Upon the level deld behold
A gathering OF pleasures court
To emulate the Greeks OF old
In friendly rivalry and sport
Swift from the pitchers hands the bali
Flies till IL meets the bat. and then
Upward 10 scales the sky's blue wall.
Trembles and drops to earth again.
Then lifts long and iusty shout
That seems TO shake the very sun.
Who knows the score3 Is 10 an "out,"
Or did the player make "runs"
So every afternoon their play
Makes tougher muscles. redder cheeks,
And keeps our sturdy boys today
The rivals of the ancient Greeks.

A NOTE OF WARNING.
DUSTY" Miller Said to Be Dallylng with
tho PlnYer's nenhIY EnomY.

Dusty Miller Said to Bc DallyIng with
the Players Deadly Enemy,
Millersburg is mourning over the
temporary fall Of her hero. 1t is use
less to deny that Miller has slumped
fearfully in his play both at the bat and
in the field during the past few weeks
There are a lot of wise men who are
spreading broadcast the solution Of the
mystery. DUSTY Bob" Miller is not a
disciple Of Francis Murphy and does
not wear a blue ribbon. II he did It
would DO the easiest matter in the
world to fling denials at those who have
tales Of ghost dances at Bacchus shrine
to tell. Miller is what you might term
a moderate dallier with the liquids that
are bottled up. He once conquered an
appetite that has wrecked many a
better ball player than he is or ever will
be. King Kel traded life for pleasure
and grave diggers gave him the prize
that he won. In all kindness these
words are penned. The ball player who
dallies with booze is flirting with an
enemy that can break more friendships
in less time than any other advance
agent of Bad Luck. EVERYBODY knows
that the base ball public is tickle. The
growing about Mlller's play is evil
dence along that line Dusty Bob"
may think that he can stay on this side
Of the danger line. Perhaps he can,
but the consensus Of opinion is that If
he sprinkled chloride of lime on old
King Alcohol, Miller would rank as one
of the greatest players the league ever
saw. One Of the best stories DUSTY
Bob" ever told is that Of his rescue from
pitfalls worse than any he has ever
found in Cincinnati. Millersburg has
been proud Of her hero, and If DUSTY
Bob" is true TO himself and true TO the
club, Cincinnati will never be called
upon to apologize for the shortcomings
of her star righthelder.-C Cincinnati
Post.

drove the old lady out, burned the house
and shot the youngest child. This made
Sam Hildebrandt furious, and he COM
menced war of determination on the
vigilance committee. His first victim
was the leader, McElvane, whom he
shot from ambush while the man was
grading wheat. He also shot others,
and a big reward was offered for him,
either dead or alive.
On Aug. II, 1872, j. G, Breckenridge,
sheriff of Washington county, with a
force of constables, surrounded him in
the home Of John Williams. Constable
King and two men went to the back
door, while Breckenridge and one man
went to the front. The sheriff tried to
open the door, but found it locked He
knocked and called for Hildebrandt,
but received no answer from within,
Old man Williams was out at the barn,
and told the men that Sam was inside.
The sheriff told Williams to go in and
tell the outlaw to surrender, that he
would be treated as a prisoner and
should have fair and impartial trial.
Williams failed to gain admittance, but
the desperate jerked open the door and
fred at Breckenridge, who returned the
fire.
Leaving one man to guard the back
door, Constable King and one man
started around to where the shooting
was going on. Just as they were pass
ing between the houses they were shot

0ng had very prominent nose, which
had been the subject Of many joke.
In peeping around the corner OF his
shelter he presented conspicuous
mark, which was at once taken advan-
tage of by the assassin. At the crack
of the gun the tip of ongs big nose
flew off, and he at once proceeded to
lower the mile sprinting record several
minutes.
In the force OF deputies was a man
named McLane, who had, short time
before, ambushed Hildebrandt and
wounded him in the hip. The outlaw
had sworn to avenge this assault, and
waited patiently for McLane to show
himself He was finally rewarded by
seeing his enemy start to enter the
door Of the adjoining building. Just as
McLane darkened the door rifle shot
rang out, and McLane was shot
through the heart. He ran few yards
outside and fell dead. This shot was a
marvellous one, as Hildebrandt had to
shoot through a chink in the wall
where he was, diagonally across a
space Of 20 feet, through another small
hole in the wall Of the opposite house,
An attempt was then made to burn
him out, but failed. When night came
he crawled out between two pickets
and escaped in the darkness, In climb
ing over the fence he must have hurt
his wounded hip and fell, for his gun
was found the next morning, The gun
was taken possession Of by Dennis
o'Leary, who gave it to man in De
Sofa, Mo-, who claims 1t is the original

found by Mr., O'Leary were filed there
after the return from the chase by

tosi, Mo.

yet unnamed, which was crowded to the
wall last season by Henry Arthur
Jones's THE Masqueraders," The EN-
pire is mentioned in illustration Of the
American playwright's chances, because
its manager, Charles Frohman, has the
pick of all frst-class European produc-
lions, and the fact that his theater is to
have so much of the play output of this
side of the Atlantic means that the
hitherto comparatively neglected Amer
lean play-maker has this season the
best opportunity he ever had in his
life.
Going back to the original statement
that more money has been put into
plays this year than ever before, en-
phazisation of the fact will be had at
the very threshold of the season. The
big production at the Academy Of Music
of "The Sporting Duchess" affords elab
crate and glittering demonstration Of
it. 1t is said that upon one scene in
this melodrama Charles Frohman has
expended over 100000
The scene far exceeds in eye-invitlng
beauty and money investment the bril-
liant scene in THE Masqueraders," in
which there were nearly $4,000 worth
of French and English gowns That
scene was Lady Skene's reception.
Everything in it was imported, even the
