In addition to the derby favorite,
Crockford was also the owner of the IA
vorite for the Oaks, on which his friends
had staked very large amounts. Their
anxiety at his dangerous seizure was
great, because in the event of his dying
before the race his FLY would be dis
qualified and their expected harvest
would be lost.
AS they feared, the man actually died
on the very morning of the race, and his
friends were in despair. They were de-
termined, however, not to lose their
money in the even of the flly's success,
and to achieve this object they placed
the corpse in a chair at an open window
so that the crowds returning from the
race course could see him.
Mr.. Croclford's FLY came in first, and
the returning crowds, seeing her owner
at the window shouted out the news and
their congratulations to him, little
dreaming that the congratulations fell
on deaf ears. The ruse was successful,
the bets were paid and it was many
years later that the world knew that it
had congratulated dead man.

aggregation as can be found in small

This one was. Boys from many sta

boy. y nickel or copper was the
usual contribution from the ma iority,
but Jimmy always doomed up with dis
tinction about that time, for he never
failed to drop in at least dime.
But there was one poor little fellow
who always used to shrink up in his
clothes when the plate was passed
around, as though trying to hide his
embarrassment. The other boys no.
ticed it, of course, but no one said any
thing until Jimmy's establishment
overcame him one day, and, pointing
to him he blurted out: He doesn't put

The little fellow shrank further into
the corner. \ tear was in his eve, for
he had been toying with the plate and
had seen the dime that Jimmy had
dropped.

he had kept for many, many months,
