 This makes the small investor heavy stockhoIder

Until recently this stock has been sold in small amounts for cent per share, and consid- erably less for large amounts The more money paid in the cheaper the shares could be secured A few sales were made at the rate of 300,000 for $500.00
 In order to dispose of the block of stock which is now on the market quickly, we have decided to sell the shares in any amount at the rate of 100000 for $500.00. This gives the small investor the same rate per share as the heavier investor.

He possesses huge, powerful frame
and has speed to burn when working.
But Chance hasn't given Toney an
opportunity to spoil himself. His first
lesson in the Chance school was to
learn how to pitch a fast-breaking
ball overland, and Mordecai Brown
taught him this in rapid manner. And
not only has he been coached by
Brown, but Jimmy Archer, Tom Need,
ham and Johnny King have been at
work preparing Toney for the hill.
Chance took Toney around the east

PASSING OF GREAT PITCHER
Sam Lever, Recently Released Dy
Pittsburg, Had Remarkable Career
Twelve Years q Pirate.

The recent release of Pitcher sam
Lever by Pittsburg marks the pass
ing of the last remnant OF Tue o1
Pittsburg team as it was maze up
fore the consolidation OF the lla'0S
and Louisville, when the Natloh"l
league circuit was reduced from IL W
8 clubs. Until the season OF ASo1
brought a deal with Boston, LeeNei
had one old comrade of the late ~
in Clarence Beaumont, who was mar
ly let out of fast company by Chlcaso'
Levers career has been remark
able one, and shows the old PTate "
have been one of the greatest pltcners
In the history of the game. For IA
full seasons and part of another pen
nant race he had been a member Vi
the Pittsburg team and until the nlgnt
of time cut him down to emergency
roles, a few years ago, he always
ranked as one of the most successIui
slabmen in the majors Indeed, tnefe
is one feature to his record that put
him in a class of his own, for he was
champion pitcher of the Natlonal
league no less than than three times
1901, 1903 and 1905-while his name
also appeared at the head of the list
in two other years, though he did not
participate in a sufficient number OF
games to earn the title of leader
Lever, who is now thirty-eight
years of age, was secured by the Pitts
burg club of the Atlantic league, w.
H. Watkins being then manager OF
the pirates. Sam was troubled with
sore arm and pitched only one game
that season, but the following year he
was back with bells on, and from that
time on ranked as one Of the greatest
fingers in the business.
Since joining the Pittsburg team
Lever pitched grand total of 29O
games, and while this is not as much
work MS some other veteran beavers
have done, the records of few rivals
are to be compared with that of Lee
yer In the all-important matter OF
percentage of victories Of those 29O
games pitched, Lever won no less
that 1913 contests, against only 81
lost, for the remarkable percentage OF
$685.

for me to come back in the ring, the
lawn-mower got impatient and began
to bark at me in Yiddish, so decided
that our lawn could grow whiskers
like Populist farmer and be hanged
to it.
Another splendid bit of local color
in the life of some commuters is the
subway. A ride through this on hot
day will put you over on Woosey ave
nue. quicker than a No. 9 pill in Hop
Lees smoke factory.
In order to get out to Ruraldene I
have to use the subway, and every
time use it it leaves something which
looks like the mark of Cain across my
brow.
The first day I went through that
tunnel will always remain one of my
hottest memories.
I lost nine pounds of solid flesh
somewhere between my shoulder
blade and the outskirts.
The sensation is the same as a Bad
Mans hereafter, including the sulphur.
First I choked up a little, then
coughed, then l stirred uneasily, and
then / looked out the window and
prayed for the daylight, and then I
looked at my newspaper, but I couldn' t
read it, because the railroad company
had found the gas bill pretty heavy
last month and they were cutting down
expenses.
Then I lost my breath, and when I
got it back I found it wasn't mine.
Then I began to fan myself with
my hat, but l stopped when the man
behind me began kicking because /
was handing him more than his just
share of the subway gas.
Then l began to choke up again,
and then coughed, and then 1 could
feel something fat and mysterious
playing hide and go seek around my
brain, but outside all was black as
ink, and only from the noise could
tell that the road was still paying divi-
dends.
The air began to get close and thick
like a porterhouse steak in St. Louis
hotel.
began to breathe like my wife GRO
chefs an open-faced stocking-one,
two, three, drop one; one, two, three,
four, drop one.
Then my blood began to curdle and
cold chills ran up my back and liked
it so we'll they ran down again.
My respiration was to l, my in
spiration was to 6 for a place, and

my perspiration was like cloud
burst.

tai and Indian reservations, and was
choking up for the last time when
with one mighty jump forward, the
train shook itself free from the sub.
way and once more we were out in
the sunlight.
After picking enough sulphur OFF
my clothes to make box of matches,
l reached gently over and tried to put
the window up, but it was closed
tighter than the front door when a
collector calls.
1 gave the window-sash a couple of
upper cuts and a few short-arm
punches, but it sat there and laughed
in my face.
The guard came through, and
spoke to him about the window. He
said. "The first time l see the presi-
dent of the road Iii tell him about it! -
and left me fiat.
Once more l tried to open that win
dow, but 1 only succeeded in opening
my collar; so then opened my NOUN
and made short but spicy announce
ment, whereupon the old lady in the
seat ahead of me got up and left the
car.
Just then the train pulled into sta
ton which I hadn't paid for, but
went out and took it, because it con
tanned a little fresh air.
Some day will mention the name
of this subway company and make it
blush. Meantime you may have one
guess.
Well, after I left Bunch that after
noon, ducked for the depot, and
reached Ruraldene just in time to wit
ness the beginning of most painful
episode.
