PALMYRA II, BURLINGTON 9.
Palmyra defeated Burlington on the
latter's ground after the home team had
apparently won the game. At the end of
the third inning the score stood 9 to G.,
when game was called until the rain
stopped. Soon after play was resumed,
Mccain, who had been kicking constantly
at the decisions ON balls and strikes, was
ordered from the field by the umpire, and
Randall was substituted He received
poor support. In the ninth inning Pal
myra tied the score. In the tenth the
visitors scored two runs with the assist
ance of wild overthrow to first by Car
frey.

FAITH.

A happy child plays on the floor.
And stacks his blocks and sings.
And he knows naught of ancient lore,
And naught of worldly things;
But faith is in his heart, and when
'Tis dark he kneels to pray.
And what is all the lore of men-
The fairest fruit of brush or pen
Against the faith he has-the faith I, too
could claim, one day?
Beside the great cathedral door
A poor old woman stands,
A stranger unto worldly lorc,
With knotted tired hands!
But faith is rooted in her breast.
She hears the bell above,
And on the Book her lips are prest,
And when tits night she goes to rest
Triumphantly believing in her Saviour's
holy love!
o sage, what Is the lore you teach?
o man of science, all
The wise conclusions that you reach
Are pitiful and small
Beside the faith of him who plays
About upon the floor
Beside the faith of her whose days
Were sunless If she might not raise
The Book to trusting lips that say an ave
at the door.
