and many marveled at his wonderful pitching. Moreover he was exceeding lucky and the House of Smith did score but one run throughout the whole six innings thereof. Now in the meantime there was much betting and it was exceeding heavy 3 for with coin the dental student is blest, which being interpreted, means cursed. Now when the seventh inning was come there was a great change. For behold, the Tribe of junkermann did find the benders of Lush. Howbeit Lush did not fear, but steadied. and the enemy did score but twice. But the House of Smith fell before the mighty power of jones as the grass falleth before the sickle. Likewise in the eighth inning the Tribe of Junker- man did add another run to their number. And Jones because he had done right i11 the sight of his team was given much salve. even offerings of gold and silver, while the House of Smith again fell before his mighty power. And when the close of the eighth inning was come, the score was against the House of Smith, even as five to one. And the majority of four runs for the Tribe of junkerman waxed exceeding large in the eyes of the multitude. and the Boasters' did sing and shout for joy, for unto them victory seemed assured. But Dreihs knew his men, that their hearts waxed with the strife. And he called them together, Let us counsel one with another: and they spake strong saying, II4 unto each other words Of encouragement, whereupon their blood was stirred and they resolved each one unto himself to face the enemy with renewed vigor. For it is written: Even the great must some day fall. Selah. And it was so. For Lush did retire the enemy as one man, and the House of Smith fell upon the curves of Jones like a mighty whirlwind. Triples followed homers and doubles followed triples, while the singles were as numerous as the fowls in the air. And before one man was out, five mighty warriors had crossed the plate and the victory won to the House of Smith. And there was a great noise like unto the stamping of the hoofs of many horses, or the rushing of chariots, or the rumbling of wheelsg for the House of Smith did rejoice greatly, and the noises grew louder and louder till they were like unto a mighty thunder, and the rushing of many waters. And the Tribe of Junkerman fled in despair and their followers were kindled with wrath and were scattered abroad as sheep having no shepherd. And Jones when he saw what was done, rent his gar- ments, and he was sore ashamed as were all they that played with him. And thus the sayings of the Tribe of junkerman were proven to be like unto sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. The mighty had fallen, and great was the fall thereof. Selah. G. S. B.

A Victory for the House of Smith. ND it came to pass, in the eighteenth year of tl1e reign of King Smith the First, that certain men of the Tribe of Junkerman did rise up and proclaim themselves champions of tl1e base ball world. And they spoke of one accord, saying, Challenge them, for their boastings are vain and their prophets false. And straightway the challenge was sent, and it was accepted, and great excitement prevailed through- And their prophets did prophesy saying, None shall conquer us, no, not 0116. Now these vain boasts and vaunts did spread abroad throughout all that land, and into the regions thereabout, even beyond the Ohio. And when King Smith heard of these sayings, he was provoked to wrath and did straightway send for Eddie, whose surname is Dreihs and who was a captain in the House of Smith. Now the King and Ilreihs did counsel to- gether, whereupon Dreihs was given full power to act. And when the morning was come. he called his men together, for they also had heard of these boastings, And when they were come to- gether, Dreihs did speak unto them, saying, Behold, thou hast heard of these boasts ofthe Tribe of junkerman: how shall we an- swer them ? s ., ,. ., W out all the land.

Now it came to pass, when the time of meeting was come, which was in the fourth month and the tenth day of the month, that great multi- tudes gathered together to behold 447' ,, the mighty struggle.
