Direct from heaven above,
And so indeed she seemed to him,
For he was much in love.
He said she was an angel,
With eyes OF heavenly blue,
And on bis bendcd knee he swore
To evermore be true.
He said she was an angel
Too chaste for mortal ken.
Too fair, too good too pure for earth,

Baseball at the league grounds this
afternoon will be the chief sporting
event of the day, when the Keios and
Rams, and Santa Claras and Puns line
up for battle. All four teams are in
good condition for the games which
promise to be very closely contested.
Who will umpire is not known at pres

the best man in the Territory, can be
persuaded to handle the indicator for
the games this afternoon. Jones and
Reuter- will be the battery for the
Kams, Hampton and Lyman for the
Puns, Kilburn and Shafer for the San
ia Claras, while the Keios will have
their regulars in the same positions.
The teams have been practicing very

and it is to be hoped that the grounds
will be crowded with the lovers of the
great national game. Berger aiNl his
