As the sched- ule is played out the stars of the teams opposing the Blues ai-e singled out for spectacular denth on the play- ing field by shooting or mysterious poisoning, or are put out of commis- sion by serious injury. Whitper, Phil- adelphia pitcher, is shot through the heart; four Boston players are sent to the hospital by the wrecking of their taxi; Dirkin, Chicago's star bat- ter, is poisoned, and Pietro, Chicago bat boy disappears: Scotter, St. Louis pitching ace, is poisoned; Rawlins, Chicago manager. Is hangod In the hotel room adjoining his own. When Penny, Detroit's star pitcher, refuses to play against the Blues, baseball's Cisr calls a meeting of club owners. Terry Burke has had beats on most of these sensational murders for the Star and Detective Kelly at first sus- pects both him and Larry Doyle, the Blues' rookie shortstop. Clark sends Larry to Newark but he is soon sold to Boston and then to Washington. At Clark's suggestion, the owners ask Terry to help them uncover the mur- der gang and he agrees. Larry Is In love with Frances Clark, Pop's pretty daughter, and Terry with Alice An- drews. Big Boy Planer, Cleveland's all around star, is poisoned and In- capacitated, but lives. Terry outlines his plans to Kelly, who has become his friend, before the crucial series betv/een the Blues and Washington. Terry fears Larry is marked for death.

T'le poiiteman called and then K!X\o the receiver to Terry. "I've Kol 1(1 talk lo Kelly of New York," Terry said. "This is Burke." He had to wuit until a call was put IhroUKh to the Held. "Kelly," he .said excitedly, "this i.-i Buike. Yeah, I'm all ripht. Has nnytliint; happened? What'.s the score? Tied? Two-two in the sixth? Listen, Kelly, the Feds have (;ol to win IIiIh name or they must at least pel the lead. Why? Doylo will ho safe if the Blues win. I know that, hut we will never catch them unless we do It right there on the field redhanded. You can't prove a thing, and you know it. We've got to catch him in the act. The Wash- ington pigeon is coming back. When it MKhts on Dnvle'n shoulder he is to die. Tell Doyle. Tell Pop Clark. Ask him to lot his team loaf, if ne- cessary. Fixing be damned.

They entered the field throujjh one gf the end gates and worked their way over to the Blues' rooms. Terry swiinn the door open and crashed in, followed by Pietro and the policeman. There was a Rasp of surprise. Doyle and Fraticcs were standing sdc by side, Pop Clark, puz- zled and worried, looked at them. KeHy held the center of the floor, (.'ainer, the Wnshinjiton manaKcr, was standing just behln(\ Doyle. "You fell them, Riirke," Kelly .said. "They won't listen lo me."

"We'll liave to stop Ihi.s wholesale butchery somehow. Burke thin':s he knows how to do it, and if I can be the decoy it is okay by me." Frances tugged at his arm. "Don't be heroic," she bejrgod. "I'm not heroic," Larry said ten- derly. "It's something bigger than we are, PVances. It's the game." Pop's eyes turned to Frances. The very thing he had feared for her was hapjjening. She was playing second fiddle to a baseball man's first and only love, the gaine. He put his arm about her tenderly. â- 'But, Larry," she said hopelessly. "Frances," Larry pleaded, "don't say it like that! Please. I thought you would stand with me always." "I'm with you," she said after a moment; "only I don't want to lose you. Larry, why must it be you?" "Because he's a real baseball man," Pop said and there was a ring of pride in his voice, and understandng. "Well, then, that's settled," Teny said. ''What is the score?'' "Throe-throe," Cainer answered. "And the Blues are playing the best bull they have played all season." "But the Feds have got to win," Terry said. He turned to Kelly. "Did you tell Pop of his part in the scheme?" (To be Continued.) Tin Can Fixes Skunk P. M. Beaupre, of Belleville, was awakened during the night by strange noises .

