Dr. Jamieson is a good goal-keeper, and no ball can get through on the side he stands on. Only one ball came down to his end and that wens through on the other side. Billy Caldwell, the Shanghai goal- keeper, seved the Other fellows a bad defeat by his skillful defence of the flags. Captain Ramage will be sure to! call it a tie. but we’ll take the umo' pires decision, whose business it is to watch. 5 The time-keepers were Gordan and Keeler. the two town Jewellers.! There wasn’t much variation. 9 Norman McIntyre and Pete Gag-l non were trainers and rubbers. Dr. Holt and Allie McIntyre were! the umpires and gave square de-: cisions. : Any one that kicks because he’s; defeated in a game like that ought tc play marbles with the school girls ' or dress dolls for a two-year-old baby. The goal-keepers changed ends, the hall was laced off and the last half was entered. It was easily seen that. the b‘hangliais were pretty Well tuckered, while the Roosrers were just. getting down to good playing. The other lellows knew the game was all up With them, and the only thing now to do “as to act on the defensive and keep down the score, and if possible leave ita tie. That wouldn’t suit us, and soon we made anather goal. 'l‘his was aiSputed by the field captain, but the umpire ruled, and when time was up the score Was unchanged. One fellow called it crucified lu- crosae, but. he dndu’t understand the game very well. Tim Moran is a good strong player, but a. sledge would suit him better than a lacrosse stick. Two to one with the Chronicle on top. Ian’s it. great. T'bo some day the Juniors fleeced the Hunovor Juniors by a. score of 5â€"0 on Hnnovor grounds. The ball was faced and off again. It went a littie wild and Jake .lxress got hold of it about fifty yards behind the Review flags. “this was the first chance he had and, bound to some he started out on a hundred and fifty yard dash yelling like a Uomauchee ludian. he was hearing down straight on Dr. Jamneson, M. P. P., the Uhronicle goal-keeper, but his wmd gave out and Ed. McUlock- 11h spelled hun out and scored the only one got by the Review bhaug- hate. it was their goal and we didn’t kick about it. A minute or two more and the whistle blew for halt time. The umpire is the man who teiis when a score is made. A little skirmish took place behind the Review flags and the ball was soon kicked out. Twenty-two pair of feet were tramping on it. and liill Uonuor would have been there too but he wasa little slow. Dan Mc- Donald stood in front of the flags just ready Ior any kind of execution when Connor got the ball and with a graceful pass put it into Dan’s stick, and the trick was done before you could say ” Peter Watson." it was one for us. Immediately the whistle blew the ball fairly flew down on the Review flags, which, during the whole game in tact, were dangerously assailed by the Chronicle Roosters. Ascore was claimed, but the umpire decided the shOt was a little high, and our boys were too gentlem’anly to make any dispute against the decision. There wasn’t a murmur from our Side of the field against the decisions of the umpires or the mandates of the referee. Barrister Davidson was referee, and did very well, Of course he al- lowed the field captain on the other side a little too much liberty with his feet. but we’re not going to kick about it. We got the game and that’s all we want. Whitaker Runage Keys The H. “VIEW.

CH ROXICLE . a visitor at a Scotch yacht club on the Clyde during a regatta week, and one night he was called on for a story. Knowing, he says, from books and ex- perience. the density of Scotchmen to American jokes, he told the broadest. most pointed story he could think of. It was the old chestnut of the inebri- ated Irishman, who met a policeman and asked him the time. “Three o'clock,” said the policeman. “Oi didn't hear," said the Irishman. “Three o’clock!" the hobby yelled. “ 'Shure, Oi didn’t hear that, either.” The policeman then hit him three whacks on .the head with his club. "Did you hear tihat?" he asked. “Shure,” said Pat, "Oi heard that. and Oi do be fur thinkin' it’s domn glad Oi am that Oi didn’t mate ye at twilve." There was not a ripple of apprecia- tion on the rows of Scotch faces be- fore him, said Mr. Inglis. They, one all, «were blank. and slotvly‘ each Bootohman drained his whitey to hide “Suddenly,” said Mr. Inglis, "I saw an old Scotchman in the for corner break into a smile. Slowly he removed his pipe from his mouth and blew out n cloud of smoke. 'Hoot. mon,’ he said, 'but ye canna. blame the police- man. for a’ that. It do be 9. wee bit hard to be asked the came question three times! Should either party fail to comply with these requirements, complaint must be made to a magistrate, who investigates the charges and renders a decision. The offended servant or the offended mistress cannot settle the dif- ficuloty by parting company. No mat- ter how tired of the bargain mistress or maid may become, they cannot termin- ate it until the time agreed upon, ex- cept by permission of the magistrate. If a servant leaves without the know- ledge of her mistress, she is subject to arrest, fine «and imprisonment. On the other hand, the servant’s wages are a first lien upon the property of the mas- ter or mistress. which illustrates what he calls “the Scotch result." He told it to the Aidine Association the other night, together with several stories of his experiences in France, when he was an art student .in Paris. Mr. Inglis was wILLIAM INGLIS has a story m“'l‘hat is what I call the Scotch re- sult." Mr. Inglis concluded. The municipalities see that the law is strictly enforced with regard to ser- vants, and themselves abide by it in the1r character of emplloyers of labor. bed, good and wholesome food, and prompt and regular payment of wages. In return, she must perform her duties faithfully, and 'be strictly honest, obe- dienit and respectful during 'her term of service. It the applicant does not suit, the card is returned with “not satisfac- tory." which indicates that other appli- cants may be sent. No matter how great the emergency, the new mistress cannot expect her maid for one week, for the girl must give her present employer that length or time :to fill 'her place. The law protects '-alike the employer and the employed. The rights of the maid include a comfortable room and Her card is placed on file, and the position she offers is posted in a con- spicuous place on a blackboard. Men and women servants in want or worlg examine these cards, and when they decide upon applying for any position. submit their recommendations to the bureau for examination. If these are satisfactory, the applicant receives a card to the prospective employer, avail. able for one day only. Should the lady hire the servant, she fills up the card with a list of the du- ties, wages and terms of service agreed upon, and returns it to the bureau, where it is carefully filed for future reference it necessary. 1 Which is alwayn a present and insistent one to the housekeeper in this country. in Norway has been settled to the apparent satisfaction both 0: mistress and o: maid. One country. however, can seldom adopt with success the customs of another. How ttar the Norwegian servant sys- tem would suit our tastes may be Judged to some extent by an examina- tion of the plan pursued in Norway. In places like Bergen, Christiania. and other large cities, the municipal government takes entire charge or the matter. There is a central employment bureau under municipal control, and twice each yearâ€"once in summer and once in winterâ€"dissatisfied servants can look out for a new master and mistress, and dissatisfied employers can seek to improve their service. The bureau is opened for one week, and the mistress who wants a maid can go to it, fill in «a form stating her require- ments and the wages she is willing to pay, and then leave all the rest to the bureau.
