REALLY NOT so VERY CRAZY
Man With Money to Invest Might
Have Made Big Profits-Many
Cases on Record.

A man entered a picture gallery tho
other day and said:
I've got 10000 that l want to
spend in the encouragement of native
art. l want to buy paintings by un-
known painters of talent. This will
help the painters along, and, il I
choose wisely, it will be a good invest.
ment for me. l put myself in your
hands"
Needless to say the dealer was
more than pleased.
you're a wise man and a good
man." he muttered, and he had al
ready chosen for his patron 1870 can.
vases, valued at $4,000, when q uni
formed keeper entered. The patron
was, alas! insane.
But, dear reader; ere you smile.
stop and ask yourself if that lunatic's
proposition was so very ~lunatic, after
all. q
Men go daily to their bankers with
sums far greater than 100000; they
ask their bankers to choose invest
ments for them; and the bankers
choose N. G., which later on drops 70
points; and P. D. r., which drops 81
points; and New Haven, which drops
$50 points; and 8. o. H.. which van.
ishes altogether. Yet the action Of
these men is not deemed insane and
nobody dreams Of smiling at it.
Why smile, then, at the lunatic's
action? The lunatic a score of years
ago could have spent his 100000 on
Whistlers at $50 or SIS that are now
worth $4,000; on Illnesses at 500
that have risen to $4,000; on Sisleys
at $3.50 that easily fetch $780, New

HEARING ON
COAL RATES
South Dakota Expert Protest:
Against Advance. Asked by.
Carriers.

Chicago, April 16.-An analysis Of
coal freight rates to South Dakota
points was made today before w. M.
Daniels, interstate commerce commits.
si0ner, in the hearing of the petition
of forty-one western railroad systems
which are seeking advance in freight
rates on certain commodities.
D. L. Kelley, rate expert of the
South Dakota railroad, commission,
presented comparisons of coal freight
rates in South Dakota with coal rates
in other sections of the country. His
figures covered both eastern coal en-.
.tering the northwest by Lake Super
ior gateway, and coal hauled from
Illinois and Indiana mines. "
He introduced the figures which he
detailed IS showing that South Da-
kota points already suffer from dis.
elimination in freight rates, and that
the proposed advance of ten cents a
ton would be an additional burden.
His testimony laid stress on the con.
tention that the haul to South Dakota
consuming points was from two to
three times the average haul on soft
coal for the entire country.
notwithstanding this situation
said Kelley. rates per ton mile are
higher, though normally 1t is an &C.
copied rule of rate making that the
longer the haul, the lower the rate
per ton mile should be- The pro-
posed increase, the witness estimated,
would cost coal consumers of South
Dakota over $91, 900 yearly.

full Game, But Tiges
Fail to Score


PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 4.-The
Tigers arrived In Quakertown this
morning for a fivegame series with.
Connie Mack's club. II was q rather
forlorn gang OF athletes that left the
train and hit the trail for the hotel
and eats. The result Of yesterdays
contest at Boston left no Joy In the
Bengal camp. and the executive SEES
sion on the train last night was far
from being love feast.
The fact that Coveleskie pitched
his heart out yesterday In an effort
TO land victory. and then was de-
MED the reward that 10 promised
Tiger hurlers who hurl well. did
nothing to crack the gloom and let
little sunshine through. II Is
barely possible that the Tigers can
do so well in Philadelphia that they
will regain the ground lost yester-
day. but 1t is not probable. with
Cleveland playing at Boston. There
will be a double-header this week.
probably on Saturday. and the
Tigers have not won both ends OF a
double bill this season. So only
some sensational battling by Cleve-
land can help the Tigers much this
week.
The final game at Boston was a
heart-breaker. The Tigers leaped
on Shore In the first inning for three
hits and a run. Shore, Carrigans
mound choice, is a hard nut for the
Tigers to crack. and this trio of hits
looked very promising. Bush. Cobb
and Crawford were the persons in
volved In this initial run. Later 1t
developed that this was to be a very
lonesome tally.
Speaker robbed Detroit of another
run in the third. when he made a
great running catch OF Cobb's line
drive. after Bush had got another
single. In the fifth, Bush again sim
gled. and so did Cobb. but there was
no scoring.
In the ninth, Burns doubled to left
~ h'Nf' pottCo AOA
and walked. Moriarty and Mckee
were the other pinch hitters called
upon, and they did nothing.
Meanwhile Coveleskie held Boston
TO four hits. None came until the
fifth, although a run had been scor-
ed In the second round That was
when Gamer was hit by a pitched
ball. Lewis sacrificed. and Bush
threw wild on Barry's grounder. In
the seventh, Lewis got Boston's sec
ond hit, single to left. After Gard
ner had rolled out. Barry doubled to
center, scoring Lewis. and winning
the game and again proving the ad-
visibility OF his purchase by Boston
from Philadelphia. IL any one thing
will have more to do than another
with the possible winning of the pen
nant by Boston. 1t will be the mid.
season acquisition OF Barry.
