O'Connell had his adversary on the
ropes most of the time during the
third aeeslon and the ex-soldler was
sntMly st the mercy of the Au

A GREAT FIUHT.
A word, however, for young Tay

for hts money, fighting every Inch of

In this game Coach Carson will be
able to experiment with all manner
of combinations and learn their possi
bilities. He now has two types of
backflelds—one light but extremely
fast, the other heavier and capable of
smashing attacks at the line. With
two complete backflelds such as this
Richmond should he able to vary the
attack and have a much better chance
of victory.
but put Taylor out without waiting
for the third round. The fight was
between two good men and two clean
fighters and O'Connell deserved to
win, with a lot of glory to the gal

Douglas Raynor is Yound shot
through tha heart in the early
evening on the floor of the sun
room of Flower Aeret, his Long
Island Horns. Standing over
the dead man, pistol in hand, is
Malcolm Finley, former sweet
heart of Raynor’s wife, Nancy.
Eva Turner, Raynor’s nursa,
stands by the light switch. In
'moment Nancy appears,
white-faead and terrified. Or
ville Kent, Nancy's brother,
comes in from the south side
of the room. And then Ezra
Goddard, friand of Finlay; Mies
Mattia, Raynor’s sister, and
Othars, enter upon the scene.
Dective Dobbins is official in
»u'V?,* tor- An * ut °P»y reveals
that Raynor alio was being sys
tematically poiaoned with
arsenic. Lionel Raynor, eon of
Douglas Raynor by first mar
riage, comet to claim his fath
ers estate. Now Dobbins, pos
ing as a reporter, interviews
Nurse Turner’s mother in New
York in hopes of learning more
about her daughter. Nurse Tur
ner arrested in New York, fin
ally confesses to attempting to
poison Douglas Raynor, before
the snooting, out of revenge.
Now Detective Dobbins is cjues*
tioning the four people who
stood at the four doors of the
sun parlor immediately after
the murder But the shooting re
mains a systery, and Penning
ton Wise, a celebrated detec
tive, is called to take charge of
the caee. With him is his girl
assistant, Zixi.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
Eva Turner looked dumfounded.
“You see,” Wise wept on, Miss
Turner noted the frightened face
of Mrs. Raynor, although she
swears that Mrs. Raynor was go
ing out of the door—fleeing—l be.
lleve she said. A person doesn't
flee backward. Now, Mr. Finley, for
your account of this moment. You
entered at the east door—after you
heard the shot?”
"Yes," enld Finley, shortly. He
was not gruff or annoyed, but he
felt ns if he were to be tripped up
unless very careful, even though
telling a straight story.
“You were inside the sun parlor
before the light flashed up?”
"Yes."
“You had involuntarily picked up
the revolver before the light ap
peared ?”
"Yes ”
"How could you seo the weapon?"
"It was dusk—not entirely dark,
and the metal shone clearly.”
"Yes, It would. You could see Mr.
Raynor—”
“As a huddled heap on the floor.
Seeing the pistol, I knew what must
have happened, and I picked it
up—”
"Yes, I know; and then the light
came and—here is the point, you
glanced at once toward Mrs. Ray
nor?”
"No—or, I don’t know.” Finley
spoke slowly. "I should say I looked
first at Mr. Raynor—naturally he
caught my attention."
“Of course—of course." Wise as
sented. "and then?”
"And then—or. I don't know! T
suppose my eyes glanced around—"
"Try to think—you eyes glanced
round and you saw Mrs. Ravnor—”
"Yes" 4
“Going out or coming In at the
west door?”
Finley, fidgeted. It was one thing
to tell a glib tale to Dobbins and
Rulte another to meet those clear
blue eyes with an Indefinite state
ment.
"I don’t know.” he said, at last,
desperately; "I should say she was
Just standing there—neither going
out nor coming in.”
"Certainly not ‘fleeing’ then,” and
Wise nodded. "You saw her face.
Mr. Finley?"
Again Finley paused
"Mr. Wise,” he said, "I cannot
say. I was so startled by the oc
casion, and also so blinded by the
sudden light, that I cannot sav
whether I could sec Mrs. Raynor's
face or not.”
•That will do, Mr. Finley.” Wise
looked at him contemplatively. 'Toil

