AT THE SEASONS END.

AT THE SEASONS END.
Soon there comes a deadly quiet
Ger the diamond dull and bare,
Where the shoots of Tiny Goodbred
Strike the mitt Of Bischoff there,
Soon the bawl of aged umpires
Through the park is heard no more
Passes, too, the Get 'em ice cold"
With the wild bugs frantic roar.
Soon the stand is quite deserted,
Dark and drear against the blue.
Soon the sport page changes gossip
Where the box score holds review.
Soon we cease to hear of Red Smith
Damaged in his daily smash,
With an arm or finger broken
In a most outlandish crash.
CAROLS fame is slowly dying;
Fading is the curve of Browne.
None will rise to cheer Pug Griffin
As he pulls a high one down.
And when Lewis greets the apple
With a poke below the eye,
Who will see the winning wallOp?
Who will rend the ringing cry?
Now we see the ticket seller
Packing up the brown vaIise.
Summer failures ask Cy Barger
For a straight outright release.
And Julio, the well-fed copper,
Waddles with heart-broken swing,
As he sees the dusky keeper
Lock and bar the gates till spring.

Callahan Shows Well.

The victory in the long watery trudge
didn't go to X. Waddell without a
brave protest from the attenuated legs
and arms Of Callahan. When Doc
Hottum fired the starters pistol Gala
han was the first to leap off the bow
of the steamer Princess into the wa
ter. Propelling himself with an over
hand sidestroke, he maintained this
lead for so minutes. After this he once
regained the lead from X. Waddell,
and was able to keep within 20 yards
of Waddell until off the old Hopefield
point. Here Waddell abandoned his
policy Of conservation and gave his
stroke all the gas 1t could absorb.
This was quite a little and Kemper
forged ahead like a seal late for din
ner.
Stowell, Jones, Jefferson, Warner
and Hanna must be listed among the
