Dusk was settling over stretches OF
purple land, and already the room was
peopled by shadows. Work was over:
there were sounds of cheerful prepare
tions for supper; from the house came
faint chords of laughter.

too"
Come, come, Slower, get your boys

Chaplin himself led Glass around
the house, while that gentleman made
no offer to explain the dream which
had prompted him to pack his suit
case before letting himself out of the
traln1ng-quarters. Once safely back
In the gymnasium. he sat up till
dawn, a prey to frightful visions
which the comfortable morning light
did not serve to dissipate.
Wally Speed slept serenely through
the whole disturbance, and was great
ly amused at the story when he
awoke. He was sorely tempted to
make known his agreement with
Skinner, and put an end to his train
er's agony of mind; but he recalled
SINNERS caution, and reflected that
the slightest indiscretion might pre-
cipitate tragedy. For the first time
since the beginning of the adventure
he was perfectly at ease, and the phe-
nomenon added to his trainers dis
may.
Others beside Lawrence Glass were
apprehensive. Culver Covington, for
instance, was plainly upset, while
Roberta Keap pleaded headache and
had her breakfast served in her room.
1t was shortly afterward that she
appeared in the gymnasium doorway,
and cried, in an accusing voice:

81 thousands of toes in Christendom
the one he had hung his salvation
upon had proven weaker than a reed.
What cruel jest of Fate was this? II
Fate had wished to break a toe why
had she not selected, out of all the bill
lions at her disposal, that of some
other athlete than Culver Covington-
even his own.
J. Wallingford Speed started sud-
denly and paled. He had remembered
that no one could force a crippled man
to run. --.
"By Jove," he exclaimed, "I'n do it,"
He crossed quickly to the bunk
house door and looked in. The room
was empty. The supper-ben pealed
out, and he heard the cow-men answe.
1t. Now was the appointed moment;
he might have no other. With cat-like
tread he slipped into the sleeping
quarters, returning in a moment with
. revolver. He stared thankfully at
the weapon-better this than dishonor.
why didn't think of 1t before?
It's perfectly simple. I'll accidentally
shoot myself-in the foot!"
But even as he gazed at the gun he
saw that the muzzle was as large as
q gopher-hole. A bullet of that size
would sink ship, he meditated in
panic, and as for his foot-what fright,
full execution it would work! Butt

race, under present conditions, so he
began to unlace his shoe. Then real.
izing the value of circumstantial evil
dence, he paused. MOI! His disability
must bear all the earmarks of an acct.
dent. He must guess the location of
his smallest and least important toe,
and trust the rest to his marksman-
ship. Visions of blood-poisoning be-
set him, and when he pressed the
muEzle against the point of his shoe
his hand shook with such palsy that
he feared he might miss. He steeled
himself with the thought that other
men had snuffed out life itself in this
manner, then sat down upon the floor
and cooked the weapon a second time.
He wondered If the shock might, by
any chance, numb him into uncon-
seriousness. If so. he might bleed to
death before assistance arrived. But
he had nothing to do with that. The
only question was, which foot. He re-
garded them both tenderly. They
were nice feet, and had done him
many favors. He loved every toe;
they were almost like innocent chill
dren. 1t was dastardly deed to take
advantage Of them thus, but--he ad-
vanced the revolver until it pressed
firmly against the outside of his left
foot, then closed his eyes, and called
upon his courage. There came
great roaring In his ears.
How long he. sat thus waiting for
the explosion he did not know, but
he opened his eyes at length to find
the foot still intact. and the muzzle

AS Fresno left, there approached,
in a surging group, the opposing side.
"Good-evenin', Gabby!" Slower

speaking distance. Here we come

watch upon their champion did not
relax.
It was some time after midnight
that Lawrence Glass had been the
cause OF wild alarm that brought
the denizens Of the ranch out in night
apparel. Jack Chaplin. awakened by
cry for help, had found him In the
hands Of Carara and Cloudy, who had
been doing night duty in accordance
with Stover's orders. What with the

In event Mobile and Atlanta conclude
the season with tie, Birminxham win
probably get an opportunity to see the
deadlock dissolved with a Anal battle ON
Rickwood Held. Both Atlanta and Mo-
bile are tied at present, each having
won 81 games and lost SO. But should
the Mobile club he prevented from
playing the final game with New Or
leans this AFTERNOON, or should a tic
result. President w. VI. Kavnnamgh Will
designate a neutral field upon which
one game must be played to settle the
deadlock.
If rain intervenes in Mobile this aft
ernoon or the two clubs battle to a
draw, the two clubs will be tied. Then
mingham to settle the dispute. The rule
states that in event of tie at the close
of the season the two clubs shall play
one game on a neutral field to settle the
claim.
IS Birminghma is the best baseball
town in the south there is little question
but that the deciding game would take
place at Rickwood Field. The stand at
Rickwood is the best in the Southern
league, and there is more enthusiasm in
Birmingham than at any other neutral
point.
The battle, which is possibility, would
draw fully 10000 fans in Birmingham.
Local officials state that the park will
be placed at the disposal of the two clubs
in case of tie. Should Atlanta and
Mobile play, it is believed that Mobile
would be a favorite over the Cracker
team
If Mobile defeats New Orleans this aft
ernoon it will capture the bunting by the
scant margin of half a game. In case
of a defeat at the hands of the tail end
Pelican club Mobile will forfeit It's claim
to the pennant by the same microscopic
margin. Mobile must win to land the
flag. Atlanta has played the last game
unless Mobile is prevented from battling
this afternoon.
Manager Cholly Frank will send Finis
Wilson, his star pitcher, against the
Gulls. Billy Campbell, who secured a
draw with Atlanta in the last series, will
probably pitch for Mobile.