be. You are uncertain of what to
say— rather than ns to what vou

TLLL you WiJAX 1 SAWi."
saw. You are trying to think what
will be best for Mrs. Raynor's In
terests."
“Ae you a clairvoyant, Mr. Wise?”
Finley asked.
"No, It is not necessary to be that
to read your attitude."
"My attitude is more sincere than
you think." Finley spoke angrily
now. “I have no reasons to speak
other than the truth. But It Is not
surprising that l cannot remember
clearly the details of the scene."
"That Is perfectly true. Yet, the
details you do remember are some
what contradictory. The lights
flashed on, you glanced first and
naturally at the shocking Bight of
Mr. Raynor's body on the floor.
With the light on you could see this
plainly—could even see that he was
evidently dead, or at least, serious
ly injured. Is that not so?”
"Yes."
“And you looked at the revolver
In your hand?”
“I dare say—l suppose so—yes, I
am sure I did."
"Then, your glance turned toward
the door where Mra. Raynor stood.”
"Yes.”
"Yet, after the notice you took of
Mr. Raynor, after the look you gave
the weapon you held in yur hand,
after these appraising glances—
you state that your eyes were so
blinded by the sudden light you
could not see Mrs. Raynor clearly."
Malcolm Finley looked chagrined,
and then, in manly fashion he ac
cepted the situation.
"I fear I spoke hastily, Mr. Wise.
Now, I can only say, that I agree
that after the attention I paid to
the sight of Mr. Raynor, and to the
revolver, which I saw quite clearly,
I could not have been dazzled by the
light. But when I said that—l
thought It was so. Now. I will cor
rect It by saying that I must have
been dazed rather than dazzled, and
dazed—stunned. almost, by the
shock of the evident tragedy, and
because of my bewildered senses I
did not see clearly—definitely, rath
er, the exact position or attitude of
Mrs. Raynor as she stood in the
doorway.”
"Yet it seems probable that you
should see the lady as well as that
you should see the other scenes you
■peak of. You noticed Miss Tur
ner?”
“Yes: she stood, her hand still on
the light switch, her face horrified,
and behind her came Miss Raynor,
equally agitated."
"Y'ou seem to have noticed these
two ladles much more definitely
than you observed Mrs. Raynor.
Why was that?” '
"I cannot tell you,” Malcolm Fin
ley said, with dignity.
"Will you tell me." Wise said,
turning to Nan, “whether you were
leaving or entering the room when
the lights appeared?"
“I don’t know —”
"Try to think—lt may means a
great deal."
"You were sitting on the terrace
when you heard the shot?”
“Yes.”
"You rose at once and walked to
ward the sun parlor?”
"Yes.”
"What did you see?”
"Nothing alarming—at first."
“But you say— ’’
Nancy looked at him, her eyes
wide with horor, yet full of uncer
tainty.
"You say—” the Inexorable blue
eyes looked steadily at her.
"I saw—” she spoke like on hyp
notized. then she seemed fairly to
w-rench her own gaze aw-ay from the
detective’s as he cried out, "I won’t
tell you what I saw!"
"Let her alone,” said a soft little
voice, and the gir!( Zlzl. glided to
Nan’s side, sank In a low seat be
side her. and took her hand.
"As to Incidental matters," the
detective said, speaking on as if
without interruption, "whose was
the revolver?"
"It belonged to my brother," Miss
Mattie said, eagerly, glad to take a
part In this enthralling conversa
tion.
Wise looked at her with interest
"Where did Ue keep it?”
"Right in the table drawer in the
sun parlor."
"Who knew the revolver was in
that drawer?”
"Everybody tn the house,” Miss
Raynor replied.
"Fingerprints?”
“None were found on it except
mine,” Malcoltn Finley volunteered.
‘Tve been told you wiped it with
your handkerchief, Mr. Finley, even
while you Were dazzled by the sud
den light and dazed by the shock of
the tragedy.”
“Yes, I did It unthinkingly—”
“You did not do it unthinkingly,”
the detective said. "You did it pur
posely—to remove fingerprints—
either your own or another's! Will
you say which?"
“If I say which, I shall certainly
say my own—for I have no reason
to suspect any one else.”
“Did you shoot Mr. Raynor?"
“I Am not obliged to answer that
question, as you well know, Mr.
Wise.”
"And you prefer not to do so?”
"Now, as to the mark of the ovgf
shoe on the floor.” The detective
seemed to jump from one subject
to another easily. “Who saw it?"
"I did," Miss Raynor vouchsafed.
"The other detective showed It to
me. He said it was a clew."
"It is,” Wise said gravely. "Was
It a whole print of the sole?”
"Oh, no; just a partial print—of
one side of the rubber.”
"Which side?”
“Let me see, now.” Miss Mattie
was elated and a little flustered.
"Why, it was the right side of the
right foot—yes, that was it. I look
ed at it most carefully. It svas posi
tively the print of a new overshoe:
it was on the floor between the two
rugs, and—why, I could draw you a
picture of It! It was the clear, full
print of the right side of the right
foot.”
“Are the rights and lefts of over
shoes so clearly defined?" asked
Goddard.

In the annual game between
Georgia and Virginia, Georgia was

Florida put up a hard -right
