NOTES OF THE GAME.

Turkey trot tactics of Dan Moeller were
/ effective in gaining base on balls in the
third round.
Dan. purely unappreciative of a gift
feloniously absconded second a minute
later.
Comedian Schaefer contributed to the
comedy Of fielding errors that followed by
getting a hit and steal, advancing
Moeller to third. Here was good
chance. but. alas. Milan went out on a
SALESMAN to first sacker play. Oh!
The thin red line" did well under the
circumstances
John Henry's Amherst tactics won him
base on balls in the fifth.
According to iona da Sous Mcbride
had too much olive oil on his glove when
he attempted to get Williams grass cut
ter in the sixth session.
In the play between bases when John
ston was caught therein, the Browns
left gardener was soundly smacked with
the ball when he ran out of line by a
swift pass from Laporte.
Agnew's guinea-hen toddle after Schaef-
er's fowl fly back was of noneffect, as
the ball tIickeled drought his padded
fingers and the crowd cackled.
Walsh is a "footy" lad. but Bob
same as he has kept his young offspring
in the cradle and tethered to apron
strings
Inglorious to score on a passed ball.
but Mcbride proved he was not above it
The Browns. chamelion-like. have
changed their color TO light gray and
black.
Milan ingloriously sacrificed himself
after singing splendidly to Shotten's field
by ambitiously hurrying to second
shotten, the st. Louis speed boy,
cracked the first half pitched by Bob
Groom for a grounder to Schaefer and
died on a close decision.
Manager stovall placed himself on the
bench and Bunny" Brief covered his
corner. He made great try for
Johnston caught Moeller's long fly in
the first and made 1t appear spectacular
by snagging II with one hand when it
was not necessary.
Milan, made the first hit of the game
when he crashed down the first base
line in the opening inning.
In the second Pratt opened the inning
with a sharp single to center, but was
thrown out stealing, Henry making a
perfect peg.
In the Nationals second Jimmie Austin
made a flying dive to interrupt Laporte' s
single but did not succeed. Brief was
successful in his attempt to field
williams hard hit grounder close to the
bag.
John Henry's true pegging cut down
Brownies third, Walsh being the victim.
Moeller refused to bite a second time
on Hamilton's slow one, and as a result
received a free ticket to first He pro-
ceeded to steal second.
Germany did the Billy Bounc stunt
when he went up into the air for Aus
tins bounder He bounced just high
enough to reach it
The crowd raised a great howl when
Hildebrand called Williams out at first
in the fourth round.
During the first five innings the Ma
tionals made only two hits on Hamilton,
Milan and Laporte taking the horors.
Agnew got the merry ha ha when he
allowed Schaefer's fly to fall safe The
Dutchman was called out on strikes on

Abelard the Teacher.

Canon Fulbert was proud of her at
talnments, and pTOuder still when she
expressed a wish TO study the philos-
ophy of the great Abelard, then In the
height of his fame, and chief of the
school of Paris. the nucleus Of what is
known to-day as the great Sorbonne.
Abelard was 81, Helolse a little more
than half that age, perhaps. and one
does not even need to recall the fact
that the eleventh century was an era
Of RIGHTEOUSNESS to understand how
Abelard, I'm his intimate association
with his beautiful pupil stood in dan
ger Of falling from his pinnacle of re
ligious power.
The Canon Fulbert, believing i'm the
prudence and wisdom Of his niece tas
men believe only and always in their
own)S and having faith in the sincerity
Of Abeiard's ideals, permitted the phi
losopher to become a member of his
household i'm order to give Heloise the
full benefit Of his instruction.
Not only was Abelard given the priv
ilege Of teaching the beautiful girl, bur
he was authorized to chastise her if
she became indifferent or negligent. In
his letter to a friend long afterward
Abelard wrote.
we were under one roof and We be
came one heart Under the pTeteXt Of
study we gave ourselves utterly to love.
We opened our books, but there We're
more kisses than explanations, and our
eyes sought each other rather than the
texts.
Yet. sometimes. to still further de-
ceiVe the uncle. / Chastised HelOiSe as
a bad pupil, but the blows were those
of love, not Of anger As I grew more
and more drunken with passion, | cared
less and less for my school and my
studies.
