hard. sneering voice of Hebrera the stranger
Ugarte rose slowly from his knees.
RUT he was alone. The tinkle of a mule bell
came family to his ear; then Ceased,-the
silence of the desert swallowed it. So great had
been the projection of his spirit, that for some
time the full possession of his earthly faculties
did not return to him Great peace then de
scended on his soul.
Taking the lamp from the wall, with the
measured step of one walking IN sleep, he
sought the chapel. From its place of conceal
ment he withdrew the little box of pearls To
his beattied spirit all the celestial hosts sang
IN rejoicing. With the casket pressed to his
breast, he returned to his place before the holy
picture. Setting the Jewels Tevcrently down,
he crossed himself devoutly. His face was
transIgured. Every trace of sorrow, WEAKNESS,
and care was gone. The miracle of miracles
had taken place! Like the hernits Of old, he
had beheld a heavenly vision
30 blessed Saint Anthony Of Paduai' he
cried. " | knew thee at thy gracious coming,
and | knew thee at the moment of thy vanish
ing. Q blessed Saint Anthony, interCede for me
at that throne to which thou goest!"
The white dawn found HIM still kneellng. As
the beams Of rose light grew stronger, the mar
ves of the night paled before the demands of
new dav.
He rose. \ puzzled look gathered his fur
rowcd brows, as he took up the treasure box.
1t was but to try me, l know he said
aloud. " But would would that the blessed
saint had not said that-that about the wealth
that lies dormant" Then. with clearing brow
he added. Some shall be placed upon the
shrine Of Saint Anthony

COLLINS BATTING
RAISED FALO
But Potter Didn't Raise His
Pay-Always Could and
Did Hit.

BUFFALO, NY, July 12-Orth Collins,
Buffalo's late right fielder, about TO be
signed by Washington, is regarded here
as one of the greatest finds in local
baseball history
He left Buffalo because, as he main
tains, the mana cement did not keep its
promises with him and not a game mas
been played since his departure that
there has not been some kind Of a
demonstration to show the fans dissp-
prevail of his loss.
Buffalo was in sixth place when Col
Inns was secured from Terre Haute Of
Central League at $500 a month with the
understanding that If he made good
within ten days his salary would be
considerably raised above that which he
was getting with Terre Haute. That
was six weeks ago be at once made
good and batted above the 800 ma1K all
the time he was here. It was his hit
ting that rejuvenated the team and put
70 into second place. His hits were snost
timely, resulting often in the winning
run.
Fifteen days after he had come here
he asked for the raise. He was put on
until the deal for Catcher Ryans de-
livery to jersey City was accomplished.
-
President Potter and asked for the extra
fifty promised. Potter again put him
off and he refused to enter the second
game of the day against MOntre Al
President Potter threatened him with
everlasting blacklisting from organized
baseball and branded his action as a
rank hold-up.
At first, the feeling of the fans was
bitter against Collins, but when the
facts became known he became more Of
a hero than ever, and discomfort now
prevails everywhere over his loss Buff
faIO has dropped from second to fourth
place.
Collins PLAYED with Terre Haute for
several seasons, having gone there from
Rochester which was the first big club
with which he played. Last year with
TeTre Haute he batted go and fielded
o51 South Bend finished second In the
Contra League race.
Collins is a Washington resident and
a prominent bowler there.

TRYING TO MERGE
MAXWELL BRISCOE
Detroit Hears of Plan of
General Motors Company
To Enlarge.

DETROIT. Mich, July 12.-It is con-
fidently believed by the Detroit auto
mobile trade that the General Motors
Company and the Maxwell Briscoe Com
pany are negotiating for a merger Of
the combines into one big organization.
President Briscoe aud Wee President
Maxwell, of the TarrytoWn firm. are
both here. 1t. was first reported that the
General Motors was tryiag to supple
NEXT its Cadillac triumph by absorbing
the Maxwell company. When Mr.. Bris-
coe was asked concerning it he an
swered:
Il hardly know how to answer that
question. but it is much more likely that
some company would come to the Max
well-Briscoe than that the Maxwell
Briscos woulc go to any other combina-
ton. we now have FIVE plants, two in
Tarrytown, one in Providence, one in
Pawtucket, and one in New Castle, Ind,
with a combined capacity OF $1,000 cars
a year. This is much larger than any
General Motors constituent company,
and a number Of our people are inter
ested In other companies that could an
nually turn out 10000 TO 1900 more
cars"
This is taken as confirmation of the
story OF an attempt to form big
merger, II being practical admission
that negotiations are under way.

FOR BIG FIGHT
That So, 500 Detail of the
Ketchel-Langford Match

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July PA
widely spread rumor that the proposed
Nevada fight between KetcheI and

be well founded
The fact that nothing in the shape of

Tex Hail, who represented the club
here, said had been done, seems to cast
doubt on the entire proceeding.
From the beginning the whole thing

of Schedule.

intercollegiate crew championship al
POughkeepsie last year, but defeated by
Cornell in this years regatta, is anxious
to secure varsity race with Harvard
during the training season, in case
Harvard makes any change in her
rowing schedule, a step that now seems
not altogether unlikely.
Coach James s. Wray, Of the Harvard
crews, In a statement over his own
signature the morning following this
years Harvard-Yale race at New Lon
don, strongly advised some radical
changes in Harvard's preliminary races.
and in consequence Of Coach Wray's

holding relatively similar position in
connection with Harvard athletics, ask
