Tho Mackmen regained the peak by, defeating Sammy Gray and the Krowns at sportsman's park yes terday,, 2 to 0. Georgo Walfoerg let the Browns down with one . hit and fanned Six. I The rumble of Yankee heavy, artillery once more is disturbing j the peace and "quiet of American league cities. The chnmpions havo! registered 39 hits In their last three games, and have won all of I them. Three homers, by Gehrig i on Saturday and one by Ruth on Saturday and another yesterday, paved tho way for two Yankee: victories over the "Whito Sox, 11 ' to 9 and 8 to 3. Waito Hoyt was derricked on Saturday for tho first time this season, but George Pip gras yesterday gained tho distinc tion of being tho first Yankee pitcher other than Hoyt, to go the route this spring. The Sox prodded Pipgras for 10 bits, and George himself helped the oppo sition along with five passes, but he was strong in the pinches. Eleven W hit. Sox were left stranded. tWashlngtori still is unable to have a good hitting afternoon si multaneously with a first-rate pitching exhibition by any mem ber of the Senatorial staff.

After trouncing tho clan Mc Graw by 10 to 7 in 10 innings on Saturday, the Cardinal: came right back yesterday with a pair of late rallies, which netted a 9 to 7 victory. . Tho Sabbath triumph pulled the Cardinals back into o tie for second with the Cubs, who had stolen a March by beating tho Phillies twice on Saturday, but who were forced to sit Idly ny venterdnv as the Cards threw the Giants. Burleigh Orimes led tho Pirates to a 7 to 2 victory over tho Braves at Boston, pulling the buck bav band-down within reacn Ing distance of the Cubs nnd the Cardinal!;.

It has been estimated that the tltle jholder, since he toppled the crowft from. Mike Lnllertno's swarthy brow here in December, 192.1, has reaped more than $175,000 from the ring. Morgnn hns held on to his earn ings more or less closely. Several had investments took a share, but the remainder he has laid away for the future.

