MAN HAD DELusIoN
Several Drinks Made Him Imagine
Sunday Was an Umpire.


Sunday Was an Umpire.
Mistaken for an umpire is the ex-
perieEce of Billy Sunday, according to
the story being told today on the
streets of Spartanburg, relates a Spar
tanburg dispatch. ",'-'~
A tense moment occurred during
the service Friday night when a man
sitting several rows in front of the
platform jumped to his feet and ex-
claimed, Let me hit him! Let me hit
him." .-
Mr.. Sunday merely glanced; in the
direction of the man, who was un-
known and unseen by the great major
ity of those in the audience. No fur
ther attentions was paid the incident
except that many persons had to in
terview' their neighbor as to who 1t
was and what was the cause of the
interruption. =
Today, according to the story being
told here, a we'll known Spartanburg
man came to Mr.. Sunday and apollo
gized, at the same time adding that
he was willing to hit the sawdust trail
any time the evangelist commanded.
Mr.. Sunday, of course, accepted the
mans apology and bade him worry no
more about the incident.
To his friends the citizen is said to
have stated that he had taken a drink
or two and on hearing the remarks
from the platform, looked up suddenly,
thought he was at a ball game and
wanted to rush for the umpire.

Straightforward admit that Flora
Sibley, with whom VIC are allowed to
become quite we'll acquainted in the
opening chapters, and Adela Ventress
the mysterious stranger, are the same

Sibley, but his labors of character de
lineation are handicapped by his own
nexplicable reticence as to her real
identity.
The assistant mysteries, more pro
found because of an almost complete
absence of clews. are carefully coddled
by MIR. Benet. Some of these are lit
erary enigmas, viz: Who is the woman
who wrote "The Crystal Castle"? Who
wrote The Golden Windfall"? And
then: Who is Jane Bartlett? Who is
Gertrude Gedney, etc? While these
childish riddles are of no particular
consequence, it is not fair to the author
to give them away, as his whole story
so largely depends upon their preserva
tlon until the end. The result of all
these obscurites was that the present
reviewer was more baffled and less
concerned than he has been by any de-
tectlve story that he can remember.

exceptions, wildly presented to the

Jason Dufflt are excellent portraits.
