THE GREAT EGG EPISODE
By ". o. McGEEHAN.

rying past her 90 frightened people in
the direction Of Flatbush-some never
TO return.
A quiet little man rushes to her side
nervously, dropping his MS, as he NUT
ters TO himself. Before Beatrice can
utter a word Of protest he places a
small white object into her hand, II
is 'Orrible AIRY Thomas. the chief
lieutenant Of the Boy Bandit.
With a cry OF terror Beatrice hurls
the third hard boiled egg into the East
River. Instantly she regrets her i'm
petuosity. She realizes that she may
have destroyed valuable clew. she
leans down and looks into the moonlit
waters.
As Beatrice stares regretfully down
ward she sees a periscope rushing IN
the direction Of the spot where the egg
has fallen. In due time submarine
appears upon the surface, and Ivy
Kaplan, the photographer. is seen on
its deck, camera in hand.
81 got il a good picture by the egg,
Miss Buggs!" calls Icy cheerfully.
Hastily Disgusting herself as Steve
Brodie, Beatrice leaps nimbly from the
bridge and joins Icy in the submarine.
The submarine disappears just as the
superdreadnought New York, with the
Boy Bandit on board, comes down from
the Brooklyn navy yard.
"Foiled." whispers the Boy Bandit 70
Admiral Dewey.
REEL 4.-The sporting editor calls
Beatrice Bugs, the girl reporter, into
his sanctum. Traces of worry are
shown on his countenance.
Miss Bugs he said abruptly, Il
need your help. Yesterday | sent to
Jimmie Johnston, the Boy Bandit, ask
ing for a pass 10 the fight between
Battling Ham and Knockout Cheese.
He sent me this"
The sporting editor produced hard
boiled egg from his pocket. For a
moment Beatrice registers fear. But
she RECEIVERS herself quickly. "Send for
Icy Kaplan," she says quietly.
Icy appears with two newly devel-
oped pictures. Both show blank. at IS

Icy. you seen me took two action
pictures by hard boiled eggs and now

81 will go myself TO the Garden"
says Beatrice. 81 will beard the bandit
in his lair"
REEL b-Boldly approaching the box
Office at the Garden, Beatrice shows
her card and demands a ticket to the
fight A hand is thrust through the
window and a package is placed in the
hand of the girl reporter. With a
smile OF triumph she starts back to the
office.
The sporting editor is moodly pac-
ing up and down in his Office. Beatrice
bursts in and lays the package upon
his desk Nervously the sporting ed
itor tears it open. A note rolls out
Close up of the note.) 1t reads:
81 inclose my right eye and you are
welcome TO it. But positively no Annie
Oakleys."
Beatrice for the first time in her
newspaper career feels the sting of de-
feat She weeps bitterly. Icy Ksplan
appears with his grips packed

There are no hard boiled eggs there
and the Gar is not such bad Teller.
Here is bendits and lowlfes. But be-

A decision which from the stands
looked to be sadly off color robbed Ivy
Olson and George Cutshaw OF the honor
Of making a brilliant play. II also
robbed Marquard of shut-out. Al the
start of the game Warner rolled a weak
roller down TO second, which Cutsha"
knocked down and tipped to Olson, VINO
shot the ball 70 Daubert. Apparently
the ball beat the runner, but HARRISON
ruled Warner safe.
