The prediction Of the officials and
members OF the north side business
mems baseball team that they would
badly trim the south siders in the sec
ond game Of the three-game series,
proved true Tuesday afternoon when
they defeated their opponents by the
score Of II to Z at the Ball Band park

The standing Is now one game for
each team. the south siders having
won the first game earlier in the sea-
son and the north siders the Tuesday
afternoon contest Tle third game

installed in his stead but the cross
river men continued to get in their
healthy swings regardless.
Three straight stTike-outs was the
discouraging start OF the south side
men, which was a hundred fold in
creased when the north siders picked
four runs in their first inning. An
error by WOcdka at short gave Brady,
the first man up, a safe station at first.
Two steals were made by him. Two
successive walks filled the bases.

poorly handled by Carnes in the throw
Martin dropped the last strike and be-
fore he could peg Book out at first,

LONDON. July 14.-Oficial an
nouncement by Lord Lansdowne 20
parliament that there are no more
than 1900 British soldiers i'm the
European war theater has given Eng
land the greatest shock it has received
since the disaster at the Dardanelles.
Another attack on the government
is anticipated as a result OF Lord
Lansdowne's statement that the Brit
ish forces consist Of p or % divi-
sions. On April 21. David Lloyd
George announced that the British
had Sc divisions at the front. The
governments opponents are expected
TO seize upon the discrepancy and de-
mand an explanation.
1t was a similar discrepancy in cab
met ministers statements as to war
munitions that formed the basis for
the recent attack upon Lord Kitchen
er and the conduct of the military es-
tablishment
The British public was astounded
by the Lansd0wne statement. Il had
supposed that more than 1000, 600
soldiers had been put in the field to
defend the French channel ports The
revelation by the cabinet minister has
caused a deep concern in view of the
German successes in the Arras region.

stretched out his hand and glanced at
the watch by the side of the bed. 4
was barely six o'clock He turned over
and dozed again. looked again at half
past six. and finally, at few minutes
to seven. rose and made a hasty
toilet. Then, in the act OF placing his
watch in his waistcoat pocket. he gave
a sudden start. BY its side, half Gov.
cred by the handkerchief which he had
thrown upon the little table, stood a
small black box! For a moment he
was motionless. Then he stretched out
his hand, removed the lid and drew
out the usual neatly folded piece of
paper:
Even time fights you. II loses that

Quest for a moment was puzzled
Then he hurried into the next tent,
where the professor was sleeping
peacefully.
Say, professor. what's the time by
your watch?" Quest asked. shaking
him gently.
The professor sat up and drew his
chronometer from under his pillow.
Seven o'clock he replied; five
minutes past, maybe"
Quest nodded.
That seems all right" he declared.

He hurried out into French's tent
and found the inspector just drawing
on his shoes.

manded.

They sat round the opening before
Lenora's tent till the moon was high in
the heavens. Quest, who had been on
the outside of the circle for some little
time, suddenly rose to his feet and
crossed over to the cook wagon. Long

glanced up little surlily.

The cowboys finished their breakfast
and went off to their work. Laura
stole out from her tent and started of
in rather a shamefaced manner for
walk. Presently Lenora opened her
eyes. She, too, stretched out her
hand for her watch. Suddenly she
sat up in bed with little exclamation.
On the table by her side was q small
black box. She took OF the lid with
trembling fingers, drew out a scrap
of paper and read.
Fools! Tongues Of flame will cross
Quests path. He will never reach the
depot alive.
Lenora glanced at Laura's empty
bed. Then she staggered to the open
ing of the tent.
Laura" she cried.
There was no one there. The cow
boys had all gone to their work, Laura
had passed out of sight across the
ridge in the distance. Lenora stag
gered to the cook wagon, where the
Chinese cook was sitting cleaning
plates.
"Listen!" she cried. "They are in

about the action.

Her eyes were soft and her voice
shook a little as she leaned towards
him. Something In his helplessness
had kindled the protective spirit in
her.
"Has life been SO terrible for your"
she whispered. Have you left be-
hind--but no! you never could have

towards Craig. He shrank back in his
place.

cried, 'fiercely, remember that they

Craig struggled to his feet. He made

the professors. The girl passed her
arm through his and dragged him into
the saloon. They passed Jose in the
doorway. He scoffed at them.
Say, the boss will fire you. Marta,

Marta drew the red rose from the

Almost at that moment they all

The professor held out piece OF

Craig he announced, "this Is
