She would have to go over to Monte
Carlo again, whether or no, and if
the blouse wasn't ready, she would
make that paunchy little man with the
tricky eyes give her back her money
Suppose he refused-suppose he said
she had never paid him any money?
So again she took the bus to Monte
Carlo, a trip that was becoming very
hateful to her.
This time she did not go any nearer
the Cafe de Paris than the bus-stop,
but headed straight for the Boulevard
DIES Moulins.

had taken her measurements who came

Monsieur was not here, he had gone

light began to break on her and she
produced the grubby little book in
which she had made her entries
Regarded -vous, Mademoiselle -
voila!"
Yes, Mary could see the entry for
herself and noted with satisfaction
that it was marked paid-but where
was the blouse?
The woman assured her it would
reach her in due time

Mary's dark suspicious crystalized.
She was helpless victim of Gallo

AL too soon Monday arrived-but
not the blouse.
They were getting excited about it
at the pension, too, for by this time
Mary Brown had shared her appre-
tensions with Madame and her daugh-
ter, who naturally were loath to be-
leve that such chicanery could exist
in their part of the world.
Her lovely holiday had been COM
pletely ruined. first by the ungallant
behavior of the sailor, and now this
tragedy of the blouse. She wished she
had never set eyes on Monte Carlo.
No doubt the whole thing was meant
as lesson to her.
Grim-lipped. she did her packing
that Tuesday morning, and directly
lunch was over and she had paid her
hotel bill, she made her way yet once
again, but definitely for the last time
to the all too familiar bus-stop.

afternoon. They were queued up in

New York Board Puts
Odd Angles in Title
Once HighIy-Prized
BY DREW MIDDLETON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-Jimmy
Grippe, the accomplished magician
who. manages Melio Bettina, has
performed his most amazing feat.
His charge will fight the aged Tiger
Jack Fox for the light-heavyweight
championship of the World-in New
York at least-Friday night in
Madison Square Garden.
To most fans the champion here
and in Nokomis is John Henry
Lewis, recently thumped by Joe
Louis The New York State Ath-
letic Commission has ruled him out
of the title, however, and the winner
of this one will be the worlds boss
as far as the commission goes.
The bout. which will crown a sue
cessor to the title once held by such
noted maulers as Jack Delaney,
Paul Berlenbach, Tommy Loughran
and Bob FitzSimmonS, has all the
goofy and engaging angles the cauli-
flower industry can supply.
Beacon Strong for Bettina.
For one thing, Fox is one of the
oldest men in the ring. Guesses on
the Spokane Negro's age range all
the way from 43 to 35. At any rate,
he has been around long, long
time. He has the funniest ring style
you ever saw The Tiger walks
around the ring like a man carrying
suit case in each hand Then
all OF sudden he lets punch go
If ne lands solidly, he can knock
any one down.
Up at Beacon, N. Y. Bettina's
home town, they are not thinking
of this. The citizenry reversed the
usual procedure yesterday and cele-
brated before the fight instead of
afterWard Melio is a native son
from way back
About 1900 will be down for the
fight. To man they believe Melio
will take care of Fox and then, if
there is demand for it. beat Lewis.
This optimism leaves Fox cold.
The Tiger thinks he can knock
Melio out. He may at that. When
last seen Melio was a big, willing
southpaw. He cannot punch much.
He can take a punch pretty we'll
and is fair enough in-fghter, but
around Broadway the boys don't
think he carries the guns to beat
the Tiger, who, since he has no real
style of his own, won't be bothered
by Melio's lefty stance.
Melio's Quality Doubtful.
"He won't hit Melio solid,' quoth
Grippe. You are rating Melio off
fights a year ago or even six months.
He has come along. swell since then.
And do you know they love him in
Beacon.
Why, when he works out the hall
is packed. The Mayor and every one
else is with him. He'll be the big
gest man in the Hudson Valley if he
beats Fox
Somebody said he probably
wouldn't because Fox hits too hard
and is hard to hurt He added,
heatedly, he had seen Melio against
mediocre opposition and Melio had
been something short of a whirl-
wind.
This stopped Grippe momentarily.
But as we left he was asking the
heckler to take a card-any card.

Batting Boost Seen
In New Tiger Role
By Higgins
Detroit's Park Is Ideal
For Riehthond Swineer
Ex-Bosox Believes
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, Jan. 31.-Michael
Frank (Pinky) Higgins, the new De-
troit Tiger third baseman, looked
over his future place of business to-
day and decided he was going to
like it here, especially after the snow
melts.
Higgins arrived Monday from his
home in Dallas along with the big
gest Detroit snowstorm in five years.
This is more snow than I've ever
seen before" he said. You can have
it," he added.
Great for Right Hand Hitter.
What Pinky likes about Detroit is
the left-feld wall out at Briggs Sta
dium. It's close enough to fatten a
right-handed hitter's batting aver
age, "just about the best layout in
the league" he said.
Last summer Higgins completed a
string of IL consecutive hits in
Briggs Stadium to break a major
league record.
Higgins signed his Detroit con-
tract Immediately. He was obtained
from the Boston Red Sox in ex-
change for Pitchers Eden Auker
and Jake Wade and Outfielder Chet
Morgan. Pitcher Arch McKain also
came from Boston in the deal.
Sees Four Club Race.
The 1899 major league race should
be among Detroit, Boston. Cleveland
and New York, he said. "Of course,
you would have to concede the YAM
KEGS an edge, unless something hap
pens to them" he declared. What
the other clubs will do is hard to
say. I think it will be dog fight
among the Tigers, Indians and Red
Sox."

Ace Mound Job
On Chisox Goal
Of Whitehead
Would Sacrifice Food
For Fame; Strotton
To Try New Leg
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Jan. 31.-John Hender-
son Whitehead. the large White Sox
pitcher with the yen for pork chops.
is ready to swap his healthy appetite
for baseball stardom.
The 29-year-old Texan says he
has the answer to the question of
who is going to replace the Inflated
Monty Stratton as the ace of the
Sox mound corps this summer.
Stratton lost leg in a hunting
accident near his Texas home late
last year after winning Is games
and losing 9 for Chicago during the
1888 season.
Word comes to Sox officials from
Whitehead's home that he is de-
termined to shave down his weight
and fulfill the bright predictions
made for him when he broke in four
years ago.
Big Disappointment So Far.
Il know I've been a big disap-
pointment to everybody so far" said
Whitehead. But this year I'm going
to be different. I'm going to step in
and take Monty Stratton's place as
the No. pitcher on the staff"
Whitehead won 13 and lost l3
games in his freshman year with the
Sox in 1885. This highly creditable
performance presaged a brilliant
| future for the young hurler. But
| Whitehead never has been able to
improve on that record to any ex-
| tent.
In 1886 he again won 13 and lost
the same number. The following
season he won II and lost and last
summer won 10 and lost II. Many
baseball observers said his love Of
food was running his big league
career.
Stratton Aims to HurI Again.
But while Whitehead plans to
turn over a new leaf, Stratton is
making serious plans to resume his
major league pitching career with
an artificial leg.
| President Lou Comiskey of the
| Sox received word yesterday that
experts on the matter had gone to
| StrattonS Greenvllle, Tex, home to
| consult with him on the best type
of aid for him.
Stratton has said repeatedly he
thought he could pitch big league
ball again and the recently released
roster of 1889 SoX players included
his name among the pitchers.
Whether he is able to pitch, club
officials have assured him of job
with the club The Sox and Chicago
Cubs will play a benefit game for
him here April IT.
