NEW YORK, Sept. Is. The meeting of
the National league came to a close at
4:30 O'clock this afternoon. A resolution
was adopted discharging the confer
ence committee from further dealings
with the American association. Then
the league resolved, after talking mat
ters over, that the national agreement
as last adopted was the most available
means of restoring peace. The follow
ing resolutions were adopted:
Resolved. That the National league re-
affirm its often-repeated declaration that all
base ball leagues and associations should be
parties or subject to the national agreement
in order to protect territorial and contract
rights
Resolved, That the league expresses its re-
eTet that The American association on Feb.
Is, 1891. Withdrew from the present national
agreement, which it had been n few weeks
previously assisted i'll creating and promul-
eating.
Resolved, That the league would be glad
to welcome the return of the association as a
party 10 the national agreement in the same
manner as they withdrew therefrom, namely,
by notice TO the national board.
Resolved. That should the American asso-
citation become party TO the national agree
ment that all proposed amendments thereto
be considered and acted upon by all parties
10 said agreement.
This leaves matters in pretty much
the same condition as before. The
American association is not likely to
enter the national agreement unless
King, Baldwin, Reilly, Kelly, Stovey,
Bierbauer and other contract jumpers
are returned TO it. The league simply
invites the association to walk into Its
folds again. 1t is only preliminary
Skirmish, and is not likely to result in
peace. The league adjourned subject
to the call of the chair.

to take with him lusty youth who
wished 20 become sailor. But upon
learning that the boy was the son of a
clergyman the captain fatty refused to
take him.
Why" he exclaimed with show of
Indignation, 1.-THE young chap would be
sure to bring me bad Iuckp"
After great deal of urgin g,and upon
being assured that the youth was not at
all like his father, and that he was
rarely seen in church, unless he had
been dragged to the sacred edifice. the
captain consented to take the clergy
mans SON into his crew. At the same
time Capt. Jones was asked by mem
Der of the firm which had ehartere his
ship to take another boy. The profess
sion of the father of the second boy was
not mentioned, and the captain agreed
to take tile lad.
When the ship was a few days out he
learned, to his dismay, that the
second boy was also the son of clery-
man. Whenever the wind was unfavor-
able Capt. James was inclined to lay it
at the door of the two boys. If the
weather was Of an uncomfortable nat
IRE the sailors would lay it to the two
boys. The captain, however, only Wis
tied uncomfortable weather upon their
neadS when this was accompanied by
an unfavOrable wind. If the wind were
favorable it might be as wet or as raw
as it pleased for all Capt. James cared.
One day while the ship was beeaImed,
Capt. James was walking up and down
the poop deck with dissatisfied express
sion OH his face. His eye happened to
light upon one of the boys who was at
work upon the main deck, and, shaking
his fist at him, the captain exclaimed:
I'VE never will get good wind with
such fellows as you on board. i believe
you and that other minister's son are a
couple of Jonahs."
An hour later the captain saw the boy
leaning idly against the bulwark and
gazing pensively out upon the ocean.
Walking up to him, the captain cried
out in an angry tone:
What are you looking at you
Jonahe"
The boy turned TO the captain, and.
with the suggestio of twinkle in his
eye. he replied:
Il was looking to see if there was any
whale knocking around here"
AS soon as Capt. James saw the point
he INDUCED in sardonic grin, and,
turning from the boy, went into his
cabin.

MY SWEETHEART.

Whenever play on the Old guitar
The songs that my sweetheart taught me.
My thoughts go back to the summer time
when first in her tolls she caught me;
AUD once again | can hear the sound
or her gleefui voice blown over
The meadow. sweet with the scent of THYME
And pink with the bloom of clover
The faded ribbon is hanging still
here ner dimpIed fingers tied it
l used to envy 1t stealing round
Her neck, for she did not chide It:
And the inlaid pearl that her ringlets touched.
As she leaned above il lightly,
CLOVIS even now with hint of gold
That 1t once reflected brightly.
Whether her eyes were blue as the skies
On MONDAY in September
Or brown like those of startled fawn
can't for the world remember;
Dut when she lifted them up to mine
know that my young heart tingled
III time to the tender tune she sang
And the airy chords she jingled
Yet now, though sweep the dusty strings
BY her girlish spirit haunted
I'LL out OF the Old guitar there trips
A melody blithe. enchanted,
My pulses keep on their even way
And my heart has ceased its dancing.
For somebody else sits under the spell
OF the songs and sidelong CHANGING.
