In the baseball annals of Texas,

which, whether an actual occurrence
or not, has been repeated so often
that 1t is invested with force Of fact.
On a hot Fourth OF July back in

position behind the bat without mask,
and the pitcher knew OF no curve or
toe plate. there was a game OF ball be-
tween the Texas Singers and the
Timonium Little Potatoes. But Hard

The Sluggers had got in some good

The Now Edition OF Stevenson.

Three more volumes OF the sBiographi-
cal' edition of the works Of Robert Louis
Stevenson have come to us from Charles
Soribners Sons. They include THE Master
OF Ballantrae,' Treasure Island" and
prince Otto The type is large. the page
clear and handsome. and the size Of the
volumes handy and convenient for the
pocket. We fancy that for most people
this arrangement Of the twenty -four volumes
of Stevenson In form that does not take
up overmuch space will prove most attract
i've.
We wish we could praise the notes by Mrs.
Stevenson that give the title and the copy
right to the edition. II Is unavoidable to
compare them with the admirable and
illuminative introduotions that Mrs. Anne
Thaokeray Richie has prehxed to an edition
Of her fathers works. but even taken by
themselves they are disappointing. The
object seems to be rather to attach Steven
sons family to his work than to cast any
Light or give any information Of value about
the man. Still, the introductions arc very
brief and can be easily passed over.
The same publishers send out little
volume Of extracts In q much smaller
volume with the title THE Pocket r. L. s.,
Being Favor1te PASSAGE from the Works
of Stevenson. The editor states that:
= This little book has been compiled for the
use Of those who love Stevenson and call
him MASTER We presume that there are
people Wild approach on Bonded knees one
who, after ALL Is simply very good writer
Of English. and to such the little volume
may prove welcome.

Again . Story OF tho war.

The one remarkable thing about Serena"
by Virginia Frazer Boyle. is that any one
thought 1t worth while to write it. Not
that It Is not very pretty story Of the Old
plantation life 'befo' de wah,' with the
gracious ladies' and gallant gentlemen
which that period produced. with the great
civil strife to furnish stirring opportunities
for heroism, and tho old faithful darky
to lend the touch Of pathos: but it ia tale
that has been told over and over again in
fiction, In poetry. on the stage, in the many
diaries and "Reminiscences which have been
flooding the literary market for the last
year. The only distinguishing feature of
the story u the roe played by the heroine
in putting on the uniform Of her cowardly
twin brother and taking his place in battle
to save the family honor. But to 60 through
all the old business Of burying the silver,
slashing the family portraits, fashioning
the Confederate flag from the ball gowns
Of loyal ladies, fighting the old battles and
hearing the old platitudes for he sake of hat
one touch Of novelty is too much to ask
in these hurried days when the real books
stand dusty in the library for want OF timet to
read. The book Is published by Virginia
Frazer Boyle.

Concerning Children.

One Of the chapters in Edward H. Cooper's

siders the prayers OF children. II includes
anecdotes. one Of which, to he found at
page 20. runs:
Il remember an eight-year-old child
whose maid was wont, as q rule, to bring
cake and milk for her final meal before
she got into bed. But the meal was ca
priciously varied now and again by the
substitution OF bread and butter for cake.
This mknd proceeding occurred one night
when the small person was unusually an
tdpathetic to bread and butter, and she
decided to test the efficacy Of prayer. At
the end Of murmured petitions for parents
and friends came a serious supplement-
% God, pray thee to give me cake for
supper tonight instead Of bread and butter ;
But when the prayer was finished and the
little petitioner looked round for results,
the tray stood there without change, and
Annette. tho maid, was stolidly folding UP
clothes In corner. This was bewildering q,
but she Judged 1t worth while to make
another attempt. The prayer was re-
sumed: o God, the bread and butter ia
still there. pray Thee to turn Annette's
hard heart The Intervention Of a weak
minded human listener caused the cake to
be brought on this occasion"
That sounds a little sophisticated. but

sometimes are. Did not Bret Harte con-
