bination appeared in Auckland It was
known in this country that the enterprise
ing inhabitants Of that city were anxious
to give 500 month and travelling ex-
penses to some expert American who would
go over there and spend q season instruct
ing the inhabitants in the game. No one
has yet taken the offer. but 1t is said to be
still open. Meantime the New Zealanders
have tried their hands at base ball without
the services of an instructor. How they
succeeded may best be told by Mr.. James
T. Cranston, formerly a resident of this
country. and now In this city on a business
trip for his Auckland house.
1T was like a breath of air from ones
native place." said Mr.. Cranston, ito see
the good old game played in Auckland. Yet
! could not witness the scene without sad
ness, for somehow, in the nearly twenty
years sin 90 / used to play it in this coun-
try. the game has undergone several strange
changes. My memory was first offended by
the bird-cage arrangement that I saw lying
on the grass near the catcher. had no
notion Of what its use could be until the
catcher put 1t on. and what was my surprise
to see the umpire put one on also. Before
that point was reached. however. was
startled by another circumstance that. If
had been quick enough. might have ex-
planned the bird-cage; that was the extra
ordinary style Of delivering the ball. and
the tremendous speed it attained. In my
time. you know. the bill was pitched, not
thrown, and the effect was q mere toss,
compared to the cannon-ba velocity at

much less send it outside the diamond 1t
was great surprise to see striker bat the
ball away out of reach of the outfelders.
And SO on throughout the game there was
a succession of surprises for an old timer;
the splendid feld-play by which the score
was Kept down to few uallies instead of
running up to twenty or more on side.
Well, the game caught on. as you say.
and all Auckland was agog about 1t. The
mines had not been gone a week when an
attempt was made by number OF citizens
to play a game. I took my share in the
proceedings. though not as player. AS q

that in the game your professional mines

the umpire, and that fewer balls were called

would my New Zealand friends say about
this conflict of authority? Then, there

The next difficulty occurred when two

collding with each other. Each thought
the other to blame. and time had to be
called to reconcile them. In fact. it began
to look as II the position OF umpire was to
be the unusual one OF peacemaker. instead
of general disturber. I was rudely disa-

HOWARD CHAFF1N, of New Holland,
Ohio, whose domestic relations are not
the pleasantest, attempted to brighten
his wife by sending her the following
note: "When you get this you will be
widow. You will find my body in
the stable" Mrs. Chaffin received this
startling news with considerable nom
chalance, and, it is alleged, got out her
husbands best clothes and began to
brush them for the funeral. She sent
her daughter to the stable, who re-
turned, saying he was not dead, but
looked lawful bad" Fastening to the
stable, Mrs. Chafin found her husband
suspended from the rafter. In her
efforts to release him she discovered
that he had passed the cord under his
arm, and that there was not the slight
est prospect of death ensuing from
strangulation. Securing good, stout
stick, she belabored him until he cried
for mercy and begged to be released
from his awful position.
