The National Game.

'rhe writer looked up from his
desk On two small ''gamins" with
dirty faces who stood neryously
twitching their ragged caps before
him.
aYes, sir; what do you want ~
"Well, you see, the Irish Boys
and the Silver Stars had a game of
ball to-day, and we kinder thought
as we'd like to have it published"
"Is THAT really sog knew those
two ctack cluas wee going to play,

which club do you belopgY"
"We belong 80 The Silver Stars.
I'm ketcher, and he's short-stop.
Ard we waxed them other fellers-
didn't we, Bill?"
"You bet u responded Bill.
"Why didn't you say so before |?
The Irish Boys are good enough
club, but, by Jove, give me the Sill
yer Stars Why, I'm delighted to
meet both Of YOU" and the editor
rose up, shook both of them warmly
by the hands, and yelled for the
'.printer's devil' to "bring the gentle
men chairs"
The two redoubtable Silver Stars
looked at each other very much per-
picked, and seemed at loss whether
to sis down or dash out of the Office.
Finally they adopted the former
plan, and pulling their chairs over
near the door, so as to be ready to
start out at the first sign of hostili-
ties, sat sIspiciously cycling the edi-
tor who intrenched himself behind
a mass of paper, pencil in hand.
"Now, then, tell me all about the
game, and I'll write it down."
"Well, the Irish Boys, they was a
braggin' they could beat us, and we
had twenty-five cents which said
they couldn't. We played 'em and
give 'em six goose eggs"
"Oh, now, boys" said the editor,
"don't tell any liesl 1t is wrong to
lie. Where did you get goose eggs
this time of year?"
!. The catcher and the short-stop of
| the Silver Stars looked at "the edi-
tori in amazement and then seemed
to be mentally deciding that he was
| an Internal idiot.

catcher of the Silver Stars, who was
the first to recover from the shock
| to which they had been subjected,
"that we whitewashed EN-"
90, see," said the editor, with a
sudden burst of intelligence, "you
put whitewash over them until they
looked like goose eggs. BY Jove!
that was good idea.'
"No,'' said the catcher of the Sill
yer Stars, with rising ire, "we skunk
ed 'em, you know-skunked 'em."
"Skunked 'em-what do you mean
by that ?"
why, we Chicagoed 'em-gin 'em

most bursting into roar of laughter

came over the faces of the two Silver
Stars. $50 right on"
ave got right on ter the balls of
the pitcher of the Irish Boys in the
last innin's, and we pounded the life
out of him."
"Hold on" said the editor, rapid
ly writing: "The Silver Stars stood
on the ball in the first inning, and al
most killed the pitcher of the Irish
Boys when he tried to get it,"
For two whole minutes the Silver
Stars regarded each other in speech
less establishment. Then the short
stop pityingly asked
Mister, did you ever play ball?'
