Iwcama at once aagor and anzloua and urgont to have tor aoclary. , Tbla lla tared ma, for I perceived no trap, )and 1 lunocontiy and gratefully accepted thflr ioritatlon. I waa given an allay all to myvelf. Tha boy a explained tba game to me, and tbey alto explained to me tout there would be an hour1, play and that the player wbo acored tba fewest ten atrlkea In the hour would have to provide oyster, and beer for the combination, Tbla disturbed me vary aerlously, since It promised ma bankruptcy, and I was aorry that tbla artall bad been overlooked In the be ginning. But my pride would not ol low mo to back out now, so I stayed In and did what I could to look satis fled and glad I bad come. It Is not likely that I looked aa contented aa I wanted to, but the others looked glad enough to make up for It, for tbey were quite unable to hide tbelr evil Joy. Tbey showed mo bow to atand and bow to atoop and how to aim tbe ball and bow to let fly, and tben the game began. The results were astonishing. In my Ignorance I delivered the balls In apparently every way except tbe rlghtl one, but., no matter during half an hour I never started a ball down the alley .that didn't score a $n strike very time at the other end. Tbe oth ers lost tbelr grip early and tbelr joy along with It Now and tben one of them got a ten strike, but tba occur rence waa so rare that It made no ahow alongside of my giant score. Tbe boys au (Tendered at the end of tbe naif hour and put on tbelr coats and ptbered around me and la courteous bat sufficiently definite language ex pressed their opinion of an experience worn and seasoned expert wbo would stoop to lying and deception In order to rob kind and well meaning friends wbo bad put their trust In him under tha delusion that be waa honest and honorable. ' I waa not able to convince them that I bad not lied, for now my character waa gone, and tbey refused to attach any value to anything I said. Tbe proprietor of tbe place stood by for awhile saying nothing; then bs eame to my defense. Ha said: "It looks Ilka a mystery, gentlemen, but It Isn't s mystery after It'a explained. That U a grooved alley; you've only to start a ball down It any way you please and the groove will do tho rest; Jit will slam the ball against tbe northeast curve of the bead pin every time, and nothing can aave the ten from going down." It waa true. The boys made tba ex periment, and they found that there waa no art that could send a ball down that alley and fall to score a ten atrike with It When I had told those boys that I knew nothing about that game I waa speaking only the truth. But It was ever thus all through hearer hadn't strength of mind enough to believe lt.-From Mark Twaln'a Antoblgrapby in North American Be- Tiaw. ! The Cenduetor Courteous. , St. John's, N.
