there never was a moment when they mao
the ghost Of show. Mighty Tannchlh

fanny that the roOters have loved Tor
these many months. lie was as wild as
an unnamed deer, and he put the bah
everywhere but over the plate. This was
not all. Every now and then the visitors
would connect with his delivery, and they
did this so often that when the game
was over they had dozen nice Tits.
Seven players attempted TO support

who filled his contract 1 forget, Groves,

they did 50 frequently, some one OF the
Hustlers would forget this fact and 90

Origin OF Lilac.

Both name and tree are of Persian
origin, but came to us through Tur-
key. The name means "blueish" (see
Skeat), and indicates the color of the
flower. The tree is said to have been
brought to Vienna by Busbecq late in
the sixteenth century. The first men
tion of the name l have seen in Eng
lish is in Gerard, where it is given as
''lillach or lilach, and is said to have
been applied by "the later physicians"
to Syringa caerules, or 'Blew Pipe, T"
by which, evidently, Girard means the
lilac.
"These trees" he says, "grow not
wild in England, but l have them
growing in my garden in great plen-
ty." There are. as is well known,
different varieties, some white, some
of different shades of purple.
The lilac, says some punster silly,
Is named from smelling like li-yl
