FOOTBALL.
HO,c the came appeared to a Reporter.

That was an interesting tragedy which
entertained 10000 people at Springfield
Saturday. To those who had no libretto
ii looked as though band of eleven rob
bers under Capt. Waters brought on a
small oval grip sack, evidently filled with
precious stones and they were very anxl-
GUS to keep it to themselves. Capt. Wa
tiers and bis team took the grip to the
middle of the field and pinched it and
took it in their arms and seemed de-
lighted.
Then another band OF brigands under
Capt Hinkey came from anoth corner
of the field, just as the Indians do in Buf-
falo Bills wild west. They rolled around
on the ground little while and then they
sighted the red stockings of their foes
They drew up in line Of battle and the
way they sailed into the Waters gang and
after that grip of diamonds was caution.
Whenever a fellow objected to their tax
ing the grip they got on his neck and sal
there until he said that he had had
enough. Then if one of the fellows in
Capt. Hinkey's crowd tried 10 take the
grip away from one of the red stockings
another red stocking came up and threw
the man from Hinkey's crowd down on
the ground and gave him couple Of
of kicks in the eye for being so fresh.
Every once in a while u doctor was
asked to come out on the field and liven
up dead man. If the dead man refused
to come to life his understudy took his
place and the play went on. This lasted
for forty.five minutes when the first act
was over. The second acL was very much
like the first, except that the blue stock
ings under Capt. Hinkey had it all their
own way, and after killing two or three
villains, who tried to steal the grip, they
took it away and everybody except ten
or fifteen thousand people said he was
pleased. 1t was a good play aud enjoy
ed it very much.-7he Tourist, IN Hart
ford Post.

POETR Il.
A FRAGMENT.

All thought begins in feeling-wide
In the great mass its base is hid,
And, narrowing up to thought, stands S'o'i-
fed,
A moveless pyramid.
Nor is he far astray who deems q,
That every hope which rises and grows oroao
In the worlds heart by ordered impulse
streams
From the great heart Of God.
God wills, man hopes In common souls
Hope is but vague and underlined
Till from the poets tongue the messsge.rolls-
A blessing to his kind.
1t may be glorious TO write
Thoughts that shall glad the two or three
High souls, like those far stars that come III
sight
Once in century.
But better far it is to speak
One simple word. which, now ana then
Shall waken their free nature in the weak
And friendless sons OF men;
To write some earnest verse or line,
Which, seeking not the praise OF art
Shall make n clearer faith, and manhood shihe
In the untutored heart.
He who doth this, in verse or prose,
Nav be forgotten in his day,
But surely shall be crowned at last with those
Who live and speak for aye.
James Russell LOlrcu.
