Catcher Roy Mcdonald.

An article in yesterdays Citizen
stated that Roy Mcdonald. who had
signed with the Kansas City Blues, of
the American association base ball
league. had been released by Manager
Gear. and had signed with the Pitts
burg. Kas., team of the Missouri Val
ley league. Roy was released to Man
ager Harris of the Pittsburg team with
the understanding that he could he re-
called any time he a wanted by the
Kansas City team The purpose of this
was to season the young player, and
get him in shape to go in when need
ed by the Kansas City team. This is
what is called farming a player.
While farming is against the rules
of the Association of Base Ball Clubs
it is nevertheless practiced under the
guise of a release. In case Maloney,
the Blues regular catcher gets hurt
or Is put out of the game in other ways
Roy Mcdonald will be quickly called
to take his place. 1t is a matter of
economy practiced by all professional
ball teams. That Roy will be among
the stars of the Missouri Valley lea
que goes without saying.

CHAPTER XVII.
THE WRITING OF EUNG.

For a long time after t.; neither CT
us spoke, for we feared that some one
might be listening. and pride forbade a
display either of fear or of regret. We
had staked, and we had lost, and now
the end was come. But deeply morti-
flying was the thought that we had
walked so easily into the trap. Before
setting out we had duly calculated the
chances of success and defeat, and
even with the latter staring us full in
the face we had hoped to go under
fighting. But to be cooped, chained in
this manner, with no ultimate hope of
escape or fight. plunged us into the ut
most depths CT dependency. 1t was
our own fault. Well, does that knowl-
edge make misfortune any easier to
bear?
With a refinement of cruelty thor
oughly Chinese we were so triced up
that il was impossible to move the
head either way for more than a foot
or two without experiencing a bite
from the sharp teeth of the collar. To
sit down, to kneel, to rest ever so
slightly, was utterly out of the ques-
ton, and, what is more, 1 knew that if
my strength failed me and tainted or
otherwise sank exhausted l should suf-
fer Il most horrible death from stran-

Then l was alone once more with my

and, though the little we had TO say
was full of the sadness of death, IL was

For full hour or more they left me
thus alone, and gradually my brain
was beginning to wander, my limbs to
refuse the task allotted them of sup
porting me. Visions of strangulation
and the sharp cutting Of iron teeth into
soft flesh began to haunt me, when Of
sudden the same two coolies who
had dragged Jim off entered the cham
