slip to the floor as she stood with

over her heart, staring at her hus-
band.

murderess!" He stopped as though
the word choked him, then putting
his hand to his throat, flung the &C.
cusation at her again.
''Murderess!"
Eulalia took wavering step to-
ward him, her hands outstretched
as though to ward off bludgeons,
then sank at his feet.

TIPS to
Gardeners
Young Garden Care

THE value of a garden plant,
l. vegetable or flower, depends
greatly upon the start it gets: so
give the seedlings ample care.
Begin cultivation as soon as
rows are visible, if the soil is not
wet. Work close to the small
plants, cultivating shallower as
they grow to avoid injury to root
growth.
Cultivate at least once a week.
Watering should not be neces-
sary the first week or ten days
after seeds have sprouted. Later,
young plants may be watered one
of two ways: Mark a shallow
trench about four inches from the
row and run it full of water. Or,
using a fine spray, apply water
from directly above plants. Wa
tering is most effective when it
closely follows cultivation.
Small plants should be thinned,
as directed on packets, to allow
proper development. Certain veg
etables may be used as thinned.
For instance, onions thinned may
be used as green onions, and let
tuce may be picked for immediate
use, leaving smaller leaves to de-
velop. ....-.

social pleasures of the preside; the
clam bakes and the dances, the Cos
sip with other women of the colony.
Sometimes in the midst of some
simple gaiety she would pause, and
her mind would grope as though to
remember something. Then she
would recall her grievance, and
withdraw into herself,
California! Here she was, after
two yearsl And she had vowed she
would be in Mexico City before
that! She would wiring her hands
helplessly. There was nothing to do.
Nowhere to turn. Junipero Sierra
=. she shuddered. He was in his
grave. And Nicolas Soler, with his
wild dreams of the governorship,
had slowly but surely gone blind
and returned to Mexico. Surely, all
who had crossed Junipero Sierra suf-
fered.'
And Indizuela :. often she
looked at the girl, issome, brown,
mysterious, who served her master
the Governor, like dog, and won
dered. Something might be done
there
But days, months, years slipped
by, and nothing happened.
Nothing happened to Eulalia. She
sat in front of her mirror and
scanned her black tresses for silver
threads, frowning, with sick fear
at her heart.
But events marched, nevertheless,
around the lady. And though she
was unaware of them, their inf1u-
ence reached her, penetrated her
defenses.
Eulalia Cells de FACES found the
white hair she had feared finding,
set her teeth, pulled it, then wept
on her husbands breast in the CUB
ernatorial bed. And the Governor
smiled, and liked it.
Pedro FACES went about long de-
layed and heart-breaking plans for
the mission to Santa Barbara, and
still another, Mission La Purisima.
He wrote scathing diatribes on the
laziness, bestiality, gambling, prof
legacy and immortality of a little
pueblo, Ell Pueblo de Nuestra Sonora
de Porciuncula la Reina de Los An
geles, which the natives called Los
Angeles. (The diatribes did no
good.)
On a bright sunny day in August,
1874, about the time that Eulalia
gave birth to her California flower,
there was great hubbub in the
harbor of New York city. All the
notables of the new nation were at
hand to greet distinguished visi-
tor, who, with a love for the young
country in his young heart, had
travelled across the ocean to pay a
visit of congratulation. There were
public receptions, congressional
honors. George Washington extend
ed the hospitality Of Mount Vernon
to the guest.

Double PLAY Expert

Baseball men say that Joe Tinker,
immortal shortstop of Frank
Chances old Cubs, and the man
who started the 'Tinker-to-Evers-to-
Chance" brand of double plays may
be back in the game again this year
either as a manager or coach.
A little over a year ago Joe Tinker
was near death of Bright's disease
down in Florida. Physicians had
just about given him up, when some
baseball pals came to the rescue.
Joe Strip, now of the Brooklyn
Dodgers, was one of them. He told
Tinker he had a job for him as
an instructor in his baseball school
when he recovered. That was the
best medicine Joe had had. He got
well and less than two months after
his life was despaired of, he was
actually teaching youngsters in
Strips school last year.
Later that year he managed the
Orlando Gulls of the Florida State
league and when the financial sup
port of the club gave out, he trav-
eled to Chicago for reunion of
old-time Cub stars,

CHAPTER XVIII

The Lady Governor, La Gober-
MADEIRA, returned to Monterey with
her husband in a pleased, unusual
and utterly unaccountable state of
complete subjugation.
Unaccountable, at least, to his
Excellency: If Dona Eulalia had a
confidante, and having one, confided
in her, much might have been
learned. But the Governor went his
way with a little sense of guilt after
his outburst in San Francisco, and
enjoyed the favors of his docile wife
greatly. He enjoyed watching her
nurse the child, who fiourished like
a wild-fower; he enjoyed seeing her
beauty re-blossom; and watched the
airs of the Monterey peninsula give
his lady's cheeks a clarity and glow
that had never graced them before.
The lady herself drifted for two
whole years in this state of docility.
She even grew to enjoy the simple

the short end of z to odds against
Tommy Farr. Everybody expected
him to take a licking. Instead he
pounded out a decisive victory over
the rugged Welshman.
Max has been called "the man
who could fight but wouldn't" He
apparently wanted to fight the night
he met Farr. 1t was his battle all
the way. He slammed Farr to the
canvas three times in fifteen rounds.
Joe Louis and Jim Braddock weren't
able to put Tommy down once.
Winning back the prestige he lost
when he was so ingloriously beat
en- by Joe Louis two years ago, Baer
showed he could take it as well as
dish it out. Farr hit Baer aplenty.
Max's left eye was completely
closed before the fight ended. But
his immunity to punishment bears
out Joe Louis contention that he hit
Baer harder than he had ever hit
any other man and still couldn't
knock him out. You will recall
that Max took the route of a techni-
cal knockout that time, although
ringsiders said he was far from I'M
conscious.
So Max is now on the way back.
He did more than pull himself level
with Schmeling in the heavyweight
runner-up class in taking the de-
cision over Farr. He reminded the
fans of the arrogant Baer who wal
loped Schmeling and the deadly
right hand puncher who battered
Camera down to win the champions
ship. It looks inevitable that Baer
will have another chance at Louis.
