Now TT is manager Cravath of N the Phillies. Jack Coombs met the same fate that did Pat Moran. For q long time experts have criti- cized the owner of the Phillies with being a poor loser. They said he did not care about laying out any money with which to purchase players. When Moran was let go he neither confirmed or denied these accusa- tions But now along comes Jack Coonbs. one of the most popular ball players baseball has ever known, re- penting the statements of the experts.
 Manager Cravath has announced that the team, which is securely es- abolished for long time in last place in the National League race, ir in dire need of new blood. Fur thermore. says Cravatn, there is a lack of cooperation among the play CTS. He goes even so far as to say that tho players arc even laying down on their jobs and attributes that fault as tho reason for the down. fall of the Phillies.

 George winn, erstwhile Red Sox twiEier, pitched brilliantly in his first game for Hartford yesterday, but ragged work by the Senator's inffe1d robbed him of q probable victory. The Bridgeport Americans were win ners, ' to 3.
 The Senators set the pace until the sixth inning and Winn had held the visitors runless. However, a mixture of errors and three singles, two of them scratch hits, were responsible for his downfall in this frame when a quartet of tallies was sent across. Only two of the victors' seven runs were earned, which was equal to the Senators earned run total. The other. five runs were dealt out on sil- yer platers to the visitors.
 The contest started with all the senblance of pitchers battle and was such until the fatal sixth Me Kenty, likewise a southpaw, pitched his first game for the Americans, and Fletcher Low. He did a good job at them idway except for one wild hcave in the seventh frame.

He was winded and apparently asked Grimes to allow him to leave the game. However, the manager al- lowed him to stay, in the hope that he would rc01ver, but as the hustling third saC lscr was weakened from the blow he was in no condition to cover his position. He booted Ray Grimes's short drive in the eighth and failed to get under Martins fly bunt. Then Manager Grimes was forced to take him out, shifting Lennehan to third.

and shots which were all about them.
Aroused by the racket, the members
of the party who were eating their
lunch came running to the spot just
as Morgan came up, painting.
Our horses have been stampeded
by a band of Indian horse thieves.

A mile down the trail they came
upon John, still pursuing his upward
way, covered with dust, but unhurt.
"Just had close CALL" he laughed
as they crowded about him. II was
coming along narrow ridge with
steep drop ON both sides when I saw
bunch of stampeding horses coming
down upon me. As l could not jump
off on either side, for a moI2ent l
thought I was goner. Fortunately,
however, found place where l could
get a finger hold on the side of the
way and, swinging myself over, hung
there until they passed. Then pulled
myself up"
THANK God!" breathed Ethel, as
she slipped her arm under his own.
Morgan, ordering three of the men
to go after the brutes and round them
up, led the party back to camp. John
and Ethel walked side by side, the girl
still clinging to the returned one as
though afraid that by some magic he
should again be whsked from her
sight. The Hawk shook his fist in the
distance as John finished the recital
of his adventures.
Its more of that Internal hermit's
work. We've got to hunt him and his
gang down and fill them full of lead
if we want any peace"
"Yes. 1t is war to the knife" re-
turned Davis thoughtfully.. Awaiting
only the return of the frightened
horses, the expedition continued its
way, camping for the night at the edge
of swollen mountain torrent that de-
scended from the snow mountains far
beyond.
A small shack of light logs resting
upon a low foundation stood at the
edge of the turgid stream. As it was
the only place Of shelter near, while
supper was being prepared Morgan,
Davis and the girl inspected it. 1t was
a tiny affair Of about ten feet by eight,
consisting OF but one room and with
the ridge pole no higher than a man
could reach. Beyond window. door
and small platform outside. 1t pos
sessed nothing but walls, floor and
roof. Mean MS it was there was moth

insisting that Ethel occupy it during
the night. Quickly she protested.
II won't stay In there alone. Yon
must not leave me. We must watch
over each other, and will not be left
alone"
But it would not do for me to stay
inside, also" he responded. The Hawk
came forward with a solution of the
problem.

