BASEBALL CHAT.

A definite arrangement has at last
been made with the Boston triumvirs

club to play off a tie game on the Polo

The young men were shown into q
bedroom of more than ordinary size on
the upper floor. Everything about the
house was of the most dainty and scru.
pulous cleanliness, and an air of cheer
full comfort pervaded the place. Mrs.
Bartlett was evidently housekeeper
to be proud of. Two large pitchers of
cool soft water awaited them, and the
wash, as had been predicted, was most
refreshing.

cheeky to accept mans hospitality
after knocking him down.

The table was covered with a cloth
as white and spotless as good linen can
we'll be. The bread was genuine home
made, a term so often misused in the
cities. 1t was brown as to crust and
haky and light as to interior. The but
ter, cool from the rock cellar, was of q
lovely golden hue. The sight of the
well-loaaed table was most welcome to
the eyes of hungry travellers. There
was, as Yates afterwards remarked,
abundance and plenty of it."
''Come, father" cried Mrs. Bartlett,
as the young men appeared, and they

up at young Hiram and winked. The
boy flushed with pleasure under the
comprehensiveness Of that wink. It
included him in the attractive halo Of
crime that enveloped the fascinating
personality Of the man from New York.
Itseemed to say:
.sThat's all right, but we are men Of
the world. We know. y
The tea dishes having been cleared
away, Yates got no more glimpses OF
the girl through the open door. He
rose from his lowly seat and strolled
towards the gate with his hands in his
pockets. He remembered that he had
forgotten something and cudgeled his
brains to make out what it was He
gazed down the road at the house Of
the Towards, which ma -urally brought
to his recollection his meeting with
the young girl in the road. There was
a pang of discontinue in this thought,
when he remembered the accomplish
ments attributed to her by Mrs. Bart
lett. He recalled his condescending
tone to her, and recollected his anxiety
about the jug. The jug! That was what
he had forgotten He flashed a glance
at old Hiram, anG noted that the farm
er was looking at him with something
like reproach in his eyes. Yates moved
his head almost imperceptibly to-
wards the barn, and the farmers eyes
dropped to the floor of the veranda.
The young man nonchalantly strolled
past the end of the house.
81 guess I'll go to look after the
horses" said the farmer, rising.
Here's looking at you" said Yates,
strolling into the barn, taking a tele
scopic metal cup from his pocket and
blinking it into receptive shape by a
jerk of the hand He offered the now
elongated cup to Hiram, who declined
any such modern improvement.
'sHelp yourself in that thing. The
jugs good enough for me-"
''Three fingers of the liquid gurgled
out into the patented vessel, and the
farmer took the jug after furtive look
over his shoulder.
'sWell, here's luck And the news

finger, as if it were metallic opera

The farmer drank silently from the
Jug itself. Then he smote in the cork
with his open palm.
..sBetter bury it in the wheat bin" he
said, norosely. ''The boy might find it

as the golden grain flowed in wave
over the submerged jar. II say, old
man, you know the spot; you've been

Bartlett's lowering countenance in
dicated resentment at the imputation,
but he neither affirmed nor denied.
Yates strolled out Of the barn, while

