Of all 'lhe big races of the vear, the 500- mile event is looked upon as the one most likely to furnish the fastest speed and attract the biggest crowds. Last year more than 100,000 people saw Rene Thomas drive a elage to victory at the rate of 87.47 miles per hour. Thomas will not be among those who will attempt to lexceed that record in this year's jevent, he not being able to get the j Delage people to 1t him have a car because of the war on the other side. | Goux, Boillot, Guyot and Duray, all of whom were prominent in the race last year, also will be missing. Thomas, last year’s winner, re- jceived $21,500 for winning, and it is estimated that the winner this year will receive a much larger sum. In addition to the money prizes, there are several valuable trophies offered. Louisville had to cut down to the player limit of the ussoc'auon S0 sent a player to the St. Louis Browns.

NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By Charles Henry Adams New York, May 29—Wall street has a sweet tooth. Many persons believe that the men of the financial district have taste only for the nec- essary things of luncheon, have lit- tle time for desserts and no time— or, at any rate, no tooth—for sweet- meats during business hours. As a matter of fact, Wall street men are co-oworkers with matinee girls and school children in bulling the candy market. A few caramels are fre- quently preferred to a plate of chicken gumbo, a handful of choco- late bon bons often run a lamb stew a close chase around the appetite course, and gumdrops have caused many a case of indigestion. It is no unusual sight to see a box of candy at one of the posts on the Stock Ex- change floor. Candy is for sale in almost every large office building, fn the financial district, and there are hundreds of vendors of choco- lates and similar edibles in the re- gion. Wall street likes sweet things J. B. | mation, Phone 169.

The pitcher treated him with respect, allowing him to walk to the first. Casey followed, and Hearn- den’s error enabled him to reach second in safety. Caswell then threw wildly at first bag, and before the ball was recovered Marre and Casey had sprinted across the plate. Tuck- er meanwhile had made good on the diamond, but Bragg's fly, which was muffed, gave the fieldsman an op- portunity of cutting the runner out at third, Bragg consequently scored on Brown's hit to the country, mak- ing three runs for the innings.

You know she is a type- writer. Well, she brought home a lot of stuff to copy, but it had to be done by morning. If it was done well she was sure of a lot of such quick orders right along, and what do you think? There was a note for her from a girl friend whose mother is dying, asking her to come to her at once. It's her good tender heart! I heard her sigh as she put down the work. ‘My duty is to my friend,’ she said, and she has gone to sit up with the dying lady.” Walter Bliss said no more just then. He was a roomer in the same house, but hé had never spoken to the young girl in whom he had become interest- ed and whose lack of employment he had learned from the talkative Norah. He could not get Miss Verda Thorpe out of his mind. He went out into the hall as he heard the maid come its length. “Norah,” he sald, “you are a good girl and I know you like Miss Thorpe.” “I do, indeed, sir,” she responded. “She is so kind and good to me. I pity her, too. It's too bad that she will have to lose a good chance by tak- ing that work back in the morning, I&n't it, now?” “You bring it to me, Norah,” direct- ed Walter. “We can be immensely helpful to Miss Thorpe. I will do the copying on my own machine.” Norah stared at this generous- hearted young man with an actual tear in her eye. “You are a good man, Mr. Bliss,” she sajd, “and you'll get a blessing for this. When I tell Miss Thorpe of your kindness—" “Oh, dear! not that,” immediately in* terrapted Walter. “That must be the last thing in the world to do. No, no, you must faithfully promise me that you will never tell Miss Thorpe about my share in the transaction.” ‘But she will wait to know—" “I will place a note in the work that will explain everything,” sald Walter. When Verda Thorpe came home from her mission of mercy the next morning she was fairly bewildered to discover the work she had set aside all neatly done. A note on top of the copied sheets read: “A friend who appreciates your noble sacrifice for a dying friend wishes to contribute this much of time to help you out.” The work gained Verda a permanent ined free.
