Feathered Phlloaophy. ■This world Is filled with such a number of things. rm sure we should bo aa happy aa klngs. - It'a nice, even rather more, aay de- llahtful. to be an Idealist, when the ■ombre old world Is becoming more u d more materialistic. Even In things most prosaic, there Is the poetic If only *e care to see It or rather allow our- H lrrs to feel It—you know that Is the real test of poetry—16 feel It There la rood in all things, you know, "ev- frithlng l» pleasing and " wen, not „tn man la always vile—only those that destroy the feathered kingdom and the women that bedeck themaslves In the false plumage like the Jackdaw, gome one said, "Go to the ant, thou sluggard, consider his ways and"— well everyone knows the rest. That was excellent advice. If It were fol lowed throughout life, you would have a nice toilsome time and some day you would, perhaps, be a fine old bird like the baldheaded eagle, Mr. Rock-a-fel- low—that's If you follow the ways of the ants and be wise. But there Is an other road: Look at the happy bird family, soaring through the sunshine, ringing the while we wort happy In our homes and abroad. If there Is something we do not like- In one place, why the world la filled with such n number of things and Is so very large thst we simply go somewhere else. So don't vou think it better to go to the bird, thou pessimist, consider his ways snd be happy? Natural History. With the possible exception of the mule, the goose Is the most abused of all birds (no one will deny the mule Is a bird.) Humans are often compared to It—the goose. Evidently the goose Is considered silly by humans. The beat excuse for such Ignorance Ip that hu mans are human. But the goose—this Is a wise old bird. From Ita quills have flown the greateat books ever writ. To think of this bird's power It Is to shud der. for how truo Is that old aaw about Sporting Extra!

The biggest bunch of events In sportin' way yet pushed thro' this burg, has at last come to a close after four days' battle, In which every Inhabitant of Zoovllle that had any of the nimble cocoanuts up-on-the-slde took a turn at umpiring. Each of the hundred or more umps were successfully put out of business, so ths spectators and the dia mond dust gods are all happy. The game was won. but which aggregation snatched the laurels can't exactly be said, aa ths countin' machine used In tallying got a hot box about the end of the day. However, all seem to be In favor or this way of solving the prob lem—by dividing the number of hlu by the number of errors. This, In my opin ion. Is far superior to leaving such an Important thing as who won to the number of runs. The hits and errors show the real stuff In the goods, while a run Is often made by luck, as when Hippo, under the pretense of having something to say to the pitcher, put His Umps out of business. The bases, like Hippo, were at the time full, and the runners came home the shortest way. In three of the cases this way was over the body of His Umps. When His Umps finally opened his eyes, of course, he could not tell ex actly via what route the runner* wan dered home, although he had a strong feeling that they had passed very near the pitcher's box. So It Is certainty best to figure the score out aa has been stated, but unfortunately the official ■core-keeper, after reaching 893 errors In the first Inning, had to be taken from the field and have his arm amputated to give It a rest, as It positively re fused to stop marking, although It had the writers' cramp. The game was Anally brought to Its successful close by the bats, the flies snd the fowls Joining their forces with the rest of the birds and the beasts In terested and cleaning out all the public the pen and the sword. This Is also a rich old bird, for It Is never seen with out a yellow back bill. This Is also a very good old bird; It continually takes baths, and Is, therefore, cleanly, and cleanliness Is next to Godllnees. spirited cltlsens thst thought they could umpire. As the manner discussed failed to set tie on who's who, the score has been left to the sporting editor of The Zoo vlUe Chatter. Let It be known that It stood thusly: Birds 1 Beasts Won There can be no serious difficult!! brought about by this decision, for si though the Birds were 1, the Besets won. and then the Birds did 1, so all should be satisfied. Amusing Ineidsnt Really the only amusing Incident, rather the only Incident out of the or' dlnary, happened after the Idlat run had been made. Joe Lion, who was umpa pro tern, caused some little ex ettement and a great deal of amuse ment by taking a round of the bases, rating the players as he came to them. After this Incident, It was decided to change the sides Those thst had the Ins put up an awful kick, but Joe dtdn'l seem to mind. Ths other aids argued that their opponents had been given In side Information. Nothing could t» found to exactly cover the situation In the rule book, so, to restore peace. Joe ate up the bleachers.

Crlmmlns snd Gore, In the rousing musical comedy entitled "A Warm Match,” are next week’s attraction for the Casino. The show Is built on en tirely new lines, ths situations being positively ludicrous, causing no end of genuine amusement. It Is q load of harmless fun, a hysterical, screaming laugh from start to finish. The enthu siastic applause would be hard to ex cel. It Is what you often hear of, but seldom see, namely, a genuine comedy novelty. It Is full of convulsing whim slcslltle* and will cause a real sens* tlon of fun. Crlmmlns and Oore are premiers In their respective characters. Mis* Gore's tough girl stand* out as one of the best caricatures ever seen on the stage. Her remarkable change from Drydock Lis to a swell Boston Belle-In forty second* is unique. Quick changes are numerous on the stage.
