We went up to Mayersville on
Thursday to witness a game OF ball
between the Mayersville and Prosi-

the Mayersville nine, they played a
nine from Rolling Fork. They were
too much for our team, and showed
themselves to be ball players. and
chronic knickers. They left the field
when about eight ahead, because q
decision was made that did not suit
them, which was uncalled for. The
girls were on the side of Rolling Fork
too, and that ratified our boys. Our
bank president made a nash; but il
wouldn't do for him to know who the
sweet girl was. Our boys are always
treated royalty by the good people o.

QUEEN, MISS EDDIE BASS.

Kind friends, sweet friends. what can say
To welcome you this morn of May?
And you, my subjects all, SO true,
Can words express my thanks to your
Alas my tongue is far too weak
To utter all that would speak;
AS for my heart, tits OVERLOOKING,
My ughts-they're coming and they're
going.
Thought, feeling. heart can ne'erreveal
The fond emotions that feel.
Oh that there was window here,
That you might see this fountain clear,
This fountain of the heart within.
Whose stream is pure, and knows no sin!
Then could you see your image there
Upon its bosom bright and fair,
Reflected on its flowing tide,
Where Love and Peace go side by side.
You've crowned me queen of Flora's hours.
Here in this realm of buds and flowers,
You've placed this wreath upon my brow,
So you are all my subjects now.
But my commands shall all be light,
This rod shall Danish care from sight,
All that it touches shall combine.
The closer round my heart to twine,
And bind my memory to this day,
Where / am crowned the Queen OF May.
Then let our merriment be free,
Let care and sorrow from us flee,
Let heart to heart IN quick response
Each BEAT in unison at once;
And let us make this morn of May
So pleasant, that we'll take away
Sweet recollections OF the hour,
That shall refresh us, as the shower
That decks the rose with drops o. dew,
And gives each leaf a greeher hu3.
And now, to thank you any more,
I tear / would your patience bore;
So, with few more words, I'll close,
And give the day to all OF those
Who've come from far and near to see
This pageant meath the greenwood tree.
God bless you all And when again
The spring shall gladden. earth and men,
o may we meet beneath this grove,
To pay natures shrine our love
And you. my subjects, good and true,
You loving Queen now bows to you
And prays that God may bless the day
You crowned her here, your Queen OF May

MAY DAY SPEECHES.

Last weeks limited space prevented
us from giving the verses ofthe Queen
of May and her maids of honor and
her attendants. Since then her Males-
ty's subjects have requested that they
be published, so we print them below
in the order of their recitation.
HERALD, MASTER IsHAM BEARD.
Once more the earth with gladness rings.
And nature all her praises sings;
The birds chirp sweetly from each power,
And fragrance fingers round each flower.
We come again with open arms
To welcome Spring with all her charms,
To render thanks to God above
For all these tokens OF His love.
We come again to crown this day,
With loyal hearts. our Queen Of May,
To place upon her brow so fair
The wreath we've woven with such care,
And then proclaim her to the world,
mid Flora's banners here unfurled,
The sovereign of all the land.
The May Queen on her royal stand.
And now good people, list while.
Put on your best and sweetest smile;
And while each one will say speech,
We hope it will IA lesson teach,
A lesson that will touch the heart,
As one by one we do our part.
All hail again this happy day.
| All hail our lovely Queen of Mayl
1sT MAID, MISS CARRIE WHITE.
1 come fair Queen to give to you
These tokens OF affection true.

Just newly on earth's bosom born.
My heart is full OF love for thee.
| For thou art fair as fair can be;
| And here before thy throne stand
To hear with joy thy least command.
Thy voice is music to my ear.
Its accents soft long to hear;
All that crave Of thee or thine,
Is that thy love be linked with NINE
| This tribute then accept, o Queen,
For surely thou hast never seen

On the Fourth of July next a
fortyffth star will be added to the
American flag. The Stars and
Stripes have seen many changes.
In 1895 there were fifteen stars and
fifteen stripes, but in 1878 congress
passed law directing that hence
forth there should be thirteen stripes,
in honor of the original thirteen
states, and that on the Fourth of July
following the admission of every new
state a star should be added to the
blue union of the flag. And since
that act congress has never said a
word about the flag. 1t never di-
rected what the size or proportions
of the flag should be, and how the
stars should be arranged. So the
war and navy departments each
designed their own flag, arranging
their own flag, arranging the stars
to suit themselves. Lately, how
ever, the two departments have come
to an understanding, and hereafter
there will be but one standard and
official flag.
The new star representing Utah,
is one at the right hand end of the
third row from the bottom. Ii was
represented on the official draft by
an extra star cut out of paper and
pasted on. 1t was given this posi-
ton because it balances best with