her response. AS he returned from the
corral with his mount the woman met
him at the door, rifle in hand, and
thanking her and promising quick
return of the borrowed articles, he set
out upon his way.
From the winding trail which arose
in successive uprisings from the val
ley into the foothills, the boss and his
follower looked down to catch sight of
galloping horse and rider far below,
vet not beyond rifle shot. An oath
burst from the lips of Fream.
Hes got loose. but we can pot him
from here" Raising his rifle, he fired,
but as the smoke cleared the horseman
was seen still pursuing his way and
apparently unhurt. The other scoun-
drel raised his weapon, sighted care
fully and pulled the trigger. AS the
gun roared the man below toppled
from his saddle and fell headlong to
the ground.
"But 1 got him." he laughed. For
moment the pair watched the motion
less form below. then, squirting their
horses, went galloping away.
That Davis was not dead in fact,
with a bullet through his head, was
due to his quick thinking When the
bullet fred by Fream whizzed close by
his head and spattered upon the wall
of rock he cast a lightning glance in
the direction from whence the report
came. The second man was in the act
Of raising his rifle and, watching him
intently, John rode along in apparent
unconcern as he awaited the pulling
of the trigger. As the smoke leaped
from the muzzle of the distant rifle,
with a lightning move he threw him
self sideways from his horse, escaping
the whining bullet by the fraction of
an inch. Knowing that to make a
move would be to have his body
pumped full of lead, he lay in the
sprawled attitude in which he had
fallen until he saw the villainous pair
ride away. No sooner were they gone
thnn he leaped to his feet.
The horse. frightened by the shots
and It's riders fall, ran into the hills.
Once more the man pursued his way
on foot.
From the camp where the party had
halted for lunch Morgan and the
Spider, who had retired a short dis
tance down the trail to talk things
over, saw John approaching them on

"If he hasn't gotten away again

the Spider were already scanning the
conditions which surrounded the ap-

said as his fingers clutched the others

Either would be good enough for us"
Morgan started off on a run.
"WeIl try it, but we've got to hustle

THESE ARE PLEADING
 FOR MITIGATION OF
 TERMS OF ARM|STICE

Saioniki, Dec. 2O.-(Correspondence to the Associated fress)--Greeks ana Serplans III Eastern Maceuonla, who suffered plilage, persecution, deporta tion and murder at the hands or the BulgarS before the armies of the former King Ferdinand quit the coun- try under the terms or an armlsrlce, are exhibiting dissatisfaction over what they term the indulgence of the Entente towers toward Bulgaria.
 With fully 42,OO0 of thelr number deported, half of whom, it is believed pdled under the hardships s' imposed upon them, the Macedonian natives are demanding accSrding to a Reuter- correspondent who toured the llberat- ed territory, that the Bulgarians be crushed by traditional Balkan meth ods. During tic period of occupation the Bulgarlans proved themselves "brutes and past masters in acts of spollation and violence" said the cor respondent, and when appeals for re lief were made to the German author ities no attention was paid to them.
 Entering Macedonia as friends, un der an understanding with former King Constantine of Greece, the Bull garians established a reign of terror which has been characterized as a disgrace to civilization. They impos- ed upon the population rationing system which resulted in the starva- tion of many, following with assess ments of taxes and seizure of provi- sions to an extent that impoverished the country Then followed wholesale executions and crimes against men, women and girls of the most revolting character the survivors declared. At Seres only 5000 persons remain of 25,000 living in the city when the Greeks turned it over to the Bulgars. The population of Demir Hassir fell from 12,000 to 2,300 and in Kavala 5000 to 5000 persons died of starva- tion alone in 1917, while in 1916 the deaths numbered 30 day, largely from malnutrition. In these and smaller cities the Bulgars not only confiscated the bulk of the foodstuffs hut forced the abe boiled inhabitants to work for the invaders and carried away vast quantities of agricultural implements and furniture
 Joy in Macedonia over the with drawal of the Bulgars is exhibited by inscriptions on many street corners reading, "Christos Anesti" (Christ is Risen," while the Hellenic army of liberation is received everywhere with enthusiastic acclaim.
