Vines Improves Accuracy.

THEY played efficiently and they
played well, but there was a GER
tain dreariness about the proceedings
that killed most everybody's interest
IN the result. Obviously, they are both
stronger and more fully rounded
players because of their tour. Vines
has sacrificed some of his speed in
favor of control and he can bang a
good shot down the side line with his
eyes shut. Still hitting the fastest ball
IN the business, he makes fewer errors
and appears to be better strategist.
Perry has learned to cope with Vines
speed, so far as that is possible. The
ball must be laid in spots where Vines
cannot get a full, square slug at it,
and Perry can hit those spots as
though he were shooting the pellet
out of gun. In other words, the boys
have improved and adapted them
selves to the point where the thing
becomes a stand-off again, and
Mexican stand-off, too, aside from the
money angle.
Their tour of the country has tired
them both. Perry looks pale and
drawn and some of the spring is gone
from his legs. Vines is listless. He
hits with the old power, but he does
1t by ear. Some Of the spontaneity is
missing. He doesn't always come
storming into the net to murder a soft
return as though he meant business.

but still got no reply. Then he, to. realized that the wind was whipping the sound away. Sudden alarm struck him. He couldn't see Barry, nor communicate with him
 He did peer over far enough to see Hades Jones running. And the two women were moving about and pointing up. But he was unable to deduce anything from that.
 He noticed motion in the rope, and quickly grabbed it.
 There were slight regular jerks for a bit. Then a Swaying pull, first right then left. In alarm he looked at the rocky edge where the rope disappeared. The fiber was indeed beginning to fray!
 Hoffman strained to pull it up to a fresh spot, lest it be sawed apart. But Barry was 8 heavy man, and friction at the rock was too great. Good Lord" Hoffman growled, genuinely alarmed now. He looked desperately around him.
 The man felt peculiarly help less. He did quickly decide to let out a few inches more of rope there wasn't very much left - and so put fresh place on the sharp rock edge. That lessened one dan- ger, he felt.
 He shotued again and again, but no answer. The alternate tighten ing of the rope indicated swing ing or swaying. Holliman's alarm As.,
 Then suddenly the rope slack ened. Hoffman fell back prone with the sudden give of it. He held it then, limp in his hands, and stared at it.
 "Uhnnnh" he literally groaned in despair, pulling the loose rope up few feet. Quickly he turned to go back toward their horses.

almost as prayer. The distance seemed much too great.
 In that instant, Mary Melissa knew that it mattered terribly.
 She knew that 1t mattered to
 <, personally, and irrevocably. She didn't phrase it, even to herself, as love. But she knew The tightening within her, the actual physical pain in her heart, was keener than 1t would have been if she saw a cas- ual acquaintance in danger.
 In the latter circumstance, she would have screamed. She might have run, and shouted advice, anything in her high alarm. But this feeling was different. Deeper, somehow, In the strain of the mo- ment she touched something di- vine = and prayed to 1t, mumbled her petitions without restraint or shame.
 More given to physical action in such emergencies, old Hades Jones had abruptly disappeared, run ming. Frankly, he had no idea what he would accomplish, but he hastened toward the trees at the foot of the great cliff. At least he would be on hand when Bob Barry fell.
 Honey Bee Girl, ebing of a less demonstrative race anyway, had uttered no words. She just waited.
 Her mtoher and her grandmoth- CTS for many generations back had felt no qualms at death. Neverthe- less, those same women had known what love-fo--a-m was. Robert Barry had been. kinder to Honey Bee Girl than any other white man, or any other red man for that matter, had ever been. Not the thought of death, as such, but the thought of danger to this particular man, caused some strange, unexplained reaction with in her. She watched and waited, breathing hard.
 But what of Scott Hoffman - he who had accompanied Bob to the cliff top and let down the rope?
 It hadn't taken his employer long to disappear over the edge of the cliff. Hoffman had warned him to be careful, but in Bob Barry was the supreme confidence of young physical strength.
 HolliInan could see nothing after Bo;o disappeared. The rim curved precariously for six or eight feet before the edge was reached, and he dared not try to peer over at Bob. He had just let the rope out slowly as instructed, then held it, snubbed, when 1t was almost gone.
 It occurred to him that he hadn't been told when to pull his boss back up. He wasn't sure he could pull him back anyway. The cliff edge was of sharp jagged rock. It would cut into the rope, maybe sever it.
 This thought suddenly startled Hoffman.
 He made sure that his end of the rope was tied, then went as close to the edge as he dared. MT. Barry!" he called.
 No answer. Hoffman yelled it

LINE OPPOSING
 WRECK CLAIMS
Seattle Post-Intelligencer)

 An attempt to prove that a faulty ships compass was to blame for the wreck of the steamer Denali in Southeastern Alaskan waters, May 19, 1885, was indicated recently in the Alaska Steamship Company's suit in Federal Court to limit it's liability for the vessels loss.
 This line of action was revealed by attorneys for the United States Government and shippers in their cross examination of Capt. William Mcdonald.
 The mariner, who was the Den ali's master year before the wreck, but not at the time she went down with a total loss of her cargo, was questioned closely about methods of navigating the Inside Passage and particularly as to the accuracy of the ships compass.
 The Government is seeking to re- cover from the company $49 900, the value of Federal road supplies lost in the wreck. Representatives ot shippers seek recompense for S325,- 900 worth of cannery supplies and general merchandise.
 The Alaska Steamship Company is seeking to limit it's liability to freight prepair on the cargo, amounting to slightly less than s1,- 200