veranda in prompt answer to the sum-
mons.
*'This is my son, gentlemen" said
Mrs Bartlett, indicating a young man
WHO stood in non committal attitude
near the corner of the room. The pro-
lessor recognized him as the person
who had taken charge of the horses
when his father came home. There
was evidently something of his fathers
deneanor about the young man, who
,awkwardly and silently responded to
the recognition Of the strangers.
"And this is my daughter, continued
the good woman. 'Now, what might
your names be?''
! ''My name is Yates, and this is my
friend, Prof. Remark, of Tronto,"
pronouncing the name Of the fair city
In two syllables, as is, alas! too often
done. The professor bowed, and Yates
cordially extended his hand to the
young woman. SHOW do you do, Miss
Bartlett?" he said. II am happy to
meet you
The girl smiled very prettily, and said
she hoped they had a pleasant trip out
from Fort Erie.
ooh, we had," said Yates, looking for
moment at his host, whose eyes were
fixed ON the tablecloth, and who ap-
peared to be quite content to let his
wife run the show. 1.-THE roads little
rocky in places, but it's very pleas
ant"
''Now you sit down here, and you
here" said Mrs. Bartlett; 'tand do
hope you have brought good appetites
with you.''
The strangers took their places, and
Yates had q chance to look at the
younger member Of the family. which
opportunity he did not let slip. It was
hard to believe that she was'the daugh-
ter of so crusty man as Hiram Bart
lett. Her cheeks were rosy, with dim
pies In them that constantly came and
went, in her incessant effort to keep
from laughing. Her hair, which hung
about her plump shoulders, was love-
II golden brown. Although her dress
was Of the cheapest material, it was
neatly cut and fitted; and her dainty
white pinafore added that touch OF
wholesome cleanliness that was so mo-
5aceable everywhere in the house. a
bit Of blue ribbon at her white throat
and q flower Of the spring just below
it completed 9 charming picture, which
more critical and less susceptible man
than Yates might have contemplated
with pleasure. 4 @s.s q
Miss BARTLETT sat smilingly at oneend
Of the table, and her father grizzly at=
the other. The mother sat at the side,
apparently looking on that position g
one Of vantage for commanding the.
whole field and keeping her husband
and her daughter both under her eye.
The teapot and cups were set before
the young woman. She did not pour

never was better motto made than
the one you learnt when you were

about:

to the reader Of a story, one of those
liberties worth fighting for. Without
it, who would be brave enough to be-
gin book? With it, even the dullest
volume may be made passably inter-
esting. 1t must have occurred to the
observant reader that this world
might be made brighter and bet
ter if authors only would leave out
what must be skipped. This the
successful author will not do, for
he thinks highly of himself, and if the
unsuccessful author did it it would not
matter, for he is not read.
The reader of this story has, Of
course, come to no portion that invites
skipping. Sheer he-has read faith
fully up to these very words. This
most happy state of things has been,
brought about first by the Intelligence
Of the reader and secondly by the
consciousness of the writer. The
mutual cooperation So charmingly con-
tinued thus far encourages the writer
to ask favor of the reader. The
story now enters period that
Mr.. Yates would describe as stirring.
To compare small things with great,
it's course might be likened to that OF
the noble river near which it's scene is
situated. The Niagara flows placid1y
along for miles and then sud-
denly plunges down a succession OF
turbulent rapids to the final ca
tastrophe. If the writer were a.
novelist, instead of simple re-
porter of certain events, there would
be no need of asking the indulgence Of
the reader. If the writer were dealing
with creatures of his own imagination
instead of with fixed facts, these crea-
lures could be made to do this or that.
as best suited his purposes. Such, how,
ever, is not the case; and the exciting.
events that must be narrated claim
precedence over the placid happenings
which, with little help from the read
er's imagination, may be taken as read.
The reader is therefore to know that
four written chapters which should
have interviewed between this and thSs
one preceding have been sacrificed.
But few lines are necessary to show
the state Of things at the end Of tho,
fourth vanished chapter. When peo.1'
pie are thrown together, especially *
when people are young, the mutnal[i.
relationship existing between them
rarely remains stationary. It d1tft

The Duties of a Party Whip.

REWRITING to the duties of a whip and
patronage secretary, it is an astonishing
fact that gentlemen of birth and social
position can be found to fill the post
The Junior whips duties are not only
onerous, but irksome. They sit or stand
in the outer lobby of the house from halt
past to half past IL at night, and they
ask every member who passesswhere he
is going, whether he is paired and when
he will be back. If he is not paired,
they have either to find pair for him
or to prevent him from passing out by
coaxing or threats, the former for pref
erence When their party are in, these
gentlemen have to attend their office
from IL to 8. Their hours of duty are,
therefore, from II a m. to IL p. M, or
IS hours, with intervals for lunch and
dinner, and this they do for FL, 900 a
year. When their party is out, they do
it, minus their Office work, for nothing.
In addition to keeping an eye on his
juniors, the chief whip, who has f2, 600
a year, deals with the members on their
more touchy side. 1t is he who practical
ly distributes ribbons and titles and sees
that cards of invitation are sent to this
man and that; that no one is given un.
due preference delicate duty which re.
quires much tact and skill Mr.. Tom
Ellis is popular, and that goes great
way. He has tact, and that goes further.
At present he lacks experience, but that
will come.-Cardiff Mail
