II bring you the stately matron
named Christendom, returning be
draggled, besmirched and dishonored
from pirate raids in Kiao- Chou, Man
churia, South Africa, and the Philip
: pines, with her soul full of meanness,
her pockets full of Doodle and her
mouth full of pious hypocrites. Give
her soap and towel, but hide the look
ing glass."-Mark Twain's Greeting to
" the Red Cross Society.
S0Oh, little Christian song I'm going
to sing,
And both dollars and religion it will
bring.
It's about the white mans burden,
And its martyrs crown and guerdon,
With kind of catchy Barrack Ballad
swing.
P. S. It's IN easy trick to write that
sort of thing.
If you've seen an island shore
Which has not been grabbed before,
Lying in the track of trade, as islands
4 should,
With the simple native quite
Unprepared to make fight,
1-@Oh, you just drop in and take it for his
/ good.
oh, you kindly stop and take it for his
good,
IT. Not for love of money, be it under
IN stood,
But you row yourself to land,
With Bible in your hand,
y And you pray for him, and rob him,
\ for his good;
\ e he hollers, then you shoot him-for
his good.
There've been sad and bloody
scenes
In the distant Philippines,
Where we've slaughtered thirty thou
sand for their good,
And, with bullet and with brand,
Desolated all the land;
. But you know we only did it for their
I good.
Chorus Qortissimo, beginning with
a how'll:
for his good.
Don't you waste cartridge, give him
steel or WOOD
When he's wounded and he's down
Brain him, cause his skin is brown,
Only mind you do it for his good.
'sTake no prisoners" but kill them
for their good
Yes, and still more far away,
Down in China, let us say,
Where the "Christian" robs the "hea-
then" for his good,
You may burn and you may shoot,
~ You may fill your sack with loot,
But be sure you do it for his good.
Chorus:
When you're looting Chinese Buddhas
W for their good
Picking opals from their eyeballs made
of wood, q
AS you pry them out with care,
Just repeat little prayer,
To the purport that you do it for their
good;
, Make your pesky picking clearly I'M
derstood
Or this lesson can shape
To campaigning at the Cape,
.,A5Where the Boer is being hunted for his
good, >
He would welcome British rule
If he weren't blooming fool;
Thus you see that it is only for his
good.
Chorus (pianissimo):
So they're burning burghers' houses
1 for their good,
I AS they put the kerosene upon the
j wood,
I can prove them, if list,
Every man an altruist,
8 Making helpless women homeless-for
I their good;
u Leaving little children rootiess-for
their good.

"A gentleman. went into 4 ticket brokers'
Office yesterday afternoon to dispose of a
hrst-ciass ticket from Washington to

In Offering the ticket he volunteered the
story of how he came to have it. He:s:.id
he had met and fallen in love with .

had agreed to elope with him. They
reached the depot in Washington: he had

MARYLAND LACKED TEAM WORK

The Cadet team from the Virginia Poly
technic Institute upheld their reputation
here yesterday by defeating the Univer-
sity OF Maryland by a score Of is to in
the prettiest game seen on the local grid
iron this season
5 The score far from tells the closeness of
the play, for it was a fierce contest from
the time Hayden kicked off, sending the
pigskin to the Cadets twenty-yard line,
until time was called, just as the ball
landed on the Cadets forty-yard line
from punt by the same player.
Tire Maryland team put UP a good game
on the defensive, but their offensive was
distressingly weak, the individual play
being good in most. cases, but the team
work defective or almost entirely lacking.
The Cadets, on the other hand, were
strong in team work, and both their de-
fensye and offensive tactics We're good.
They repeatedly broke through ALarylands $
line for gains OF five, seven and ten yards,
their high play being exceedingly efec-
tive. u
There We're few. grand stand plays and
the score simply shows the effect OF the
superior playing on the part of the Cadet
team. Most Of the gains We're made by
hard line bucking through the guards and
tackles, although the first touchdown was
due TO a 1einL p!ayFC tue CadetS, Cdi peli-
