The Mother Hubbard Game

Through oversight last week we failed to make any mention whateyero of the Mother Hubbard Second nine game of ball played on Sept. 9th, and as a result the editor has been browsing upon weeds and grass along the bayou bottom while nineirate females(2 with damage suits in their hands and blood in their eyes. have been camping on our trail. They have finally agreed to let us go unharmed provided we publish the following report of the game, written by a chief fan, which we take pleasure in doing:
 The cream of Carlisle society screamed itself to an alto scale on Friday, Sept. 6th,' when the Mother Hubbards handed lemon pies to the picked second nine
 The game started off with a Cherokee strip" rush, two three baggers, a double-down and outer, three high C's, demi semi quaver and a scarf drill marked the first outing. The pitching, tossing, throwing = any way to get it there, of Eliza beth, was declared by a Chicago Specialist, who was hid behind the school house, to be strictly high class Vaudeville. The fan hing of Eliza, whose most grace ful hit was when the bat hit the ground, the tobogganing of Joanna, the steeple-chases of Martha Ann and Mollie May were incidents that will mark new era in sport The gay CO quettish Jessie Myra toying with the elucive sphere in the dog fennel was worth the fine of admission to the bald headed TOW.
 About the middle of the 4th outing loud explosive noise tore it's way through the atmos- phere, women screamed. strong men wept. Cassie Mays dress, graceful empire with a Niagra fall of lace was rent from break fast to dinner. About this juno ture the R. | representive hit a ball; it was last seen near M. B. Moore's rice farm and three men and a boy are looking for it now. If it is found it will be sent to Jeff Davis. Only one accident occurred when Elsie had a ball de posted in her slats, but with Betsy Jane's help she made 9 sideGnes before and after taking. Of course the umps, rendered some very nasty decisions, especially the lady with the Span ish lace on her chest. Otherwise she was a very decent young lady. Mephistopheles who was from Hendryx, lost his para chute, so he will not be down any more. The manager of the petticoat nine wore a red skiddoo kind hearted kimono and a. cheerful smile and made good with the grand stand.