However, this is just about the best time for mother to throw a party ut home for the young gang so that when irate neighbours wonder who broke their front gate and crea- ted other havie, you can he right- eously indignant, knowing that your Johnny and George and Bobby were at home on the night in question. The children do enjoy this even- ing of make-believe and appreciate it when their parents can enter into the spirit of Hallowe'en. Let them have a party, dressed in weird cost- umes dug out of attic trunks, give them plenty of games such as duck- ing for apples in a tub of water and pinnng the tal on the donkey. They can pop corn at the open grate, pull ' candy or make taffy apples too. But the grandest part of the evening to them will be the refreshments so give them goodies that apeal particularly to children. The Chocolate Fudge Cake, for which we are giving the recipe below, is an old favorite, especially for parties. On Hallowe'en it comes dressed for the occasion in a new or- ange colored fronting. Chocolate Fudge Cake 2 cups sifted cake flour 2 teaspoons baking powder ',i teaspoon .salt M cup butter or other shortening 1 cup sugar 2 squares unsweetened chocolate, melted. 1 egg, well beaten 1 teaspoon vanilla â- !4 cup milk Sift flour once, measure, add bak- in;; powder and salt, and sift to- gether three times. Cream butter thoroughly, add sugar gradually, and cream together until light ancl fluffy. Add chocolate and blend; then add egg and vanilla. Add flour alternately with milk, a small amount at a time. Beat after each addition until smooth. Bake in greased pan, 8x8x2 inches, in moderate oven .'525 degrees F. 1 hour. Cover with Orange Butter Frosting.

Strain. Combine lemon juice, egg yolk, salt, butter, and con- fectioners' sugar. Add orange juice until of right consistency to spread. Beat until smooth and spread on cake. Makes enough frosting to cover tops and sides of two I'-inch layers. For small cakes, Chocolate Mar- guerites will prove very popular.

Negroes Choose Queerest Names "Sardine," "Pantaloon," ".Malar- ia" Are Often Mel With in British Outposts If a prize were offered for tho race with the strangest names, negroes would win hands down. All over the world there are black men with names which we consider fantastic. In Papua, for example, where the authorities now give a bonus to mothers of large familic:i, many youngsters have been named Bonus. Malaria Is the Christian name of thousands of young American negres- ses, who do not seem to mind haviitg the same name as a dangerous fever. Name Themselves A sugar plantation in British Gui- ana had. among its negro workers. Whiskey Emmanuel Tomklns, John Pantaloon. Queen Elizabeth, I'''rank Locust and Prince Albert. Tho parents of Prince Albert took the nane from that of the man who appeared on the lahels of red tins of a popular Ameri- can tobacco. Tho late Sir Thomas LIpton had among his servants two Sinsalese youths named Erin and Shamrock, and the Mashona Boys of Rhode ;ia are fond of naming themselves after Bri- tish coins or things found in the kit- chen of the white man. Sixpence is the favourite, closely followed by Tickey (South African slang for a threepec- uy blt>. Wistful Chap "Nasty" Plate. Dish, Knife, Fork, Spoon. Cof- fee, Milk and Sardine are often en- countered. A British official's wife has related that the tallest youth she had ever seen came to ask for a job one day, solemnly announcing hii'iself as Sardine. She engaged him, and re- named him Salmon. The same woman once found a wistful little chap at the back door, seeking employment. His name was Nasty. Winter Prelude The smoky wind, raw throacd, blov.s A harsher note, with sterner spite; The acorn stains the s(iuirre''s i:osc, The bee planes home in solo (light. So silent Is the shadowed wood, A quail call echoes in the sky; I know a startling interlude When a wing opens and brushes by. Yet in this solitary place I hear deep voices sound a tune That in tho long and far-off days I never heard in June. â€" Alex R. Schmidt, in The Gypsy. Icdine Proves Best Germ Destroyer Iodine, the old-fashioned germi- cide, has been shown to be the moct efHcicnt germ destroyer when tested '. with a number of the newer germi- cides. The tests were made by Dr. A. J. Salle, assistant professor of bacteriology at the University of California. The germicides wer* tested on two kinds of germs, on* a pus producer and the other the organism that causes typhus. It alao was tested on embryonic tissues. Tha latter tests were made in order to ascertain to what extent the germi- cides injured the healthy tissue while they were engaged in the task of killing the germs. Iodine led the list in germ-killing tests and injured heal- thy tissues least. Of the newer or- ganic germicides hexylresorcinal was found to be valuable for general use. The tests were made primarily to de- termine which germicide was best for use in surgical operations. There are more than 1,100 different kinds of trees growing in the United States.
