teur Ssmi-Flnal
EVANS TOPS KMEPPER, s UP

BrooIsline. Mass. Sept. 7.--Jesse
Sweetser, of New York. gave the big
gallery that followed him and Bobby
Jones In their semi final match In the
amateur tournament terrific shock by
being 8 up on the Atlanta star at the
finish Of the morning round OF play.
Sweetser picked up all of his ad.
vantage on the first nine, being up at
the turn. Eight Of the next nine were
halved, Jones getting his only advan-
tage on the seventeenth green.
Sweetser's medal was the finest that
has been turned UP by any one In the
tournament. He went around In W
strokes. two under par. Jones' "a was
excellent. and would have given him
the advantage against anything but the
phenomenal sort of ,Aooting that the
New Yorker was doins.
Chick Evans. of Chicago, was six up
on Rudy knepper. Of Sioux City, at the
finish of their morning round Of the
semi final. l r.
lie took the lead at the very first
hole and kept 1t right along. The
only hole taken by the Sioux City man
in the first nine was the. final one,
where Chick missed three foot putt
and conceded the hole.
Evans started out on the last lap
by making q bird on the tenth hole
and another on the twelfth. Knepper
picked up hole on the thirteenth, but
lost it again on the fifteenth. ..r
There were three stymies laid In this
match. just as there was in the Tolley.
Knepper match yesterday.
A large gallery of college men and
alumni of the institutions represented
followed the players. Among them were
Charley Buell., captain of the Harvard
football team. and Tacks Hardwick, a
Crimson star of some years ago.

 Antony nodded quickly. That was like t?" he said.
 Exactly"
 Yes" He got up and squeezed Bllfs arm. Well just go and see about Cayley. and then we'll get nov ing. I shall be in the library"
 Right"
 Bill nodded and walked off in the direction of the pond. This was glorious fun, this was life The in. mediate program could hardly be bet tered.
 To Antony, who was older and who realized into what deep waters they were getting, it did not seem fun. But it was amazingly interesting It was like looking at an opal, and dis covering with every movement of 1t some new color. some new gleam of light reflected, and yet never really seeing the opal as whole. His brain could not get hold of It.
 But there were moments when he almost had it . and then turned away from 1t. He had seen more of life than Bill. but he had never seen murder before, and this which was in his mind now, and to which he was afraid to listen, was not just the hot hlooded killing which any man may come to if he lose control. It was something much more horrible. Too horrible to be true. Then let him look again for the truth. He looked again-but 1t was all out of focus.

 Antony tried to put himself in Cay ley's place-Cayley. when Antony had first discovered him, hammering at the door and crying, Let me in." Whatever had happened inside the office. whoever had killed Robert, Cayley knew all about it. and knew that Mark was not inside, and had not escaped by the window. But 1t was necessary to Cayleys plans-to Marks plans if they were acting in concert--that he should be thought so to have escaped. At some time, then while he was hammering (the key in his pockeD at the locked door, he must suddenly have remembered with what a shock that a mistake had been made. A window had not been left open!
 And then Antony's sudden appear ance: Here was a complication. And Antony suggesting that they should try the window Why. the window was just what he wanted to avoid No wonder he had seemed dazed at first.
 An. here at last was the explana- ton why they had gone the longest way round-and yet run. It was Cayley's only chance of getting a start on Antony. of getting to the windows first, of working them open somehow tefore Antony caught him up. Even if that were impossible, he must get there first. just to make sure.
 So he had run. But Antony had kept ,,y with hiy1 Tbev had hrokop in the window together. and gone into the office. But Cayley was not done yet There was the dressing room window! But quietly, quietly. An tony mustn't hear.
 And Antony didn't hear. Indeed, he had played up to Cayley splendidly. Not only had he called attention to the open window, but he had care fully explained to Cayley why Mark had chosen this particular window. And Cayley had agreed that probably was the reason. How he must have checked to himself!
 They were outside on the lawn again now. Bill and Antony, and Bill was listening openmouthed to his friends theory of yesterdays happen ings. It only gave them another mystery to solve.
 Whats that?" said Antony.
 Mark Where's Mark? If he never went into the office at all, then where is he now?"
 T don't say that he never went into the office. In fact, he must have zone. Elsie heard him." He stopped and repeated slowly. "She heard him-at least she says she did. But if he was there, he came out again by the door,"
 Well, but where does that lead you?"
 "Where it led Mark. The passage"
 DO you mean that he's been hid ing there all the time?"
 Antony was silent until Bill had re- peated his question, and then with an effort he came out of his thoughts and answered him.
 Wed better make certain. Could you be sleuth- hound Bill-one of those that travel on their stomachs very noiselessly? I mean, could you get near enough to the pond to make sure that Cayley Is still there, with out letting him see you?"
 Rather" He got up eagerly You wait

Why, that was what Mark said," he cried.
 "Mark?"
 "Yes. What Elsie heard him say"
 "Oh, that"
 Yes suppose she couldn't have made a mistake, Bill? She did hear him?"
 She couldn't have mistaken his voice. If that's what you mean
 "Oh?"
 Mark had an extraordinary char acteristic voice."
 "Oh."
 Rather pitched, you know. and--well. one can't explain, but"
 "Yes?"
 Well, rather like this, you know, or even more so If anything" He rattled these words off in Marks rather monotonous, high pitched voice, and then laughed, and added in
