Jim and Florence had made their de.

For a moment the countess suspected

The man took a letter from his
pocket and handed it to Olga, saying:
Give this to your father. He knows
how to read it."
Before she could reply the man had
turned and was hurrying away.
Olga opened the note, her heart
beating furiously. 1t was utterly

bowed and approached. She slipped
the letter into his hand and whis-

meant for H~argreave."
Hes alive?"
Positively"
Very WELL" The waiter bowed and
strolled away nonchalantly.
Braine was in Boston over night,
otherwise the countess would have
taken the mysterious note at once to
him. She remained for perhaps q
quarter of an hour longer and then left
the garden. She would have taken the
letter to her own apartment but for
the fact that the chemicals needed
were hidden in the cave.
Now it happened that Florence went

man with a bundle under his arm.
The sun struck his profile and limned

cry. The man had not observed her.
So, very quietly, she slipped from the

achieved by Neyland in the pitchers

Marquard's world record. However
his record is even more remarkable
than the Rube's. as it extends over

is not only n wonderful pitcher, but he
is the champion heavyweight boxer of

When interviewed today, Bob was
asked If he had any thoughts of be-
coming a professional ball player.

ever think of turning professional
would be on a long-term contract.
