 looked distinctly annoyed. The colla, button rolled under his mahogany
 highboy. and concealed itself carefully
 behind one Of the legs. Rev. Smith Boyd, there being none to see, laid aside his high dignity, and got down on his knees, though not for any clerical purpose, whereat the little col lar button shone so brightly that the rector's bulging eye caught the glint of it. His hand swung round, at the end of long arm, and captured it be- fore it could hide any further, then the young rector withdrew his throb- ping head and started to raise up, and bumped the back of his head with a crack on the bottom of an open draw CT, near enough to the top to give him a good long sweep for momentum This mishap being just one degree be- yond the point to which Rev. Smith Boyd had been consecrated. he ejacu. lated as follows:- :-

Smith Boyd, in that stress, calculated; but beautiful, gray-haired lady, beau tiful with the sweetness of content and the happiness of gratified pride and the kindliness of humor, who had paused at Rev. Smith Boyd's open door to inquire how soon he would be down to dinner, hastily covered her mouth with her hand, and moved away from the door, with moist blue eyes, around which twinkled a dozen tiny born of much smiling.
 When the dignified young rector came down to dinner, fully clothed and apparently in his right mind, his moth CT, who was the beautiful gray-haired | lady with the twinkling blue eyes, | looked across the table and smiled in- at his disguise; for he was not grown-up, tall, broad-shouldereG | man of thirty-two at all In reality he | was shock-headed, slightly freckled | lrchin of nine or ten, by the name of | 'Smitty" on the town commons, and | Tod" at home

 Don't hedge, Allison" parked Ar thur Grandin You expressed it right in the first place. You're put ting it up to us to step out of the local championship class, and contend for the big belt"
 "The prize isn't big enough pro- nounced w. T. Chisholm, as if he had decided for them all As befitted his calling, he was slower minded than the rest. There are few quick turns in banking.
 Not big enough?" repeated Allison. Not big enough, when the Union Fuel company already supplies every can dle which goes into the Sudan, runs the pumps on the Nile and the motor boats on the Yang se-Kyang, supplies the oil for the fabrication of the car of Juggernaut, and works the propel- Ter of every aeroplane? Not big enough when already the organiza- tions represented here have driven their industries into every quarter of the earth? What shall you say when we join to our nucleus the great steamship lines and the foreign rail- l roads? Not big enough? Gentlemen, look here!" He strode over to the big globe. From New York to San Fran | cisco a red line had already been | traced. Now he took a pencil in his hand, and placing the point at New York, gave the globe a whirl, girding | it completely. "Gentlemen, there is your empire!"
 Again the nasal voice of old Joseph G. Clark drawled into the silence.

 The bell of Allison's house phone rang.
 "Mr Dalrymple, sir" said the voice of Ephraim.
 "Very well," replied Allison Show him into the study. Babbitt, will you read to the gentlemen this skeleton plan of organization? If you'll excuse me. I'll be back in five minutes"
 "Dalrymple?" inquired Taylor.
 "Yes," answered Allison distracted ly, and went into the study.
 He and Dalrymple looked at each other silently for moment, with the old enmity shining between them Dal- rymple, man five years Allison 8 senior, a brisk speaking man with a protruding jaw and deep-set gray eyes, had done more than any other one hu- man being to develop the transporta- tion systems of New York. but his gift had been in construction, in creation, whereas Allison's had been in combi. nation; and Dalrymple had gone into the railroad business.

Ship That Carried Dewey To Manila
 Bay Brings k. R. Supplies.

The ship Nanshan, Captain Pr- dcaux, which was loaned by the navy department to the Railroad Commis- sion arrived this morning at 1 o'clock with 500 tons of steel, three dump cars and other material for the gov ernmcnt work here. When only 23 years of age Captain pIteauX was in command of the Nanshan and showed Dewey through the Manila Bay. Ad- mual Dewey afterwards had the Nanshan purchased by the United States government from British concern and Pudcaux has had the command every since Naashan is a Chinese name which means Northern Mountain, so the ship ought to feel quite at home.

chorage- Seward series provided the best of all three, rattling contests as the preceding ones were. Up to the second half of the seventh the visitors had two runs to nothing for Seward and matters looked so good for the Inlet people that the reporter for their home paper wired: "We have the game in our pockets" In the seventh Taylor scored and in the second half of the eighth came the beautiful base ste; ling work of Tom Finnegan and Campbell that let them both in in for the winning notches. It was a fine bit of head work on the part of the local captain and second baseman. It won the game but they were well assisted by a sacrifice bunt of Adams that was perfectly placed
 The Anchorage boys took their Waterloo in good shape and were game to the end. They made a thrill ling fight for their city and deserved but Williams was just a bit too clever and the assistance given him was almost hawless.
 First Inning
 Captain Rochon came up for the visitors, famed the first two balls from Williams but hit the third safe ly, making the very first hit, by the way, off the Seward pitcher. The runner later was nipped at second when Mills forced him. Tiffany struck out and Campbell caught Levin.
 Captain Campbell went out at first Rochon to Powery. Adams likewise, Nourse to Powery. Taylor struck out. Second Inning
 Amundsen, Powery and Nourse, all died with the bat in their hands al- most as quick as Williams could shoot.
 2yan tanned. Manthey got base OF balls but he and V.Giams were both doubled out, Eochor to Powery. Third Inning g
 Nofscar fell, Campbell to Manthey. Vandervere suffered the same fate at the same sure hands and Rochon was nipped by a beauty thrown from Williams to Manthey.
 Lee was caught finely by Levin. Jack Finnegan ran out a third strike and got there by a high throw from Amundsen to the visiting first base man. Powery caught Tom Finnegan but Jack stole second. Campbell was out, Rochon to Powery
 Fourth Inning
 Taylor caught Mills. Tiffany was out, Campbell to Manthey and Joe caught Levin.
 Vandervere prettily stopped a hot one from Adams and got him when it looked like a safe hit Taylor then got in the first two-bagger but Ryan struck out and Nofscar finely caught Manthey.
 Fifth Inning
 Here came the dark and evil looking time for Seward. 1t began when Amundsen hit. Powery also hit but the visiting backstop failed to reach second. Then horrible thing hap pened. Nourse bunted and a wild throw by Joe Campbell, yes, Joe Campbell, to first lst the two hostiles to second and third and both of them crossed the home plate when NOfscar let out a safe hit. Vandervere was out at first but the harm was done.
 Williams was out, Tiffany to Pow cry. Lee went out, pitcher to first baseman and Jack Finnegan was thrown out, Nourse to first. Sixth Inning
 Rochon hit between the Taylor legs. Mills struck by ball walked. Tiffany failed to see the three first balls sent by Williams or either one of them and Levin come up and does the very identical empty sword play. Six com secutive balls, nothing more. Then
