The Montgomery baseball situation is decidedly encouraging. and the Climbers are in excellent shape now for the coming championship race
 The most recent sensation in South ern baseball circles was the deplorablc episode in Birmingham whereby Ike Durrett lost control of himself and made fatal bIunder. Nobody re- gretted the affair more than the Mont gomery fans and the local team itself. Ike Durrett is one of the most honest. straightforward men in the world. He was working faithfuily to make his appointment were bitter at having games taken from him by what he claimed to be unfair methods. He Els team and the Montgomery fans arc certainly appreciatfve, but the result of the mistake he made in Birming was natural
 In appointing Mullaney manager of the team President P. P. Amerine has made another admirable selection. The results of Mullaney's methods in hand There ns hs s sssr es sm beP9sr int side work and a great improvement on the coaching line. At the very begin ming Muflaney told the players in Ian, that he would not for one minute tol- crate drinking or other bad habits by any member of the team.

Noblett Is sinsned.


 Yesterday Mullaney signed Bert Nob- lett who was with Atlanta last year: He played third base for Atlanta last year, but will be placed in left field with the Climbers.
 Nobiett is very fast and a hard hit ter, leading the Southern League last year in batting with the following record:
 In thirty games he had s6 times at bat, IA runs. 3f hits. four sacrifice hits, three stolen bases. and batting average of 1854.
 While he wall be played regularly in left field. he can be used In q pinch position in the infield.
 Hausen plays a rattling. good first base, McAleeee and McMakin a good outfield so 1t will be seen that the Climbers are unusually. strong when it comes to utility men,

way between them and where the boat had
been. Over him Gomez was bending, with
troubled look on his face, as he tried to
staunch the flow of blood from a ragged
wound in the mans arm. The fire was scat
tered in every direction, and had not the un-
derbrush been so thoroughly wetted by the
rain, a very. serious con6agration would have
been kindled.
Nothing could be seen Of the boat save here
and there few backened smoking fragments,
while the bedding and property belonging to
the men that had been under il were burning
fercey.
The brush fire in front Of the boat had
communicated in some way to the ammuni

cred that they had no idea what they could
or should do. They stood gazing at the scene
until Gomez electrified them by shouting, as
he ran toward the ruins:
Come! Help me to put out the fire, for the
secret writings are all here!"
Neither of the boys stopped to think that
If the precious document could be saved it
would be of no advantage to them, but they
followed their enemy with as much alacrity as
if striving for their freedom.
1t was little, however, that any one could
do toward extinguishing the flames, for there
was no means of carrying water To beat it
out with sticks or branches, or by shoveling
sand on the burning goods, was the only
successful method that could be employed,
and in this primitive manner it wes fully

These are all that are left of what you
took from u.s."
Throw them away!" cried the spaniard,
6ercely. ''What do you suppose want with
that trash? 1t would have been better If |
had never heard of it,"
1--WE have been thinking the same ever since
the day you first came here" Bob said, in
matter of fact tone, as he walked toward his
companions
Shut your mouth" roared Gomez, with
out looking up from his work
And Percy actually danced with delight be-
cause Bob had been bold enough to make the
reply, although his face grew grave as he
thought that their hope of getting the treasure
was now very slight indeed.
There was no attempt made toward resum-
ing the work Of digging that day. The wound
ed man and his companion remained under the
shelter of the trees, while Bob, Percy and
Dudley stayed within hailing distance, but
sufficiently far away to be able to- converse
without being overheard.
The destruction of nearly everything be-
longing to Gomez and his party prevented the
boys from doing anything toward carrying out
their plan OF secreting supplies, and it began
to look very much as If the proper moment
had now come when an attempt should be
made to escape
Percy was arguing in favor of such course,
Dudley against it, and Bob acting as chair
man of the meeting, when a loud shout was
heard from the direction of the inlet followed
not long afterward by the appearance of the
Jaduita.

be likely to prevent us from sleeping on the
telucca, now that there's no chance Of sailing
her; and can make sure of the crytogram
at any rate"
II we could only manage to let the folks
at nome know where we are, it wouldn't be
long before we would be out of these fellows
power" Bob said, thoughtfully.
And then he relapsed into a most unac-
countable silence.
That no other work, save what was neces-
sary about the camp, was to be begun during
tne remainder of the afternoon was shown
when all the men, including the wounded
Launee, commenced what was evidently in
tended should be regular orgie.
hey ordered the boys to prepare boun-
tltul supper, and then gave themselves up to
such -solace and pleasure as unlimited in
duigence In liquor is mstakably supposed to
grant.
If we only had spare sail we could
easily give them the slip tonight" Percy said,
=, we can do something toward regaining our
liberty" Bob replied in a hopeful tone Gas
soon as we are through with the cooking, go
on board the felucca, and / will tell YOU of
a plan by which we may accomplish consider
1t was hardly more than five O'Clock when
the boys, having done all that had been re-
qulred OF them, and receiving no further or
ders, were once more alone in the cabin Of the
vessel that was owned by them, but not really
in their possession
Los Angeles herald., 1906-10-21

