Fwo weeks from to-day the baseball season will open at the 'cricket field, with C.L.C's and Vietorias on the field. As yet neither of the teams is doing much practising. No person seems to know anything about the boys from the engine works. All the men on the team are practically sirangers to this district. As new men will figure on the C.L. ('s and the Athletics, this year, it is said that the Victorias will also have four new periormers The Tecumsehs, who this year make have a kaifle on May 24th. Several | say they have the lucky numbers. As the colors of the club are a blend of blue and pale blue, it may be neces- sary to make a change in them in or- der to get a suitable baseball wuni- form. . The Regiopolis Baseball Club, though not playing in a league, will "spread themselves," as usual, this season. 1his week they gave the Te cumsehs 8 game, and they are arrang- ing for a "go" with a Watertown team in that northern New York city on July 4th, io Alas, there has been practically nothing done in the Merchantile and Sunday School Leagues regarding baseball, though a meeting of the lat- 'ser's executive was called for last Thursday evening, and had to be post- poned for lack of a quorum.

Me- Vickar, of Rhode Island, harbored a large soul in a body to match. He was a bachelor, whose sister kept house for him. On one oceasion he telephoned to his tailor that he wished to have a { pair of troysers presred, and the tai- jor sent a boy to his residence to get i them. | The Bishop's sister admitted the messenger and called upstairs:-- | "Willie, the boy has come for your trousers!"

Not only the dead mothers are accorded honors, but the living ones have felt the wealth of love and es teem that has too often been conceal | ed by sealed lips. For this outpouring of attention the world and . the mothers are indebted to Miss Anna M. Jarvis, Philadelphia, who in founding the custom adopted this characteristio motto : "To honor the best mother ever lived--your own." When five years ago, Miss Jarvis ventured to suggest that ome day ol the year be dedieated to the: recogui- tion of what the world owes to mother love, the utmost she hoped for was that it would in time become a national event; yet so rapidly did the idea spread, so universal has become the recognition of the beauty of the sentiments it would inspire, that the observance of the day promises soon to become international. the that .
