visedly when say that Trafford has
not enjoyed the privileges and pre-

with the captaincy of anything. He

nor does any one, for he has not had
the opportunity of showing what he
can do untrammelled, but it is the
impression of those qualified to ad-
vance an opinion on the subject that
he is entirely competent. Nobody
will deny that in the men compos.

there are good football possibilities.
Five of the men are certainly veter-
aus OF acknowledged ability; indeed
considered to be as good men in
their positions as there are on the
field to.day-Trafford, Lake, Cor.

others, Emmons and Waters are
certainly first class, while in Dexter,
Bangs and Mackie there is material
of the most promising nature.

Twas a summer ago when lie left me ere,
A suhimer of smiles with never tear,
Till said to him a with sob, My dear!
Goodbye, my lover, good
For love him, oh! as the stars love night
And my cheeks for him flashed red and white,
When he first called me his hearts delight;
Goodbye, my lover; goodbye!
The touch Of Ills hand WAS thing divine
Az he sat with me in the soft ,i1ioonshlne
And drank of MY love as then drink wine;
Goodbye. my ldyer' goodbye!
And never night as knelt IN prayer,
In gown as white as our own soul were,
But in fancy he came and kihsed me there
Goodbye, my lover; goodbye!
But now, o God! what an empty place
My whole heart is! or the old embrace
And the kiss loved, there is not trace;
Goodbye. my loycr; good bye?
He sailed not over the stormy sea,
And he went not down in the waves, not he:
But oh, he is lost, for he married me;
Good bye, my lover good bye?

Thus speaking, tossed he then the
pearls about, and those they fell upon
were so much awed by Buddha's words
they scarce put up their hands to CLASP
the treasure fast.
"But Buddha, said man whose face
showed puzzled wonderment, may nc
