THEIR MOTHER TONGUE.
As 1t Wa Spoken by the EngIishman

AS 1t Was Spoken by the EnsIishman
and the American.
An American in London, living in a
private hotel, inquired of an English
acquaintance how it was that every
n in the house Immediately recog-
nized his nationality. In "Vagabond
Journeys Mr.. Percival Pollard records
the conversation.
The Englishman looked at our Amer
fcan friend for a moment and then
ventured this definite explanations:
ooh, of course. don't you see, they
would know you, you see. like a shot.
l mean to say, you see, that it's quite
odds on, don't you see. that you are,
that you are, you see! Eh?"
The American chewed on this a little
and then remarked. apropos Of moth
ing:
"Say, amt it a fine thing we speak
the same language? Yes, sir! That's
what keeps the two countries so close
together-the language. Still, as l was
saying, 1 can't make up my mind
whether it's my feet or my language.
I'd like to have a real heart to heart

tie details of the language that binds

to talk to you about when you have
time some day. That's the exact defini-
ton Of the week end. I've noticed
that when your lawyer or stockbroker.

the week end it means that he's leav-

Saved by Revenue Gutter.
I'm about half an hour we saw a
schooner coming to us, which proved
to be the United States revenue cutter
Veto, Captain Dyer, who rendered US
every assistance in his power. He ran
the cutter close to the burning steam
er, then in a sheet of flames, and sue
ceeded in taking out forty passengers,
who must have persisted had not the
cutter come to our assistance.
1--WE succeeded with much difficulty
in reaching the isle of Haul, in Penob-
scot bay, where the people treated us
with great kindness"
One of the passengers. Hinson Pat
ten by name, gives an account of the
affair, which explains the conduct of
Captain Reed in taking the one re-
naming boat. He says: Captain Reed
took charge of the stern boat, with
two men. and kept her off the steam
boat, which was a very fortunate cir
cumstance, as it was the means Of
saving from forty to fifty persons.
1T is impossible to describe the APP
palltng spectacle which the whole
scene presented-the boat wrapped in
flames, with nearly 100 souls on board,
without any hope Of relief, rending
the air with their shrieks for help: the
caravan Of wild beasts on deck, ready
to tear to pieces all that might escape
from the flames. The amount Of mon
ey and property lost by this disaster
cannot be less than $125, O00."-Boston

OF the Baseball Situation in
tlGGity League for the
Coming Week.

The SCHEDULE for the city base;
BAH league as announced in another
column OF this issue, provides
plenty OF good baseball Tor the, fans
ali the week. as the teams to play
are ali evenly matched and good
games should result.
The games scheduled for this
evening ana tomorrow evening be-
tween the Con Building and sehoIas-
tic teams should be warmly contest
ed, as these two teams are about
ON par. but in a two-game game
series the scholastics has the best
of the argument as the Coz Build
ing boys have only one pitcher. An
effort Is being made by the Con
Building team to secure the service
of Carl Cuppett to all IN as an ev-
ira pitcher. Siegrist and Mcmillan
will work for the scholastics.
The game Thursday evening and
the first game Sunday afternoon be-
tween the BOWERS and Elks Will be
good games as the Bowlers have
been playing good ball lately and
will make it interesting for Smiths
bunch OF little dears.
The biglgame Of the week win be
tho second game Sunday afternoon,
when Smiths All Stars viii do bat
tie with the All Star Bowler team,
which Manager Dresbach played at
Redwood on July 4 and 6. The

team was playing FLEETWOOD the lo-
cal all star team was playing Union

posed of the bestI players in the city
