any one who has enjoyed the reading

Fancy Sketch by the Only Fan.

A parody on a base ball game was
pulled off at the Agency near Nor
ton last Sunday afternoon and was
witnessed by a number of the boys
who would like to see the real old
article of ball once in while, at
least. If the boys from Dawson who
played against the Indian team from
the agency ever could play ball,
there was certainly no indication of
the same evident in the manner of
ball they put up in this game. The
umpiring was also of the yellow
order, and we actually thought
Dutch Francois could have done
better. The game seemed to be on
the 'lutefsk" order all the way
through. The only real royal base
