The Hog

The hog or pig, whatever you want
to call ia hog makes a pig Of him
self just like a pig makes a hog Of
himself.
Who made Chicago famous? The
hog!
In Chicago they find use for every
ing on a pig, even the sqUeal-that's
made into phOnOgraph records.
What is this one weeping for?
The poor hog is fretting because
he can't make a pig of himself by
lying down in that pint can of sour
miIk-like the hog that gets on a
street car and wants to lie down on
a seat, or the one who sits down and
gives his suit case a seat beside him
while you dangle like a wet sock on a
strap.
Hogs are much more valuable dead
than alive.

Boston.-Boston is a large city en-
tirely surrounded by Harvard accent
It's streets are very narrow, but its
GAS" are very broad. Traffic is fire.
quently clogged by a broad "a" get
ting between the buildings.
One of the principle industries of
Boston is the sale of charts and COM
passes to keep strangers from losing
themselves in the crooked streets.
The only person ever known to find
his way about was Sam Lloyd, the
puzzle king - and Sam was always
lucky anyway.
Boston was the scene Of the bat
tie of Bunker Hill, which had nothing
to do with golf.
When the young Bostonan of either
sex is still at an exceedingly tender
age it's parents put spectacles on it
and it begins to study to get into
Harvard. Boston is the only city in
the world where pretty girls insist on
marring Their beauty by wearing tor
toise shell eyeglasses.

SOUTH SIDE
EDEN A. C. PICK-UPS

The Pioneer infeld dug up a repu.
tation at bat on Saturday at the ex-
pense of an Invalid.
Replete with thrilling attacks and
counter attacks, il was no game for a
fan with a weak heart.
A unanimous tribute. by the fans
to Stoney Augusts ability behind the
plate was noticeable beneath a cloak
of silence. He changed positions with
Bob Patterson at the time of the first
crisis.
Grant. who is leading the club in
batting was out OF the same with a
sprained ankle.
The team went to Odessa on Tues
day for two games, tieing one and los.
ing the other. Manager August said
after the morning game, which Win
ters pitched that Winters was still
worth two or three of the amateur
pitchers in town.
In three Of the four league games
up to date the team has collected
eight six and twelve runs a total of
twenty-six of Wise. Hogan, McKin-
ney and Donovan respectively.
a couple OF the boys looked Crouch
over on Tuesday and returned a YER
dict OF soft" Had Ennis and Crouch
switched places Crouch wouldn't have
had a look in. Crouch was undoubted.
lv Master Of the game but a aiorffv
OF his strikes were never swung at.
The excursion which leaves the
wharf 10 the west OF South Market
street bridge for Augustine Beach on
June ~. from recent developments. is
being awaited with considerable I'M

Jimmy Sharpe and Harry Pearce. ap-

pitched steady game. While the To-
Gals got eight hits off his delivery,
