 Louis looked at Chateau Ranaud scornfully as he said:

 It is impossible to form any idea of the involuntary feeling of terror which came over the spectators as they looked at Chateau-Renaud. young, rich hand some, fashionably dressed, who believed. few hours before, that he had many long years to live and who now stood with the dew of anguish on his brow and terror in his heart. feeling that his last hour had come.
 The signal was given. the men fired. Chateau Renaud lay stretched upon the ground with a bullet through his fore- head. Lucien was untouched.
 My poor brother My poor brotherr' he sobbed as if his heart would break these were the first tears he had shed for Louis.

Like a true corscan she said. "Go" The day after his arrival in Paris, Lucien sent chal- lenge to Chateau Renaud. The challenge was accepted.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Aug. s..
You would think that the atm

Olympic committee as the best in
the country would be men who
had never known a days illness,
but at least a score of the team
took athletics to save them
from untimely graves.
William Hayward, physical di-

American wrestlers who were
training for the events, and no
more strenuous exercise than
wrestling exists.
And as youth of rs years ago
Hayward was given up as incur
able.
John Paul Jones, holder of the

AIS 2-5 seconds, took to ath-
letics to regain his health. He
was delicate when Jerry Moakley,

did speeiment of young manhood,
with lungs like bellows and the
slow. perfect beating heart of
the OK.
Louis Scott, the wonderful dis
lance runner, who has run 10
miles in SO minutes and IL miles
inside the hour saved himself
from an early grave by running.
Scott worked in an upholstery
shop until doctors told him he
might as well die at home as at
his work; anyway he had not
long to live.
Egon Erickson. the gigantic
New York policeman. took to
athletics to prevent an early de-
cline. He weighed but 90
pounds although standing over
six feet, when he took up run
ming, at the request OF, a friend.
1t required argument to induce
the long-shanked boy to get into
running clothes, because of his
thinness.
Today Erickson is one of the
worlds best high jumpers. He is
also a good all-round athlete, and
although case on slender lines,
his heart and lungs are tremen-
dous and his muscles are like
spring steel.

have found a cure-all in athletics

PORTLAND, Aug. S.-With
Bloomfield for Portland and
Meikle for Tacoma pitching IN
excellent form, fans here saw a
most exciting game which was
won in the seventh when a hit,
an error, passed ball and the
squeeze play obtained the only
run of the game.
Bloomfield struck out six men
and allowed but four hits, while
Meikle, who was trifle steadier,
allowed seven hits and struck out
four. Steadier support for Meikle
would have won him the game.
Ralph Churchill, the lanky
Spokane lad, with a record Of 81
strike outs in a game, has joined
the Tigers and will pitch today
