CHAPTER xt.
The Spirit Of Michael Henry and
Others

At the examination OF Amos Grim
shaw my knowledge was committed to
the records nd'CcnScd to be a source
OF danger to me. Grimshaw came to
the village that day. On my way to
the courtroom I saw him walking
slowly. with bent head as had seen
MIN before, followed by old Kate. She
carried her stan in her left hand while
the foretinger of her right hand was
pointing him out Silent as ghost
and as unheeded-One would say-she
followed his steps.
I observed that old Kate sat on a
front seat with her hand to her ear
and Grimshaw beside his lawyer at n
big table and that when she looked AT
him her lips moved in a strange un-
uttered whisper Of her spirit. Her
face filled with Joy as one damning
detail after another came out In the
evidence.
The facts hereinbefore alleged. and
others. were proved. for the tracks fit
ted the shoes OF Amos. The young
man was held and presently Indicted.
The time OF his trial was not deter
pined.

the leading merchant OF the village
engaged me to post his books every
Saturday al ten cents an hour. Thence
forward until Christmas l gave my

the sum that I should earn and
planned TO divide 1t In equal parts and
proudly present 1t to my aunt and

THREE PITCHERS
FAIL IN EFFORT
TO HALT GIANTS
Chance to Win Pennant and
They are Fighting.

Chicago, Sept. 11.-None of three
pitchers sent to the front by Boss
Mitchell yesterday was able to halt
the New York Giants, who still
have a slim chance to win the pen
nant, and the result was McGraw's
men romped away with the third
game of the series, to 2. They
gathered Is hits for a total of %
bases and never were in danger
after knocking in a cluster of three
runs in the opening round.
Claude Hendrix was sent to the
rubber to start, but he didn't last
long enough to get the side out in
the nrst inning. Four healthy
swats, one a two Dagger, along
with a sacrifice fly and a stolen
base, put the three runs across and
Abe Bailey, who had been warming
up furiously during the lombard
ment, was summoned, post haste to
restore order He did it, but it took
spectacular and daring one
handed catch by Bill McCabe, sub
bling for F1ack in right field, to turn
the trick.
Abe sailed along on the job until
the end of the seventh, but he was
raped hard in the sixth and sew
enth, two more tallies coming in,
and he gave way to a pinch hitter,
after which Nick Carter went to
the hill and toiled through the re-
naming two rounds. Nick was
damaged to the extent of two
more runs.
The Giants seemed able to hit
anything that was served up and
might have enlarged the score had
they not been bit too daring on
the bases. George Burns and Ben
ny Kauff swacjed three apiece,
while Heinie Zim, Kelly, and
Snyder knocked out two each, and
all the others did something to
swell the total

TICKET LOTTERY
FOR BIG SERIES
BANNED BY LAW

Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept, 11-Fed-
eral law made it necessary to
change the plan for distribution Of
the worlds series baseball re-
served seat tickets in Cincinnati if
the Reds are participants.
Under the original plan of allot-
ting the tickets through the lottery
system of drawing, as announced,
the Cincinnati clubs officials had
come slightly within the scope OF
federal law, as it relates to tickets
or prizes Of chances.
August Hermann. president Of
the Cincinnati club, was sum
monad to the federal building by
First Assistant District United
States Attorney James R Clark
and Postoffice Inspector Morgan
Griswold, who explained to him
just what was wrong, under the
law. with the original plan. The
officials pointed out what altera-
tions would have to be made, which
Mr. Hermann announced would be
attended to at once.
Under the change which Herr
mann promised to make, every
thing will be all right" said Assist
ant District Attorney Clark.
Everything has been satisfac-
torily arranged" Hermann said
There is ample time to make the
changes in the clubs plans"

PURDUE FOOTBALL
GETS UNDER STEAM

Lafayette, Ind, Sept Forty
two candidates for the Purdue
football eleven worked out infor-
mally on Stuart field yesterday aft
ernoon. Assistant Coach Ward
Lambert was present, but Coach
Arthur G.. Scanlon will not arrive
until Sept IA.
The preliminary practice season
finds the boiIermaker squad in
good spirits. and prospects are
fairly bright for a formidable team.
No captain was elected for this
years eleven, but ii is likely that
Kenneth Huffine, fullback, who
withdrew from school in 1917 to
enter shortly after being elected
captain for 1918, will be reelected
to that position.
Huffine. Waters. DAILY, Hamilton,
Murphy and Church, are among
the backs already at work. Mitchell
and StanwoOd are candidates for
center If Harvey and Spencer re-
turn Purdue will have two stars
for the squad the former being a
fullback and Spencer, a 200 pound
lineman. Oliver Geyer and Hag-
erman are the leading candidates
for end positions.
There is a dearth OF available
guards and tackles, but several
men who played on last years
eleven in these positions are ex-
pected to reenter the university
later in the week.

nO-hit game against New York in
the first game of a double header
yesterday, Cleveland winning, to
0. The Indians also won the second
game, to 2
Only two men reached base on
Caldwell, Hannah getting a base
on balls in the sixth inning and
Baker reaching base on a tumble
by Wambganss in the seventh in
ming. 1t was the first time Cald-
well ever has pitched against New
York.
Mays also pitched a good game
for New York, only six hits being
made off him. Harris was respon-
sible for all three Cleveland runs.
He hit a home run in the first in
ming with Graney on base, and
doubled in the sixth, scoring Chap
man.
Uhle, a former Cleveland sandlot
pitcher, debated the Yankees in
the second game Gardner won the

home run with Harris on base.

SOX CAN'T TELL
why their GAME
ASPOSTPONED
EEmity of Manager Clark Griffith
of Senators is Believed to
Have Been Cause.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 11.-For
no known reason. except possibly
enmity to Comiskey, Manager Grit
fiths OF the Senators called off yes
terday's game with the White SOx,
compelling them to play q double
header here today, although fully
aware that the Gle3sons nave to
make an early train for Philadel-
phia, or else take day coach ride
the following morning.
The Griffith alibi was that the
grass at his park was wet. 1t
rained between s O'Clock and mid
night, and remained cloudy all
forenoon, but the weather man as
sured everybody it would not rain.
The local park was in good shape,
in spite of lack of sunshine, but
after the visiting players reached
the arena they were informed there
would be nothing doing.
On account of the early train,
Manager Gleason asked Griffith to
start the double header at 1870
o'clock today. the prevailing hour
in most cities, but Griffith refused
to begin play before 2 o'clock, and
would not even split the difference
by agreeing to start at las.
Grifith's attitude may furnish
impetus to the movement in the
American league for the withdraw
al of the franchise from Washing
