WON TOO MANY GAMES.
Contract Called For Compensation In
Number of Games Won.

Contract Called For Compensation In
Number Of Games Won.
A pitcher who lost his last job be-
cause he won too many games has just
been signed by Joe CantilIon of the
Minneapolis club and has joined the
Millers. His name is Howard Nc
Clintock, and he recently worked for
the Rockford club of the Wisconsin
Illinois league. He is a husky. young
man and throws with his right arm,
relying mostly on spitball which he
thinks will soon land him in big league
company.
McClintock wasn't satisfied with the
salary offered him by the management
of the Rockford club and proposed a
contract which was accepted by the
management. His contract read that
he was to be paid for games he won
and nothing for games he lost; also
he was to be allowed to pitch when
ever he felt so disposed.
The day after he made this con-
tract he felt like pitching. and the
manager sent him In. He won his
game so easily that the next day he
thought he would work again, and
once more he won.
When he won two more games in
three more days the management sent
out hurry call for him to go to the
Office where new contract was made
out for him. He refused to sign and
quit the team when not allowed to be
paid for winning games.
Joe CantilIon, who used to manage
the Senators, believes that McCintock
will greatly help his team.

Some of these men who buy and sell

sold him for $1.500 and then wanted
him back and was asked $1,000 and

like swearing?
A couple of years ago fellow

A cHILo's ENDOWMENT.

Most mothers who are interested in the education of their children try to devise plan whereby they can set aside nickies and dimes which the child receives They generally put it in a little tin bank which will mean something 10 the child in the future
 New York Life has just issued 6 new policy to cover this ground.
 The New York Life Ins. Co, is sues these policies payable either by annual or semi-annual premiums To secure the payment of an en- dowment of a fixed amount on al aiming the age of Is, 21 or 25 years which ever may be selected at the outset. These policies pay an annual dividend No medical examination is required
 The amount assured is always de ferred for a complete number oi years and the date of the applica ton, (that is the date Of the pay ment of the first premium) deter ruines the date upon which the date Of the contract terminates Thus, supposing the child is three years and four months of age a she time of the application for in surance, it will receive the amount assured either at she age of eigh- teen years and four months or twenty-one years and four months or twenty-five years and four months according to the period of the en- dowment
 The policy is non-forfeitable after three full annual payments have been paid The policy has a guar anteed cash value and embraces every advantage of twenty year en- tioWment policy for an adult after the child is fifteen years of age should the child die before attain ing the age of fifteen years the company will return the premiums received and the dividends accru ing on the policy. The advantage of this method of saving over any other is that the child has fixed plan for his saving and period 10 work to. We are going to make special feature of this policy, any enc interested in the future welfare of their children can get further particulars by calling at my office or dropping card to Box 3se, Bis bee

AFAk with Rose-had not known
 V for long time. She. was
 ineorrigibie-an incorrfgible giver. She would give away anything, from her slippers to the plume on her hat.
 She did that very thing once-took an eighteen inch ostrich plume from her hat and gave it to a girl book agent And when chided by my sister she merely opened wide her lovely gray eyes and exclaimed
 Why, Mary Ennis, that girl had never had an ostrich plume in her life. and she looked so tired and discour aged. I just could not buy her book it was about the horrors of something or other. But you ought to have seen the light in her face when I gave her that beautiful plume"
 Perhaps it would have been good to see the light in the girls face, but the light in Roses was enough to disarm Sister Mary It always ended that way. Dozens of Roses friends had undertaken to scold her roundly for her foolish generosity, but always when she had explained one felt that only brute could have done different iy.
 Rose had just begun to have some success with her drawings and was earning a little money.
 It will be such a help to her." said a friend. She loves pretty things so and has very few of +harn nor ,.hiIdr,
 Mary sniffed, out of patience: Help? What do you suppose she did with the $50 she got last month for those sketches? Buy her some gloves and neck ribbons and new waist? Not a bit of it. She sent S to some girl she used to know in school who is in Colo rado for her heaith and S to some crippled second cousin in the east, gave s to the heathen in India and spent the rest on the sick negro that does her chores and on her washerwOman's kids
 The worst of it is Roses ward robe. Her sou revels in beauty. She loves pretty things with the ardor of child But the prettier a thing is the surer the idea will pop into her head, What delightful present for somebody It requires the eternal vigilance of Mary and five or six of her intimate friends to keep Rose pre- seafable
