brow, and knew that Millicent and I

OUR NATTONAL GAME IN ENGLAND.

OUR NATIONAL GAME IN ENGLAND.
Considerable interest "in our ma
tional game" has been excied in
England by the recent visit of the Bos-
ton and Athletic clubs. The game
comes in competition with the British
game of cricket, and it was thought by
many hat the prejudice in favor of the
latter sport would prevent the former
from being patronized. Such, howev-
er, has not proved to be the case. An
English paper speaks as follows of our
favorite American game of ball:
OF the game itself, as seen during the
week in London, little can be said, ex-
cept in praise. 1t was generally fan
| cied that the cricketers would be rather
inclined to deprecate and ignore, but
the cricket world has been the first not
only to welcome, but to applaud. To
cricketers, indeed, base ball presents
many lessons that might judiciously be
accepted. In one respect alone the
Americans have shown the Englishmen
what a be done in accuracy of throw
ing. Here you rarely find a cricketer
who can be relied upon for accuracy in
returning the ball to the wicket-keeper.
1t is returned somehow, and that
seems quite enough. Sometimes at the
head, and more often at the feet, it
comes in at a great pace probably, but
still in a manner calculated to disturb
the whole system of a wicket-keeper by
the constant lunges, and often vain at.
tempts to reach the ball in an impossi-
BILE position. With the base ball player
matters are different. There is no I'M
wise haste in the effort to throw, but a
moment to steady before the ball is sent
in. Then there is no need for the
baseman to move either to the right or
to the left, as the ball comes as straight
as an arrow, and the base runner is as
certain of his doom as if it were q thing
of curse. Perhaps to Englishmen, the
only drawback at present is, that the
different details of the game are so
poorly understood. The score is kept,
it is true, and the telegraph-board
shows three lines of figures that repre-
sent nothing except to the initiated. 1t
has been amusing throughout the week,
indeed, to hear the stories with regard
to the exact Interpretation of these
signals on the board. With a better
comprehension of the rules, base ball
would have become more popular, and
met with a better reception. As it is
the Americans can have no ground for
dissatisfaction Mt the enthusiasm that
their visit has created in metropolitan
circles.

4 MICROSCOPIC CIRCNS

The latest excitement in Berlin is the
exhibition of drilled heas. The exhibi-
ton takes place on a large sheet of
white paper fastened upon an ordinary
table, to which all the spectators an
proach in turn, so as to be able to w.t.
ness in all details the extraordinary
maneuvers of these little but marvellous.
ly powerful and gifted r~ascals. Here
you see one of the muscular fleas roll
ing a small barrel along with its feet.
as the mendo in a circus; there you see a
slim, voluptuously built madam of the
species walking along in crinoline and
carrying her parasol with all the fec
tation of a city miss !; at another place
a well trained fellow performs on the
flying trapeze, without any danger of
his neck, however, since the biggest
fall would not break that while
below the trapeze, on the paper, a host
of little ones are turning somerssults at
a fearful rate. The largest specimens
of the collection have been trained to
draw wagons, drays carriages, etc. To
fix the harness properly on them the
tlea-tamer places his pupils on a piece
of paper covered with mucilage, where
they have to stick. He then, by the aid
of a watchmaker's loop, arranges a
strong gold thread around their bodies
and attaches it to the wagon or car
riage. The ladies of Berlin attend the
exhibition in large numbers, and seem
to take a extraordinary delight in the
performance of the little creatures, who
are fed regularly every morning from
the arm of the great flea-tamer. -HeartH

THE CALIFORNIA WHEAT CROP.

Ten years ago California produced
only wheat enough for her own con
sumption, if, indeed, enough was raised
in the State for that purpose. The i'm
mense proportions which that crop has
reached in a single decade is Il of the
most astonishing events Of the century.
The Chronicle well remarks that eff
this immense mass Of wheat had come
down upon us in a shower from heaven,
it could not have been more unlocked
for than it was a few years ago. The
surprises in California in an agricultural
way have been greater than those of the
mineral, astonishing and bewildering as
they have been"
The amount of the surplus is stated
in figures ut 90, 700, 900 bushels, or
about 600, 600 tons. To form a definite
idea of what these figures mean is a very
different matter. The New York Herald,
in order to assist the understanding,
says llluJ, IL ItNutu III dltS, rtSh Soh-
tanning a ton. to be hauled to New York,
the first would be at its destination
when the last was leaving San Fran
cisco. This, at first thought, seems ex-
travagant but, in order to travel COM
fortably, not much more than 200 could
be ranged upon a mile, and hence the
statement is not very wide of the mark.
The Bulletin suggests that, if loaded
into vessels of 1000 tons burden, and
the 600 ships were to sail in sight of
each other, say twenty miles apart. the
line would extend II, 900 miles, or half
way round the globe. The last Il
might Just be leaving the Golden Gate
when the first one was entering the har-
Dor of Liverpool. Such illustrations,
though not very original, may serve to
show how great an element in the econ
omy of the civilized world the wheat
crop of California has become.

KISSES.
"Are kisses spirits, mother :"

"Are kisses spirits, mother !"
Little Waiter asks,
Raising great dark earnest eyes
To others, blue as summers skies,
That brighten for her eager boy.
Through her life of hope and joy,
And tender woman tasks.
Fearless little questioner,
What knows he of kissese
Save caresses soft and sweet,
Each fresh hour of life to greet;
Blessing kiss of sire and mother,
Clasp Of sister, hug of brother;
Thanks TOR baby blisses.
Happy cherished darling,
He nor knows nor cares;
of passionate lips that press in vain
On those that cannot glow again,
of wild despsirrng kisses pressed
On damp sodS where our idols rest;
Mid sad unanswered prayers.
Can true-lea-ted childhood
Guess srch things can be,
As kiss tween secret foe and foe,
IS hands that clasp DER CUFFS below,
As kisses with no loving heaven,
Colby taken, idly given,
In custom courtesy:
Can frank-hearted childhood
Dream that kindred lips,
Lips that have met 3 thousand times,
Warra andtrue a ! oet's rhymes,
May for each other learn to frame
Scorn or hatred, meek or blame,
Loves G2wacned eclipse?
Dim not chiiIhood's golden faith
With such lore is this is;
Let hum trust the glsdncss round,
Trust the love as birthright found;
Soon, too soon, the world will teach
Stings may LUX in honeyed speech,
Treason h!ic in kisses.
