He brought it back broken into two

Then, speeding up the machine, we

We were safe. But, looking at the
pieces Of the statue. l wondered how
Nikolai proposed to sell them to Es-
sayan.
Il shall not sell them to Essayan;
I shall sell them in London to his
agent Berg" Nikolai explained to me
on the following day. as we sat to-
gether in our Boston lodgings.
But Berg is an art expert; you
can't deceive Berg" l exclaimed.
Berg knows all the statues which he
has purchased for Essayan. You can't
sell him the same again"
Nikolai laughed. MY dear Sum-

After waiting till evening, to assure
himself that he would not be dis

Cautiously he explored the cham

house by means of an unlocked door
Clearly the banker did not apprehend
attack from within; and for the safety
of his house he trusted his watchman.

MACK TO KEEP TEAM INTACT
Wise Old Leader of Philadelphia Will
Depend on His Veterans to Play
Better This Year

Of all the American league man.
ayers, Connie Mack probably will be
the only one this season to line up
the same team that came through for
him last season.
The wise old Philadelphia leader
will stand pat with his veterans. Mack
last season had a great team and ex-
poets to have this same team play
better ball this season.
1t is needless to say anything about
the playing ability of the Athletics
infleld. Everybody is willing to con-
cede that 1t is the greatest in the
country. None of the stars of Con-
nie's million-dollar infield appears to
be slipping back. Instead, they are
putting up more brilliant game.
