the gigantic sum registered on Mr..
Randolph's taximeter had promptly
stolen the preposterous clock, and was
now on the club steps Offering to set
tie with whoever was the interested
gent on fifty-fifty basis.
Great was the CONSERVATION of the
enterprlsing Spectator in theft when he
was confronted by two persons in one !;
namely, Mr.. II. ii. Randolph. lessee
of Car No. 1898, and Mr.. II. H. Ran
dolph, alias Slim Hervey, the irate
driver of said cab. His glib tongue,
loaded to the gills with arguments as
to how much the fare would save
through the sudden exit of the clock
from the ken of man, tripped hopeless
ly on this vision of wrath In the shape
of driver in whose interests the tick
err had been faithfully shaving.

could feel the added years.
The game ended, as do all titanic
battles, In absolute silence. Mr.. Ran
dolph sorted. stacked, tabulated his
winnings, and stuffed them into all the
pockets on his person, He then noted
the hour-eleven o'clock of n bright

with the Daily Night bank round the
corner or some other convenient base

money to catch old. But Mr.. RAN
dolph had no occasion to do this. His
heap of chips and cash of the realm
rested on too solid base Of Its own.
There may be recorded an amusing
diversion from the serious business in
hand. II was ushered In by the crest
fallen Herbert, who confessed that ac-
tual physical exhaustion had driven
him TO forty winks. during which time

accessories had stopped, spellbound by

another pitcher-preferably left
handler. They had heard of Mails, and
were willing to give anything in reason
TO secure him.
Cleveland gave Sacramento $4,000
I'm cash when Mails left the Senator's.
1t turned over two pitchers, Faeth and
Niehaus, each of whom Rodgers fig
ures worth $1,000.
BY terms of the agreement, Cleve-
land must deliver another ball player
satisfactory to Sacramento, or make
another payment of $4,000 to close
the deal.
Perhaps Rodgers idea of the value
of his two pitchers at 5000 each is
a little high, but the $4,000 and two
players makes ii stand as one of the
largest deals ever - led In the Coast
league.

Cleveland Gave Sacramento $4,000
In Cash and Three Players Valued

Ball players have been sold by Coast
league clubs to the majors for large
sums of money, but 1t is believed that
the transaction which sent Walter
Mails to Cleveland last August is the
record for this circuit, writes Coast
correspondent.
As Bill Rodgers, manager and part
owner of the Sacramento club, figures
1t. the Senators will get $4,000 for
Mails, who was one of the sensations
of the American league after Joining

Slim HerYey's Intention to watt this
precious pair to some bosky retreat,
cover them with leaves, and hold them
for ransom, but such was not the case.
He desired nothing from these two
potentates among race of lucre
giants beyond what might come to him
through his ever-open speaking slot.
This is all he heard:
'Lewisfader is getting kind Of
fresh"
"That's what been thinkln'."
"When?"
"What about Friday. when the Bun
kers-Bolweeyll report comes outY
Good Ideal Friday 1t Is"
Not another word, but as IL hap
pened, II was enough to start Mr.. Ran
dolph honking uptown the moment he
had dropped his laconic fares ut their
next board meeting. No one had to
tell him who Lewisfader was; he had
been to college with that financlers
son, and If there was one thing above
all others that said offspring was good
at, II was blowing his fathers horn.
Lewisfader was this and Lewisfader
was that, but principally and especial
ly he was the central rock In the money
maestrom known to the stock market
AS "Amal. /. S. & c." which had only
lately dared to swell Its portent0us
belly In the company Of the most de-
veloped and vicious saurians of the
financial world
All the way uptown, Mr.. Randolph's
face was concentrated In the nearest
approach to n frown of which II was
capable. He was not. however, weigh
ing the substance of what he had heard
this way and that, for the simple rea-
son that the moment the one word,
"Lewisfader," had reached his ears, he
had seen the great light and grasped
his bunch beyond any thought of look
ing back. That part of 1t was settled !;
what worried him now was the amount
of ways and means In his pocket. BY
thinking very hard, he added up his
capital without bringing 1t forth to tho
light of day. The exact sum was six
ty-elght dollars and fifty cents.
No sooner had he passed the test In
mental arithmetic than he drew mp a
little beyond the front door of the Rock
ct club. He started to leave his cab,
paused, considered and then deliber-
ately lowered the flag. As he entered
the lobby of the club. four scandalized
fronts leaped to bar his way. They
asked him a variety of biting ques-
tons: Did he think 1t was night
was he calling on? Was he looking for
Mills hotel?
Herbert !" roared Mr.. Randolph,
The funetionary named, head door
man for the Rocket club since first 1t
started on It's appropriately meteoric
career, leaped from his dignlfed seat
on the somnolent side lines and stared
wide eyed mt the servile apparltlon
that had dared shout the open sesame
TO that inviolate portal.
"Mr. Randolph" he gasped at last
and the stunned fronts started to stink
away.

overcoat TO another, gloves to the third

ELIMINATE BAD FEATURE

Belmont park race track, New
York, long regarded as the finest
course in America, will eliminate
an Objectionable feature, the
horses being required to run to
the left instead of the right.
This is the style on many Eng
lish courses, but next year the
Belmont course will conform to
the American method, the horses
