It had not—his fafling to see his mother again—seemed possible. She had so looked forward to his com- ing, Marsha had written, because ‘the doctor had felt she would live months, and probably beyond the stretch of that specified year. And he would never see her again; his mother; a curious, flat fact it was, that numbed him. He had been whistling as Vicente came in, and thinking of Marsha. And then Vi- cente had come in to say something in his low-class Spanish of telegrams and Bob's heart had dropped. And only after a real effort could he oper the wire. “Absurd to feel so,” he had rea- soned at that moment. But it had not been “absurd to feel so.” “Love, Marsha Powers” .. , she was, what- e ise she was not, kind.

After he crossed the border, his mind began to stretch and to grope toward the normal where the strick- en suffer most acutely. He stared tragtcally from car windows, there, at some oaks and a tangle of under- growth. He would lose Marsha too, he realized. And not that he would hold’ her, or any woman, against her will.

But he would not let himself think of that, he decided. Even well balanced, it did strange thing: to him; that won- der, with the thought of her loving Tarleton. Loving Tarleton, perhaps, as he, Bob, had early dreamed that she some day might come to love him, How would she greet. him? (He heard “First call for Dinner”; he must eat, wanting to or not; but he’d wait a time). Would she leave the house immediately or was he to suffer once more that combination of misery and happiness which, since that day, had risem from the knowledge that she was close, but beyond the reach of his arms, no matter how close. Would she sleep in the next room, as she had? Or go forward to the lav- ender or the blue—guest room? He hoped she would stay. It seemed to him that that would rather finish the affair for his mother. If she stayed no one could “It was only a week after funeral that she went off; left him!” And so she would drag the little Vie torian lady into the mess. He realized as he neared New York, that he was afraid of the house, and all that its changed aspect would force upon him. He was so certain that it would be dif- ferent that he was surprised by the presence of small fir trees, which held forth a telegram, to Bob, Todd hoped it contain bad news. ‘How that would be!" he mur. — coming back to himself and ‘Ratural expression.

The Nats, rated-as! leading contenders for the pen-| § ant in the first of the season but; now fallen deep down into the second division, .got the pitching yesterday -and.that was all they needed. Bridges was the mound choice for the Cochranites, but was outpitched by Burke, who al- lowed the Tigers only five hits. Charley Ruffing, always a fine hurling bet for the local Yankees, was right enough yesterday to pitch a six-hit game and repeat the Nat-Tiger score, 9 to 2, over the hard-hitting Clevelanders. Dickey suffered a broken knuckle and Babe Ruth sprained his ankle. Otherwise everything was fine for the locals, as they gained a full game on the Tigers in league standings. Ted Lyon’s veteran pitching arm held out enough for him to equal Ruffing’s six-hit perform- ance yesterday by allowing the Boston Red Sox just that number of hits and winning for the White Sox by a count of 7 to 2. It must have been six-hit day yesterday for Buck Newsom, of the St. Louis Browns, also set the Athletics down with a half dozen safeties, but he went on to great-| er glory by batting out a double, two singles and getting a base on balls for a perfect day at bat. In- cidently the score was 3 to 0 in his favor. One of the Dean brothers was beaten by the Giants yesterday for the first timé this year and dark fate threw its shadow on the younger Dean, “Slightly Dizzy’ Paal. But it took a ninth inning home run by Joe Moore with two on to beat him. Hubbell started for the locals and all the Card runs. were scored off him. The fi- nal count was 5 to 3. Brooklyn’s Dodgerites beat the Chicago Cubs, despite Herman’s triple and homer, by scoring 9 to the Wrigleymen’s 4. With a fighting rally Pitts. burgh’s Pitates won a 6 to 5 ball game from the Phillies. Paul Waner pushed out a sacrifice fly with the winning run on third and that is all.

The Acevedo Stars will take on the Cuban Club and the Goodyear ten will wrestle with the Gates Stars in the doubleheader start- ing at 7:30. Now the Cuban Club was beat- en badly by the Y. B. S. C. in one of the opening games of the league and the Goodyear team is reported as weak as the Cuban Club. This makes it look as if the Acevedos and Gatesers are go-| ing to have walk-aways tonight.! On paper, that’s the dope, but in actual play there’s plenty of|f} questions left unanswered, Most games are decided on teamwork, especially in a newly-formed loop; as this one, and none of the five |}) teams entered in the Juni League have ever played together for any extent of time. So, though the Cuban Club and Good- year tens may look weak you can never tell when one of those youngster teams will suddenly start clicking and going places and it will be a mighty long time before we can definitely say who will come out on top in this loop. | So, you never can tell—untii to- 100 Cards and 100 Cards . .
