in the region of his pockotbook.

After seeing all these things wo fol
our pocket-books , and ou taking an In
vontfiry wo found our Mexican dollar
were rapidly evaporating. Wo therefor
concluded to visit the national pawn
broking establishment. Wo did no
have much to pawn but wo wont there
anyhow. This is ono of the most remarkable
markablo institutions in Mexico , and 1
well worthy of a visit. It is situated ou
Empedradlllo etrcct , almost opposlto th
famous Aztec calendar in the wall of ono
of the cathedral towers This Is ono o
the oldest edifices in the city , havlnj ,
boon originally built as a private reel
deuce for Cortcz , shortly after the con
quest. It retains a great deal of it
primitive ttylo , and the modciu touris
has much to ndmlro in its quaint oh
doors , windows , staircases , collicgs ct ?
Ita founder was Count do llcjla
Don Pedro Tcrreros. who , in 1744
endowed the institution will
$300,000 out of his private for
ttiuo. His object was phllanthioplo in
every respect , being to relieve the pee
and thoao whoso dlllicult circumstance
compelled them to have recourse to usury
Money is loaned on very liberal termp
according to the rules and regulations o
the establishment , the rite of intoree
never being lower than 3 or higher thai

many curious articles stowed away in th
picture , candelabrA , silver-plate , time
piece and miscellaneous rooms , and th
grand vault of the bank connected will
the pawning establishment usually con
tains from § 5,000,000 to $10,000,000 li
solid silver and gold. The jewelry department
partmont contains ono of tbo richest ant
rarest collections in the world. Pearls
rubles , emeralds and diamonds in grca
numbers dazzle the visitor's sight. Man ;
of these jewels are merely placed hero fo
safety , others for the consideration o
money. Some are handed clown from
the date of the conquest , andbcaldo thol
intrinsic value , ore of great Interest to th
antiquarian.

Sulphur For Stock.
A. B. Allen.
Sulphur la a good tonic , and althougl
my horses and cattle are well fed am
kept in fine condition , I give each ono a
heaping teaspoonfnl of sulphur once a
week as long as kept In stable on drj
food. When In pasture they don't neo <
if. If thla la done Wednesday evening
then I fiivo the eamo quantity of pure
wood athes in their meal mess evrj
Saturday evening. I also give the oamo
to my poultry. A tablcspoonful is wol
mixed in a gallon of water , and the moa
then stirred up evenly in it. This opcr
ates as a proventlvo of lice. When
wanted to kill lice on cattle a heaping
teaspoonful is well mixed with abou
four quarts of bran , shorts , corn or any
other meal.
It may bo fed every day provided i
does not scour the cattle , and If no thci
not so often. The effect of the s ulphur
must bo watched. If the lice and their
nits are abundant , as the sulphur acts
slowly , it will | b8 better to take crude
petroleum , dip a horse brush in It , and
then brush the hair very lightly until the
oil touches the akin. If no crude petrol
enm is at hand , then take kerosene , and
mix it half and half withmelttd lardand
brush that in. The lard is uoceseary to
reduce the strength of the kornscnc , for
if applied pure it would bo too strong for
; he cattlo. Some mix sulphur with lard
to apply for lice , but this is apt to make
little sores on the skin , especially In cold
weather. If cattle are kept In good
flesh , lice rarely attack them ; if they got
on calves they retard tholr growth badly
and otherwise injure them.
