You'll read statistics by the ton,
you'll read descriptions by the dTay,

the experts say of how the Bostons
ran or hit, this fact. stands out as
plain as day-they are the team That

Since baseball annals have begun
no harder bunch has dared the fray,
no blows of adverse fate could stun
the courage of such men as they, for

NEW SORT OF BREAD LINE-IT
LEADS TO CoRONER'S OFFICE

There is a new bread line" in Chi
cago. 1t leads to the cOroner's Office.
Every day poor men out of work ap-
pear at the coroner's Office and ask
that they be placed on a cOroner's
jury to collect dollar for their aid
in an inquest.
Hoffman is in favor of the plan of
using poor men, men with families if
possible, for jurors, as the fee of one
dollar per case often is great help.
"The men chosen for jury service
are capable men,, said Coroner Hoff-
man. But then, as conditions are
now, it is easy to find capable men

STEALING BIG SUMS
Robbery on Large Scale Often
Seems Very Easy.
Method Employed in Philadelphia
Successful for Long Time, But
Finally Ended in Discovery
and Suicide of Broker.

Philadelphia.-It often seems easier
to steal $4,000 than to steal 10 cents.
The youth who recently spent 81 car
fare and ran over from New York
with bunch of stock and borrowed
100000 in Philadelphia is by no
means an isolated Individual
A Philadelphia broker not so long
ago got a good deal more than that
and didn't waste anything for car fare,
says the Ledger His method was
simplicity cubed. f. would buy one
share of stock for, say 500, then raise
the mineral to make it 100 shares
and so worth $4,000.
The operation was repeated, only in
larger figures, and these fraudulent
certificates were taken to the bank,
where a very great sum was Dor
rowed. His transaction went on for
some years before detection and then
suicide ended the case.
Earlier still, Philadelphia street
railway official, who seemed to need
some cash, filled out a bunch of new
stock certificates in his own name and
01AO ON~N'A~S
The case of a safe deposit superin-
tendent in Philadelphia a couple of
years ago was even more extraordi-
nary than these others.
He took $1,900,0G0 in securities with
about $4,000 cash from the vaults of
the trust company that employed him.
The securities were carried in two
ole suitcases and we're checked in a
German city in an ordinary storage
house. They remained there for
months, untouched.
This man crossed the ocean six
times during the subsequent negotia-
tons with detectives for the return
of the stocks and bonds. He went
across the American continent to San
Francisco twice
His motive in travelling was to in
sert advertisements in about fifty diff
ferent newspapers, as this was his
method Of carrying on his communi-
cations with the authorities. He went
from place to place so that it was
difficult to locate III which one of the
fifty cities he might be.
All the securities we're returned,
but not the $4,000 cash.
Quite a number of banks and some
brokers in Philadelphia have what
may be called a blanket insurance.
This is a different thing from the ordi-
nary bonding Of individuals, which is
done by the surety companies.
A broker takes out, say a 100000
policy. to cover any loss whatsoever
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1914-02-11

which may occur through the error
or connivance of an employee or which
comes from any outsider
1t is the same thing as if a farmer
were to insure against any possible
loss to his crops through drought, eX-
cessive rain, heat, cold hail or snow.
You may insure yourself against
having a cold when the assembly ball
occurs, or against a case of measles
during the next worlds series.
This greatest Of betting concerns
in the world, which is known as
Lloyds', simply lays a wager at odds,
which it has carefully figured out, that
this or that thing won't happen
Judging by the prosperity of this
unique institution, it is also a safe
wager that it has the odds ciphered
somewhere to its own advantage.
