Marine was visited by Mrs. Weber
after the director had departed.
This is the last opportunity, the
matron said seriously, that you will
be given to admit your guilt. If you
refuse -"
Mrs. Weber paused as Marine
shook her head.
She went over to where the little
girl sat. her eyes red from long
weeping and her cheeks pale and less
plump than they had been. She was
determined to once more labor with
Marine and try to wiring from her a
confession. The matron's eyes had
filled with tears and her voice was
full OF tenderness as she pleaded with
the poor young prisoner to be rea-
sonable and tell all.
1T breaks my heart, dear" she
said. taking Marines hand within
her own, Ito have you act like this.
You were never so stubborn before.
Why Marine, l did not know 1t was
in you. Why are you SO now"
BY this time Marine was in tears.
Mrs. Weber began to take hope that
she would yet confess, for Of late the
child had shown no symptoms of
breaking down. She had only main
tanned a silence that seemed almost
sullen.
Wont you tell me how it was?"
the matron asked, softly stroking
Marines glossy hair.
But Marine only shook her head
and sobbed, Il can't
II can't" repeated Mrs. Weber
losing all patience. 1T is always q

and the matron turned and passed
out Of the door, leaving Marine tC

Mr.. Wood was somewhat Modified
by this explanation and replied less

Nothing. excepting that she Is

So Mr.. Wood went over all the har-
rowing details again, telling how the
theft had been discovered, how Jennie
Cowles had at first been suspected, but
was proven innocent, how Marine had
finally acknowledged having spent the
money and failing to give a proper

SIR Upton MAY RACE
WITH FREAK YACHT
Disappointed, But Willing
to Try Another Ninety
Foot Boat.
TO CONFORM TO CONDITIONS
English and American Yachtsmen
Critieise Requirements Which
Prohibits Fair Chance.

London, Sept. 2T.-White bitterly dis
appointed by the rejection of his chal-
lenge to race for the American cup
with a boat smaller than the ninety
foot class. Sir Thomas Upton has ex-
pressed his Willingness TO make one
more effort with a boat of this type
rather than forgo q race for the trophy
in 1908.
Last plight Sir Thomas had con
ference with Designer Fife. What
transpired at the conference was not
made known. but earlier in the day the
Irish baronet had stated that If Mr.
Fife would undertake the responsibility
of designing another ninety footer and
could offer any hope of success. an
other challenge. conforming to all the
requirements of the New York Yacht
club. would be issued Immediately.
His friend say it is extremely likely
Sir Thomas will challenge anyway, in
order to demonstrate to the American
people that he is sufficient of a sports
man to have another try, even though
III his heart he believes that under
present conditions he has not the
chance of lifting the cup.
Express Keen disappointment.
In an interview today Sir Thomas
admitted the declination of his chal-
lenge came like thunderbolt out of a
clear sky He said he had every
reason to believe from his talks with
members Of the New York Yacht club
this summer. and from what Mr.. Fife
told him upon his return from America,
that a challenge suggesting a departure
from the freak type of boat would not
only be accepted, but would be well
coined. So confident was his belief In
the acceptance of his challenge that de-
signs for two boats were already under
way.
when the cup was first won." he
said, 1T was by q healthy, seaworthy
type of boat, the America. Within ten
years boats have developed into freaks
and for me again to challenge would
simply impose the necessity to build a
more extreme freak Type than the pre-
vious challengers. Designers of repute
| in this country feel that the RESPONSE
| bility is too great to design such types
necessitating in the voyage across the
Atlantic risking the lives of the mer
who navigate them.
LAS / waited nearly four years Civ
ing others a chance, thought that per-
| haps a challenge under the New York
Yacht clubs own conditions would
prove acceptable. The type Of freak
machines which have recently con
| tested for the cup answer no usefu

for the scrap heap.
| Flies Advice to Guide Action.
| Races under the universal rule
would be educational and scientific
from the point of marine architecture
and would furnish models worthy OF
copying, but the New York Yacht clut
has given its decision. I feel that they
know the responsibilities of their po-
sition better than I, and I must abide
by their decision I must say have
never met a better set of sportsmen."

