He turned to the left, and pro- ceeded ‘toward the end. On each ‘side were doorways, evidently the ‘entrances to the rooms ‘that fined this pyramid-house. He paused. Dark lumps lay be- fore ‘two ofthe doorways. He heard the sound of human ‘beings breath- ing-evenly. The red light from the central urn threw stabbing flashes about the walls and he caught glimpses of reflected light upon the Metallic equipment of the sleeping guards. ‘He retreated softly, and stole down the cortidor to the opposite end. ‘There ‘were no guards before the ‘dooorway.

This is the rumor that some of the boys have around, but it is hardly be- lieved since the Sluggers took the first half pennant without a strug- gle and are already ‘leading the second-half by nabbing the first real game of the season from the Stars in a 10-inning battle.
