"Charlotte—my little Up-to-Date Jokes Charlotte.

THE END. Unexpected Result. Here is an emigration story told at a meeting recently. In a village was a youth who had got himself into such a variety of scrapes that his people thought it would be better to dispatch him to Canada, so as to get him away from old and doubtful associations. He agreed to go, provided those interested in his departure secured him some testimonials. Half a dozen were got for him. They sang his praises in unrestrained terms, spoke of his geniality, of his good address and exceptional capability, and all the other virtues that few men have, but many get the credit for. When the young man read the testimonials he turned to his father and exclaimed: "Well, I’m hanged! I had no idea people thought so much of*me. And now I know how much they like me I'm blowed if I’ll go away at all." By A. H. C. MITCHELL. Copyright, 1913, by International News Service. TO-DAY’S INSTALLMENT. "Looks like the real thing" acknowledged the veteran backstop. From that time Qn Long Tom didn't give Kelly an easy fly to catch. He purposely batted the ball so that if the recruit got to it at #11 it would 1 be at least a hard catch. The resuli was one of the most wonderful exhi bitions of ground covering by an out fielder ever seen on a ball field. Final- i ly Smith called a halt by declaring ! morning parctlce at an end. The players went at once to the j clqbhoure to take off their uniforms, stand under a shower bath and dress ; themselves for the street. The olub- j house became at once a very lively ! place. Each player was assigned a locker for uniforms, clothes and per sonal belongings. In front of these lockers were short benches, placed . there for the use of rhe players while dressing or undressing. It so happened»that Long Tom Mor- rhwey and Gordon Kelly had adjoin ing lockers and therefore sat side by side as they started to undress. The I other players were busy with their own affairs and did not notice the other two until suddenly they heard Kelly cry: "You can’t call me that, Morris- I sey.” All hands turned in the direction of the voice just in time to see Lopg Tom draw back and flap Kelly in standing up. The tw’o men were now staning up. Their shoes were off and they were stripped to the waist. The next instant th«*e was a furious mix- up. Benches were overturned as the tall, gaunt veteran swayed in tfie em brace of the tall, lithe youngster. It was all over in half a minute. At the end of that time Morrisey lay. an inert mass, in a corner of the club house, w here he had fallen with a loud crash. Ball players do not interfere with clubhouse fights. Even a man ager will not interfere. If there are grudges to be settled, it Is best to have them settled and be done with them. That is the philosophy of the club house. Players see to it that there is fair play. That is all. “Call It Square.’’ No one knew' what passed between the two men that led up to the en counter. After the brief battle, Kelly replaced his overturned bench as though nothing had happened, and j quickly removing the rest of his cloth ing stepped under the shower in .an adjoining room. The other play went to the assistance of Long Tom who showed signs of life about this* time. They raided the veteran to his feet. Morrissey blinked for awhiie and them a grin bespread his features. His left cheek was cut and bleeding. "The kid is all right,” he exclaimed heartily. "My nerve was better than my judgment, that’s all.” He, too quickly pulled off his clothes and stepping out of the room, turned on the shower next the one where Kelly was standing.

