 He built the fastest boat in the trade the Silver Heels, and was her captain as long as she carried the horns for the best time between St. Louis and St. Joseph. HaTing built the fastest craft he built

 But she made more money for her owners than all the rapid packets in the trade. Rather an anomaly, Is 1t not. in view of this electric age that there was 2 time when the slowest craft made the most moneyT'

BIRDS AMUsE THEMSELVES.
They Have Their Games, Sports and
 Diversions.


 Olive Thnrne Miller in Philadelphia Some modern writers would have us be- lieve that the life of bird is the life of constant fear; that not only IS It all work and no play, but that il IS passed in deadly terror To bird lover this idea Is intoierable. and, if accepted, would take away all pleasure in making thelr acquaintance, But happily. this vlew IS not confirmed by facts. one who mas time. patience and ability to watch birds sees enough to convince him that, al- though always alert, quick to perceave danger and instantly to avoid 1t. Dirds do not pass their lives in dread and fear. On the contrary there is plenty Of evil dence to show that our feathered breth- ren have sports into which they enter witD the enthusiasm of youth;
 There can be no douDt that the plru plays because he feels well, or is in a healthy and cheerful condition; but there is another way to consider 1t. The Vari ous exercises of play have tmporxant ed- ucatIonal value, in the same way that athletic sports have for the human youth They train the body for the serious du- ties of adult life. Mir. Gross who has made a study of the subject. goes so far as to suggest that the reason animals anu men are born helpieSs. with everything to learn is for the purpose of giving tlris training; or, in other words, period of youth and playfulness is d necessary preparation for life. This gives bioiog- ieul inpOrtance to play, ana makes the study of it most interesting.
 We find. on closer acquaIntance with their ways, that birds are extremely frolicsome Not only when young and naturally frisky. as are all creatures fresh to this world of ours but after they have reached their full development Like us. they have their social festivities their concerts and dances. sometimes on the ground and so netimes in the air, for the1 have the advantage of us in the command of the two elements.

SHORT STORIES FROM
THE SMALL AID. PAGE
How q Promoter Closed $4,000, 900
Real Estate Deal Over Night.

The promoters of large enterprises
are usually reluctant to discuss the
methods adopted by them to attain their
ends, and one of the most successful Of
them, in reviewing past experiences the
other day with party OF fDGmates,
positively refused to let his name be
used in connection with a story of the
manner in which a three-Iiner on the
small al. page effected one Of the
largest real estate deals in the history
OF the city The story Is most interest
ing, however. even without his name.
The negotiations had been in progress
for several weeks. and a number of
prominent New Workers had agreed to
advance the necessary money on a GER
tain date. but through a combination OF
circumstances the draft did not arrive
in time, and the Washington man who
was engineering the deal was informed
that other parties were after the prop
eTty, and that if a second payment was
not made by $50 o'clock the following
morning the property would be sold to
other parties.
This word reached the promoter late
in tie afternoon. He knew that there
was practically no possibility of reach
ing the New York people that night
anu Tx HAlUi lii4iE NOLlu DE tBO tchE IA
ne should 90 TO any of the people from
whom be would probably be able 10 Sc
cure the money, it would disclose his
plans and probably interfere with them.
He accordingly hurried to The Times
Office and inserted short notice call
ing for $50. 600 for Immediate use, on the
most approved security.
With in an hour after the paper was
OF the press he called a the Office, but
there were no replies. He repeated his
call several times with the same re
suit. Finally. as he was about giving
up and going home for the night. an
elderly gentleman called out an address
as he handed over the counter a letter
for the like of which the promoter had
been waiting He was stopping at one
of the hotels, where the two repaired
after the advertiser had made himself
known. The plan and the situation were
laid before the man of money, who
proved 10 be one Of the New York men,
who had come down to look over the
ground himself, and when the doors Of
the Office Of the sales agent were opened
the following morning the money was
paid down and the deal was closed
Within the following two years over
81 900 600 was made on the deal by the
syndicate all Of which would have been
lost had il not been for the little ad.
