Job Printing,

During the past twelve months, has
come to THE ENQUIRER office
unsolicited, from North Carolina
and Virginia. Why this is, is a
matter for YOU to determine. We
may not do the finest work on
earth; but we do the work that we
undertake, the best that we know
how, and the quality executed in
THE ENQUIRER office evidently
suits some customers, while we are
sure that it was not on account of a
HIGH PRICE that brought the
work our way.

BALLADE OF REJECTED MANU-
SCRIPTS,

Like those that in the classic song
About Ulysses palace came,
And courted ardently and long,
Without success, his prudent dame;
So, wrinkled with the crease of shame,
a thumbed and tattered coterie,
These WOO publicity and fame,
My suitors of Penelope.
While noisy showmen bang the gong,
To advertise their efforts lame,
My modest masterpieces throng
The porch, and urge a constant claim;
An eloquent appeal they frame
In periods terse or meters free,
But their reception is the same,
My suitors of Penelope.
Yet here is poetry sweet and strong,
That none can criticize as tame,
And prose, or l am strangely wrong,
That Addison could scarcely blame;
Moreover, sponsored with my name,
And lowered with stamps to pay the
fee,
They face each failure of their aim,
My suitors Of Penelope.
ENVOY.
Friend, when devoted to the flame
Their end shall blackened ashes be,
None will deny they perisned game,

les.
To those who believe in the physical
and disciplinary value Of outdoor
sports, it is not more gratifying to see
their extraordinary popularity than to
note the better standards which the
most far-seeing, enthusiastic, and gen
tlemanly devotees have succeeded in
establishing almost everywhere in the
conduct of competitive athletics. Es-
pecially in colleges there has been an
enormous stride forward in the matter
of drawing clearly and exactly the
lines of professionalism. To one who
is a stranger to the inside Of college
competitive games 1t may seem at first
thought that the efforts for such strict
tests of professionalism are resulting
in very hair-splitting arguments, but
any one who has realized the dishonor-
able effects of mixing to the slightest
degree the professional spirit with the
amateur spirit will need no argument
to understand how important it is that
the colleges should cease playing on
their teams men who are having their
way paid through college, or who are
playing for money, or who ever have
played for money. good fight has
been made. and has succeeded not only
in the east. where these matters have
been under discussion for a very long
time, but also in the south and west,
which have come to the front in ath-
letic competitions so rapidly that no
time had been given to prevent these
abuses.-From The Worlds Sporting

thought mills was sufficient. but
when asked to explain how the city
could be run on that basis he gave no

Someone suggested that in estimating
the cost of running the different de-

had taken the figures in the mayors

the valuation at S35,0O0 600, Mr.. Stew
AIT figured that at the rate of mills
on the dollar the amount would only
reach S2S0,0o0 leaving a deficiency
of SAG, 500. He said that while he ia
vored a low rate, he could not possibly
understand how they would be able to
pull through at the old rate. At Z
mills on the dollar the amount would
only reach $245, 900, leaving a still
