What's the matter with the great
national game? Time has been when at
| O'Clock Saturday you could hardly see
dozen men who were not in base ball
suits, and the wonder was where any
spectators were to come from. Now last
| Saturday for instance there wasn't a
game of any magnitude, great or small,
in the vicinity. OF course every body
plays BY proxy, in the good American
way, through the sporting page OF the
daily papers, but as for real base ball,
there doesn't seem to be any.
About five O'Clock Thursday morning
a small shoulder was discovered in the
roof OF the mill of j. A Kenuey & Co.,
beside the chimney. II it had been
where it could have been reached with
pals of water, il could have been quick
| ly disposed of in that way, but as it was,
the hose company in that district got
out their hose and quickly had it out,
without a general alarm being given.
Damage slight. Its origin is not known,
but if it had started few hours earlier
there would have been longer story to
IL.
In years past about four nights at two
different periods have seen the flight Of
| bro " n. tail moth millers come and 60,
| but this year il was different. A few
days after the first snow storm OF them
had mostly gone, the second flight be-
gan, and lasted continuously for about
week. Every night they swarmed around
l., he rn
neighboring buildings were white with
them. Some of the mornings when they
were thickest hose was put on and they
were washed down and drowned out. II
is evident that the pest is increasing rap
idly from year 10 year.
