certain amendments to the Consti-

them were adopted. One of these

Another limits the Legislative term
to 100 days and fixes the compen-

The fly is an animal. 1t chose its mate and rode
into the ark an the back Of Noah's best mule.
Noah didn't have much butter and preserves for
the flies to walk through and get stuck in. This
made them uneasy. When fly is uneasy, moth
ing but small boy and Q pin can keep 1t still.
The way Noah used his two flies was caution.
When one would light on his ear he would ask
his only jackass to kick IL Of. This is what made
the hy SO supple. Tho ass was known to have
kicked OF nineteen sets Of hind shoes before he
hit the hy, and then 1t was on the wing, and q
spent kick at that. Before the ark had been to

the cylinder, and, discovering the sugar inside
they would jump of and go for 1t. Noah sat

contest yesterday afternoon, 1t being the first visit

ana were the Baltimore and Nationals, the latter
beinS composed OF amateur players residents or
this CITY, Up te the end of the seventh inning the
game was very close, the score standing TO 2 but
severed mufs by Holly, and errors in general by
the Nationals, enabled the Baltimores to forge
considerably ahead, leaving gap which 1t was

feature OF the game was the 1ne throwing OF Spy-
DER, late Of the Creighton Of thiscty; several fine

stopping Of Gerhardt, likewise an old Creighton
player. i
For the Nationals Lusk did the Hons share Of
the work, although In the fret two innings he
made several costly errors. Lawrie played well

echoed and re-echoed through the stiffness Of the
