NOTES OF THE GAME.

Harvey and Handy were the only two
Car Department regulars who played up
to their standard, and 1t was mainly
through their efforts that tie was
sverted.
Handy on two occasions made sensa-
tional catches of line drives and both
plays nipped promising Southland rally
In the bud.
A peculiar feature of the game was
that Hughes, first baseman for the Rail-
readers. had only two put-outs to his
credit and both of these came to him In
the eighth.
Catcher Dechard, after having his
broken finger set in splints. appeared on
the field and Immediately was hailed as
hero by all the small boys.
In the fourth. Ebert shot over swift
one and the ball glanced Off Carr's
shoulder, struck Taylor in the neck and
finished its journey against Umpire Han
diboe's protector. Three birds with one
throw. Going some.
In the first two innings. Hanvey was
credited with six strike-outs. while Ebert
registered four. making total Of ten
for the two sessions.

HUMOROUS QU|PS.
The Simple Maiden.

There was once a simple maiden. and her
simple name was Dottie.
She had simple twinkle in her eyes.
There was a simple dimple in her simple
chin that naughty
Little maids who had no dimples saw
with signs.
The things she said were simple
And the things she did were simple,
A very simple grille girl was she,
But the simplest maid that ever
Simply sighed may still be clever
In her beautiful m-pli-ci-tee.
There came gallant hero with a manner
that was splendid.
The other girls regarded him with awe.
They sought him, but none caught him,
and their hoping soon was ended,
For Dottie was the only girl he saw.
He 1irted with coy Dottie,
And he boosted that sweet Dottie
Was ready to accept him any day,
But the simplest maid that ever
Simply sighed may still be clever
In a simple, unexpected way.
The hero soon grew weary of the maiden
and her signing,
On other ladies he bestowed his smiles,
But naughty little Dottie did no vain or
foolish crying.
She had letters from him stacked in
handy piles.
To Dotte he had written
Things he never should have written,
And she made him pay her we'll to set him
free.
Oh, the simplest maid that ever
Simply sighed may still be clever
In her beautiful sim-p li-ci-tee.

The Passing Of an Old Erie

The Passing Of an Old Friend.
The burglars were at work on the
burglar proof safe.
whats holdin' you back, Jem?'
growled the second one anXiously.
"Why, dey've put some kind O drill
proof stuff over de door," replied the
first one "an l can't get me tools troo
it."
The light Of dawn was outlined by
the window. A rumble of carts came
from the cobbled roadway.

AS the batfled miscreants hastily
gathered together their jimmies and
drills and started for the door a flood
of light came through the window.
Then as they looked back at the
safe each burglar smothered a sulphur
Gus oath.
The mysterious thing that had detied
the steel drills was the outlawed roller
towel, vintage of 1905, which some
body had taken down and carelessly
thrown across the safe. -Cleveland

THE WISE FARMER.

; n T>AHERE WAS a man in our town
And he wondrous wise,
He knew that if he wanted crops
- He'd have to fertize.
It's nitrogen that makes things green,
Said this man of active brain;
And potash makes the good strong straw
And phosphate pumps the grain
But its clearly wrong waste plant food
On a wet and soggy field
I'll surely have to put in drains
If I'd increase the yield
And after have drained the land
must plow it deep all
And then I'll not succeed
Unless it will grow clover.
Now acid soils will produce
clover sod that's prime;
So if / have a soil,
I'll have to put on lime.
And after doing all these things
To make more sure,
I'll try my very best to keep
From wasting the manure.
SO I'll drain, and lime, and cultivate,
With all that implies
And when I've done that thoroughly
I'll manure and fertize.
