CHAPTER XXI.
Lucille INDUCES a Feminine Instinct.


YUCILLE thrilled with inexpres-
sibe delight when she found
herself once more In San Fran
@ cisco, the place where last she
had seen her sweetheart. She i'm
ngined him rowing the city. using every
means In his power to find her She
knew he had led the assault upon
that house. and that not even the
secret exit made by the occupants
,o..u divert hlm from his purpose OF
Ha. her. But she had far better
h.uce than he with Loubeque. She
on.y caught herself hoping that the
International spy would return to bis
tu4.e.
Not for the cunning brain of such Il
one as the spy TO go back to place
from which he had been driven and
which he had every reason to believe
would be under surveillance. Instead
OF doing this he promptly took a
motor TO the st. Francis, relying upon
the very audacity Of his move to pro
tect him.
Lucille followed him quietly, almost
meekly. They had but little to say
to each other. Both knew the others
thoughts too well TO waste time In
words; both knew the others relent-
lessness of purpose. And, more than
anything and everything else, both
knew that the fight between them
must be settled very shortly, that any
move must be made quickly.
Lucille slipped out OF the hotel the
second day. undecided as to what to do
and caring little to plan or plot. For
always there was to be reckoned with
Thompson, who had turned against
his former master. Thompson was
the man upon whom she convinced
herself with feminine intuition she
must depend Thompson would lay
open a way. And the hate Of Thomp-
son would turn itself against the hate
Of Loubeque and then her own great
love would have Its innings.
And in this mood, for the first time
since leaving Manila so abruptly in
the aeroplane OF Harley, her thought
turned from the sweetheart she felt
was In the city to the thought Of meet
Ing him.
She stopped short, the song upon
her lips frozen there as she looked
down at herself For the first time
In months an idea recurred to her an
idea that seemed TO have formed d
major portion OF her ideas In life be
fore that time--clothes.
Clothes she fairly bushed as she
looked upon the beautifully dressed
women upon the street. Clothes! Why, |
she looked a perfect ragamuliin. She |
had become frtghtfully self conscious,
ascribing the glances of admiration be-
slowed upon her from pedestrians TO
her shabblness Unconsciously her
bands sought the precious necklace.
She speeded swiftly and furtiveiy
down the street. Self reliance had be
come part Of her from her expert.
ences. but the thought of obtaining
money was something that appalled,
her She had never known anything
Of money In her life.
ResOlutely she bit her lips and forced
her way through the doors OF jewel
ry establishment. lighting her resolu
tion to the point Of approaching the
bespectaclcd. important looking mar
behind the counter
II wish 10 SELL" she murmured bash
fully
The salesman stared from her to the
necklace. his eyes growing wider and
wider with bewilderment as he looked
upon such stones as he had never seen
before In his life. ---.--.-.-..

ROAD RACE CHANGED
Mai. Pullman Will Not Allow Athlete.
to Use Pennsylvania Avenue

The course for the Carroll Institut,
five-mile road race to be held here on

The reviewing stands along the ave-
nue. which were built for the G. A. X

Right on the Heels of
White Sox Are,Griffs
Just Two and One-half Games
Between the Locals and
Third Place.
OTHER SPORT GOSSIP
Chicago Club Does Not Look Impres
sive Despite Added Strength.
Gallia Pitches Today.

Only two and one-half games now
separate the Griffmen from the Chi
cago White Sox and third place. and
by pitching Bert Gallia today Griff ex-
poets to shorten the gap before the
sun sets.
/ 1t may have been because johnson
| was in the box and going strongly
that the Sox appeared to be badly out
classed. but some how or other the
Sox do not look anywhere near as
strong as they did early in the sea-
son.
Washington stands a fair chance to
beat out the Windy City crowd for
third place. and if Griff's pitchers con-
tinue to uncork the brand Of ball in
evidence the past month it Is a GER
tainty that the trick will be turned.
Urban Faber who toiled for Chi
cago yesterday is rated as the best
boxman on the club: yet he was bat
ted hard throughout. The claim that
Faber has been overworked may OBJ
tain; he did not look like the same
slabman who faced the local club
early in the year.
Yes. 1t appears very much as II the
White Sox would have their hands
full to finish the season where the
club stands today.
Carl SaNyer's comedy stuff on the
coaching lines is making a big hit
with the fans. His swimming and
high-dfving acts are legitimate, pro-
vidinE he keeps inside the coacher's
box. but those false ears and other
accoutrements with which he deco
rates his head will never be tolerated
by the umpires. Sawyer is funny
enough without a makeup. and bids
fair to enliven many an uninteresting
ball game in days to come.
1t is possible that Turner Barber
will replace Acosta in right field to-
day. but otherwise the batting order
will be the same as yesterday. Rebel
Russell will more than likely pitch
for Chicago.
Business Manager Sparrow, Of the
New York Yankees, announced last
night that in addition to the require
ment of young players already pur-
chased or drafted. the club had Sc
cured Pitcher BIodgett, a left-hander.
whose record with the Omaha Western
League club this year was twenty -one
victories and fifteen defeats; also
Shocker, a ight-handed pitcher, who
has made a good record with the OF
tawa club in the Canadian League
Sparrow denied the report that the
Yankees had drafted Ping Bodie, of
the San Francisco club, and White
man of Montreal
There's an underground rumor in
American League circles that before
next season Connie Mack will buy the
Shibes' half interest in the Athletics.
1t is understood that the Shibes have
grown tired of the losing venture in
Philadelphia due to the intentional
wrecking of the former worlds cham
pions, and are about ready to step
out. Mack owns so per cent of the
stock and is said to have plenty OF
financial backing. The Shibes have
been unpopular for some time, and
Mack Is said to be at loggerheads with
them. The other American League
men are awaiting developments with
much interest. They freely admit that
their business in Philadelphia has
dwindled to almost nothing.
