The rules governing umpires forbid n
decision to be changed. whether right or
wrong. In some cases umpires are weak
In enforcing their decisions and are dis
posed TO chang. them if there is "kick-
ing" As soon as the players and specta-
tors see that an umpire a be IN tie to
weaken as to his decision. he gets himself
into hot water, an | he might as well give
up. Tor every time he max IS a decision
there will be n yell for him to
change it, Ohe of the myster es
about umpires is that they will
umpire a game one day and give general
s ,tistaction, and on thu next day they
will umpire a game between the same
clubs, and before almost the same crowd,
so badly that the crowd will be re ldy to
mob them. Lovers of base ball in one
city will 20 wild over an umpire, and in
the next city he will be glad to get away

SILVER fox is. perhaps, the rarest fur
bearing animal known. 1t is found in the
far west, and its kin is worth from 800
to 500 have often sold the skin of this
animal measuring two by three feet for
$500. Ladies call every fur of a lightish
tint silver fox and never fail to ask for It.
They don't buy much, however. when
they learn the price of the skin. A silver
fox has a most beautiful fur, which IS of
n blue-graylsh cast. The fur Is mainly
used for trimming. The fur OF the Rus

The Buffalo Echo takes a somewhat

must surely be in error as to the delegates
securing the passage of bill:
1t is very likely hat the people of

demonstrative in their Willingness To allow
Hon. Joseph NJ. Carey an unlimited time
in which to recover from the utter pros
tration which must have followed after his
third successful effort to secure recognition
in the house OF representatives during a
session lasting from December till August,
aud then securing the passage Of IA bill
relating to measures beneficial only TO that
country lying in the immediate vicinity OF
cheyenne. The assurance that that Crook
and johnson county land office bill is
among the first ON the calendar is not
making ANYBODY believe that Mr.. Carey
intends to push the bill to It's final passage

other chance.

THE KING OF CoVENERY Y.

There was King of Coventry,
Elected by her people;
So very great he grew to be,
He overtopped the steeple.
This seemed to him the proper thing
What else could be expected?
For he alone was chosen King,
And all the rest rejected.
The monarch grew SO very tall,
He couldn't see below him,
And scarcely caught glimpse Of all
The folks who used to know him.
To reach his ear, the men below
Built up lofty ladder;
But bigger yet he seemed to grow,
While they were growing madden.
The thought they might without fuss,
Reduce him vertically
BY saving off his legs, and thus
Get at him gradually. gs
To this an ancient sage said "No!
His case is past all mending;
Just let his Royal Tallness grow
And still keep on ascending.
"When food he lacks from day to day,
His lofty frame to nouriah,
He cannot help but fade away,
While we live on and flourish"
As higher still he rose and rose,
The people all said, "Go IT. !"
And when another King they chose,
That monarch didn't know It.
