Rev. A. J. Sturtevant spoke of the

they are so, and not as if they meant

Nine games at handball were played
on Saturday night, and the interest in
the players was good all the way
through. Gundrum beat Tracy the first
game, but lost the last two, the score
being 21-7, 19-21, S-21. McCaw won
three games from Kune by a score of
21-5, 21-4, 21-1S.
Kune improved 50 much in the last
game that many thought he would win,
but McCaw ran in some crosscut serves
which were impossible to reach, and
Kune lost
The last SET was played by Bishop
and Philip. Both went in to win, but
Bishop has lost so much of his old
time elasticity that at times he is
clumsy. He made it hard work for
Philip. however, especially in the first
game.
Philip is cool ond steady, making
swift low serves which are hard to re-
turn. His attitude while playing is one
of determination, and he is improving
in gracefulness and in the ease with
which he plays. He won three games

CANTON SACRAMENTO.
It's Members Quite Elated Over
Their Victory Down South.

Captain o. w. Erlewine and about fif-
teen members of Canton Sacramento,
PatriarcEs' Militant, arrived home last
evening, bringing with them the beau
tiful silver trophy won at the grand
drill al Los Angeles, and the $500 cash
prize. Most Of the other members will
probably arrive to-day.
Those who came last evening were
in high feather over their victory,
which resulted in again bringing TO
Sacramento the handsome silver trophy
which has for a number of years been
the spoils of the victors in the annual
competitive drill. a year ago the To-
cal Patriarchs lost the trophy, and that
they succeeded at Los Angeles in Wrest-
ing it from their former victors is

AN EXPERIMENT IN SONG.
Brow1y's Attempt to Develop the
Baby's Natural Gift of Music.

Browly served full apprenticeship as
a bachelor before he was married, and
now he is the proud father of a girl
baby. He has his own ideas as to how
she should be reared, and when Brow
ly has ideas they are not subject to re
vision.

musical ability?"

vocalists for generations back I'm an
exception, but you know how charm
ingly Bess sings"
The gift is hereditary, Mrs. Browly,
but it can be dwarfed, if not entirely
destroyed That nurse you have is
about as musical as a jay bird. Her
efforts at singing are as entertaining
as the filing of a cross-cut saw. Her
nasal notes cut like two-edged sword
and her lullabies are enough to awaken
the seven sleepers. The impression
made on the wax-like mind of the baby
will utterly wipe out her grand her
itage of music Don't count. the cost,
but get a cultivated singer to act as
nurse
Mrs. Browly complied by getting a
self proclaimed prima donna. she
sang for the whole neighborhood with
out extra charge. She dressed f1ve
times a day. and had her meals sent
to her room, and was off duty most of
the time because her throat was not
right When she heard Aunt Bess"
sing she went into a tantrum of Jeal-
ousy, ard served notice that her en-
gagement was at an end AS the baby
was thin, the mother worried, and the
servants up in arms, Browly told the
high-priced nightingale to go, and now