CHAPTER 7. loiter Ijutiier MaoN'uti. Tho. Kreneh window was holtrd nnd tho curtains were drawn, but 1 saw the dark nlur of 1-ucy'H head against the back of my armrftntr, "Iucy! This Is ITncle' John!" 1 Thpre was no respoiuse at first; then her head inclined toward thej window. "I am alone. Tct mo in.' ' She got, up slowly nnd came to the window. "Has he gone?" Her voice was muffled. ' - Yes. Open the window," 'I won't give them up!" sho de clared hysterically. "Now, dear," I said briskly, after I entered the room, "wo are going to face this thing with clear brains and brave hearts. Where nro those keys?" Lucy's dark eyes flashed, eloquent and dcriiml. ''I won't give' them Hp!" Hho. stormed. i- . . -r, "liut you must! peacon knows, you havo them. Tou won't help) Jerry by keeping them back. And-r j we've got to havo Deacon's co-i operation.". ' ' ' " "But I followed you, Undo John, j I heard what Captain Deacon wild ' to you. I didn't understand It nt all f you haven't told mo anything, yet hut ho thinks Jerry killed hiH father." Sha broke off, shuddering, nnd began to weep ngaln. I took her firmly by tho (moulders. "Now see here, Lucy! Crying won't got Jerry out of this mens. Von must buck up and show us the kind of Mtnfr vmi m-n mnrln if" Ami buck up she did, forthwith, j of n hnndkerchli'f that wouldn't have stopped my ear. "Nothing has happened to Jerry yet, and If we keep our heads, nothing will, (iive mo those keys." They wcro under the cushion of my chair and after' much wriggling we dug them out. "You don't believe Jerry did It, Uncle John?" "Of course not." "Neither you nor Rtlmson saw Jerry's face or heard his voice." "I didn't,". I admitted. "Hut I snw Jerry's whito trousers, tho white sweater you gave him Inst Christmas,, nnd the pulled-down Panama hat he bought Inst week. And these are his keys. Moieover, Hubbard heard Jerry's voice In the library twenty minutes before ' Luey put her fingers on my lips. "It was Somebody elso you saw In Jerry's clothes, Undo John." I had frlvcn this possibility some thought, hut I knew If I hadn't been very fond of Jerry I wouldn't have wasted my time on it. "That would Imply willingness on Jerry's part to. lot someone eltjo have them," 1 observed, "nnd he wns wearing them when Hubbard saw him nt six o'clock. This opened wider fields of speculation and we fell silent. Suddenly Lucy took my faco be tween her hands; her eyes were alight. "What Is It, deor?" "Luther MocXair, tho detective, Uncle John! Vou must got him to take the case for Jerry." "MacNalr!" I cried, aghast. "Why not? You told me he Is known all over the country. You sold he solved nearly every case he undertook. "MacNalr has retired," I ob jected. "He'd probably refuse to help us." "But he mightn't," Lucy pleaded. "We could ask him." Her eoo,u-nt eyes pinned me down. How could I tell her of my unholy fear that MacNalr might add- Jerry to his tragic number of murderers? Indecision held me In ! torment nnd then my faith re newed Itwif nnd courage Illumi nated the blackness of my soul. "Very well," I said. "We'll nek him." Lucy flung her soft nrms around my neck and kissed me. "Yon dear!" she cried. "Como on! We'll go right away." "My dear child! The man wllj huvn been In his bed for hours. Ixiok at tho time!. Twelve o'clock! Off to bed with you." She slipped to her feet and stood : facing me pityingly, hands on htr slender hlpn. "You'd make a fine detective! Don't you know they always get on the ground nt owe? If you don't come with mo thin minute, L'ncle. John. I'll go alone!" That settled it, of course. Mac-' Nulr's bouse Is a shabby old stucco place set In a lovely garden two blocliH below ourti. lie was having a hum porch built on to It and we had to pick our way through a Jumlilo of builders materials. I.ucy rang the bell nnd soon wo heard footstep In the ball. A light K&apped on, the door wa.s flung open and Luther MuoNalr stood beforo us. Ho was none too pleused to sec us. "Hello, there, ' ho growled. "I was just going to bed " "I nm sorry to disturb you 'nt this hour," t said apologetically. "Hut the reason of our call Is rather serious. This Is my niece, Lucy. Mr. MacNnir, Lucy. "We nro dt-ard fully uiiset about this tragic affair at tho Ogrtons. Tho i police neem to think Ogdcn's son, had something to do with .lorry, it." "Indeed!" "Yes. My niece nnd young Jerry are greatly attached to each other.: As a matter of fact, they are en- j gaged " j "Yes, yes!" he interrupted, Irrl-; tably. "Hut what's It got to do with me?" j "Your reputation followed you. here, Mr. MacXalr." 1 said humbly. "Wo came to consult you." I "To consult mo! I told you nnd Deaoon I was out of this sort of thing," . -' "To bo sure," I stammered. "Hyt I thought the matter is sq urgent we. hoped you might bo t per suaded " i "Won't you take hold of it for us, Mr. MacNalr?" Lucy broke in pleadingly, her dnrk eyes more eloquent than I had ever seen them. Ho seemed to think rapidly for a moment, "Come Inside," he suld curtly, Wo followed him Into a library nnd ho offered us chairs In front of ; a fireplace with a red ember or j two still glowing In tho grate. Ta per sticks and n log soon started a crackling blaze nnd MucNnir drew up a third chair. . Tho re flection from the flro softened his lean, hard face; the swarthy skin, the high cheek bones nnd silt of a mouth, tho deep, penetrating eyes. As I studied tho man, neither lik ing nor disliking him, it fame over me that we had come to tho right place. If any man on earth could put his finger on Ogdon'rt mur derer It wns Luther MacNalr.