The little craft had never looked so beauti-
full to the boys as when she glided into the
harbor, coming to an anchor within short
distance of the shore.
Nv hen she leaves here again, we must be in
her" Percy said, in a low whisper.
And Bob nodded his head energetically to
show that he agreed perfectly with the mate.
1t was not many moments after the men
returned before Gomez made them acquainted
with what had occurred, and the felucca was
swung into the shore, SO that landing could
be effected.
"Get on board, unbend the jib and main
sail, and make tents of them here on shore, !"
the Spaniard shouted to the boys.
And one quick, troubled glance was ex-
changed between Bob and Percy.
Without any canvas on her spars, it would
be next to impossible for the felucca to reach
the mainland, and their scheme for escape was
practically at an end.
There was no hope even of making sue
cessful resistance for one of the men was still
on board the vessel, and they reluctantly
obeyed.
Both the sails were unbent and set UP near
the waters edge, under the direction of Co.
mez, forming one large tent, into which the
wounded man was CARED and the work of re-
moving the stores was begun.
A quantity of provisions had been brought,
and, in addition, cask of some kind OF liquor,
which was broaehed as soon as it was carried
into the tent.
"There's one thing about ii" Percy said,
triumphantly, as the boys were standing near
the camp. awaiting further orders. ''they wou't

half an hour before the work was accom-
plished.
Gomez had not been able to devote all of
his time to the attempt to rescue the paper,
for his companion had been 50 severely injured
by ball from one of the exploding cart
ridges that it was necessary for him to do
what he could toward dressing the wound.
The efforts of the boys were in vain. Sew
eral charred pieces of parchment and a few
strands Of the rope were found, but that was
ALL Save for the copy and the Measurements
that were hidden in the forepeak of the
Jaquita, the clew Of the pirates hoard was
lost, and if the felucca was swamped the treas
ure would never be found.
'1t seems as if it was bad luck to have any
thing to do with the things" Dudley said
ruefuly. f"The man who buried the gold
didn't live to get it again; the. sailor who
gave Bob the letter died before he could get
here: we surely have had trouble enough
since we started out and now the last man
who studied the cipher has got bullet in his
arm"
Although neither Bob nor Percy believed
in what is commonly called "bad luck" they
could not repress feeling very nearly akin to
awe as they thought Of the trouble which had
come in a short time to all those who had in
env way been connected with what could moi
he other than illgotten gain.
Gomez had helped his friend to a shady
place among the trees, and was still engaged
in his attempt at surgery when Bob carried
him the fragments Of parchment that had
been found, saying, as he held them up in
full view;

after the letter was written; so we took the
whole Of the shadow"
Launce, who held the cryptogram in his
hend, now produced the rope, and, laying it
on che ground, with the loop directly over
where the keg had been found, tried to form
some plan Of. operation; but in this, as may
be Imagined, he did not succeed.
:, Commence work right along this line"
Gomez said, at length. "Dig down to the
rock, and don't be afraid. or I'll find way
Oh persuading you that won't be agreeable"
The boys did not show any disposition to
olsooey the order, and Gomez and lAunce
seated themselves in comfortable position
nearby, where they could smoke and oversee
the work without too much exertion.
one thing had cheered Percy wonderfully,
ana that was the sight of the cryptogram and
rope 1t proved that those who had gone
away In the Jaquita had not done 80 for the
purpose OF hnding some one who could de-
clpner the messages, and from the way in
whlch The two men looked at and discussed
the, secret writing, it was evident that they
read it.
by noon the task which Gomez had set
was completed. A trench had been dug the
tuli length of the line Of shadow, and no
evidence of treasure had been seen. Except
In the place where the keg was found, the
sand showed no signs of having been disturbed,
and the Spaniard gave the order for all hands
to return to the harbor
Ahehoonday rest was prolonged nearly three
hours for the heat of the sun in the thicket,
where no cooling wind could be felt, was
too much even for the man, although the only
work they did was to smoke cigarettes
When the digging was again resumed, il
was after. the most aimless fashion. Gomez
would walk from one place to another, point
ing out certain spots which he thought most
promising, and the boys would be forced to
Dig until their taskmaster was convinced that
the treasure was not there
1t was method of proceeding that had in
1t but slight promise Of success, unless the
soil on the entire key was to be disturbed
and when they retraced their steps to the
harbor at night fall, it was evident that the
Spanlard was trying to form some other plan,
for he held long and confidential consulta-
ton with his friend, which did not appear to
result satisfactorily to either.
After the supper had been eaten, the boys
were too weary to walk to their old camp
Ihey made bed on the sand, with no other
protection than the overhangng foliage, while
the pirates rested comfortably on the mat
