CHAPTER v.
"Evans. s. R.n


The car ran silently through the
park and out on the broad Sheridan
road. Orme put on as much speed as
was safe in a district where there
were so many police. From time to
time the girl indicated the direction
with a word or two. She seemed to
be using the opportunity to rest, for
her attitude was relaxed.
The hour was about eleven, and the
streets were as yet by no means de-
serted. AS they swung along Orme
was pleased by the transition from
the ugliness of central Chicago to
the beauty of enthusiastically beauti-
full by night The great highway fol-
lowed the lake, and occasionally,
above the muffied hum of the motor,
Orme could hear the tapping of the
wavelets on the beach.
The girl reused herself Her bear
ing was again confident and untired.
Have you been up this way before?''
she asked
mo, Girl"
This is Buena park we are passing
now. We shall soon reach the city
limits"
Clouds had been gathering, and
suddenly raindrops began to strike
their faces. The girl drew her cloak
most closely about her. Orme looked
to see that she was protected, and
she smiled back with a brave attempt

at cheerful comradeship. Don't worry
about me-" she said. I'm quite dry"
With that she leaned back and drew
from the tonneau a light robe. which
she threw about his shoulders.
The act was an act of partnership
merely, but Orme let himself imagine
an evidence of solicitude in her
thoughtfulness. And then he demand
ed of himself almost angrily: What
right have l to think such thoughts?
She has known me only an hour"
But to him that hour was as a
year, so rich was its experience. He
found himself recalling her every
change of expression, her every char
acteristic gesture. She has accepted
me as a friend" he thought, warmly.
But the joy of the thought was modi-
fed by the unwelcome reflection that
the girl had had no choice. Still, he
knew that. at least, she trusted him,
or she would never have let him ac-
company her, even though she seri-
ously needed protection.
They were passing a great GENE

The white stones and monuments fed
by the car like dim and frightened
ghosts. And now the car swung along
with fine houses, set back in roomy
grounds. at the left, the lake at the
right.
do you know this city," the girl
asked.
Il think not. Have we passed the
Chicago limits?"
YES. We are in Evanston"
EVANSTON" Orme had a glimmer.
The girl turned and smiled at him.
Evanston-Sheridan Road"
"Evans-S. r." exclaimed Orme.
She laughed low laugh. "Ah,
Monsieur Dupin!" she said.
Speeding along the lake front, the
road turned suddenly to the left and
west, skirting a large grove of trees
which Rugged the shore. Just at the
TURF was low brick building on the
beach. "The life-saving station" ex-
planned the girl; land these are the
grounds of the university The road
goes around the campus, and strikes
the lake again mile or more farther
north"
Large buildings were at their right
after they turned. Orme noted that
they were scattered among the trees
some near the street, some at a dis
lance back. Then the road again
turned to the north, at point where
less imposing streets broke in from
the west and south.
Stop at this corner" said the girl.
Orme threw on the brakes.
I'VE are in Evanston, on the Sheri-
dan road" she said, land this street
cutting in from the south is Chicago

"'Chi. Al" exclaimed Orme.
She had taken the paper from the
pocket of her coat. and was scan.
ming 1t closely. "One hundred PAGES

Orme jumped TO the ground. He
noticed that the university grounds
we're cut off from the street by an
ron fence. There was gate at the
corner by which they had stopped.
The gate was not closed. II it were
customary to shut 1t at night, there
had been some neglect on this partic-
ular evening.

said.
Where is it?"
81 left 1t around the corner. The
thought came to me that Mr.. Poritol
might be here, and l didn't wish him
to recognize it,"
Orme thought of the hard quest
the girl haG followed that day-bat-
thing for her fathers interests. What
kind of a man could that father be
to let his daughter thus go into diff
culties alone? But she had said that
her father was unable to leave the
house. Probably he did not know how
serious the adventure might be. Or
was the loss of the papers so desper-
ate that even a daughter must run
risks?
Together they went out to the
street. Orme caught dubious glance
from the clerk, as they passed
through the lobby, and he resented
it. Surely anyone could see
The girl led the way around the
corner into side street. There stood
the car. He helped her in and with
out a word saw that she was restfully
and comfortably placed in the seat
next to the chauffeur's. She did not
resist the implication of his mastery.
He cranked up, leaped to the seat
beside her, and took the levers.
(Which way, Grip" he asked.
North" she answered.
The big car swung out in the Lake
Shore Drive and turned in the direc-
ton of Lincoln park.

OUTFIELDERS ARE
SCARCE TODAY

Although 1t takes four men to make
an infleld and only three for an out
field, there are more good infelds than
outaelds. It seems to be easier to and
inf1elders who as group measure up
to the standard than to find three such
outfielders on one stub. True, the in
fields have more chances to show what
they can do, but the fine work in the
outfield, such as throwing and cutting
off long hits, doesn't appear even re-
latively as often as fancy-infield work.
There are only three infields in the
big lea gues which for ground covering,
throwing and speed in getting after
long hits rate up to Al grade. These
are the Detroit, Chicago National and
Pittsburg outfields. Clarke, Leach and
Wilson are three sweet gardeners.
Hoffman, Schultz and Sheckard are an
outfieId hard to improve on while Cobb
and Crawford are plpinA, with either
Mcintyre or Jones in left classy
enough to fit in nicely. Lewis. Hooper
and Speaker of the Red Sox make a
pretty nice outfeld and one likely to
get better.
One OF the best infields in the com
try Is that of the Athletics--Davis,
Collins, Barry and Baker. 1t can hit,
run bases, and on defensive work Is
nearly all right. 80 ~