Call it square?” Gordon Kelly grasped the out stretched hand. "Certainly 1 will,” he said, with a rare smile. Kelly dressed himself rapidly and was the first to leave the clubhouse. The others followed singly and in pairs. Long Tom Morrissey and Bill - Smith were the last to go. "Did that guy tell you he never played a game of ball?” demanded the veteran backstop of his manager, as he slipped the key of his locker In his pocket. "That’s what he said” replied Smith. "And never played a game of ball?” "Thai’s what he said.” "Billy, he’s kiddin’ you Why, he even tights like a ball player,” de clared Long Tom. with a grin.- He started to leave the clubhouse when his manager called him back. "Want lo change your locker?” asked Smith. "Me? What for?” demanded Mor rissey in surprise. "You’re right next to the kid and 1 thought on account of—” "That’?' where I want to be; right next to the kid.” Long Tom broke in. "He’s my pal, Billy.” CHAPTER XII. A S Gordon Kelly hurried out*of tlje clubhouse he asked himself this question: “Is the game worth the candle?” and on his way down town he had a chance to study the question and answer It to his own satisfaction. Within the past few' hours he had. first, been more or less* ridiculed in the newspapers and. second, he had engaged in a clubhouse fight with another ball player. That, he fig ured, v as a pretty strenuous way for a novice like himself to begin a baseball career. Would every day have its bad features* as this day had* 7 Would it not be best for him to quit the game right now? How about going to Manager Smith and thanking him lor his kindness*, but telling him at the same time he had decided to call it all off. Greeted by Mildred. Ruminating further on the subject he came to the conclusion that the newspapers were right. The reporters were perfectly 'justified in refusing to laud him to the skies before he had demonstrated his ability. There was nothing really objectionable in what they had said about him. He confessed to himself that what they had published was largely true and they had written their articles In a humorous vein which was well w ithin their rights under the circumstances. No, he had no fault to find with the newspapers. But how about that clubhouse fight? Well, that was a thing of the past. Long Tom had apologized, he had ac cepted the apology and he believed they would be friends from now on. Then why quit? Wouldn’t that make him more ridiculous than ever? Be sides he'didn’t like the sound of the word. No, he wouldn’t quit. He would stick it out—do the bes’t he could and tru9t to luck and Providence. Glancing out of the car window at this stage of his meditations, Kelly beheld Miss Deery seated at the wheel of an automobile of vs'hich she was the sole occupant. There was a tem porary blockade and Kelly seized the opportunity to jump off the street car and hurry around to where Miss Deery’s machine was* packed In with several others, waiting for the jam to clear itself. He raised his hat. “How do you do?” smiled Mildred pleasantly.

"Us that where you are headed for?” inquired Gordon, stepping fntu the car and seating himself beside the young woman. "I don’t seem to be headed for any where in this blockade. Ah, here we are,” and the car moved slowly for ward. "Well, what is* your lordship’s pleasure?” "‘You are very kind, but before giving an answer I have a counter proposition to make.” The nature of "which is.” "Judge Barbee kindly sent me a card to his club and he wrote me there was a ladies’ dining room there. The card is only good for two weeks and I would like to make use of it. Won’t you take lunch with me there?’* "That would be simply fine. But we’ll have to go home anyway, be cause I have to prink up a little bit,” said Mildred, with an arch look. “I think you are very charming as you are,” remarked Gordon. Mildrel laughed gaily. "Mr. Kelly, you told me you lived all your life in the mountains and have only been in Atlanta a week. You are certainly learning fast. Who’s your teacher?” "You are the only girl I know in Atlanta, Miss Deery.” "As you know how to say nice things I’ll take that as a compli ment.” They were soon at the Deery res idence, and leaving him in the big. comfortable living room to amuse himself Mildred ran upstairs. Contra ry to the assertions of humorists, she was back again inside of ten min utes, with a complete change of cos tume. and if she was charming be fore, she was bewitching now'. Gor don offered to drive the car, and with the smiling comment that he seemed to have many accomplish ments for a mountaineer, Mildred ar ranged herself belside him. Ten minutes later they were at the club and seated at' a table. When thd waiter had taken their order, Gordon asked, seriously: "Have you ever seen a game of baseball. Miss Deery.?” “Of course I have. I’ve seen Geor gia and Tech play half a dozen times. And I saw Harvard and Yale play on the Polo Grounds, New York, too.” “Which side won?” “I’ve forgotten. I w'ent with a par ty of friends, some of whom wanted Yale to win and the others wanted Harvard to win. I got all mixed up in the excitement.” "Did you ever see a professional game of baseball here in Atlanta, at Ponce DeLeon Park? “No, I never did. Why this cross- examination, Mr. Kelly?” “I’m trying to find out your likes and dislikes, in order to avoid the dislikes.” “That’s very nice of you. I rather like baseball: Fty say that.” The talk went on. Gordon Kelly was becoming very much interested in Mildred Deery; to such an extent that he was anxious to learn what her opinions were in regard to pro fessional ball players. Yet he was afraid to ask the direct question. He beat around the bush for a while and then changed the subject, with out getting the information he desir ed and without suspecting why he asked the questions. To Be Continued To-morrow.
