did not satisfy the stockholders Of the
company, and he was allowed to re-

by a suit brought against him by the
new management, the suit being now

Boss Poor; Employe Rich.

John J. McGraw, boss, Is poor
while Christy Mathewson, employe,
Is we'll to do.
Friends of the giant manager say
he isn't worth $4,000. Mathewson
is said to be worth 100000. Nc
Graw is typical New Yorker. He
likes the Broadway restaurants and
Jheaters. Running races interests
him and he plays them. Any betting
proposition strikes McGraw.
Mathewson is careful. He is plain
liver. He lives in a $500 a year fiat
within ten minutes walk of the Polo
grounds. and it's not a pretentious
fat at all.
Mathewson's ambition, when he Is
through with base ball, is to travel
and then invest his money in some
business in which he will have an
active part. He doesn't want to
manage ball team or be connected
with base ball. McGraw's only
thought of the future is a winning
team.

TO BOOST FARM SALES.
Says That the Farmer
Must Not Forget to
Advertise.

The Graettinger Times gives the
following article written by their
home auctioneer in regard to thor
oughly advertising public sales. He
says there Is no one who knows the
value Of advertising any better than
an auctioneer and the results there
of. Experience has taught him that
poorly advertised sales are the hard
est to cry and the results as a rule
are the most unsatisfactory to the
owner. There are no men who can
use advertising more effectively than
the farmers who are holding public
sales. 1t must be also said that
there are few men who lose so much
money through failure to appreciate
the value of advertising and the
necessity of spending money for 1t
as the farmer.
1t is true that sales are advertised
more than they were a few years
ago, but still they are not advertised
as they should be. The average farm
er should advertise his sale to the
extent Of SIS, and there are times
when he should exceed even the
above amount. Yet there are men
who expect to sell several thousand
dollars worth of property and who
think they have advertised literally
when they have stuck up a few Of
their bills. They save few dollars
by so leaving the newspapers out,
but one additional buyer would more
than pay for all the advertising. An
additional bid on their horse of $40,
or the establishing OF a IS higher
average on their COWS would pay for
all the advertising and more. The
average newspaper is read by humid
reds Of prospective buyers whom the
bills might never reach.
That the newspaper Is a most valu-
able medium Of advertising the pub
lie sale will be admitted by anyone
who gives the matter little thought.
The cards and bills are all right and
should by all means be used, but the
territory they reach Is limited. If no
advertising was done at all, not even
the nearest neighbors should know
that you were going to have a sale.
But it is the newspaper that real
ly gives the most valuable advertis-
ing. The farmer thinks nothing of
driving Is or 20 miles to attend a
sale If in reading over a list of stock
offered he sees some horses or cattle
which he thinks would suit him, and
1t is these farmers who live several
miles away from the sale who would
not learn OF the bills, but must de-
pend upon the newspapers for infor-
nation concerning It. He sits In his
home and reads in the paper the
description OF the property that
some one at considerable distance
is offering for sale, and makes up
his mind 10 attend. And that kind
of q visitor Is worth a dozen who
come for the purpose of visiting, and
with no definite intention Of buying.
unless things are extremely cheap.
The farmer who Is going to have
sale should look well to the adyer-
Using.

Letters to Santa Claus.

Children can now write letters TO
Santa Claus and know that they will
be delivered, for such is the order of
Postmaster General Hitchcock. Here
tofore the post office department
ordered that all letters addressed to
Santa Claus should be sent to the
dead letter office where they were
destroyed. Many charitable organi-
zations and private parties have fire.
quently petit!oned the department
that these letters be turned over to
them that they might act upon them,
but the request was denied. Now the
postmaster general has decreed that
these organizations and individuals
who SO request be given such let
tiers, and no doubt many q little one
Will hear from Santa Claus, instead
Of their childish letters being sent to
the dead letter Office. Persons who
would take such letters must make
application TO the postmaster, and he
will use his judgment In giving them
out. Undoubtedly most of them will
be turned over to charitable organi-
cations for investigation. 1t is not
only the children OF the poor who
write letters to Santa Claus, but
those of the rich as well, and those
from the latter will not receive the
attention the others do, for the par
ents of the well to do will see that
their children's letters are answered.
