THE BURNING QUESTION.

1t was a summers evening
Old Caspar's work was done,
And he, down at the home brew joint,
Had quaffed the daily bun;
A stranger entered hurriedly
And bade them all arise.
Have We not heard the awful news7"
He said with deep surprise.
Then up arose Old Caspar
And staggered to the door,
"They turned Wood down" he said,
And that makes me full sore:
But tell me, sir" he pleaded,
Oh, tell me now, | pray;
do you, perchance, inform us
Babe did not get one today? ?"

BAsEBALL's NEW CATCH-PHRASE
BasebalPs vocabulary has received few
accredited additions in the last few years,
though the game has been featured in
slang by experts. Ball players-espe-
eiaIly those in the major leagues-are
quick to adopt trite phrases, but they
do not speak by the book.
a few years ago a manager, discussing
a lame excuse made by a pitcher for los
ing a game, described the explanation as
an "alibi." 4 baseball scribe picked up
this expression, and it soon became a
word to cover spoken or implied apollo
gies for failure.
For instance, an infielder who fumbles
ball and then picks up an imaginary
pebble, "alibies" himself for the error
The slang expression bean" was de-
rived from descriptions Of pitchers
throwing the ball at the heads of bats
men. This was originally described as a
bean ball." and from that the word
bean" became Synonymous with head"
