Why Has Mrs. Stockbridge Come to
Lunch With the Teachers?

Bess Dean opened the door of my
classroom, laid a pencil upon the
blackboard ledge with the air of
returning something she had bor-
rowed, and quietly withdrew to the
corridor again.
knew at once that either she or
or some other teacher wished to
speak to me in the hall 1t was a
signal used by the teachers of the
Bayview school in sending messages
to each other unnoticed by the
pupils. l was familiar with SIM
liar devices among teachers of other
schools, and had early been initiated
into the Bayview system, which
contained a number of other signals,
the most used one being the request
for the loan of blotter, which was
sent rapidly from one room to
another, when superintendents or
other official visitors appeared upon
the scene.
The Message.
I gave her the slightest casual
nod of the head, went out with the
particular point | was clinching as
if there was nothing else on my
mind. Then, asking my pupils to
copy certain outlines from the
blackboard, I slipped out of the
room to find Miss Dean impatiently
waiting OF the head of the stairs.
"Alice wants me to tell you that
little Milly is in Kennedy's Office,
and intends to join us at lunch,' y
sheh said hurriedly.

she asked. "But I don't shink she's
in dangerous mood to day. She's
smiling like a cat with one paw in
the cream jug. She's even calling
me Bessie dear sure sign that
everything is serene. Usually, she
eyes me with about the warmth of a
well-brought-up cobra, and
addresses me as 'Miss-er-Dean.
She hasn't any use for me you
know"
There was a touch of conscious
ness in the droop of her eyes, run
ming through the carelessness OF
her words, and a tiny self-satished
smirk at the corners of her mouth
which gave me an instant's reve-
lation of her meaning.
She intended to infer that she
was the object of Mrs. Stock
bridges jealousy.
I said cynically to myself that it
was a distinction to which she was
quite welcome, even as I smiled
noncommittally, made a swift prac-
tica1 calcula ton.
IF she stays to lunch with us, we
ought to get in something extra in
her honor" l suggested.

minutes. won't you? Alice thought

Andy Graves Holds K. c. Club
Helpless in First Came;
Dyke Fans Fourteen
in Second Game.

The Armours swamped the Kan
sas City Tigers in the first game of
their double-header at Rourke park
yesterday, winning 8 to 0. Andy
Graves pitched masterful ball and
held the colored batters helpless.
The second game was the best of
the series, the Tigers taking the lead
with two runs, but the Packers over
took them and passed them. The
colored boys knotted the score again
but in the eighth two more runs
were batted in and the game fin
ished up 6 to 4.
The last three colored batters
went out by the strike-out route,
making fourteen strikeouts for
Dyke, to Borley's seven fans. The
first two games were poor in the
extreme, but the darkies played
some real baseball in the final game.
There were only about 400 fans
present for the Saturday game, but
the double attraction drew 400 ball
bugs. Next Saturday and Sunday
the Chicago Union Giants will op-
pose the Armours in three games

with the exception OF few, the
contests were fast and snappy, and
the spectators were on their feet all
of the time roofing and cheering
their favorites on to victory. A
number of surprises were again
sprung and in several instances the
leaders were defeated by the second
division teams. This was true in
the Booster league, when the Trim
Bile Brothers won by the score of 9
to over the World-Herald team,
leaders of that loop. Up to yester-
days the newspaper crew had not
been defeated by any league team.
The contest was a see-saw affair
all the way, and the Herald team
tied the score in the eighth, making
it up, but in the ninth, with two
men down, an error and several
clean drives by the fruitmen's heavy
artillery sent the winning tally
across the plate. By their victory
and while the Nancy Milling Co.
lost to the Benson Merchants by
7 to score, the Trimbles are with
the Millers.
Ramblers Take Top Place.
The S to victory for the Ram
blers over the Daily News placed
the former team into first place in
the Booster league.
In the Gate-City league the Town
sends maintained a stronger hold on
first place by sending the Beseline
home with 6 to l defeat. In the
same loop the Omaha Prints Juni-
ors, by scoring four runs in the first
inning off Pitcher Kruchke, defeated
