The Bears were invited by Muddy Pete i"
To go with him to East Side street
To- visit children who never see
Either grass or field or flower or. tree.
They loaded up like old Saint Nick
With bundles piled on high and thick: .. ~.~.-.
Bouquets Of flowers for children sick
And toys and candy for those at play
And hundred other things, folks say,
Who saw them on the street that day. ..
They went around from door to door,
Where bears had never been before;>
Climbed flights Of stairs and bumped their heads
To cheer up lads who were sick in beds;
Threw bouquets into windows high, - - .
And picked nice toys and let them fly,
And candy boxes and twigs Of green
Wherever boys and girls were seen.
But the jolliest sport Of the day began

Will make their score by honest play"
And Of all the batting that was ever done
In games that lost or in games that won,
In timing hits and in making base,
And in running home in the widest race,
This play that day Of the Roosevelt Bears
Beat baseball records everywheres.
They knocked that ball so hard and high
Above the clouds up in the sky
That while it tarried out Of sight
The Bears went round with all their might
And scored so fast for that silver cup
That Muddy Pete could scarce keep UP.
The Minneapolis journal., 1906-06-03

And we re short two men; good players they;
But they couldn't come to the game today"
"And the Bowery nine," another said,
"Ale bigger boys by half-a-head, ..,
And good at bat and quick to run;
They beat us last time two to one"
g" They don't play fair,'' said another lad,
"They count all balls both good and bad;
They claimed foul when made base
And when objected they slapped my face'

And win that silver just the same.'' -.

The Bears were coached in every rule
And they both caught on like boys at school,
The tBowery boys, in little while, .>
Came on the lot in baseball style.
They read off rules to the other nine
And helped lay out the diamond line.
In size, they sad among themselves,
These Roosevelt Bears are number twelves;
But the Bowery captain bet his hat
That neither Bear could pitch or bat.
"This game,''. he said, 'is as good as won;
Well beat those fellows ten to one"
A Bowery boy went to the bat
p While the other eight on some lumber sat
TO watch the play and wait their turn
And see the Bears their fingers burn.

And the Bears sat down in vacant lot
To count their cash and rest their feet
And eat some lunch with Muddy Pete
They returned to the organ grinder man
His music-box and collection can

They gave the monkey an extra dime
