Big league ball players talk be-
tween themselves very much during
the game.
1t is mostly done in kidding way.
Most always the conversation has
nothing to do with base ball.
Some catchers try to talk to the
hitters in order to get their mind off
their work, and make them an easy
victim for the pitcher. Personally,
! do not believe in this. + feel as
though every catcher has enough to
do regarding his own work.

left my countrys soil. Twanted to
drink in, for the last time, the vital
air Of Manhattan, to see the hurry
ing people. And so, despite the fact
that policemen We're armed with a
description Of Robert Stickney
John Ainsley dined at the Trevor.
1t was a time when l should have
taken no risks whatsoever. And Ger
tainly it would be madness of me Il
add to the risk already run by in
truding upon the young couple who
sat at a table in the alcoye diagonal
ly across the Trevor dining-room.
Who was I, bearing my burdens,
to think that l could lift the weight
from another's shoulders? And yet
she looked like a girl whom l had
known a dozen years ago, a gnl
with whom I had gone to school.
She was a pretty girl. Her hair
was golden, her complexion pink
and white, her mouth sweet aud
gentle, and her nose was straight
and small enough to add a touch Of
ROBUSTNESS to her courtenance-
although, indeed, her present mood
held no gayety.
Her companion was about twenty
four, He was good-looking, and on
an occasion when he was less har-
assed than now, his face would have
seemed ingenious. This was no
lovers quarrel; this was no grief of
the ordinary sort which they were
sharing. Only some desperate turn
in the tide of their affairs could re
duce these naturally buoyant young
people to their present condition Of
despair.
Well under all the circumstances,
it was no business of mine. | paid
my checl: and started from the
room. 1t was necessary for me to
pass their table. And l heard the
girl say: Frank, you won't kill
YOURSELF"
Now nine hundred and ninety
nine times out of a thousand, the
person to whom such a question is
addressed has not the slightest in
tention toward self-destruction. But
there is always the thousandth case.
This boy had pride; it was leglbld
in his lips, in the CLEAN in his eyes,
the thin line of his nose. Such a
person might readily be proudly I'M
able to see any way out Of a diff
Guilty but the doorway to death. And
so, acting as always in my life, upon
impulse, | dropped into the seat be-
side him.
These alcoves in the Trevor were
furnished with broad benches whose
cushions would accommodate two
persons on each side of the table
The girl and the man sat, as though
for the extreme of privacy that the
recess afforded, against the wall, op-
posite each other. There was plenty
of room for me beside the youth
but not much welcome.
l raised hand to stop his angry
eXpostulation.
q want to talk to you," l sale
curtly.
The anger died out of his face tc
be replaced by a grimness hardly
credible in one so young.
Ii you try to arrest me here III

l smiled at him. "Do look like 9

IF you're not, why Go you in
