Ruth felt horribly embarrassed. She
had no idea that Mrs. Curtis aud per,

had known him long time, and were
fond of him. They both knew she work

cost of her clothes, that she had ram

CHAPTER XII.

Brian and Mollie danced well togeth
er. Ruth admitted it when Mrs. Curti
called it to her attention. She also ad
mitted-to herself-that they were en-
joying themselves extremely.
She tried to be sensible and not fee
hurt and trifle jealous. Mollie King
was an old friend of Brian IS, and shC
must not make him feel that she wa.
narrow about such things. But wher
their laugh frequently hang out, ant
Brian insisted upon their having the
second dance, one that had been par
tieular favorite of Molile's before Ruth
knew him, she couldn t help herself.
Ruth danced once with Brian. She
danced well, and usually loved to dance
with Brian. Bub he had been so taken
up with Mollie that he spent the time
relating scme of her bright sayings;
which naturally annoyed Ruth, in the
frame of mind she was in.
1t was midnight when Ruth proposed
they go home. For some time Claude
Becky had again monopolized her. And,
among other things, he had told her
OF what a gay dog" Brian had been
before he was married, and how 'fthe
village" had missed him.
You should have taken apartments
down town, then you would become ae-
qlalnted with his old friends" he
told her.
Ruth did not tell him she had no de-
sire to know them if they were like
hlm, yet she wanted to. Instead, she
then proposed leaving.
Mrs. Curtis accompanied her and Mol.
he King to the guest room while they
donned their wraps.

GAME ON SUNDAY
AT FENWAYi PARK
White Sox to Meet Red Sox
In First Game Ever
Played in City.

Boston, May 25-The first game of
professional baseball ever played in
this city on Sunday will be held in
Fenway park Sunday afternoon be-
tween the Chicago Amer, can League
champions and the Boston Red sox,
runners-up for the title last year. The
game will be in the regular cham
pionship series and by the consent of
President Ban Johnson of the, Ameri-
can League, will be- moved up from
Monday. All the gross proceeds will
be given to the Red Cross war fund
through an agreement reached by
President Frazee of the local club
and President Comiskey lof the Chi
cago club.
Because the proceeds are to go to
charitable purposes, the usual war tax
will not be collected, thus restoring
the old price of a ouarter'for bleacher
seats instead of the war price of 80
cents.
All boxes have been turned over to
the Red Cross committee to auction
off or dispose of otherwise Commit
tees plan to go through the financial
district today and it is expected some
of the boxes will bring in $100 each.
President Frazee anticipates $4,000
will be turned over to the Red Cross.
The consent of state and city au-
thorities has been obtained for the
game. While the legislature few
weeks ago enacted a special law per-
hitting Sunday baseball for army and
navy service teams, for which no adj
mission is charged, professional base
ball in championship saries on Sun
day has never before been offered to
the public here.

FISTIC HISTORY

Prince Boswell, who was near
champion in the early days of the
English ring, was born in Eng
land, 106 years ago today, May %,
1712. Boswell was a gypsy and the
son of king of one of those strange
wandering tribes. In those days
pugilism was one of the favorite
sports at the fairs which were an
nually held in towns and cities all
over the country. Roswelps COM
-pany of gypsies made the rounds of
these fairs, the women earning a liv-
ing by telling fortunes, and the
Prince" early became interested in
the manly art" He was successful
in defeating some of the best gla-
diators of the time, and was never
defeated until he met George Taylor,
who claimed the championship after
the death of F1gg in 1874. The
gypsy made gallant fight for the
coveted title, but was defeated by Tay-
lor. -s..

Daubert was handicapped in his

legs, but the ailment is not apparent
this season. He was a great disap-
pointment at the bat last year, too
especially with men on bases, but this
season he has shown a, greater i'm
provement in his stick work. He is
also fielding in the form which made
him the idol of the Broadway fans.

last night became almost mark of
distinction in the eyes of some 10000
people who paid close tos$30, 900 to get
into the weather beaten old structure
on Fourth and Madison avenues.
It was fstiania's contribution to the
greatest of all war charities. Many
of the best boxers in the game ap-
peared, and every match was strictly
on its merits. Every match was real
fight and not merely boxing contest
Fighting is illegal in this state -
said William Fox, head of the Allied
of the Red Cross, which put on the
show, ''but anything is legal when it is
for the Red Cross"
And the crowd agreed with the idea.
1t was announced that with the gate
receipts and other subscriptions and

from the benefit.
The greatest collection of pugilistic
stars ever gathered in one ring pound
