THlRTETH EPISODE
BEHIND THE WATER DOOR.

Del Mar made his way cautiously
along the bank of little river at the
mouth of which he left the boat, after
escaping from the little steamer.
Quite evidently he was worried by
the failure to cut the great Atlantic
cable, and he was eager to see wheth-
er any leak had occurred in the or
genization which, as secret foreign
agent, he had SO carefully built up in
America.
As he skirted the shore of the
river, he came to falls. Here he
moved even more cautiously than be-
fore, looking about to make certain
that no one had followed him.
1t was a beautiful sheet Of water
that tumbled with roar over the
ledge of rock, then raced away swift
ly to the sea in cloud Of spray.
Assured that he was alone, he ap-
preached a crevice in the rocks, near
the falls. With another hasty look
about, he reached in and pulled a
lover.
Instantly most marvellous change
took place, incredible almost beyond
belief. The volume of water that came
over the falls actually and rapidly de-
creased until it almost stopped, drip
ping slowly In a thin veil. There was
the entrance Of a cave-literally hid
den behind the falls!
Del Mar walked in. Inside was the
entrance to another, inner cave. high
or up in the sheer stone of the wall
that the waters had eroded. From the
floor to this entrance led q ladder.
Del Mar climbed 1t, then stopped just
inside the entrance to the inner cave.
For q moment he paused. Then he
pressed another lever. Almost imme-
diately the thin trickle of water grew
until at last the roaring falls complete
ly covered the cave entrance. 1t was
q clever concealment. contrived by
danming the river above and arrang-
ing q new outlet controlled by food
gates.
There Del Mar stood, in the inner
cave. A man sat at table. q curious
gear fastened over his head and cover
ing. his ears Before him was huge
apparatus from which flared q big
bluish-green spark, swapping and
cracking above the thunder OF the
waters. From the apparatus ran
wires apparently up through cables
that penetrated the rocky roof OF the
cavern and the river above.
It was Del Mars secret wireless
station, close to the hidden submarine
harbor which had been established be-
meath the innocent rocks OF the prom
ontory up the coast. Far overhead.
ON the cliff over the falls. were the
antennae Of the wireless.
How is she working?" asked Del
Mar.

Lehigh won from Catholic University
last year by small margin after a rather
poorly played game in which there was
much hard hitting. The Brooklanders
will bend their efforts toward avenging
the defeat and they figure they will have
a fair chance to do so, as they have the
advantage of two games already played,
while this will open the season for the

the best pitcher in local high school
ranks. is doing some splendid work for
Lafayette this spring against the south

stay Of the squad in the contests in the
two Carolinas and little fault could be
found with his work. The last game in
which he played was that with the Vir-
ginia Military Institute and he allowed
something like four hits and won easily
He let two other colleges down with
minimum Of safe wallops and in a game
with the Baltimore Federal League club
was hit safely only seven times
Along with Holden on the Lafay yette
nine is Kendall Myers, who is again
playing first base and doing splendidly.
In fact, Myers has been rated for two
years among the very best college first
basemen in the country.
Catholic University is to meet the Uni

town will probably not win, but the
Brooklanders ought to have at least an

Three big college base ball games
are scheduled to be played in and
around Washington tomorrow. George
town University is booked to meet
Yale, Catholic University will face Le-
high, and the Maryland Aggies will
have Cornell as their opponent.
Each Of the three southern schools
should have the advantage of more
outdoor practice on their opponents,
though the northerners will make up
for that probably in their long work
outs during the winter in the cage.
None of the local schools has better
than an even chance to win. and it Is
questionable if two have that. George
town is likely to be against a pretty
strong proposition in Yale. and Catho-
lie University will not have an easy
time winning from Lehigh. The Mary
land Aggies will be against one of the
big northern institutions for the first
time in their history, and what the
outcome of this contest will be Is prob
lematical. though everything would
appear to favor the 1thacans.
