PRODUCTION of the good, honest sport Of
smuggling DR.. Samovar has devoted his
time almost wholly to studying the
new games and pastimes that have
been brought here from America. One
OF the most important and popular of
these games is played twice a week in
a large field, and in the presence of
vast numbers of people
The game, according to the account
given by the learned philosopher, is
played by nineteen people, one of
whom is called the Umpires1y, and the
rest being divided into four groups,
called respectively the Rooteroffs. AIuff-

at him by one OF the players, and he
strikes it until he either manages to

The PitchervitCh, as the player who

called G GIassarmsl<y, a term OF de-

that he has decip.hered from an Inscrlp-
