trunks Past the deepest and coolest
dells; past the messy banks of the rip
ping stream past the flower-dotted
open spaces, sweet and warm with sun
shine; past the glimpses of scattered
dwellings; on they flew, and all the
while the merciless sun sank lower, and
the hateful shadows came creeping, creep
ing over the land. The man rode well
in spite of his surplus flesh, and sat on
his pony grimly with his eyes ever on
the road rising out of the trees to meet
him; the girl swayed and chung to the
saddle horn, but kept up with him
through every turn. He did not look
at her nor cease for a moment to urge
on his steed. Thus the miles flew by.
The road was familiar to them both
They were racing into hollow and each
knew that beyond the next rise they
could see the roofs of the council house
and the trading station which nestled
about it. The ponies increased their
speed visibly under the lash of the two
whips which were scarcely needed And
now came the hill to climb, the last one.
But in the hollow, how black it was
There was no sun. The brave little
ponies toiled up the steep hillside and
Just at its top there rested the last faint
rays of sun which from where they
were was now only tiny curve of red
blood in the west Almost before they
had started down the other side, that
too, had gone But there before them
was the council house. The executions
were held at least half mile further
on in a grove behind the town, and each
instinctively turned the horse into the
faint side road which led toward the
spot
But hardly had they penetrated into
the shelter of the path, where the woods |
were still with that stiffness which /
comes at sunset when three shots rang
out on the clear air. Temple James
reached out suddenly and grasped the
bride of the girls horse stopping both
animals abruptly. The echo from the
shots still rang in their ears reverber-
ating among the hills, and both knew
what they meant The woods were
growing darker. Each visioned the
crumped figure of the one loved face
downward on the earth, and at the same
moment far behind them, the mother,
feeling that all was over, rose and walk
ed into her house with the steps of an
old woman, cursing John Cohee in her
heart
At the sound of the Shots Minnie slip
ped from the saddle, and as if spent past
all going, sank into pitiful heap on the
grassy bank by the road side. Her low
er was dead, and she had been too late
to save him. She did not faint but her
very soul became numb with an UNI
speakable agony, and for brief space
of time she seemed to be only a thing
ready for humiliation. The cool grass
felt grateful to her hot cheek, and the
earth seemed to rock her in its great
arms Tamn1p Tamnc ctil1 cat ctrai obt

M'GRAW PUTS
HOUSE in ORDER
Three Young Giants Are
Swept Out in the
Cleanup.
Ry FRANK ONEILL.

Fred Brainerd, Bunny Martin and
Eddie Harrison, three OF tho young
Giants, we're released By John J. Me
Graw Yesterday. The Little Napoleon
has four days 70 reduce his team 70
twenty-one players, in order to con-
form with the rule Of the National
League. All OF the aforementioned
players have been disposed Of for good
and for all, it is thought. Brainerd
was sold to the Providence club, Of the
international League, outright, while
Harrison and Martin were released IN
conditionally.
Brainerd may retire from baseball
He has taken his release pretty much
20 heart, and has said that he may re-
turn TO his old home in New Mexico
and take up his profession of engineer
ing. Brainerd 10 graduate or the
University of Illinois. He is a civil
engineer and does a little work in that
line during the off season. Several
times on the trip through the South he
spoke of quitting baseball for business
at the end of this season.
Martin came TO the Giants from the
Braves at the waiver price. he has
been pretty unfortunate in baseball and
has fractured his legs three times. The
accident. have shaken his confidence
little. and he is extremely wary about
sliding. Martin is a good fielder and
fairly effective batter. Harrison was
with the Giants several times. but each
time was turned back 70 the Texas
League This year couple OF clubs on
that circuit wanted him, but Eddie re-
fused to 20 back again. He feared the
riding of the fans, and said so in as
many words. He is not only a clever
shortstop and third basemsn, but can
play the outfield AS well. He has an
exceptional throwing arm.
Brainerd's release was not in the
nature of surprise to those who have
followed the team. He went into the
game this year with the chance of =
lifetime. Lobert was hurt, and he had
first call He failed lamentably to
measure up to the requirements. IL IS
largely matter OF temperament With
Brainerd When in the mood he can
play ball with the best, but he is q
boy of considerable means and not IN
the least dependent upon baseball for
a living. Aside from his profession
OF engineering he owns an extensive
tract OF land in New Mexico, and his
folks are we'll known in the cattle in
dustry in the Southwest. He just laid
back. and if he did well he was pleased,
but if he did only indiffcrently we'll he
never worried much.
The work of pruning the Giants will
be carried on apace. Three men will
be released this week, and il is only a
question of which ones. Milton Jacob
son is almost sure TO travel 10 other
parts. and couple Of pitchers may go
with him. Just now, with Palmero go
ing so nicely, RUDE Benton and Ferdie
Schupp are looking about for the
cheapest rates TO other towns. RUDE
Schauer and Bill Ritter are none too
secure in their places. Benton devel-
oped a sore arm this spring and it has
refused to yield 10 treatment. The
other pitchers have been with the team
long enough to prove their worth, but
have not done much. In the mean
while. Lew Wendell and Brad Kocher
are wondering what will happen TO
them. as a catcher may also be re
