quit, although the street lamps surround

There being no result, the positions OF the
teams remain the same. Detroit having
a lead Of seven points. Each team has
seven games on Its schedule before the
season ends. Had II not been for the fact
that two games were to have been played,
necessitating an early start, the game
would not have gone II innings.
The honors of the game undoubtedly
belong TO Donovan. who, after being ham,
mered for IA hits I'm seven innings, pulled
himself together. and the more he pitched
the better he seemed to get. In the last
10 innings he held the home team TO six
hits. He gave only three bases on balls
in the IL innings.
Dygert lasted only little more tnan
one inning. when he was relieved by the
famous Waddell The latter pitched re-
markable ball for three innings, striking
out six men OF the first eight men who
faced him. The crowd went wild over
the performance. but later he weakened
and was replaced by Plank in the ninth
inning after Cobb had hit him for home
run. tying the score. Plank pitched his
usual steady game and was seldom i'm

Nina started forward with an indig-

her fathers attitude as he rubbed his
hands together in thorough enjoyment
of Elton's maneuver, she stopped short
and walked over to the window with
her back turned to the two men.

Nina was back at the Manor. 1t was
only two days since she had left the
vicarage. but they had seemed two very
long days to her. Her fathers news
came upon her like a thunderbolt. At
Capt. Darrell's suggestion she had not
mentioned her engagement to him. for
he thought it would be better for them
to make their confession together.
And this afternoon she expected him.
He would probably arrive at the same
time as Sir Neil. Her face grew pale

With an effort she turned to her
father.

firmly, that | will not marry Sir Neil.

Mint turned round and looked at
her with a pale, white face; only her
eyes flashed with restrained passion.
''And what did you say" she asked.
What could l say?'' with a slight

And Edith stood still with flaming
cheeks. She had been called vulgar

said could have stung her more. She
began to wish that she had held her
tongue.
Meantime Nina was walking fast

BILE that he thought the same? Her
face tingled at the thought, and she
put up her hands to cover her hot
cheeks. She felt she never could bear
to look at him again.
So she walked and walked, and tried
in vain to shake herself free from her
wretched thoughts. And then, after an
hour or so, as she slowly wendell her
way home, she met him face to face.
They both stopped short, and he,
looking at her with eyes full of re-
proach, said:

He looked down into her ewes and

The fine weather continued: so did
the golf. Every morning the two met
on the links, and Nina before long al

in the game and unconsciousIy. she
was learning something else from him
too.
She had not heard from her father.
In his resentment at her conduct the
old Squire did not condescend to
