Sir Michael as a Prophet.

Some three or four years ago Mike Dcnlins theatrical journeying took him to Nashville, Tenn. Mike ar rived in town the same day Michigan played Vanderbilt carly in the spring
 That morning Sir Michael was in vited out by Fielding Yost to see the best college ball player in the world The ex-Giant went out with Yost, feeling as all big leaguers do about the average college phenom. Mike received the shock of his life. After the game he turned to Yost with this remark: That fellow right now comes closer to being another Cobb than any player I ever saw. If they'll play him in the outfield he will soon be Tvs closest rival' The young collegian's name was Sisler. If

The Games Greatest.

Sir-Mike Kelly or Ty Cobb the greatest player that ever livedf Please let mo nominate Buck Ewing for this honor, for Ewing was beyond them all. He was the games greatest catcher; a good first baseman, fine cutfielder, and in the flag race of 'ss that went to the end of the stretch Buck even pitched and won several games. Such eminent judges as Charley Comiskey and Clark Griffith who have seen them all put Ewing first. He was not only fine bats- man and base runner, but could play any place with as much grace and skill as the regular on the job.

This Game a Thriller.

The second game of the evening was equally exciting as the opener the Vikings carrying off the honors after a speedy contest, score 25 to 24. "Charlie" Miller evidenced some of the playing that made kim one of the best players in these parts a few years ago, and his basket tossing both from the field and the foul line was of a top notch order. Sandy" Sandberg who was recently released from the West End, A. C., played against his former teammates and was a tower of strength on the defensive.
 Stephanian a former high school star played with the losers, and his many fouls counted heavily against his mates as Miller made most of them count The score:

If He's Lucky.

The Jess Willard Syndicate is to get $40,000 for 10-round bout in New York. This sounds like a pile of kale for the champion until one con- siders this-that after looking over the long list of Willard's managers the big Kansan probably had to raise the s40,000 to break even on the match.
 If he can finish with enough to secure a shave and shine Willard should have no squawk coming on the day of settlement.

Delaine took his hands from her
wrists. Il can scarcely do that, you
see," he said, 'for John Redfield start
ed for Europe nearly month ago.
She shrank back with low excla-
nation Of dismay, sinking down on
the divan and burying her face in her
hands. Kelley Delaine was a strong
man, but the sight Of suffering moved
him painfully. He felt for moment
as If forced to watch the agony of
some creature whom he must wound
in defense OF someone he loved. He
knew that he had been just, but the
thought of the pain he had inflicted
distressed him. He paused for mo-
ment, irresolute, looking at the girl
Then he laid gentle hand on the
bowed head.
Child" he said softly, child, it's
not too late to start fresh. We can
straighten the matter out yet, and
we'll forget all about it. I'm going to
leave you alone now, until you get a
fttle more quiet. We all have done
foolish things in our lives. and have
regretted them"
He stopped. He saw that she was
listening, and when she spoke he bent
down to catch what she said.
Please leave me alone for a few
minutes" she murmured. Please
leave me alone!"
She heard him close the door softly
behind him, and she sprang again to
her feet. She must think quickly. He
had found her out! That was the ag-
ony-not the thought of the lie itself,
but only that she had been discovered!
Fifteen minutes later Kelley Delaine
returned, looking as if nothing out Of
the ordinary had happened. In his
hand he bore a little tray, with plate
OF biscuit and two cups Of steaming
chocolate upon 1t.
II had an early breakfast" he ex-
planned "and find myself bit empty
In consequence. So l made Wang
brew me some cholate, and thought
perhaps you would join me In cup
before we settle down to work.
He smiled and, pulling small table
forward, put the tray upon 1t.
Here are some little crackers,
too," he said. Take some of these"
Soon Caryl Marvin was chatting as
usual, an occasional long-drawn breath
being the only evidence Of her recent
outburst. But, when Kelley Delaine
arose to ring for Wang to take out
the tray, she detained him, laying a
light hand on his arm.
