THAT BOY.

The boy stood on the burning deck.
Or history is wrong;
often wondered why he stood.
Instead of sitting down.
The boy stood on the railway track
And heard the cngints squcals;
And then the engineer got down
And scraped him from the wheels.
The boy stood on the kitchen floor
And held his fathers gun;
And pieces of his mortal frame
Are sticking to the sun.
The boy stood by his fathers desk
And wrote y little poem;
He took it to an editor
One-half Of him got home.

THE LEAGUE GAME.
A Hot Day, Heavy Batting, and
A Close Game.

The first game of baseball be-
tween our two city league clubs
was played in College Park last
Friday afternoon. The weather
was extremely sultry, not even a
zephyr stirring.
The Roughs, a club composed of a
portion of the legal fraternity, etc.,
was individually and collectively
present. The Fines, the boys club,
had three men missing, which was
probably misfortune. Substi-
tutes were called in and the game
was commenced at $50. From the
beginning marked rivalry was
noticeable between the two clubs,
and the determination to beat or
be beaten seemed to characterize
each player.
5 The Fines did some fine playing
during the first three innings, but
afterward seemed to grow luke.

was doing his best to avoid snch a
