OSNY, the western secre-
tary Of the League Of Lost
Causes, was not in Paris.
Paul Lane could not find
him. The Leagues offices
were closed and abandon
ed, while on the window
was displayed a sign ad-
vertising that they were
for rental. The landlord
could give no information
as to Rosny's whereabouts.

NO" answered Paul. Il am need

The return ride seemed endless, the
road deserted save for an occasional
wayfarer or q belated automobile, APP
peared to stretch itself out eternally.
Yet the stars were still bright in the
sky when the black bulk OF the castle
suddenly doomed out from among the
foliage of the accomplishing trees. Paul
drew rein; he was trying to locate the
position of the stream which he had
formed; he was uncertain, too, wheth-
er he should turn his horse loose or
ride boldly through the besiegers.
Upon his meditation fell the sharp
challenge of . sentry.
Halt! Who goes there?"
1.-THE man sprang up almost from
beneath his feet. Paul had presence
of mind to reply:
Captain Won Houzrathi"
But you must give the countersign,
sir" the man protested. his bayonet
lowered indecisively. Paul mumbled
something and spurred his horse.
leaped past the soldier, saw the gate
open, and gailoped madIy along the
drive and into the main entrance of
the castle. He heard shots fired be-
hind him; then followed silence. No
one was in pursuit Of him. Doubtless
the besiegers felt sure enough of
their prey.
But in that hasty flight Paul had
noticed that there was an ominous
hustle and stir in the camp.
At the gate of the castle two of
the officers, to whom Paul had been
introduced, came running forward.

No more was said, but they contin-

Thurn stopped and looked at Paul
You have a sword?" he asked, and,
when Paul shook his head, he entered
the Emperor's ante-room and returned
bearing a blade of finest steel, set in
brass hilt. ''It is a plain weapon"
he said, and yet his highness found
1t serviceable in four campaigns

The hammering grew louder until
the din was tremendous. Evidently
oak beams were being brought into
play. Presently the sounds ceased !:

roar of dynamite. The gates rocked
and fell inward, and through the cloud
of mortar and marble dust figures OF

a TO victory that would have been
a shutout only for errors in the home

AMEN!

One of the best indications of the
class Of ball being presented around
the Three-I circuit, despite the poor
squad which President Tear
ney has afflicted US with, is the re
suits around the league yesterday.
Three shut out games and a double
header with both scores to /, is
somewhat of a showing.
The three leaders losing and the
tail-ender winning yesterday set the
Three-I race for the pennant at a point
where a matter of but eight games
separates the cellar champions from
the leaders. The situation thus arts
ing gives every city in the league a
chance TO dope out something favor
able as its outlook for the future, and
while it can hardly be said that eacn
has an equal chance to pull out at the
top, even quincy is in the running and
must be considered before any pre-.
dictions can be made. By sharing
games yesterday both Decatur and
Peoria advanced their percentages one
point, while Quincy cut the .146 point
lead between themselves and the TOP
by 20 points.-Peoria Herald-Trsn,

"TUBBY" HACKETT
HANDED RELEASE
Quincy Manager Is Cut Adrift-
Second Baseman Kahl to
Succeed Him.

"Tubby" Hackett, the genial and
rotund baby who had been directing
the destinies of the Quincy cellar ag-
gregation, has been handed his uncon-
ditional release, and Second Baseman
Nick Kahl has been showed up into
the manager notch. Hackett was
landed by the Quincy club last fail
after Babe Myers had given up the
team. He was a member of the catch
ing staff last year, but owing to an at
tack of rheumatism, was unable to do
much work At the end of the season
he journeyed to California in the hopes
that he might locate his lost condition,
but there was nothing doing. When
he arrived at Quincy this season he
had several pounds of excess beef, and
| has been unable to trim down to fight
ing shape. His throwing arm also
went to the bad. The Quincy direc-
tors believe that a playing manager
will be more effective, and hence the
change.
Kahl, the new manager, is veteran,
having started in professional baseball
! in 1902 with the Kansas City club
Since that time he has played with
Grand Rapids, Lyman, Colorado
! Springs, Cleveland and several other
clubs. In 1905 he was a member of the
Maps as utility infielder, subbing for
Lajoie in a number of games. At the
| end of the season he was released and
has since been playing minor league
ball. For the last two years he has
played third base, but this year vent
to second. While Hackett was undei
suspension, the team was in charge OF
Nick, and he handled, the players IL

STRONG NORTHERN BREEZE.

The Peoria and Davenport papers look
awfully good 90 grabbing the umpires.
Just now it appears as if Peoria is
trying TO pull a double play of the
"boner" variety by yelping to Tearney
about Knapp. If Al is wise he'll turn a
deaf ear and retain Knapp as long as
this noise is going on. Perhaps the
reason Knapp is disliked in Peoria
is that he isn't a fellow to boost
the Distillers' stock. That's a deep
one, but it goes a long ways in com,
plimenting the umpire as a type OF
the cleaner cut. And you can't say
that for all the arbiters in this league
even if they are the exception and
