 Chicago scored two runs in the second inning. Chance singled. Steinfeldt was hit by pitched ball. both players moving up a base on Tinkers single. and both scoring on a wild throw to the plate by Abstein.
 The winning runs were scored In the ninth after Schulte had famed. Chance singled to center and went to third on Stelnfeldt's hit to right. Hoffman walked, filling the bases. Tinker hit to Miller, who fumbled the ball, Chance scoring and Tinker being safe at first Archer sin gled, scoring Steinfeldt Hoffman was caught at the plate on Browns tap to Byrne and Zimmerman flied to Leach.
 Pittsburg tied the score in the fourth inning. Wagner was hit by pitches ball and went to second when Miller se- cured a pass. Both runners moved up base on Abstein's sacrifice and scored when Wilson singled to center.

Not breath of air famed the trees.
 The heat from the sand of the heart oi the desert came up scorching and blister ing whatever it encountered.
 A solitary crow Tapped noiselessly over- head.
 The Baron and the Turtle sat on op- posite sides of the road. What's the use?' one was heard to remark.
 None at all," returned the other.
 But l presume we had better try it a little while," the first rejoned.
 The two then marshalled their forces struck a few desultory and half-hearted blows on the sleeves of their opponents and settled down again to rest.
 And thus it continued for half an after noon.
 The Turtle got the better of the argu- ment yesterday. Dickson had one bad in ming. It was the fourth. He walked Dau- bert and Daubert stole. Shields singled to Larsen, and Daubert was held on third. Cranston then cut one loose between third and short and Daubert walked home. Neighbors, for whom Yancey was playing against rightfield fence, hit gently what under the circums tances looked good for bag. But the ball on touching the ground, rolled instead of bouncing, and rolled nearly to the fence Shields and CTanston scored.
 In the sixth Ellam beat out a beautifully placed bunt, and went to second when Molesworth was walked. Yancey prompt ly responded with a bingle and Ellam scored.
 In the seventh, Kane, first up, was walked. Larsen put him down to second. Dickson hit sharply to center, and Kane scored when Neighbors threw the ball against the grandstand-
 The game was listless throughout. There was no interest displayed by either team There was a total lack of ginger. On account of the rain the crowd was slim The roofing, however, was half hearted and in rare spots.
 There was no spectacular play save q marvellous backward running one-handed catch by Henline of a drive to the fence by Cranston in the second.

They are superior by right of gentle

instinct to serve and to bless. Men

days for the fairer aspects of exist

more than place their hopes of nobler,
holier things in the white hands OF
some woman whose heart would cher

for themselves. This, then, was and is
the real nature of chivalry, despite en-
throned ladies and guarded pages and
madriSals and sonnets and the splen-
dor falling on castle walls and all the
rest of it!-this recognition Of heaven
seen in the sweet face of a beloved
woman; this need to be prayed for and
forgiven; this remembrance of some
dlviner world made real by the soul
OF fair lady-fair whether in kings
courts or tending sheep by the mead.
