FAIR KEYSTONE VS.. MAPLE LEAF.
/. AT the Schuetzen Park, on Saturday
AFTERNOON, match game of base ball
was played between the keystone
club, OF Philadelphia, and the Maple
Le.:f club, Of this city.
Although the score was one-sided.
the game was interesting. The vsi..
tors played handsomely in the field,
making but three errors, and did fairly
at the bat. The home club played un.
der the disadvantage of being short of
three of their best players, and this
being only their second gan this sea
son, they made numerous fielding -er-
-o.'. They will probably imp. owe in
future games.
The Keystones appear TO be invinci.
bic in this city. They recently defea-
ted the Quicksteps by score of 21 to
10, and now they have laid out our
other home club to the tune of 10 to Q.
However, if they como down again,
either of our home clubs will dc their

M4-The legend of st. Swithin has attracted
much attention this year in consequence of the
remarkably rainy weather since the 18th Of
July. The common adage Of our English an
cestors regarding st. Swithin is to the effect
that as it rains or is fair on st. Swithin's day,
the 18th of July, there will be a continuous
track of wet or dry weather for the forty days
ensuing. On TO- morrow, Oath inst, the forty
days, which this year began with rain, will
end. No one will deny that continuous track
of rainy weather has characterized the forty
days, now nearly at an end. The records show
that in many previous years similar lengthy
rainy seasons have followed wet St. Swithin's
day. mS~
St. Swthin was bishop of Winchester, and
died about S62, over a thousand years ago,
which is long enough to test any Legend
Swithin was born near Winchester, and was a
monk of the old abbey of Winchester, and though
he died a bishop was never regularly canon
lied. He is therefore what has been termed a
"home-made saint" 1t would seem that love
of being out in the wet was one of his peculi-
arities, for he directed that when he should die
his body should be buried under the caves
droppings of the church, in which uncomfort-
able state it remained fer nearly hundred
years, when the clergy in body began the re-
mOval amidst great pomp to the Cathedral of
Winchester. The ceremony, however, was in
terrupted at the beginning by heavy burst of
rain, which continued forty days. The monks,
who were frightened by the rain, desisted and
built a chapel over the remains on the spot
where they lay buried. Out of this incident
grew the legend which has held a place in the
popular mind along with other traditions and
supersttions for so many centuries.-Sun, 23d
instant.
