ever known in the history Of sporting
events was witnessed at the Speedway
when tickets for the memorial Day
race were placed on sale January IS.
Failure to obtain satisfactory seats for
last years race caused hundreds to be
in at the opening this year, with the
result that more than 10000 seats
were sold the first day. This made very
little impression on the immense seat
ing capacity Of $4,000, at the Speedway
but indicated somewhat the size of the
crowd which will witness the classic
contest. Last year the sale was not

A German hawker, Hans Bauer.

amused a little fortune. According to
a Paris contemporary, misfortune was
the foundation Of his success. The
hawker's specially was the sale Of por.
traits of the imperial family.
His mode of haranguing his audience
was something like this: BUY a por,
trait Of William l., whose motto was,
Il have no time to be wearied.'"
who'll buy this Frederick H., whose
prayer was, Teach me to suffer with

complete your collection and buy this
portrait Of our great emperor. William

This last always brought down the
audience. and in time the police, in
another sense. Bauermeister was sen.
fenced to sixty days for lese majest;
He did his time and on release re-
started His business. He sold his por.
traits with the old formula until he
came to that of the kaiser, and then
he said, II have learned to my cost
that it IL not lawful to repeat what
he says SO often" The people were
just as well pleased, and the portraits
sold splendidly.
