ers, j. Z. Blum for Fertiers, 5. III. Meiancon

The Eortiers had Messrs. O'Neil, Wart-
man and Leon of New Orleans as pitcher,
catcher and second baseman, and the Lees
played their three, new men, McCue, Cor
ridan and Locke At right, left and second
base respectively. The Lees were handi-
capped by the pon-appearance of their city
catcher. and by the injury to Bentley slhand
in the sixth inning, which left them utterly
without substitute, though they played
ont the remaining three innings Of the
game to satisfy the spectators. The work
of Montero at first base aud the right field

while Corridan at second covered the posi-
ton in brilliant style. Fortier and Locke
got in the heaviest work at the bat for their
respective Sides
The same clubs will play again Sun
day afternoon, the 9th inst, for 800 side.
It is agreed that the mines shall be the
same as those of last game, with the excep-
ton that the Lees are to have & Now Or

Getting the worst.

house and asked if she did not want
some berries, for he had been all day
gathering them.
"Yes," said the lady, 81 will take
them" So she took the basket and
stepped into the house, the boy remain
ing outside, whistling to some canary
birds hanging in their cage on the
porch.

should only lose my berries, and you
would make yourself thief. Don't
you think that would be getting the
worst of it?"
The boy was right. He who steals

to gain few pennies or few dollars,
loads himself down with sin which
is worse than all the gain. LET this
be borne in mind: The one who does
