At the age of nineteen she united

at Livingston and ever remained Il
member Of the congregation at that

Warm Battle Coming.

All loyal members of the Chamber Of
Commerce are expected to root and root
hard for their team, which will line up
against the Knights of Columbus team
ct American League Park Saturday June
1, in the interest Of the Fairgrounds
movement in Washington.
And they won't root in vain" said
Phil King this morning. in discussing
the prospects for victory. Mr.. King
is the famou Princeton base ball star.
Mr.. King is credited Will, knowing all
the dope on local players that could
possibly be collected in one Uranium.
He has, it is said. profted by this
knowledge to the extent of organizing a
very strong base ball team to perform
under the Chamber Of Commerce banner
for this season. He is confident OF a
victory over the Knights of Columbus
aggregation.
Mana ger James A. OiSlea OF the knight
of Columbus team, OF course cannot see
anything but victory for his team. Mr.
O'Shea divides his time between his busi-
ness and amateur base ball. He Is presi-
dent of the CAPITAL City League, and is
looked upon as an expert In base ball
lore. His Judgment of and experience
with local players make him specially
fitted to organize a team. In the pres
ent instance Mr.. O'Shea is said to have
been specially successful.

GE0RGET0wN,s FINAL GAMES.
Team Starts for Vermont Tonight
and Tackles Fordham Monday

Inc Georgetown University base ball
team made it's final appearance for the
year on local field yesterday afternoon
when it matched up against the Chamber
Of Commerce nine for a practice skirmish
on the heights. No score was kept Of
the hostilities, but despite the absence
of tally keeper the men all worked
seriously and an hour and a half of
good sport was in evidence.
Today the Hilltoppers left for New York
whence they go this evening to Burling-
ton, VT, where tomorrow afternoon they
are scheduled to play against the speedy
aggregation OF ball tosSerS representing
the University of Vermont. On account

believed that this handicap will work any
material harm, as the outfield has been
well bolstered up with substitutes during
the past week.
Balzer will probably start the slab work,
with Feenan catching. O'Connor at first,
Cogan at short and Sitterding at third
will be in their regular positions. wGi.e
Gibson has sufficiently recovered from
his illness TO cover the keystone corner.
Menefee will be used in right field, Gay

Feenan received Slight injury while
working out yesterday, his thumb being
touched by foul tip. For few minutes
it was believed that he was hurt too badly
to continue playing, but this proved AZ
error. Unless the split becomes sorer to-
morrow, it should not trouble him a great
deal in his playing against the Vermonts
The team will get back to New York

CHAPTER X.-Cintinued.

Walsh's tone forbade inquiry. He had
opened a door into some dark chamber
Of his past, then closed it tight and shot
the bolt back into place. He rose, cium-
silly and lumberingiy. and dropped his
cigar into an ash tray. The long. blank
surface of his bald head wrinkled as his
brows lifted, and his. eyes widened as
though fixed on a horizon against which
he had glimpsed the familiar outlines OF
some wave-washeu and hopeless argosy.
By common impulse the men clasped
hands silently.

Blair, in the doorway. With all the
trouble there is about getting men.

shall punish you for this, Mr.. Walsh, by
making you take me in to supper"
The guests were being served in the
servatory adjoining. Mrs. Blair conveyed
Walsh to a corner. where Mrs. Craighill
was seated at table with the solidest
bank president Of the greater city. This
person was. however. slightly deaf, and
as Mrs Blair rose frequently, in her office
Of hostess to assure herself of the COM
fort Of the others who were straying in
for supper. Walsh found opportunity for
speech with Mrs. Craighill, whom he had
observed only passingly in the drawing
room.
This is the most hospitable place!
Every one is SO very kind" murmured
Mrs. Craishill.
II suppose so'' replied Walsh, his
glance falling upon Roger Craighill who
was relating an anecdote to a circle of
rapt listeners near by. The financier was
intent upon his salad. and Mrs. Craighill
gave her whole attention to Walsh.
"Col Craighill has told me great deal
about you. Mr. Walsh. Let me see what
1t was that he said-you know how SPLEEN
didly he puts everything-he said. Mr..
Walsh is a born trustee; you can trust
him with anything.
"Those are strong words" said Walsh,
meeting her gaze quietly.

feels that it's credit to him. / suppose
it's like the pride the colleges take in q

Here obviously was an opportunity for
Walsh to follow her line Of thought ard
speak in praise of his alma mater; but he
switched the subject abruptly.
You arc stranger here, Mrs. Craig
hill?''
Ives, was. But I'm beginning to feel
at home already. 1 suppose it will take
me years to learn everything about this

time I have ever crossed a threshold in
this town"

He looked at her so fixedly that she
shrugged her shoulders and turned away.
This might be the privilege OF an old
friend of her husband. but his words fell
harshly. as from lips unused 70 gracious
speech. Very likely re was an eccentric
character, who. from his own statement,
was ignorant ot social usage. His keen
scrutiny made Mrs. Craighil uncomfort-
able for moment.
NOW that you have seen me, Mr..
Walsh, please tell me your verdict; spare
nothing!"
II think said Walsh bluntiy, that
you are much nicer than I expected"
He was trying to take lump OF sugar
for his coffee with the tongs. but his
hand shook.

You are smoking too much--that's the an

by this evidence Of weakness. for his
nerves were usually steady. and he was
vexed to be obliged to accept her help.

1T was Wayne. I think
"Oh. yes; Wayne" repeated Walsh as
though recalling the name with difficulty.

akin to tenderness just now in the face
OF this curious man.

of the matches were interesting they
were not very fast, as the ball did not

players had hard work Judging it.
All things considered. very good prog

that the tournament will be concluded by

BY defeating the 1880 Company yesterday
