"After you were taken out of the game today, what did you do?" "I walked around a bit, took a drink, and then hefted some of the l)at.s. Just kept Koin r. to work off the resentment I felt for bein},' tak- en out." 'Why did you k" near ll;e Chi- cago dou^outV" "No reason. I wasn't even think- ing about where I was goinj; â€" just walking it of. You'd be sore your- self, wouldn't you?" "I'm askinj; the (|aestioii\" "Well, tl-.at was all," Doyle ans- wered and studied the serious faces of the othi r men. A glance of amus- ed recognition flashed in his eyes as he spotted Terry and said, "I owe you an apology, old man." Never mind your personal af- fairs." Kelly stoppe I any veering away from the subje t. "Did you know Dirkin?" "Only as a ball player." "Did you know that he preferred a special bat ?" 'T think every ball player aiul fan knew that,' Doyle reylied. "Would you recognize the bat?" "No." '.Did you see that bat to-day?' "I wouldn't know. I wasn't look- ing for anything when I went over there today; I was just working off steam.' Off To a Good Slart With An Affecting All- Purpose Fror': "Where were you when Drikin fell?" "On the bench." "What did you do after he fcir.'" "Stayed on the bench." â- â€¢Can you prove that?" "Yes. Shorty Dugan was sitting beside me and we were together all through the excitement. Pop Clark told us to stay where we were, so I stayed,' he said with a grin toward Pop. "Did you see the bat wlicn Dirkin dropped it?" "I didn't notice. Aftti the smack, I watched the ball as it soared over the field. It was a sure homer un- les.s some miracle happened." "You got your miracle. Dirkin dropped dead," Kawlins, the Chi- cago manager, said bitterly. Kelly went to the <loor and called for Shorty Dugaii. "Where were you." Kelly boRan when Dugan came in, "when' Dirk- in went to tlie bat?" "I was on the bench lu.'it to Doyle." \ "Tell me wliat liapiunod." â- 'When Dirkin socked it, both Doyle »nd I lose, watching the ball. You know how it i.s: you are always afraid of a homer. The next thing I knew Dirkin was down and the crowd was pouring out onto the field. Pop came by and told us to stay where we were, ami we stayr'I together until the gair.e was calleil off." "Do you know what happened to the bat Dirkin was using?" "No. I never even thought about it." "When did yon leave Doyle?" "We waited until the first excite- ment was over an:l then went into the clubhouse together." "Can you account for Doyle's lime since then?" Shorty considered .i iiionienl. "We were t.-iking showers at the same time and then after we were dress- ed we all set arouiiil and talked. I guess I can vouch for h'.'.v." "It's a lucky break for Doyle. That will be all. Dugaii " After Dugan li:'.d gonn out, Kelly said to I.arry, "You certainly are the alibi kid, all right. I never saw anybody gel out of a had-lookiiig fix as easily as you do." 'Perhaps it is because lliere is no reason why I shinibln't." I.arry said and stooil up. "Okay, luii nloiig,' Kelly ilisniis>- ed him.

I want to know what he knows that you and | I don't. Now get out, all of you." After they had yone, Kelly said. "Well, Burke?" "But, Mr. Kelly," Terry started his argunu-nt, "what could 1 know?" He told Kelly exactly what had hapjienetl and what he did- He of- fered to call his chief to have it veri- fied. "You were down at Tony Mural- lo'a the niflit of the minder, the night Doyle heat you up. What were you (loin).',' there?'' "I went there to get something to cat. All the boy.s go there." "How much money did you put on the Dlucs to win?" "Ten bucks," 'Peri^ answered without hesitation. "Oh, you did. Why?" "I had a hunch." "Why should you have a ten-dol- lar hunch on the Hlues when they haven't sown any signs of life un- til this year and a man had to die for them to win at that?" "Pop has a good team this year. I've said so from the start." "That's right," Pop agreed. "The Star is the only jiaper that has shown any faith in the team this year." "There's something behind these deaths," Kelly said quietly. "I've even he.Trd of newspapers being mix- ed up in (|uecr things. Something is going on none of us understand or know about and I want to get at the bottom of it. These deaths are not accidents.

[ The nn'ii I'loiii I lie lapeis trooped in and their looks direiled toward Terry were far from cordial. ' "You boys • probably want some- thing for your papers," Kelly be- ^ gan. "Dirkin is dead and we think ' he was jjoLsoned, but we don't know how or by what drug. There is no one under sus|iicion at the present time, but we are working on some leads.

