- If the American loaguo only
wer composed of Junt the Hen-
iJ utora and the Athletics, life would
be nothing but a long, sweet
dream for the hireling of Prof.
CornelluB McOilllcuddy. The aaplr
injc Mackinen have played at a
.650 clip ngalnnt tlio either six
clubs, but have a vent Red a neat
.91i3 against Walter Johnaon's en-
itry, which many picked to win the
i(- Barnard pennant. Their record is
J" 13 out of 20 against the league in
general, 12 out of 13 agulnst their
Washington cousins.
$ Tho Athletics shifted the scene

jfi flhnde the Senators by 4 to for
j the eleventh straight Philadelphia
jf victory, nine of which have neon
2 at the expense of the selfsame
jf Senators.
f The victory maintained the Ath
letics comfortably ahead of their
field, four games in front of the
BrownH, who shaded Cleveland by
1 to 0, and five and one-half, to
tho fore of the Yankees and the
Tigers, who rested Jn a virtual tie
for third place. Old Red Fnber
applied the one-hit treatment to
the Tigers in Chicago to win by

The Ace of Sondes.
One of the headlines I had- no
ticed In the mine again caught my
eye and I read the paragraph be
neath 1t:
ANOTHKR HOI-DPP AT LPNDY'S
WHERK IS THK LAW?
Ten thousand in gold and cash
were stolen from Mr. Joe l-umly s
safe enrly this morning. This Is
the fourth of a series of thefts and
hold-ups in Lundy's Place in the
past three months, and it is by far
the largest amount yet taken. The
town Is in a fine state when a man
cannot conduct a respectable busi
ness venture without being subject
outrages of this sort, and the
Firebrand calls on Deputy Sheriff
Hillings to do his duty. The Fire
brand has It on good authority that
Mr. Lundy has brought an expert
from San Francisco to see what's
what; nnd he has ordered his men
to shoot to kill! CitlKens of Tor
ridity, look to your gold! And your
guns! (We know of half a dozen
good ropes itching to stretch the
hombre's neck. Joe. Ye Kd.)
The item wa interesting nnd ; square meal since Sunday morn-
amusing and something of a side-1 ing."
PAT PADKLFOUD
One of the largest fight crowds
this season is expected tonight at
the armory to see Pat Padelford,
Mod ford boxer. In action against
Kd Kdlemann of Bend for six
rounds, one of four six-round
events scheduled for tho evening.
The principals have been working
out hard for some time and boxing
fans are pro.mlsed action In every

Another big feature of the card

Jackie McCoy of this city and

Thrusting her aside, I rushed In
to my den and took up the tele
phone. Deacon was In his office.
"What have you done with Lucy
and Jerry?" 1 bawled at him.
"They are not here, John." tie
said in a troubled voice. "I don't
know where they are, John. They
are not here. Tho boy hasn'f given
himself up. We haven't seen either,
of them."
1 hung up the receiver, ait empty
feeling about my heart. If I hadn't
put the Instrument down I should
have dropped it. My logs benmi to
tremble and f collapsed into a
chair. They hadn't been . seen!
Where were they? What had.h'tp-'
pened? Yenterday afternoon they
had had plenty of time! That sand
storm? O o o d (iod! Nonsense!
They were safe somewhere! But
where? Why hadn't they tele
phoned ? t
Mrs" M of fit was In the room. She
began to weep.
"Mr. Peebles! there's something
the matter Miss Lucy they
hawn't tunu'1 up " she was be
ginning. I stopped her shortly. "There's
nothing wrong! The children will
bo home tomorrow. What have
you got for supper?'
She must have believed me for
after a sniffle or two she dried her
eyes and gave mo her melancholy
smile.
'A beefsteak .pie and a caramel
pudding."
"Excellent. 13 a r 1 y. please," I
went on briskly. "I haven't had

the first basolmll (tunic of the sea
son. Despite a chilly breeze that
swept the crandMlnnd. there was!
a goodly crowd, which loft 78 at
the Bate. . The' contest turned out j
better financially than expected, ac
cording to ManaKCr Paul Taylor.
There were plenty of hits and
errors, and the score see-sawed.
Both teams showed lack of prac-.
tlce and teamwork. Jack Hughes
pitched for Medford. Three or
four times ho would strike out a
couplo of men in ah inning, and
then the hobbling would start.
The official storekeeper gave up
in disgust when the mlts and nils
cues became plentiful. .
The flame teams probably will
play at the fairgrounds again next
Sunday. In the meantime. Oranls
Pass and fllendale are negotiating
to form a combination team. "
The temperature was so frigid
yesterday that J. Court Hall, for
the first time In his life, left a bull
game before tho final out. Mr.
Hall asserted that ho nearly froze
tu death.

