There was unusual activity in the
money order department of the Hyde
Park post Office on Tuesday, and when
the days work was done. the figures
showed that it was the largest one
days business ever done in the ofiice.
The amount received on issued orders
vas 81 ,lSs-50. ead the fees for TIE
same amounted 70 1910, making !
total of si.204.60: OF this amount
81. l32 was remitted TO the sub-treas-
ury in Boston. For the past year
the money order business has shown
a steady growth, illustrating at once
the confidence of the public in this
system of remittance, as well as the
return of prosperity in all branches
of trade. In remitting small amounts
the money order system is absolutely
safe. the department throwing every
safeguard around this financial meth
cd Of d d,ing business. Where safety
is absolute and the fees 30 small,
there is no excuse for any one send
ing bills loosely in envelopes in anti
cipation Of safe delivery. The in
crease in the money order business ct
the local post Office is most crafty
ing. and we trust all who intend to
make small remittances will avail
themselves Of the system, and which
the department heartily recommends.

Lewis A Cole, one of the genial Con-
.solidated Exchange brokers, recently
made the acquaintance of a bookmaker,
through whom he was put in the way of
gathering a few stray shekels on Kinley
Mack in the handicap.
Mr.. Cole wanted to retaliate in kind,
and invited his track friend to look him
up in Wall street and try a whirI with
the market. The bookmaker turned up
all right, and Co.e was glad, for he had
a good tip on B. R. T.

Cole sold 200 B. R. T., and left his
friend in the office to watch the board
while he Cole went on the floor. The
horseman went over to the board.
Say, boy, which is my horses there?''
Upon calculation, and having been con-
WINGED, but not without difficulty, that his
questioner was not "dotty," the boy point
ed out B. r. T. on the board, quoted at
65. The bookmaker watched it closely for
three minutes, didn't think he was getting
the proper sort of action and wandered
over to the customers window.
Say, are they still at the post?''
The clerk knew something about Coles
newly made friend, and also something
about horses, so he made the first intelli-

STORY OF THE DERBY.
Love for the Jockey Made the
Princes Horse Win.

The story of how the Prince Of Wales
Won the Derby with Diamond Jubilee is
the story Of how a small boy taught a
wicked horse to love him. The wicked
horse is Diamond Jubilee
Diamond Jubilee disgraced himself In
more than one race by throwing a Jockey
and by other Obstrcperous conduct. and
the prince despaired of his future until It
was noticed that the horse behaved bet
ter when ridden by little Herbert Jones.
investigation showed that Jones had in
some mysterious way won the affection
OF the worst tempered colt in England
Diamond Jubilee showed his hatred OF
every person near him, especially his
trainer, but with young Jones I'm the sad
ole he was comparatively dOcie
The result was q triumph i'm the Two
Thousand Guineas. Jones sat still and
Diamond Jubilee romped home I'm the
most amiable fashion. Something oc-
CURED to upset him IN the Newmarket
stakes, and, although Jones quoted him
down, the colt did not show his real
form.
After this exhibition 1t was generally
thought that all the noise and hustle OF
EPSON would thoroughly upset him but
happily for all concerned, he was in his
most amiable humOr on Derby day, and
no horse could possibly have behaved
better.
He did not even resent a certain
amount Of interference In the race, for
first he was bumped by Disguise H., and
then Sloan, who was riding Mr.. Keene' g
colt, took him right across the course,
so that Jones had to steady the favorite
, and lost a length or two.

GRAND TURF SPORT.
The sort of turf sport furnished bv the
washington Park club is of the kind that
draws an average attendance of 10000
10 Io'VVV people "a day and pleases every
body. Turf scandals are avoided by the
sagauous and experienced officials whose
action in asking as prominent an owner
as Barney Schneider to take away his
horses because of the inconsistent run
ming of Fly By Night has given greater
confidence to the public who support the
turf and the horsemen who run their
horses for the purses. 1t strengthened
the hand of every jockey club in the
West and made people wonder why such
officials had not been selected at the early
spring meeting when form reVerSals
caused stencil in the nostrils of honest
turfmen.
WHEN HEARST COMES.
The arrival of w. r. Hearst and the
chicago American has upset the town in
newspaper way and the people who
have beer so used to buying family story
papers are now taking anything that re-
sembles a poster The American was a
godsend to the newsboys who sold thou
sands of the first copies at cents copy
1870 OON-N-
mand. The second day, however, the
price fell to cents and by next week
they will retailed at the bargain counters
for penny-the regulation price.
AS stated last week, Mr.. Hearst found
that his methods had been largely an
ticipated by enterprising papers like the
Daily News. Mr.. Victor F. Lawson had
some bright young men equal to those of
Mr.. Hearst, and when the transcontinen-
tai pubs 4er-goCd ohe 1T that-landed in
Chicago he found a sporting extra"
every bit as good as that in NJ Yourk.
This is the reason why Fred Hayner
and his assistant, Charley Sinsabaugh,
with plenty of funds and reportorial aid
just scooped the new paper to death
with several columns of lively sporting
gossip published in the News on July 4,
and over in the News office they haven't
got over celebrating the victory yet.
Twas a good thing for the other sport
ing editors too, for it taught Mr.. Hearst
and his transcontinental outfit that
Western brains know how to do things
when occasion arises.
At that, however the new paper is
on deck with startling and new methods
which, besides booming sports and things,
give fresh life to the town.