CHAPTER XIV.

How do you do, Mr.. Wood" said
a CHEEKY young voice, as the old
director of the asylum stepped aboard
an elevated train a few days after
his talk with Mrs. Weber. relative
to Marines case.
1t was Marshall Merrieweather
who spoke. Marshall had not gone
abroad when the Methvens took their
departure as he expected to enter
Yale in the fall and stayed behind
to study.
"How de do?" responded the old
gentleman uncertainty. "Oh, yes.
now I know who it is! My eyes are
getting old and I don't always know
folks. Mr.. Methven's ward, amt

spouse to the old directors ques-
ton. The latter continued:

hear from him?"
eve had one letter since they
reached the other side Everybody's
WE'LL"
There was an awkward pause and
then Marshall asked:
Whats new at the asylum? I be-
lieve you are a director?"
As a matter of fact Marshall knew
little about the asylum and cared
less. His young head had never
been bothered with troubles of his
own of a more serious nature than
this trigonometry and his Greek, and
he was not in the habit of looking up
other peoples woes, or realizing that
they had any. He asked about the
asylum merely to be polite and for
| the purpose of making conversation.
| Now if there was only one thing
old Mr.. Wood dotted upon talking
about, it was that asylum. He talk

interested and to ask intelligent
questions, but he soon abandoned
this and yawned, Che could not help

further heed to the old mans con-

Suddenly he awoke with a start to

Down. down, down where the Wurtz-
burger flows, and If they don't look
out the Sox will find themselves in
fourth position. The trimming yester~
day put them out of the running I'M
less they happen to go hard enough to
win nine straight games, which viii
put them in the running, but that kind
OF q stunt is practically impossible.
Besides they have to run up against
Boston and we all remember where
Boston got of last series. 1t was the
games lost in that series that put the
Sox down where they are at. Little
Dygert was there with the goods as
strong as Eddie Plank yesterday and
only two hits were the Sox able to
show. 1t IS in this kind of a finish
that the batting of team comes to the
fore and that is just where the Sox
are weak. They can't bat, at a time
when a hit means q run. Isbeu got
a two Dagger which put Jones on third
base, and the only score was made
when the leader crossed the plate on
Donahue's out. At no time wele the
Athletics in danger of losing the game
and from the first inning were never
headed. The Sox will open in Boston
today If the weather permits.
Detroit went on in the even tenor
of its way winning another game from
Boston in a free for all Singing bee.
Sewer was knocked out of the box
early in the game and Mullin went in.
He likewise felt the sting for the first
inning but after that he got going
and IL was all off with Boston The
Detroit sluggers We're busy through
out, WHO'D Sam Crawford getting four
hits. and Rossman was present with
three. Today the Tigers open with
the Athletics and Wild Bill Donovan
or Foxy Killian are waiting for the
chance. The series will show prob
ably which of the two teams win get
in on the fag.
Joe Cans will attempt to show To-
night that George Memsic IS yet an in
FAINT in the lightweight class. wher
they start in on the twentieth bout
at Los Angeles. 1t IS nothing more
than a workout for Joe, and the bes1
that any one can figure for MemsiC
is an O. K. on his record. Tommy
Burns is with his protege and is saying
that he viii surprise the fans but tbs
latter don't figure 1t that way. Memsi

1t Will be no unusual feat for the
Athletics or Tigers to win seven out
of their eleven games, but the Sox
have IA very poor chance of landing
nine straight. The leaders are prac-
ticaIIy certain to land six out OF the
eleven, and in order to tie the Tigers
the SOx must get eight out of nine,
which is requiring them to hustle
some. If they do not win eight Jones'
men have practically no chance to get
into the struggle.
