Lund glanced at the geyser Of spray
where the shell from the pursuing gun
boat had fallen short. and then at the
bank Of mist ahead. They were in the
narrows Of Bering strait, between tho
Cape Of Charles and Prince Edwards
point, the gold aboard, a full wind in
their sails, making eleven knots to the
gunboat's fifteen.
The great curtain Of fog was a mile
ahead. The last shell had fallen two
hundred yards short. Five minutes
more would settle It. Hansen had the
wheel. Lund stood BY tho taffrail. his
arm about Peggy sImms. He shook a
fist at the gunboat, vomiting black
smoke from her funnel, foam about
her bows.
"We'll beat 'em yet" he cried.
The next shell, with more elevation.

and smashed into the waves.

A missile had gone plump through

to mark the score. Another fairly
struck the main topmast, and some
splinters came rattling down while
the remnants Of the top-sail fiapped
amid wrlthing ends Of halyard and

and the men ran to the sheets
at command while the Karluk shot off
at right angles to her previous course,
skirting the fog that blanketed the
wind but vet allowed sufficient breeze
to filter through to give them headway,

BOSTON TAKES
TWO SHUTOUTS
FROM GRIFFS
Score In First Game Is 3 to o,
While Red Sox Get Lone Run
Of Second In the Ninth.
By LOUIS A. BOUCHER.

CHUTOUT baseball was the
order of the day in the Red
Sox double-header, with the
crushed and mangled Griffs on the
receiving end. Alec Ferguson con-
quered Jehosephat Besselievre Brill
heart in the first contest, 3 to 0.
Bill Piercy nosed out Walter John
son in the second, / to 0. The
Griffmen have now gone runless
through twenty-three consecutive
innings.
Brillheart was wild, but never
theless effective. johnson was
most effective all the way, an un-
expected sprint Of Burns from first
to third on Texas Lacquer to
right, followed by Joe Harris fly
to Brewer, bringing across the lone
tally.
The Red sox took a one-run lead
In the fourth inning of that first
game. Two were out at the time,
but that meant nothing to the val.
orous Red Sox. Joe Harris waited
and walked. Shano Collins raised
a fly in short left.
Roger Peckinpaugh, who covers
acres Of ground. went out after it.
Goose Goslin decided he could take
II. too. Result7 Collision and
dropped ball. with lucky two-bagger
credited to Collins. also a run for
Harris. That wasn't fair to our
little Nell, but II stuck.
Out Goes Brillheart.
Brillheart was unusually wild, and
finally he disappeared in the eighth.
Miller drove a single to left, and
passes to Burns and Pratt knotted
the count. That was enough for
Brillheart, Olaf Erickson taking his
place.
Joe Harris promptly splashed a
double in right field and In came
Miller and Burns. Olaf steamed
up then and turned back the ext
three in order. But the Sox didn't
need any more runs.
Just once the Griffs got man as
far as third, Brewer achieving that
on a single, a passed ball, and an in
field error. He remained right where
he was, though. Furtherpore,
Brewer was the only Griffmah to
get hs idf ds bcCohu pdcc HL thdt
game.
The second clash was brilliant
duel between Bill Piercy and Walter
johnson, which went along without
incident for eight innings. Then
came the break, with the Boston,ans
getting the only run of the game.
Burns Moves Fast.
johnson issued pass to Elmer
Miller for starter. That was an
unfortunate beginning. Judge was
in like frog. snatched up Burns
bunt and cut down Miller at second.
So far, 80 good, but the worst was
yet to come.
Del Pratt put up a puny pop fly
behind Buclxy Harris, and while
Bucky and Brewer were struggling
to get under Il in vain George Burns
actually reached third base. For a
man Of his speed that was close to
miracle. ~
To make matters worse Joe Harris
poled a long fly to Brewer. and In
came Burns. That run defeated
Bucky Harris walked In the sixth,
went up on hit. and took third on
q wild pitch, That was the one time
that a Griffman travelled that far
against Piercy.
Some brilliant fielding bits were
turned In by Pittinger, Mitchell. La
Motto, Judge. and Harris. So. too,
Rice and Collins galloped long dis.
tances to snag fly balls.

and Pitcher HoIlingsworth, Of the

Griffs' leader, that Il costs a lot
Of money these days TO get ban

Fisher Is right-handed throwcr

on the bases and in the field. Last
year he hit for .352 In the Western
League and last week. when I saw
him, was hitting for $40. He looks
to have a good arm and he ought to
make good here.
N"Dick Wade Is the best outfielder
in the American Association. He
was not last year when first saw
him, but now he is ready. He also
