Grooved Ball Hurt Bobby

These two run producing drives were sufficient to give the Turtles a victory, although they added another tally in the seventh through Howard Merritt's unex- pected single. Robertson seemed to have the Tupelo lads number as he had struck him out on his two previous trips to the plate, but he got careless and Lefty took advantage of the opportunity and placed a single into center field. which scored DunclSel. In fact, with the oxcep- ton of Mullen's drive, which he hit off lis chin, al of the hits made by the Tur- ties were made on balls that Robertson grooved.
 Dolly Stark's work in the field again featured the contest. the local shortstop accepting 10 chances without an error, his play on Carrolls grounder being es- pecally good.
 Howard Merritt pitched in great form. the five hits registered by the Barons be- ing scattered, only two of them coming in one inning. In the eighth Frame.

'What of it," challenged Cyrus.
"And you want baby. Oh, I
know! I'm with the society. Got
a good deal to say as to who gets
the kids-see? Now, I'll tell you.
Tip me dollar and I'll see that you'll
have the choice of a lot of the hand
soonest ones we've had in long
time"
The bargain was struck. About 10
O'Clock the next morning Cyrus ran
hastily from the woodshed where he
was piling up fuel, as a scream
echoed out from the front porch.
There was his wife IN a flutter of
mingled excitement and delight,
standing over a neat baby carriage
which held pretty, smiling little girl
about year old.
"Oh, Cyrus!" gasped ms. Mum.
look, just look! The loveHest little
one! And baby carriage, nursing
bottle and all!''
They took the little one into the
house. In an hour it was topsey-
turvey. There was no room too good
for their charming little visitor. They
lowered over the new conner, plan
ming ahead for its welfare clear up to
school days, girlhood and marriage.
The next day Mrs. Mum neglected
all customary household work and
Cyrus went down town and returned
with variety of rattles, toys and
general gimcracks supposed to be
amusing to infants. All the fond,
foolish pair thought of was the little
one, whom Mr.. Mum under her
breath fervently christened Edna"
Both were seated on the front
porch the next afternoon. When
Cyrus spoke, his anxious-eyed wife
would silence him with finger to her
lips and the whispered injunction.
"S-sh-baby is asleep"
Suddenly, however, Cyrus arose in
a startled fashion to his feet. Two
men had entered the yard from the

"This man has told the truth, then,
at last!'' said the policeman, tighten
ing his grip on his prisoner until old

when - who - what? Never"
cried Mrs. Mum, wildly, and she
rushed into the house and her hus-
band after her. ..
81 won't give it up--no one shall
take the dear child away from mel"
she sobbed and she threw herself be-
side the cradle of the little one and
spread her sheltering arms above it
Cyrus stood gazing at her ruefully.
He was keen enough to scent trouble,
mystery in the, visit of the policeman
and his prisoner. Cyrus conjectured
rightly when he suspected that Old
Peter had played some kind of trick
on him.
"You mustn't take it to heart,
Mary, if the child was never intended
for US"
Wasn't it left here, just as was
agreed?" challenged Mrs. Mum.
Haven't we adopted you, little
darling? Iron horses shan't tear you
from us!'
Cyrus, gazing oblquely through
the front screen door, saw the police
officer reappear.
"This is the house, ma'am," he
spoke and a frantic female figure,
tore past him, up the steps and drag
ged open the screen door.
Without ceremony she brushed
past Cyrus, so swiftly that he could
not catch distinct view of her face.
