Enoch Quill sat on the seat Of a now
pg machine guiding a pair Of stotft
Farm horses and attending to the ma
chine at the same time. The summer
season had settled down from the
hckleness OF spring and taken on that
steady warmth which gives life to the
creatures OF earth. A thrush was pip
Ing In tree, robin was teaching it's
brood to fly. Over q blue sky sailed q
white sclcude casting what seemed to
Fnoch to be the shadow Of huge
bird. It passed, and the sun shone
out seemingly brighter and warmer
than before. The man refined in his
horses at a turn for rest, took of his
straw hat, wiped the sweat from his
brow and looked about him.
From the farmhouse beneath a
clump of trees on the hill came Mabel
Judd, Enochs employers daughter
She wore calico dress, a cheap apron
and sunbonnet The sun poured its
rays over her and was reflected bright
ly from tin bucket she carried in her
hand. Her approach brought pleased
look to the young farm hands face.
The girl came on over the field where
John Barleycorn stood In battle array,
emerging where Enoch had left whole
companies and platoops lying slaugh-
tered on the ground. Then she came
to where he sat on his iron seat, and
as she looked up at him and he saw
her pleasant oval face away down in
! the shadow cast by her sunbonnet he
gasped with the great JOY that was In
him.

bucket back to her. Il don't know but

"0h, that wasn't any trouble" she
said, slight red coming into her

This was not all the truth. She wish

would likely some day inherit one. He
gathered up the reins.
sT'm much obliged for the butter

1T wasn't any trouble" she replied
mechanically and, turning, with dis
appointed look on her face, went bach
over John Barleycorn's slain soldiers
and through his waving forces that
stood still defiant Long before she
reached the house she again heard the
monotonous rattle of the moving ma,
chine. Somehow the pleasure she had
taken In 1t had gone out Of 1t. Enoch
had said nothing to warrant this
change Of feeling. She had drawn an
Inference from his manner.
Enoeh finished cutting the wheat
that day aud received his wages. The
next he was gone without bidding Ma
bel goodby.
Ten years passed, and Mabel owned
the farm. She managed 1t herself
though she hired the work done for
her. One season there we're no hands
to be hired, and when the wheat
ripened she started out with the ma
chine to cut 1t herself. 1t was just
such morning as that on which she
had had her last talk with Enoch
Quill. A mamie looked like tramp
stopped In the road and leaned over
the fence near which she was driving.
"Want any hired help?' he asked
Mabel drew rein and looked at him
some time before replying. Her fea-
lures were shaded by her sunbonnet

These were few words. but they told

asked:

"well, come In here and take hold"
The man went to work, and the wo-
man went through the wheattield to

sun was getting hot and the hired
hand was getting thirsty, he saw her
coming with tin bucket.

mems Institute. He is a steady bat
and his work behind the sticks yester-
day was of a high order. Mr.. Cape is
also a clever player Of Association
football having at one time played
with the famous Corinthians.
Jacks. who took part in the cricket
game yesterday, is an officer aboard
the S. S. Scottish Monarch. The
steamer will probably be here again in
two months time, so Mr.. Jacks is
likely to be seen on the local cricket
field again.
st. Louis College is going to take up
cricket. and already preparations are
being made for the Introduction of the

legians have been invited by the IL.

A complaint was made by more than
one spectator at yesterdays practise
that the members of the different
teams did not wear distinguishing
colors. making it difficult to tell one
side from another in the heat of the
play. Colored sashes will be worn by
the players hereafter.

PUNAHOUS ASKED
TO DELAY GAME

The High School and Punahou mines
We're to have crossed bats yesterday
afternoon, but for some reason or other
the Punahous asked TO have the game
postponed until next Saturday.
1t is thought in school athletic cir
cles that the Punahous want little
more time in which to practise. While
the High School has lost every game
she has played, the players have shown
a considerable amount of Improvement
in each successive game.
Punahou I. refuses to play with the
Highs until the latter can get a rep
utation," and yesterdays game was to
have been between Punahou II. and
High School i.
1t is considered likely that Punahou
will beat. but not easily, for the Highs
have seen the error of their ways, in
not practising, and are getting down
to good, hard work.

THE NEW RELIGION

| T'other day as I was walking
| Down a fair suburban street,
| I heard voices loudly talking
Coarse was one and one was sweet
'"Tis some Army lass and laddfe
Laboring some soul to win
Helping upward one SO bad he
Seems to be the Devils kin
"Or perhaps a Holy Roller
On a PROSECUTING tour
Has secured some vagrant stroller
By his glib tongues magic lure
Thus I pondered, then drew nearer
In the street upon his knees,
Was man in raiment dearer
Than some wear who take their ease,
Dust and CRIME befouled his clothing,
Yet he knelt and worshipped there
A strange god, with words of loathing,
Anguish, anger and despair.
And he raised his hands to heaven,
Beat his breast and tore his hair
Yelled: Ills pretty near eleven,
Everybody else is there!''
Then winsome, sweet-voiced grille
Questioned: Dearest, won't it go?'
And he said in accents surly:
:" !-?-* ss-{x)-fxI-lNO!"
Then I wandered to another
Street a block or SO away
There upon his knees a brother
OF the faith began to pray
And again ! heard lady
Asking: Darling, won't it go?''
He replied in terms that made me
Blush: y! i-?-* *-!-NO!''
Pass me out a pair of pliers
And the other monkey-wrenCh;
Maybe l could fix the wires,
If l had vice and bench
There was silence for a minute
As he disap peared from view,
Then his voice said: Love, we re in it;
For I've dropped the battery screw
And the blooming tank is busted
Not drop of gasoline!

And it is a cheering sight
