More than 20,000 leather-lunged fans were on hand, and the dim turned loose was deafening. Manager McGraw and his National league hopes were the first appear.

Thirty thousand voices joined in a rousing w come, Five minutes Iter the Boston Red Sox, led by Manager Jal Stahl, appeared. Several hundred Boston rooters, led by Mayor Fits gerald, rose en masse and joined in a vociferous welcome. Just before the players were ordered on the field, McGraw, who had been watching Mathewson warming up, announced a change in hi battery. He decided to pin his faith on big Jeff Tesreau, instead of Matbewson. The game by innings: FIRST INNING Hooper walked. Yerkes out, Doyle to Merkle. Speaker way, Hooper going to third.

It's north east of Unalaska, in the Aleutian group. And, by the same token, I'd have you know I’m the prince consort, and proud of it.” “You aré, then,” I sald, “yourself of royal blood?” “Devil « drop,” said McGlashan. “I'm the son of @ sea-farin’ dad, British by birth, but a citizen of these United Btates, ly you're goin’ to have the story out of me; so you'd best have pencil and paper handy and get the right of ft. and how you never get anything straight {f you can help it, and I've no mind to see meself in print as hailing from Timbuctoo or some other such outlandish hole. “It you're ready, I'll begin. I was a lad of 19 when I left Liverpool on a sailin’ schooner with me heart set on getting a skipper’s ticket “You needn't bother about what happened before I came to Als ka. It's enough to say that at 21 I was hunting sea otter in « bydarkia —which is a small canoe, if you don't know, made of sealskin, and y time you sneeze—around the island of Sanak, {sland of Atu, which is 700 Fh west of Akutan and the last of the group. His name was Anania Prokopiof, and he and his subjects were hunting otter, too. They had a camp on the shore, which was looked after by the Princess Feckla, a tall girl for a native, and as Winsome as any woman any- where, white or brown, “When I come in from the hunting, all wet and cold and tired, It was Feckla who bad a amile for me and a cup of black Russian tea, though her father liked me none too well at first “| couldn't speak the Aleut tongue, or Russian, either, and the princess knew no English, but there's a language ali young folke know when they're In love, and we knew from the first we were. “So | hunted ott and between times made love to Feckla, and in a month we were married. | took Feckla to Akutan, and the chief went hack wh he came from. “And that’s all there is to that part of ft. We've grown old to- gether, the princess and I, and she has worked and suffered with me, and we have had good times, too; and she has borne me 10 as fine boys and girls as you'll find anywhere north of 53—or south of it, for that atter.” % Physically small, he’s big every other way, as they'll tell you in Alaska, where everybody knows his name and fame. For nearly 40 years he’s ruled. over Akutan—he and Feckla-—who are mother and father, not only to the 10 princes and princesses, but to the 80-odd natives of the island as well. For McGlashan is the trader there for the Alaska Commercial Co, He outfits natives for the hunting and buys their furs when they re turn. Besides, he makes long trips to the other islands, buying furs, while Mrs. McGlashan tends the store. “You left her to come to Seattle “Aye, 1 made business an excuse, I'd read of the wonders of the world, but never seen them—the telegraph, the telephone, the sky- scraper, flying machines, automobiles, electric cars. And, besides, 1 wanted to see Bill Gauntlett—Capt. Gauntlett—that used to be col- lector of customs at Unalaska, and that everybody called ‘Pop.’ -He was a chum of mine. But I found him gone down Into Otegon some- where to live. “Yes cattle surprised me. Had me first automobile ride this morning ‘our tall buildings are pretty tall, but not as tall as moun ains, Never will | forget using one of your telephon Very wonder- ful.” All this without enthusiasm. “And you're going back on Wedn yor “Yes,” said Hughey MoGlashan, '@ a notion the queen misses me.