I "He's had one scoop on the mur- der today anyhow," licyiiold.s, the Urooklyn reporter, .said sullenly; "that ought to bo eiuugh." "Have you put one over on me?" Kelly swung round to Teny "No. He's sore because I used my head," Terry replied. "Look at this." Ueynolds pulled a copy of the Star out of his pocket and handed il to Kelly. "When did this come out?' Kelly asked. "It was up here about an hour after it happened," Terry said with pride. "How did you know so much about it?" Kelly demanded. "It wa.s sort of obvious, wasn't it?" Terry replied.

To prove Ihe theory that Tristan da t'uiiha is part of an enormous continent, which once connected South .America, .Africa and Aus- tralia, a N'orweigian scientific ex- pedition will visit "the world's loneliest island" An Interesting controversy has arisen over the appointment of Dr. Roawell G. llam, of Yalu University, ua president of Mount l.'olyoke Col- lege, Boston, 111 sufTossion to Dr. Mary Emma Woollcy. Mount Holyoko is one of the leading v.omrn'a colleges in tho United States, and it has be.^n almost a tradition that a woman should preside over it. Dr. Woolley is retiring after a long sorvlcc, and a committee of nine of the trustets has chosen Dr. Ham as her Buccr>ssor. This has aroused a storm of criticism, the chief ground of objection being that the appointment sets an ex.-iniple that may c:itpnd lo other colleges. Approval of the selection has been Riven by the .Alumnae, is Iho claim of the cominillec, but that is scarcely justified. There are 7,000 members of the Alumnae Association, and when they wore circularized before the choice was mad^. loss than 30i) took the trouble to reply, and of these, only 180 said they ''preferred" a woman president. There appears to have been a good deal of indifference at the time. Ihe probability heing that the mombers assumed tradition would be followed and a woman named, be- cause the trustees have since been flooded wtih letters of protest. A com- inlttco has teen formed which has the support of Dr. Woolley, who tines not retire until .lune. and the protest is supported by Miss Dorothy Kenyoii, chairman of tho American Association of University Women in Washington. It is felt, however, it is now ton late to do aiiytliing, and although it is charged that the s;'!ection i-oniinittee was "packed," and railroaded the male appointment through, their de- fence is that they did offer the posi- tion to three women who declined, and that Dr. Ham was a fourth choice. Naturally, anything that takes away any of the hard-won gains of educat- ed womanhood is sure to meet resist- ance, especially as education of wo- men for professional cai;int,s is ever aiming at wider fields. There is al- most no profession not now open to women, even some of Iho churches breaking down their walls of prejiul ice. Olio iniidit think that a woman would be the ideal principal for a wo- j men's college, as liavin,;; a better uii | derslandin,' of feminine mentality and onllook. Il may he eoiitonded | that the duties of a principal are | largely eNeiulive, eorr( spondiug to that of maiiaKor of a business, but per contra, there is no lack of competent I well trained liusliies women, and there ari' many men in responsible adminis- trative posilions who would say that, their lady sei-retaries ciiild run the] business a well as themselves. He sides, so far as a college is concern- ed, the real business is handled by trustees or go\ornors who are I'sually chiefly men. Many stuileiils would no dotiht feel that a male principal would have a firmer ' j;iil>" of college affairs. 11 might also he ludd that certain sub- jects be taken by men under a woman principal, hiil a illtlitully there would be thai some" of these leacliers at any rale would not bo aiiienable to the authority of a woman. II is also a fact thai many women prefer to work under a man executive. They will allege llial there Is some- limes a species of "calllness" on the part of a woman "boss," and that men are often il>j)re' coBsideiale. arising out of a nalnrikl fe.eling of chivalry. Tliero are many colleges which have always been presided over by men, and inoiiibers of their alumnae revere the memories of those men who not only do tho job well hut have been "father" to llietn during llioir mllege years. .Alllioigh the .Aluniiiae ot Mount Holyoke will regret the change, there probably need bo no fear that the ef- liciency of the Institution will suffer or that the young ladles will bear Dr. llam any resentment. Just as women â€"or most of themâ€" like to feol that "there Is a man about Ihe house," so win tho girls at Mount Holyoke have a feeling of comfort that there Is a man somewhere on tho premises, ev( n if thi\v don't see much ot him.
