NATIONAL HYMN AND TUNE Book, FOR
CONGREGATIONS, SCHOOLS, AND THE
HoME.-Price, 40 cents.-The firm of
Oliver Ditson & Co., Boston, has isued
small book with the above title. 1t
seems to be just such book as was
needed. 1t differs in two or three
respects from the ordinaryrun of HYMN
and tune books, now in use.
1t has special adoption to schools,
academies, &c., where it will be an
appropriate and handy collection. from
which to sing sacred music at opening
and closing exercises 1t Is entirely
unsectarian, is such work should be.
1t embraces vastly greater variety of
hymns and tunes than that found on
the last pages School Song books. Be-
ing standard work, ii need not be
changed, but remaiu for years In q
school. The music Is that with which
every young person should become
familiar, since it includes the tunes,
old and new, that will be used during
the next lifetime in public assemblies.
The arrangement into four simple
parts has an educational value. and
either Que, two, three or four parts
may be practiced and sung. There
are more than 200 tunes, with "a ac--
companying hymns. As a congrega-
tional singing book the collection will
find favor in places where general,
and not doctrinal hymn and tune
book is needed.

the home club win, but all expected to
see them play q good game, and make
tne professionals work hard for their
victory. Nor were they disappointed,
The game started promptly at 3'31 ~
clock, with the Chicagoes at the bat
when Higham open with a two base hit
to right field. The ball rolled out on the
track under the feet Of q horse which
was standing there, and when STOCK
reached for it, the horse kicked him n
the face, cutting his lip and Knocking
him on his back. Fortunately the kiek
was not Q hsavy one, and although Stock
felt impelled to stop playing, he was moi
seriously injured. Kelley took his place
and the game was resumed. Devlin then
sent Q fly to centre, which Rogers muffed
and threw wildly to home, enabling Hir.
ham to get in run. Hines and Mile,
followed with high flies to second whicb
Clinch took in splendid style, and Pc.
ters sent hard hit to short which Std.
ham felded well to first, and retired lthe
side with one run. The Quicksteps then
came in and were retired, in one. two OF
three order. =
In the ninth inning they batted well
for more runs, and Rogers, Kelley and
Splain made good base hits, and covered
all the bases. None Of them got home
however, as Hindle retired the side with
q foul tip to the catcher. Total fou1
