HARB0R EAGLES HAVE A
GREAT TINE TUESDAY NIGHT

tlemen withdrew and allowed the fight
to proceed.
Judge George Reiland's bulldog had
been secured as the best equipped canine
TO cope with such formidable foe as
John d. Williams famous lighting bad
ger, which John had recently brought
back from Northern Wisconsin, where
the animal has been kept in retirement
for some time.
Mr. Payne was provided with shin
guards to protect him from an wattack
by the ferocious beast after he should
pull the badger from his cage When
the word was about to be given for the
referee to pun the rope the crowd got
60 a safe distance. not only to avoid
any attack by the badger but also to
be at safe distance from the referee
who stands six feet and six inches in
his stocking feet and is built propor-
tionately broad. This was unnecessary
however. as Mr. Payne, .notwithstand-
ing his size. is as gentle as7the badger
was after the dog got through with
him. and besides has a keen sense of
humour, which is as necessary a quail
hcation as bravery in a referee at
badger fight.

lance for him, was leaning gloomily
against the broad stone railing Of the
porch and gazing somberly at the
white peacocks that strutted in self
conscious magniicence about the
close-cut lawn. Agatha Sixth, who
should undoubtedly have been at his
side, considering that there was be-
tween them something in the nature
of an engagement understood, was
seated as far away from him as pos
sible in q low rocker at my wife's feet,
across the terrace from him.
As for Agatha First, she was knock
ing a golf ball around on the velvet
lawn and absolutely ignoring the
humble attentions of young Leslie
treer, the rectorS son, WHOM we hao
at length succeeded in foisting upon
her as cavalier.
I thought the party was too dull for

to the plan from them and a more en-
thusiastic one from Arch, who had
begun to realize in spite of his anxi-
cites that cricket was cricket after
all, something occurred which changed
the formation of our party most un-
expectedly.
That something was a wire for Ter
