sensitive animal gave leap, broke from her
grasp and dashed down the mountainside.
1t was a valuable horse, and, as has been
said, not Mrs. Steele's own, and the occasion
certainly justified vexation. But it was no
sane and warranted exhibition of anger, but
the demoniac rage of one afflicted with
terrible infrmity, that seized upon this beau

Then something stronger than passion
came to succor her-some invisible messen-

1t seemed as if it drove forth the evil from
her as Christ scourged the money changers
from the temple. But the struggle was too
terrible. She could not it seemed, conquer
alone. Desperately she cast about her for

misty blue day when the distant noun

scribable benevolence, and the odor from the
wild shrubs filled the air with fragrance.
Sometimes hawk swooped above us; once an
eagle sailed along; the wild creatures of the

with exquisite soft buffetings in our faces.

moments, as 1 rode beside Madeline Steele,

In their half of the seventh, the Christians
failed to score. Wasn't it fourteen to six,
and out of their six the Jews had not earned
run? The Jews faced the Christians He
brew pitcher for their half of the seventh.
The first two to the bat made scratchy hits,
the third got base on balls, the fourth
made a two-bagger, and what with errors
and overthrows from the Christian sleepers
in the field, four runs were scored and it
stood fourteen to ten. Things repeated
themselves, and the bases were again filled.
But then the Hebrew ally of the Christians
struck out the next two men in six pitched
balls. The tenth Jew to go to the bat was
little red headed Hester-st. lad.
This diminutive specimen was what a
bystander called the Yom Kippur Short
stop; but, in spite of his short arms and
legs, the little chap felded his position in
fine shape. Carrots, his friends called at
The din was something appalling. Now,
Carrots had been numerous times at the
bat and so far had merely famed the air,
not even connecting for foul tip with the
ball. AS he stepped to the plate some one
handed him another bat, this one so large
that as he rested it on the ground the handle
swept his nose. The racket was earsplitting.
The pitcher swung in one ball, and Carrots
never even saw it pass him. Then the
pitcher took pity on the little chap and
tossed him an easy one. But Carrots
swung his bat viciously this time and, re-
markable, uncanny even, he connected with
the sphere and out it sailed into space
toward Mosholu Parkway two miles off.
The three Christian outhelders raced after
the ball. The boomerang from the hit laid
little Carrots out fiat; so much so that he
did not know what he had done. But those
Jew rooters were there, and they yelled at
him to run. Carrots picked himself up and
off his little legs went, the mob following in
a bunch, yelling like demons. The three
other Jews were home by the time Carrots
had reached second. But the ball could not
be found and Carrots tottered across the
home plate, mouth open, hair flying, and
fell into the arms of his adoring Hester-st
comrades, the hero of the day. The next
Jew struck out, and the score was tie,
inning made off those sleepy Christians!
The eighth inning found the Gentiles so
demoralized and the Hebrews playing such
snappy ball that the former went out in
one-two-t three order. The first two Jews in
their half went out on strikes, and the third,
their best hitter, popped an easy fly which
the Christian second baSeman allowed to
60 through his hands as if they were made of
butter, then overthrow to first, and what
with other errors and fumbles the Jew came
home, scoring what proved to be the win
ming run. The next Jew up struck out.
A storm that had been gathering all after
noon broke furiously and everyone ran to
cover. The umpire, Christian, waited the
prescribed time under the rules, when
the field was like lake, and called the game
at the end of the eighth inning in favor of
the Hester-st. players, fifteen to fourteen.

Of all the games played in this park, base

thusiastic, and at no game is there so much
racket and excitement as over match be-

At this point the Jews struck out in one,
two, three order and the Christians rooted
themselves hoarse. The diamond was roped
off on both sides, and lining the ropes were
the rooters. In this instance the Jews were
much better organized than the Christians.
At least hundred small ones, lined up under
two more able-bodied leaders, sang their

Christian rooterS were more Supine. Su-
premely confident of their superiority, they
were lying back in the grass looking at

that the Jewish rooters were nerving their
nine up to renewed efforts, while the Chris

result that, tired out by early efforts, they
had fallen asleep in the grass.
At the close of the sixth inning the score
stood fourteen to six in favor of the Chris

but the Jewish rooters were still at it, al
