Chicago, July 20. Excited trading in
wheat and corn resulted here from the
news of the sinking of Italian war YES
sells in the Dardanelles and the closing

the Black sea ports of Russia and other
countries meant the stoppage of one

Wheat prices jumped as much as ? 3S

OF course. were absolutely non-par-

the troubles of Newark and Jersey
City were nothing to them. Before the
game was half an inning old, however,
they had become rabid bugs" and
were abusing each other in the glori-
GUS fashion that only lovers Of the
game can know. Solano became an
ardent admirer of the Jersey City
club; Brockett allied himself with
Newark, and each cast virulent asper-
sion on the others judgment, opinions
and personality.
Newark, to the intense delight of
Harry Brockett, drew ahead and won
out, while Solano, after declaring that
his friend was a base-born idiot, that
the umpires were a porch-climber and
a door-mat thief, respectively, and that
the Jersey City manager was solid
stone above the shoulders, Gained
down, smote a fat man two rows
ahead Of him with a bag of peanuts,
and looked i%nnocently at the setting
western sun. Then the boys, vastly
refreshed and cheered by the after
Moons diversion, mingled with the
outgoing myriads. AS they poured
across the field in the ruck, they
crossed the track of the Newark play
ers, bearing their bats triumphantly
away. A gray-sleeved arm reached

out from the group Of victors and
caught Brockett by the shoulder. The
boy turned and looked into the grim,
weather-beaten face of Iron Man Joe
McGinnity.
You're young Brockett, the college
slugger, aren't you?" growled the
Iron Man, in what he meant for an
amiable and conciliatory tone. "Uh
huh. I thought so. You see, son, l
don't often forget faces, specially when
they belong to kids who did what you
did to my pitching two years ago. l
rather expected you'd take up the
game when you left college,"
Scores of curious fans were staring
at the Iron Man and the boys. The
grating voice of Joe McGinnity car
ried a long distance, and If there was
anyone within twenty yards who
hadn't heard him that person must
have been stone deaf from childhood.
Brockett, ervo and ag1tated at this
loud announcement of his name, yet
secretly pleased at the patronage Of
the great old warrior, flushed and
stammered, while Solano's ayes be-
spoke chagrin and apprehension.
Tell you something, Brockett," the
Iron Man went on, II know a ball
player when l see one, and If you want
to take up the game you don't have
to start with any Glass 2 leagues. I'll
take you on tomorrow, If you want.
Come see me in Newark during the
day, will you?"
Solano's eyes telegraphed a mes
sage, and Brockett understood. Speak
ing in a voice loud enough to be
heard halfway to the grandstand, he
answered: Yes. Two o'clock be all
right? I'll be there" and then, shak-
ing the Iron Mans hand, retreated
once mor to the shelter of the crowd.
Annoying luck, that" remarked
Solano. IF anyone was hunting us in
that ball park it's a certainty that MI.
McGinnity tipped us off in grand style.
You made the proper play, though, by
making an appointment-which we
will be unable to keep. It may lead
som one of our faithful followers
astray."
Baseball luck is a queer thing"
said Brockett, half angrily. Il was
lucky enough to hit McGinnity for
two singles and a three-bagger the
afternoon we played the Newark team
and he didn't forget it. If he had
struck me out three times he'd never
have remembered me. l wish he had
famed me three trips on nine pitched
balls"
The youngsters wandered around
Jersey City for a brief period, doub-
ling on their tracks several times.
They glanced behind and around them

discover any trailers or pursuers, but
a vague n Of worry and uneasi-
ness, an indeinable dread, seemed to
be uppermost in their minds. Finally,
when it had grown amply dark. they
hurried to the row of ferries that
fringe the shore of the North river,
and slipped aboard in the swarm of
Jerseyites seeking Manhattan for their
evenings pleasure.
AS the boys trailed along in the
crowd which flocked to the front of
the boat as 1t approached the eastern
side, Brockett imagined that he felt
a hand touch lightly against his left
hip, or In his pocket. He turned in
stantly, but could not detect the prob
able p~ickpocket in the jostling crowd.
T%hrushing his hand In his coat pocket
he felt the outlines of an envelope, and
clutched it tightly. A moment later
he stepped ashore and walked rapidly
away.
I've something with me that 1
didn't have when we went on the
ferry" spoke Brockett in an under
tone, continuing to pace along.
whats that? An enlightened in

drew out the envelope, noted that it
was innocent of address or mark of
any kind. and returned it to his
pocket.

lazfness.

Persons may share the common
complaint of laziness without any ap-
probation Of how far it is responsible
for the saddest cases Of mental and
moral disintegration. Laziness Is real
ly the key to a large share of what
passes for lack Of balance and perhaps
for insanity. It takes hold in the
schoolroom where pupils slight the
work they most need because they
like 1t least. Having shirked the
studies which would have done most
to balance their m%entalities, they pro-
coed to emphasize this ~lopsidedness
by refraining from every line Of en-
deavor which is not to their liking.
They find a hundred excuses for do.
ing so, but nearly always their excuses
are not reasons. They do only what
they like until finally they do not like
doing that. Then they drift and re-
greet that the ravens of today are not
as active in their charities as In the
days of Elijah.

Ramon, and they walked sturdily
across town till the kiosks of a sub
way station met their view. AS they
descended the stairs the clangor of an
approaching train was heard. Putting
on a burst of speed they scurried for
ward, slapped their coins upon the
ticket-window, and leaped upon a car
without the fraction of a second to
spare.
Once seated and their breath recov-
cred, they bent over the strangely de-
livered letter. Inside the envelope
was n small sheet of %note-paper.
and across the sheet was written, in
Brockett's own cipher:
