"Mr. Stevenson" says the captain in
relating the incident. "cheered every
body up by telling funny stories that
were better, coming offhand from his
lips, than most literary men coulI
write if they worked over them for
weeks. He knew. too, that it was only
a question of short time before he
would die of consumption and that he
could never again go home for more
than a brief visit. 1t was simply won

other way just as well.
Don't forget that basket of fruit OF

will last good deal longer.
Don't try to find the price marks on
the gifts you receive. If the gifts are
worth having they mean something
above dollars and cents.

minutes. the Columbia league came out
victors by score of to l.
Kisler, who pitched for the Column
bia league, allowed only two hits dur
ing the nine innings. while the leaguers
pounded Blissmer for six.
Though Blissmer was hit hard in in

runs, his support was of the best which
enabled him to hold the leaguers down
to two runs.

that they nearly won the game yester-
day and If it had not been for a little
matter of twenty-six scores they would
have come from the field as glorious

score stands as the high score Of the
season among players who are no long

skeedaddle after the ball in regular

"Hoopy' to redeem himself il Geib
failed to hang on to the sphere? or,
vice versa, what chance would Geib
have? 1t was very apparent that the

grave question as to the H. A. A No. 2.