C1en rnjtn wanted at th Mall
Tribune office! If
light on conditions of that day, but
nothing more, apparently, and why
it should occur to mo that there
might be a connection between Mr.
Lundy's misfortune and Andrew's
death I couldn't for the Hfo of mo
tell. But the notion had got Into
my head and there It stuck., ',
"Listen to this, Henry." I read!
the Item to him.
"Pity the poor devil If they found i
him." he muttered grimly. "Tor-!
ridity was one wild town from what!
I hear." . . !
Of my feeling that the item!
might have bearing upon the mat
ter whith occupied our minds I
said nothing. Henry Is intolerant
of feelings.
Pitchfork Canyon, to which we
presently came, had lost none of
h grim terror, but we managed
the ascent without disaster In
something under two hours. It was
three o'clock when wo reached Hun
Felipe. Deacon dropped mo at a
downtown corner, muttering some
thing about seeing inn later. He
hod been in a gloomy mood ever
since we left Torrldlty and I had
attributed it to hWt bewildered state
of mind. Henry had been" so sure
of certain things, regretfully sure,
It Is true, but sure, nevertheless,
and our discoveries had shaken his
conclusions more than ho had ad
mitted. Needless to say, his per
plexity had delighted me and I had
let him alcne.
Hailing a taxi. T settled Into It,
keenly anticipating tho Joyful re
union before me. I had expected
Deacon to insist on driving me
home and I was relieved when ho
didn't, for I wanted tho children to
mvttelf. My longing for n sight of
Lucy's Lce had become almost a
physicarachc and I could hardly Hit
still on my seat. Lucy had come
to me as a little thing, but I had
never dreamed that she would ever
fill my heart as completely as she
did. One of these days I won hi
lose her. The realization twisted
my heart, but I knew I could rec
oncile myself to It. Jerry was a
fine lad, too.
Jf only Andrew had lived to see
th flowering of these young liven:
But he hadn't and we had Mill to
clap a rope around the nefk of the
devil who had killed him. Well, in
a little while now. surely . , .
I began to think nf what we'd
have to say to one another, Jerry
and Lucy and I. What with Jer
ry's mad flight to Torrldlty, Lucy's
dnAng pursuit of hiin, my own ex-!
perlences In the town, and the dis
coveries Deacon and I hud made in
the mine, we'd have enough to keep
'Oir tongues wagging until mld
inght. Mrs. Moffil met me at the door.
"Where is Lucy?" I demanded,
pushing Into the house.
"I don't know, Mr. Peebles. I
haven't heard u word of her since
( went 'to Circle Sunday morning.
Nor you, neither. Nor Mr. Jerry.
And what with the fiouse being
hroken into and your lovely door
ruined simply ruined and thr
police doing nothing about It "
"Not here! Not here!" I shouted.
"Xnnen?e, unman! Of course they j
are here!" I
"Indeed they are not!" sh wept
hysterically. "And" 1 haven't en
Miss Lucy sipco Sunday niomihK-
Brushlng her out of the den, I
went to my bedroom and began to
prepare for my bath. But my mind
was still In a ferment of apprehen
sion; at moments,- actual dread pos
sessed me. Should I start out io
look for them at once? Should I
ralso a general alarm? Or should
1 leave It entirely to Deacon? When
1 found myself standing in the bath
tub with my shoes on I derided It
was time I made up my mind. I
would plvo them "until noon to
morrow. If they hadn't turned up
then Pd start back for Torrldlty
In a hired car.
Cleansed of the grit of Skull Val
ley, I got Into clean linen and a
fresh suit. I was fumbling for my
billfold In. the right-hand hip pock
et of the trousers J had taken oif
when my blood suddenly turned
cold In my veins. My blllinhl was
there right enough, but there vh,h
something else with it, tho stulHtor
