A FAREWELL.

With uncovered head. on the threshold he
stood:
With an humble and downcast mien:
| And with scOrnful lip she faced him there.
As proud as an injured queen.
And 80 thew stood in the last red rays
OF Phoebus' golden glow:
And with sorrOwing eyes he gazed abroad.
And knew. with pang. he must go.
Well he knew. in his heart. he had
wronged her:
Yet felt no sense of shame
For the easy faith of woman's trust
Is mans legitimate game.
And so. though he bowed beneath her
scorn.
And with anguish his spirit tossed.
He felt but the sting of outraged pride
OF man who has played and lost
Deep in the dust was he humbled;
Hel who so often had won.
And entangled woman's sympathy
With a web so artfully spun.
And now. rs he felt her cold disdain.
Like a hushman's feathered dart.
lie thought his own mesh had caught him
at last.
And she held the key to his heart
Don't turn from me now" he had
pleaded.
In an agonv of appeal
And with naughty glance she had spurned
him.
Like serpent beneath her heel.
Ask me not to forgive the base deceit
With which YOU have won my heart.
The world is wide. / will try to forget:
But here, at this post, We must part.
Like a wolf in the garb of sheep You
came.
With honeyed phrases and soft.
And I. a weak woman. have listened.
And believed but once too oft"
With lettering step and Blended head
He turned to go his way.
Yet halted to voice one last appeal
In the dusk of the diving day
Lady he said. II KEEP me word.

the new method Is more than assured
One Of the primary agents in this
method Of restoring diseased mental
faculties is the system OF physical cul-
ture. slowly perfected after several
years OF experiment. and now brought
20 such gratifying effect that il is re
garded as one Of the chief features
Of the institution In fact the hospi-
tai may De said 10 be an athletic club
where IS per cent of the members are
active athlstes. OF both sexes. some Of
them achieving astonishing perfection
and all Of them deriving from daily
systematic exercise upon approved
methods. inestimabIe benefits.
Upon being admitted into the insti-
tuition every patient who is physically
able TO stand exercise is compelled
TO enter one Of the classes in calls
themes and slowly advanced in these
exercises as the personal improve
ment OF the patient justifies. The re-
suit is that there are now several
teams OF no mean ability-football.
baseball. basketball. tennis. tugs of
war. etc.-as veil as sprinters, jump
ers. bowlers. greased-pole climbers
and tGmblers, who could take part in
an interstate athletic tournament with
great credit to themselves and the in
stitution whose colors they might
wear.
On certain gala DAYS during the
year athletic contests are given. with
prizes for the victors. and it is amaz-
ing 10 see what rivalry and interest
there is among all the patients, par.
Elephants and spectators alike. The
efficacy of physical cul-
ture in the treatment Of the insane IS
firmly and fully established. Diseased
minds are too often the result of a
diseased state of the body If the
body may first of all be brought to its
normal condition the effect upon the
mind is immediate and lasting.
Whereas the experiments in what are
known as the color cure" and "mu-
sic cure" for the insane are somewhat
yet promising withal. there
Is no doubt whatever about the ply
steal culture remedv. II is for this
reason that a certain amount Of sys-
tematic exercise is compulsory with |
every patient who is able TO under
take It.

BASE BALL.

The game of base b all at Canasn last Saturday between the Great Barring tons and Canaans was one of the un- pleasant affairs which do not occur on the diamond as frequently in late years as in former years. According to base ball rulos the Great Barringtons for feited the game and the score stands 9 to O in favcr of Canaan, although the game stood 3 to in the ninth inning. when Great Harrington made a kick and refused to play any more. The circumstances are these: Great Bar rington had finished their ninth inning and Canaan went to bat with the score standing 3 to ? in favor of Ct. Barring ton. Canaan had only one man out when Ward made run for Canaan, and left two men on bases (2d and 3d). Ct. Barringtons claimed Ward was out, and they refused to continue the game. Ga naans informed them that unless they played out the inning they could not draw any money. They quit playing. but just before leaving for home they agreed to be satisfied if Canaan would pay their expenses of about $1l 00. Canaan finally consented to pay that amount rather than have ill feeling be- tween the clubs. The battery for Bar. rington was: Grown, p, and Mulhall, 0; Canaan: Ward. p, and Homer Guern. sey, c. Umpire, Charles Dodge.
 At Pittsfield last Saturday the score was Pittsfeld 3, Dalton o. Mighty" Guernsey pitched for Fittsfeld.
