ALLEN Defeated
/ MVls0TlH|GH


In the game Of football on Allen
Academy's grounds Saturday after
noon the Navasota high school was
kwamped by the Allen Academy team
BY the score Of 81 to Q. The academy
boys scored eighteen touchdowns. but
kicked only four goals. The high
school boys were helplessly outclassed
BY faster. heavier and much older
men. and the game was early turned
into farce by the Aliens. who scored
two touchdowns within the first six
minutes OF play. The Navasota boys.
however. were not lacking In grit and
at times they played good defensive
game. They only made one first
down during the entire game. their
offensive plays being smashed almost
before they started. The playing Of
McGinty and Perry on the ends for
the high school deserves especial
mention.
Very little can be said about the
teamwork OF the academy boys or
their showing. a. they were given III.
tie chance to display any special tai
ent or to do any spectacular work.
II was an easy game from the start
and Coach Firth changed the men M
rapidly a. he could. every member Of
his squad being given 4 chance dur
Ing the game.
The kicking Of the academy boys IL
woefully weak. this being shown from
the fact that only four goals were
kicked out OF eighteen attempts.
The manager Is preparing good
schedule for the academy team and
according TO report they have a stifi
schedule ahead Of them. The Thanks.

against the Deaf and Dumb Institute

"Alan!" he shrieked at the top of
his lungs. ALAN! Give hail to tell
us you're safe!"
There was a little pause; he was
racking his brains for some more NOV
ing mode Of appeal when the answer
came in another voice-in the voice
of Judith Urine, clear, musical, effer>
vescent with sardonic humor:
BE at peace, little one-bleat no
more! Mr. Law is with us-and safe
oh, quite, quite safe!"
In dumb CONSERVATION Barcus
sought the countenance of Rose. Her
eyes, meeting his, were blank with
despair. He shook his head helplessly
and let his hands dangle idly between
his knees.
With no way on her, the lifeboat
drifted with current of unknown set
and strength.
What can we do?" Rose implored.
1--WE must do something. We can't
leave him Oh, when | think
OF him there, in her hands, could go
mad!"
IF only l knew" Barcus protested;
"but my hands are tied, my wits are
as helpless as my eyes are blind
There's nothing to go by-except the
bare possibility that the reef she
spoke of may be Norton's. 1t doesn't
seem possible, but we may have made
that much soHthing. In that case
we're about three miles off the main,
land, somewhere In the neighborhooG
of katama island, little, rocky, desc

by fishermen"
The girl wrung her hands. But
how could Judith get there-and with
her men-and ammunition?"

rience with the lady, I'd be willing to
bet that she was picked up by the
steamer that ran us down, and pro.
| ceeded to make a prize of it-or try
to. One things certain-she must
have found or stolen a boat from
somebody; they couldn't have made

from some sort Of civilization; even
If it's an island there are no desert

thing soon enough, no fear"
BY tacit consent both avoided men
ton of Alan, but each knew what
thought was uppermost in the others
mind.
There's a niche among the rocks
up here" Barcus indicated, almost
cave. You'll be warm and dry enough,
and secure from observation overhead.
Maybe you can even snatch few
winks of sleep. ;"
She negatived that suggestion with
weary smile: no sleep for her until
sheer exhaustion overpowered her, or
she knew of Alan's fate.
And so, Feiterating his promise to
be gone no longer than absolutely
might be needful, he left her there.

picked up, stole a boat, and piled it
up on the reef"
"And there's no hope-!"
"Only of the fog relenting. If We
could make the mainland and get

His accents died away into a discon-
solate silence that was unbroken for
upwards of an hour.
So slowly the current bore the life
boat toward the beach and so still
the tide that Barcus never appreciated
they were within touch of any land
until the bows grounded with slight
jar and grating sound.
With a cry of incredulity he leaped
to his feet = Land, by all that's
lucky!"-and STOPPING, lent hand to
the girl, aiding her to rise.
Hardly had Rose had time to COM
prehend what had happened, when
Barcus was over the side and wres-
Ting with the bows, dragging the boat
farther upon the shoals.
She was, however, more than one
man could manage; and when her
stem had bitten little more deeply
into the sands, Barcus gave over the
attempt and, lifting Rose down, set
her on dry land, then climbed back into
the vessel, rummaged out her anchor
and cable, and carried them ashore,
planting the former well up towards
the foot of the cliff.
And as he rose from this last labor
he was half blinded by the glare of the
westering sun as it broke through the
fog.
In less than five minutes the miracu-
lous commonplace was an accom-
plished fact; the wind had rolled the
fog back like scroll and sent it spin
ming far out to sea, while the shore
on which the two had landed was
deluged with sunlight, bright and
beautifully warm.
He showed thoughtful and consid-
crate countenance to the girl.
You're about all in?"
She nodded confirmation of this,
which was no more than simple truth.
Where are WEI" she added.
He made her party to his own per-
plexity.

sued. do you mind being left alone

This accomplished, the men turned
attention to Rose, flashing her In SINH

Standing just above the water-lines
with every sign of complete calm and
sanity other than that ominous flicker
ing in her eyes, Judith superintendent
the business till its conclusion, then
waved the men away
Quietly, like well-trained servants.
they turned their backs and marched
off.
And again, after brief wait, the
woman laughed her short and mirtha
less laugh.
"Tbe tide will he HIGH" she said
precisely at sunset You may time
your lives by that. Whe2 the sun dips
into the sea, then will your lives go
down with it."
She turned on her heel and strobe
swiftly away, with not so much as a
backward glance, overlook her men,
and passed quickly from sight around
the farther point of rocks.
For some time Barcus struggled
vainly with his bonds. AS for Roses
she wasted no strength in struggling
perhaps had none to waste. When he
looked her way he saw her exquisite
profile unmarried by any line of fear or
! doubt, sharply relieved against the
darkness of the rising flood Her level
